Is it possible to have the wrong Jesus? Bible critics and scholars are talking about the difference between the Jesus Christ of Christianity and the historical Jesus. But who is the historical Jesus? It turns out that Jesus is not a one-size-fits-all mystic. He wasn’t a Christian either. Jesus was a Jew."
"King of the Jews Resurrecting the Jewish Jesus" is a timely, well written book that takes the Scriptural record seriously. In the recent hazy smog of liberal re-interpretations of the person of Yeshua, Lancaster's work is a very much welcomed and needed breath of fresh air. Locating Yeshua in His 1st Century Jewish setting, this work paints a graphic picture of our Messiah Who was, Who is, and Who is to come. D. Thomas Lancaster, author of Restoration and The Mystery of the Gospel: Jew and Gentile, wrote this to “defend our Master” from liberal scholars and conservative Christians who both misrepresent Yeshua by ignoring His Jewishness.
While stripping back centuries of cultural misinterpretations, Lancaster reveals the historical, Jewish Jesus in vivid new strokes and colors that fire the heart and deepen devotion to Him. King of the Jews digs into the history and literature of early Judaism to demonstrate the authenticity of the Gospels and to dispel today’s errant re-interpretations of Jesus.
Not just another book about Jesus, this thought provoking, fun-to-read journey into the world of the Bible is guaranteed to change how you think about Jesus while affirming the historical basis for faith in the King of the Jews.
