It is inarguable that few names are as well known in the world as the name of Jesus, but who was he, really? There are many worthy commentaries of the Gospels in existence, but most of them do not seek out to present Jesus as he appeared on Earth—during his early life, in his culture, and among his own Jewish people. What happened over the ages that caused the world to begin to see Jesus as a son of Greece instead of an observant Jew? What have we lost by seeing his life and work out of context? Presenting Jesus, the Son of Israel – a Jewish Commentary on the Gospels reintroduces us to the true Jesus, whose life’s mission was to enlighten those around him and to bring them closer to the almighty Creator of the Universe. Volume 1 of this commentary explores the conception, uncovers the true dialogue about the virgin birth and reveals the incredible unknown life of Jesus the child. Who were these mysterious shepherds, and why were they unlike all the other shepherds? Were the Wise Men really Babylonian Sorcerers? How did they recognize the birth of the King of the Jews? What is this undeniable connection Jesus has to the Feast of Tabernacles, and why are the Gospels so silent regarding his Jewish education? We meet John the Baptist and discover how his message was skewed by early interpreters, and see how in some ways Jesus seems to relive the history of the Nation of Israel. Presenting Jesus, the Son of Israel – a Jewish Commentary on the Gospels answers all these questions and brings to light the beautiful intricacies of early Judaism and the effect they had on the life of Jesus, whose existence and purpose changed the world in a way in which no other has ever done since.
