Are you or someone you love desperate for a miracle? As witnessed through Scripture, the God who was and is and is to come has been performing miracles from the beginning of time—so you can trust that Jesus wants to do something miraculous in your life today.

In this follow-up to his book Mysteries of the Messiah, Rabbi Jason Sobel dives deep into Scripture, biblical culture, and ancient texts to help you better understand the truths and the power behind God’s miracles, and to increase your faith that Jesus can perform miracles in your life. 

By taking a deeper look at Yeshua’s miracles, Rabbi Jason reveals promises for all Christ followers based on miracles throughout Scripture:

  • Jesus takes the ordinary and turns it into something extraordinary, because He wants you to live out of His overflow (He turned water into wine).
  • Jesus wants to renew you so that He can do something new in you (He revealed to Nicodemus the miracle of rebirth).
  • You can stop wandering aimlessly or feeling stuck in your current situation, but instead experience abundant life and healing (He healed the man at the Pool of Bethesda).
  • God wants to bless you abundantly so you, in turn, can bless others and sow into His kingdom (Jesus multiplied the loaves and fish).

 

As you go on this journey with Rabbi Jason, a Messianic Jew, he is praying that God will lead you to new insights and breakthroughs in your life. And as God reveals Himself to you in a fresh and powerful way, you will be filled with a sense of His presence and shalom.

Rabbi Jason Sobel is the founder of Fusion Global, a ministry that seeks to bring people into the full inheritance of the faith by connecting treasures of “the old and the new.” Rabbi Jason’s voice is authentic, being raised in a Jewish home, and qualified by years of diligent academic work, he received his rabbinic ordination from the UMJC (Union of Messianic Jewish Congregations) in 2005. He has a B.A. in Jewish Studies (Moody) and an M.A. in Intercultural Studies (Southeastern Seminary). He is a sought-after speaker and the author of BreakthroughAligning with God’s Appointed TimesMysteries of the Messiah, and coauthor with Kathie Lee Gifford of New York Times bestsellers The Rock, the Road, and the Rabbi and The God of the Way.

    Currently I'm leaving aside any discussion on the author or his continuationist ideas, this review is about the book. While there is some good theology and history here, what Sobel attempts to do is tie a lot of saying, allusions, and typologies from the Old Testament into the New Testament. The biggest issue that when Sobel is attempting to tie them together he tends to just make the assertion without actually providing proof that we should view the link or better yet, that the original authors, audience, or speakers would be doing the linking. Discussion on the importance of Jesus doing His first miracle at a wedding is linked as importance to the original created order - but how? Other than the assertion there is no direct link to the first miracle being at a wedding. Some of the worst attempts to link ideas is through kabal-like numerology in counting Hebrew words which can be a thing however, in things like his discussion of John 3, Sobel asserts Hebrew letter numbering when the original text was in Greek. Where is the discussion that we should take the original language, translate it into Hebrew, and then take the importance of the number scale into consideration? Is this what Jesus wants to highlight when He's talking in John 3? There is also a focus on using Yeshua for Jesus and implementing Hebrew terminology throughout the book. This seems more like brand focusing than what's necessary. However, I will say there isn't anything outright heretical here. There is some good points made about faith and sanctification (again, I'm leaving any discussion of continuations out of the discussion and only focusing on the book). More focus could have been done of staying within the Old Testament to show the linking that Sobel is attempting to do. If you're looking for something along those lines G.K. Beale's Handbook on the New Testament Use of the Old Testament: Exegesis and Interpretation is a good introductory text into that. I wouldn't recommend this one. Final Grade - D
