In the West, most of us Christians have grown up using names like Jesus, Old Testament, New Testament, and the Law, without realizing the real history behind these titles. Did you know that the name Jesus is less than four hundred years old and has no meaning? In what climate did this non-Jewish name appear in church history? Did you know that the Old/New Testament division was created by a church heretic who hated the Old Testament. We have also likely been raised with a subtle antisemitism beginning with Bible schools and seminaries that brush off the importance of the Hebrew language, of studying the language for the "layperson," and the importance of names in the Bible. Often there is a prejudice against rabbinic thinking and commentary of God's Word. So if we have a library of books about the Scriptures, we may have a disproportionate number of commentaries written by non-Jews. I've met enough pastors who only had one Jewish commentary, if any. As we are fed by very, what I call "Greekish" thinking, I've even met people who were upset to find out Jesus was a Jew, and his real name was Yeshua. Have you discovered that the New Testament, though written in Greek, is grounded in Hebrew thought? Did we forget which people group gave us the Scriptures? Many leaders of the church do not even know the place or role of the Jews in the end times as they believe they have no importance at all anymore. Did this lack of knowledge have anything to do with the holocaust? This book may be instrumental for today's church that it wakes up to some fundamental truths that we never knew or forgot. May this book be a blessing to you. Shalom, Leo
