The Future Restoration of Israel: A Response to Supersessionism

by Stanley E. Porter, Alan E. Kurschner (Editor)

This volume is the most extensive of its kind as a major set of collected essays from a wide range of scholars on the question of the promises of God to Israel. These essays put forward the position that unconditional promises were given to Israel, which have not been fulfilled in the church or any other entity. At the consummation, there will be a continuing role for the Jews, realized through their national and territorial hope of a restored-redeemed Israel. This volume contains an eclectic group of contributors who have reached this position from various approaches to interpretation. The essays exhibit both positive argumentation and engagement with supersessionist literature.

Reviews

[Zach Hollifield · Rating 5 out of 5]

It’s hard for me to imagine reading these essays and continuing to hold to a supersessionism/replacement theology perspective on Israel and the Church.
