The Rabbi Who Found Messiah: The Story of Yitzhak Kaduri and his prophecies of the end time

by Carl Gallups

Read the shocking story that the media have ignored and covered up.   In 2007, two Israeli news publications, Israel Today and News First Class reported that the most famous Rabbi in Israel's modern history, 108-year-old Yitzhak Kaduri, had left a cryptic death note revealing the name of the long-awaited Messiah.  Within a year after the rabbi's death, the note was reported to have been verified as authentic by some of Kaduri's closest followers and then placed on Kaduri's own website (Kaduri.net). The purported Kaduri message proclaimed that Messiah's name was Yehoshua, or Jesus.  Its significance shocked the religious world. Shortly thereafter the furor began. The note immediately disappeared from Kaduri's website. The media refused to report further upon the matter. The Kaduri family, and several others close to the Kaduri ministry, began to claim that the note was a forgery or a mere fabrication - a cruel joke.  Now, author, senior pastor, radio talk show host, and former law enforcement officer Carl Gallups, uses his biblical knowledge and journalistic and investigative skills to explore the matter inside and out. His thorough and balanced reporting of the documented facts of the case will astound you.  Messianic Rabbi Jonathan Cahn, author of The Harbinger, several renowned biblical experts, as well as former students of Kaduri's rabbinical training school weigh in on the case. Gallup's exciting detailed reporting reaches startling conclusions that will amaze you.  Mystical death-curses, visions of Messiah, an important world political figure under threat, religious leaders in shock, a cryptic death note, and more, this story is shocking, it is true and it is still unfolding.  Did Rabbi Kaduri actually see and identify the real Messiah?  From the publishers and the movie studio that brought you the best-selling documentary The Isaiah 9:10 Judgment comes the story of The Rabbi Who Found Messiah.

I understand more about the Jewish faith after reading this book. It makes sense why such a well renown Rabbi would make this declaration so mysteriously. Jesus is the Messiah! What an incredible story.

Disappointing. After hearing about this man and the excitement over his letter revealing the Messiah I was eager to read the story. Messianic Jewish people are of great interest to me. This book gave me my first glimpse into the mystical practices of Cabala. After seeing how anti Biblical those practices are it made me wonder why Christians are giving any credence to this mans revelation at all. I found the book repetitive.

This is a great story and I really appreciate the author's objectivity. However, it was hard to tell if the author was trying to be very thorough or just needed some "fluff" to fill the pages. Like I said, he remained objective and showed nearly every possible angle. This could be reduced to a magazine article and be just as effective.

Enjoy the book... The author gives you his theory and I believe that he is correct. The rabbi did not mention to anyone who his messiah was... he just wrote it down in a cryptic message... Book was exciting and informative on the rabbi point of view... could have been more exciting if the rabbi just told people when he had his visions.... and confirmed his viewpoints with his congregation ...but he didn't... and that leaves me with the big question WHY???

Good book

book was very good on the story of Yitzhak Kaduri and Ariel Sharon about the messiah I was kind of confused as to when he was talking about the coming of the messiah and it seemed to me he wasn't saying about the return of the messiah but the first coming seemed like he was sort of setting up the Jews to worship the antichrist and not follow the Christ of the bible

[Danilo Mijares · Rating 5 out of 5]

an eye opening book

Truly there is no doubt that Jesus is the Christ, the Only Savior of men. He died for our sins, but was resurrected to prove that what He experienced in the cross was not in vain. He will return for the second time to gather His elect and to establish His eternal kingdom.

I thought this book would be provocatively interesting, but really this rabbi's prophecies (to the discerning Christian) carry no weight. At worst, the "Messiah" Kaduri met sounds like an anti-Christ figure rather than a true Christ figure. I do find it interesting to see the world trends (how important this prophecy has been to Jews and Muslims), but I was hoping for more in this book.

[Bryan Vold · Rating 4 out of 5]

The book was very interesting. at first I was a little disappointed that Rabbi Kaduri was a practicer of Cabala, but this book gave a lot of information about Jewish though and history that was fascinating

Clean and informative read

This book was easy and enjoyable to read. it is interesting and provides a informative glance at the mystery surrounding the coming of the messiah from a Jewish perspective.

Very objective report on one of Israel's most respected religious leaders. Well documented. An interesting read.

Carl gallops rocks!

Most interesting, I learned a lot about Judaism. A well researched and documented study of rabbi kauri. You won't regret reading this book.

[Randy · Rating 5 out of 5]

I was excited about His vision before I read the book. When I got to the middle of the book I was a little concerned about the vision. Then after I finished the book I was excited again.

[Colleen Lahey · Rating 5 out of 5]

Extremely interesting read. A great book for every Christian to read.

6/10 talked about Rabbi Kaduri prophesy that yeshua or Jesus is the next Jewish messiah. Also talks a bit about other big Israeli and figures of other realign. Goes back and forth disproving and providing evidence for both Christian and Jewish beliefs. Conclusion evidence like psalm 22 is proof that Jesus is real messiah and that next time he comes back it will be to bring judgement and to rule as king of kings in the world

[Lee W. · Rating 4 out of 5]

I thoroughly enjoyed this book and had a hard time putting it down. Though I am not convinced that Rabbi Kaduri actually found Jesus of Nazareth, the eternal Son of God, and the Messiah of Israel—indeed the world—nonetheless the account is both fascinating and insightful.

Interesting account and discussion of an interesting man. I wish Mr. Gallups had taken a firmer position on the matter.

Kaduri's prophecies concerning the Messiah is decidedly false. Scripture, as well as time, have shown that. I am of the opinion the rabbi was deceived. Even so, God can use it for good.

i leaned more about jews

[Jodie M · Rating 3 out of 5]

I wholeheartedly disagree with the authors interpretation of the note but the book was fascinating and mostly written in facts rather than opinions. I learned a few things and enjoyed the story.

[Edy Gies · Rating 1 out of 5]

I did not like this book at all. First, it was very hard to follow and I honestly couldn't tell what the author was saying a good portion of the story. Also it talks about the death of Ariel Sharon signaling the coming of Christ (second coming), but - spoiler - Sharon died in 2014. The timeline skipped around a lot which was very frustrating. I was hoping for something like Seeking Allah Finding Jesus but it was nothing like that. I don't see how Yetzhak could have spent his long life following the Kabalistic teaching then come up with this wonderful prophecy that aligns with the Bible. I would definitely not recommend this book.

[Jacob O'connor · Rating 2 out of 5]

We have a really cool Jewish Christian who goes to our church. The guy is as wise as they come, and during pageant I love to grill him about everything under the sun. He was the first to tell me about this Rabbi, Yitzhak Kaduri, who caused quite a splash a few years ago by prophesying that the true Messiah is none other than Jesus. You can read the book for a full lowdown.

Having read it, I'm actually a bit disappointed. It always causes controversy when someone switches teams. For instance, it was an embarrassment to Christians when Bart Ehrman defected from the faith and began writing books critical of the Bible. On the flip side, I'm sure many atheists were annoyed when one of their champions, Antony Flew, changed his mind on the existence of God. The difference with both these examples is that they were able to offer reasons for their reversal. Rabbi Kaduri staked his claim based on revelation. I'm fine with that. After all, that's also how the Apostle Paul drew the same conclusion. Still, I would like to have seen the author wrestle with some of the deep-seeded differences between the two faiths and some of the obstacles the Jewish people have to considering Jesus as the Messiah.

[Bob · Rating 1 out of 5]

“The Rabbi Who Found Messiah” was disappointing.

The book is based on the assertion that Rabbi Yitzchak Kaduri wrote a note to be opened a year after his death which would reveal the name of the messiah. The existence of the note itself is in dispute, with many of Kaduri's closest disciples stating it's an outright forgery

Even if one assums that it's authentic, the note itself isn't conclusive. The note does not have the Messiah's name on it name explicitly; rather it contains a verse with the acronym for the Hebrew name for Joshua. Had Rabbi Kaduri wanted to unequivocally write that Jesus was the Messiah (as is the premise of the book), all he would have needed to do was add 4 Hebrew letters (Hebrew for `of Nazareth') or something to that affect to declare unambiguously which Joshua he was referring to.

Just as the reference to which Joshua is vague, the book is filled with many other ambiguous references and logical leaps of faith, mystical death-curses and cryptic mystical notes and the like.

[Joshua Morgan · Rating 1 out of 5]

This book goes no where. It is not a story about a Jew's journey toward Jesus Christ as Saviour, nor is it a presentation of anything useful. It starts & ends, literally, on the same question. I can only assume the author had nothing better to do with his time than to waste it on this.

[Ron Estrada]

Fascinating read!

I'm always skeptical of books like this. But the author did a great job of researching the facts and letting them speak for themselves. I pray that many will read it and come to know Jesus as their savior. Well done!

Don't recommend this book.

This took forever to get through. It is so thorough, but as a result, the detail detracts from the story.
