The Holy Epistle to the Ephesians: Sermons from a Messianic Jewish Approach (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781941534960)

Most interpretations of Paul's Epistle to the Ephesians miss the point. They assume that Christ abolished the Torah to remove the "dividing wall" between Jews and Gentiles-erasing both identities and creating a neutral, merged being called the One New Man. In that reading, no one is Jewish, no one is Gentile-and no one is getting it right.

This book offers a radically different approach.

From Torah Club author D. Thomas Lancaster comes an easy-to-read yet deeply theological Messianic Jewish reading of Ephesians. Rather than erasing identities, Paul affirms them-showing that Gentiles turning to Israel's Messiah is a fulfillment of God's eternal plan, not a rejection of Jewish covenantal identity.

These teachings recover the epistle's original context, revealing a vision of unity through distinction. It's a message the church has missed-and one the world urgently needs to hear.
