by Jonathan Bernis

, 2011

Raised in a traditional Jewish family, international television host Jonathan Bernis was taught from a young age that "Jews don't--and can't!--believe in Jesus." Yet in his study of the Bible, including the Torah, he found overwhelming evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really was the Jewish Messiah.
With warmth and transparency, Bernis talks about discovering Jesus in history, too, and how it was that the Jewish Yeshua became the Gentile Jesus. By presenting historic evidence that Jesus is Messiah and refuting common Jewish objections, Bernis gives Christians the knowledge and tools they need to share their Lord with their Jewish friends in a loving, effective way.

From the Back Cover

All of history hangs on the answer to one question:
Who is Jesus of Nazareth?

Raised in a traditional Jewish family, international television host Jonathan Bernis was taught from a young age that "Jews don't--and can't!--believe in Jesus." Yet in his study of the Scriptures, including the Torah, he found overwhelming evidence that Jesus of Nazareth really is the Jewish Messiah.

With warmth and transparency, Bernis shares his journey of discovering Jesus, how it changed his life and how he answers questions such as
· What do the prophets say about Jesus?
· How did Jewish Yeshua become Gentile Jesus?
· Is the New Testament anti-Semitic?
· Whatever happened to Judaism?

If you are a Jewish person seeking the truth about who Jesus really was and is, Bernis offers you loving evidence that counters common Jewish objections--and reveals a very different picture of Jesus than you may have been taught growing up.

If you are a Christian with Jewish friends, Bernis will equip you with the tools and knowledge to gently share your faith with them in an informed manner.

You will be challenged by what you read, but you may be even more surprised by what you discover.
