商品簡介
The coming of the Messiah the promise of redemption is perhaps Judaism's greatest gift to the world.
But it is a gift about which the world knows so little.
It has been overshadowed by Christian belief and
teaching, and as a result its Jewish significance has been
all but lost. To further complicate matters, Jewish messianic
teaching is enthralling, compelling, challenging,
exhilarating yet, up until now, woefully inaccessible.
The Messiah and the Jews will change that.
Rabbi Elaine Rose Glickman brings together, and
to life, this three-thousand-year-old tradition as never
before. Rather than simply reviewing the vast body of
Jewish messianic literature, she explores an astonishing
range of primary and secondary sources, explaining in
an informative yet inspirational way these teachings'
significance for Jews of the past and infuses them
with new meaning for the modern reader, both Jewish
and non-Jewish.
Truly unmatched in its range, scholarship and
insight and unique in its accessibility and engaging
style The Messiah and the Jews will capture the
attention of interested people of every background
and level of knowledge seeking wisdom, wonder
and above all hope.
