Reasoning Together: A Personal Account of Isaiah Chapters 1-12 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781950734092)

Harold Mozell, being from a Jewish home in New York, Long Island in particular, was given many opportunities to consider whether Yeshua, Jesus, was indeed the long-awaited Jewish Messiah. Of course there were serious cultural, social, and historical obstacles to consider when making such a decision. In this work, Harold has delved into a study of the first twelve chapters of the Book of the Prophet Isaiah with the hope of explaining to his family and friends why he has chosen such a divergent path. Reasoning Together is not only a daily devotional but also an engaging autobiography where his life's experiences are interwoven into the fabric of the text, filled with Jewish humor and also sincere, practical advice for the inquiring reader.

Harry has done an enjoyable and inspired study of the early chapters of the Book of Isaiah, presenting a refreshing, conservative, accurate view of the prophet Isaiah's message about the Messiah and the Messianic Age to come. Harry's Bible knowledge and clear theological thinking come through his entire commentary. He deals well with the theological problems that come up in the text and also explains well the messianic passages that speak of Yeshua (Jesus) as the coming Messiah. He uses personal stories and illustrations to make the Scriptures come alive and apply to our everyday lives. I highly recommend reading this work.

Harry has been such an important part of my own life and journey in the faith. We met in New Jersey in the early 1970s [when] I was in Bible college and started a ministry on the Fairleigh Dickinson University campus...I know the commentators that Harry used to develop his study, as we were both fellow Talbot Seminary students and flowed in the same theological streams....The book did not drag for one moment as it is written in a conversational and heartfelt style so that the reader does not get overwhelmed by Hebrew terms or theological issues but rather comes face to face with the underlying principles [of] Isaiah...For many years, Harry and I often sang together a popular messianic song entitled Behold God Is My Salvation as we toured together with the musical group, Messiah's Shofar. The song is based on the text found in Isaiah 12:2 -"Behold, God is my salvation, I will trust and not be afraid; For the LORD GOD is my strength and song, And He has become my salvation." What a joy it is to know the Lord, who forgives our sins and grants the free gift of everlasting life. He gives to us His Holy Spirit, Who leads us into a deeper understanding of the Bible. God did not leave us without a guidebook!...This book makes a great devotional tool and discipleship "manual" for new believers or those who are getting serious about studying the Old Testament scriptures.

Isaiah can be a daunting book for many. Harry has taken his personal experiences and combined them with the study of Isaiah, making it easy to understand and humorous and, in so doing, leaving the reader wanting more of the Word...Harry writes, "In fact, you cannot understand the New unless you understand the Old, and the Old Testament writings are fulfilled in the New"....Jeremiah 9:23-24 states that God is pleased when we understand and know Him, and in that He delights. Studying the Old Covenant is vital to our knowledge and understanding of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and the God of all who believe...The Book of Isaiah is wonderful and filled with the wonder and holiness of the LORD. Harry has given us a way to make it a little more personal. Enjoy!
