I really enjoyed this book! However, I think it requires some existing knowledge of the history of Messianic Judaism to really appreciate the life and contributions of Abram Poljak. This collection of writings are mostly culled from his various journals as he pioneered a kingdom and Israel focused Jewish Christianity in the 1930s-early 1960s. Many of the accounts related, opened up for me the nuances and dramas of Messianic Jewish history in pre-state and early Modern Israel. Important history for any Messianic Jew in the 21st century to learn from and be inspired by.
