Christ and Israel

Adolph Saphir is the "best Bible teacher" you've never heard of -- but Spurgeon himself regarded his contemporary so. Though a prolific writer in his lifetime, the lectures contained in this book were collected and published posthumously by Saphir's protege and fellow Messianic Jew, David Baron. These lectures tell his remarkable story, and mine through the depths Saphir carved in the very Word he fell in love with as a young man. He calls to us even still to not forget the Everlasting Covenant, to not fall ignorant to its enduring controversy, and to bear the burden of the prophets and apostles. As he so well reflected, "Behold, Jesus Christ still weeping over Jerusalem with the eyes of Paul." May Christ and Israel illuminate the mystery of the ages in your own eyes, that you may weep the same. -- Back cover. Although he spent most of his life serving in the context of the Christian Church, Dr. Adolph Saphir never forgot the biblical mandate to reach his own people, the Jews, nor did he lose his deep desire to see them receive salvation through Jesus, their promised Messiah. This collection of highly charged and focused lectures challenges the Church to reach out to the Jewish nation with the gospel. Not only is the Church commanded to do so, argues Dr. Saphir, but loving and witnessing to the Jews will only bring blessing on their own lives. Clearly affirming his position as a pre-millennialist, Dr. Saphir provides a detailed scriptural basis for Jewish evangelism, and with the benefit of his own wide experience he gives the reader practical tools for accomplishing this task. Perhaps most importantly, the author causes the reader to examine his or her own heart. Do we see only the sinfulness of the Jews, and none of their own sufferings? Do we ignore the fact that we are guilty of the same sins? Christ and Israel is a classic for all times, a must-have volume for anyone who has ever considered Jewish evangelism. -- https://www.themillennialkingdom.org.uk/
