I always chuckle when I read that realizing that Jesus was a Jewish rabbi and that the early Christians were actually practicing Jews until about the 5the Century was a startling revelation to someone. Duh, it's basic pre-school Sunday School. However, I am fast learning that not every church or Sunday school teaches that fact. And, I think, after reading this book, that we need those people who are surprised because then if they are thinking students of Christianity, they go out and do some research and write very interesting books of which this book is a prime example. This is a well-written informative book about several of God's blessings that are recorded in the Old Testament and are still valid today but today's Christians don't really pay attention to them because basically we tend to shun anything that is "Jewish tradition". Mr. Huch's view is that we could be so much more, receive so many more of God's blessings, if we just understood what these traditions were and incorporated them into our livestyle. He has selected several blessings and has explained how they still relate to Christianity and how we can add a Christian slant to them. In the chapter about the Tallit, he also explains how words and word pictures that were automatically known to Jesus' audience would not make sense now unless we knew the Jewish tradition. For instance, the tassles at the corners of the Tallit have a blue thread in them which represents the complete Word of God and were called "wings". So, wrapping an ill person in a tallit is wrapping them in the Word of God and miracles will happen. It also explains Jesus' reference to gathering people under his wings. The last part of the book is about the seven Holy feasts and how to celebrate them and why they would bring meaning and peace to our lives. Many of his ideas are based on Ephesians 2:11-22 where we as Gentiles are no longer strangers to Judiasm but rather members. That God will not be able to save the world until we remove the wall between Judism and Christianity as in verses 20-21. It's a very interesting concept, he has some strong arguments for it, and this book is full of very interesting facts and explanations of Christian/Judish traditions that will make your Christian walk more meaningful whether you follow it or just gain some insight.

I cried from the first chapter to the last. This is good for anyone wondering why gentile Christians should endeavor to keep the Jewish law.

Excellent source of information on the Torah and why we should gain knowledge about our original ancestors beliefs and traditions. A must read for anyone who wants to know more about the land of Israel.

This was a surprisingly good introduction to the Jewish feasts. I pre-judged this book to be a bit corny, and it was in some places, but overall very satisfied with its contents. As a Christian pastor, discipleship and spiritual formation are always on my mind. I have been intrigued the last 5 years or so ago about the Jewish roots of the faith, and what I feel is a grave misunderstanding of the Jewish Scriptures in much of the current Christian expression. This book helps you see that God has already put the path of discipleship and spiritual formation in the Old Testament! Need a spritz to your faith? Consider what Jesus and the disciples and Paul did, and had been doing for 1500 years. Great small group materiel.

The unknown blessings revealed

Pastor Larry explains why we should follow the Torah, and how to do it.
As Christians, we need can live a life of supernatural miracles if we learn and understand the truth.
You will learn a lot about your roots and how to break the curses and protect your family, your neighborhood, your city, your county, your state and your country from the wiles of the enemy of your soul.

Me sirvió bastante para entender temas que no se abordan en la Iglesia acerca de lo que nos une con el pueblo Judío, sin duda alguna una de mis grandes lecturas de este año 🙏
Dios les bendiga

Leaves plenty of room for improvement

The most overwhelming word is “prosperity”. While God may grant that to those He wishes, the main aim Yeshua came to earth was to physically live out the two main commandments and teach us to do likewise. When He gives His final orders in Mattityahu 28:18-20, not one word of prosperity is mentioned. It is rather a pity that the Evangelicals hang their doctrine on that and what they call “rapture”.

Like someone else mentioned, if this is your very first introduction to the fact that the roots of Christianity lie in the Hebrew culture, then I guess it's OK. But the author doesn't delve deeply enough in these important issues, in my opinion. There are other authors who will give the whole truth, who are walking this walk, not just writing books about it. This book left much to be desired and didn't tell the whole truth many times.

I’m not going to read this one again. It had some interesting links between Christianity and Judaism. But it had enough health and wealth to turn me off. It was published in 2009 and it didn’t age well.

very interesting...did you know Jesus was Jewish? why have we walked away from the very things he taught?
