In recent years, Christians everywhere are rediscovering the Jewish roots of their faith. Every year at Easter time, many believers now celebrate Passover meals (known as Seders) seeking to understand exactly what happened at Jesus' final Passover, the night before he was crucified. Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist shines fresh light on the Last Supper by looking at it through Jewish eyes.

Over the past hundred years, scholars have attacked the historical truth of the Gospels and argued that they were originally anonymous and filled with contradictions. In The Case for Jesus, Brant Pitre taps in to the wells of Christian scripture, history, and tradition to ask and answer a number of different questions, including: If we don't know who wrote the Gospels, how can we trust them? How are the four Gospels different from other Gospels, such as the lost Gospel of "Q" and the Gospel of Thomas?

The path of following Jesus is an ancient and storied spiritual tradition. Yet many believers are not familiar with the three major forms of prayer and the three stages of spiritual growth that exist to bring them closer to God. In his most personal book yet, Brant Pitre, PhD, draws on the riches of the Bible, the words of Jesus, and the writings of mystics across the centuries to shed light on the mystery - and wonder - of the spiritual life.

Story
Most Christians are familiar with the Apostle Paul's teaching that Christ is the "Bridegroom" and the Church is the "Bride." But what does this really mean? And what would ever possess Paul to compare the death of Christ to the love of a husband for his wife? If you would have been at the Crucifixion, with Jesus hanging there dying, is that how you would have described it? How could a first-century Jew like Paul, who knew how brutal Roman crucifixions were, have ever compared the execution of Jesus to a wedding?

Bergsma reveals how this Jewish sect directly influenced the beliefs, sacraments, and practices of early Christianity and offers new information on how Christians lived their lives, worshiped, and eventually went on to influence the Roman Empire and Western civilization.

Angels and saints. Catholics tend to think of them as different from the rest of us. They're cast in plaster or simpering on a holy card, performing miracles with superhero strength, or playing a harp in highest heaven.
Yet they are very near to us in every way. In this lively audiobook, Scott Hahn dispels the false notions and urban legends people use to keep the saints at a safe distance. The truth is that Jesus Christ has united heaven and earth in a close communion. Drawing deeply from Scripture, Dr. Hahn shows that the hosts of heaven surround the earthly Church as a "great cloud of witnesses".

Marcellino D'Ambrosio dusts off what might have been just dry theology to bring you the exciting stories of great heroes such as Ambrose, Augustine, Basil, Athanasius, John Chrysostom, and Jerome. These brilliant, embattled, and sometimes eccentric men defined the biblical canon, hammered out the Creed, and gave us our understanding of sacraments and salvation. It is they who preserved the rich legacy of the early Church for us.

In Reasons to Believe, Scott Hahn, a convert to Catholicism, explains the "how and why" of the Catholic faith - drawing from Scripture, his own struggles, and those of other converts, as well as from everyday life and even natural science. Hahn shows that reason and revelation, as well as nature and the supernatural, are not opposed to one another; rather, they offer complementary evidence that God exists. He is someone, and He has a personality, a personal style, that is discernable and knowable.

Of all things Catholic, there is nothing that is so familiar as the Mass. With its unchanging prayers, the Mass fits Catholics like their favorite clothes. Yet most Catholics sitting in the pews on Sundays fail to see the powerful supernatural drama that enfolds them. Pope John Paul II described the Mass as "Heaven on Earth," explaining that what "we celebrate on Earth is a mysterious participation in the heavenly liturgy."

Story
As Catholics, we believe in the resurrection of the body. We profess it in our creed. We're taught that to bury and pray for the dead are corporal and spiritual works of mercy. We honor the dead in our Liturgy through the rite of Christian burial. We do all of this, and more, because when Jesus Christ took on flesh for the salvation of our souls he also bestowed great dignity on our bodies. In Hope to Die: The Christian Meaning of Death and the Resurrection of the Body, Scott Hahn explores the significance of death and burial from a Catholic perspective.

In The Bible Is a Catholic Book, Jimmy Akin shows how the Bible cannot exist apart from the church. In its origins and its formulation, in the truths it contains, in its careful preservation over the centuries, and in the prayerful study and elucidation of its mysteries, Scripture is inseparable from Catholicism. This is fitting, since both come from God for our salvation. If you're a Catholic who sometimes gets intimidated by the Bible, The Bible Is a Catholic Book will help you better understand and take pride in this gift that God gave the world through the church.

Publisher's Summary
“Brant Pitre is one of the most compelling theological writers on the scene today.” (Bishop Robert Barron)
Best-selling author of Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist casts new light on the Virgin Mary, illuminating her role in the Old and New Testaments.
Are Catholic teachings on Mary really biblical? Or are they the "traditions of men"? Should she be called the "Mother of God", or just the mother of Jesus? Did she actually remain a virgin her whole life, or do the "brothers of Jesus" refer to her other children? By praying to Mary, are Catholics worshiping her? And what does Mary have to do with the quest to understand Jesus?
In Jesus and the Jewish Roots of Mary, Dr. Pitre takes listeners step-by-step from the Garden of Eden to the Book of Revelation to reveal how deeply biblical Catholic beliefs about Mary really are. Dr. Pitre uses the Old Testament and ancient Judaism to unlock how the Bible itself teaches that Mary is in fact the new Eve, the Mother of God, the Queen of Heaven and Earth, and the new Ark of the Covenant.
Critic Reviews
“Mystified by the way Catholics speak about Mary? Join the club! But if you - like me - have longed for a book that makes a good biblical case for Catholic teachings relating to Mary, then look no further! Brant Pitre has produced an absolutely riveting, page-turning read, surely the most thought-provoking and stimulating I have ever read on the subject.” (Chris Tilling, graduate tutor and senior lecturer in New Testament studies)
“I did not think a single book could be written about Mary that would excite and unite Catholic and Protestant readers - scholars, clergy and laity alike. What Pitre does with the Bible and Marian typology is clear and compelling. A joy to read, this is the best biblical study of Mary I have ever read. A true masterpiece.” (Scott Hahn, author of The Lamb's Supper and The Fourth Cup)
"Brant Pitre takes important theological truths and makes them not only interesting, but exciting. This book will revolutionize your understanding of the most important woman in history." (Jennifer Fulwiler, author of One Beautiful Dream)

This book is still digesting in my mind and spirit. As a Protestant, I’ve always wondered about the Catholic veneration and beliefs about Mary. I have been on the edge of my seat listening to this book. Now, I just want to know more about this subject. Whatever You want Lord Jesus. Amen.

Outstanding - I highly recommend this book
I was raised by two Evangelical minister parents. So dinner-table discussion consisted of a lot of theology and Bible stories, etc. But there was very little about Mary, ever.
Fast forward, and later in life, I went through RCIA to become Catholic. One of the things that was a bit of a hindrance of understanding was the level of veneration/adoration Mary gets in the Catholic church. I had no frame of reference for it. There was so little in the Bible itself, or so I thought, and since I hadn't been raised with any lineage back to the Early Church Fathers or anything like that, it was so new.
So when I ran across this book, I was intrigued, because I LOVE diving into the Jewish roots of Christianity already, and to hear that there could be a greater understanding of Mary by looking at the Jewish roots, I was like "how in the world can they do that?" -- and boy was I pleasantly surprised!
This book has so much MEAT in it. It is so well-done. So well researched. So well laid out. I can't recommend it highly enough. Whether you're Catholic, Protestant, Evangelical, or just curious, THIS IS A GREAT BOOK.
I come away from it wanting to listen again because there was so much I never knew, and never saw before, and now my eyes have been opened. Thank you.

Well reasoned well received
The author does a nice job describing Catholic Christian beliefs concerning Mary, Mother of God, and defending them against most of the more common attacks, The author demonstrates how so-called ‘un-biblical’, ‘controversial’ positions held by the Catholic Church are founded on Old Testament scriptures and widely (e.g., universally ) embraced traditions of the early Church. You may not believe what the Catholic Christian Church believes about Mary because of things you’ve learned or heard. The author’s clear, concise reasons for these beliefs are shared in ways that are open, kind, educational, and engaging.

My favorite book about Mary, Mother of God
I loved this book for the thorough and articulate unpacking of the many layers of the mysteries of the Virgin Mary. Now I understand more clearly my own unintentional relationship with her. She sought me out and brought me back to her son, in a way I have never known before. And now I can't get enough of her. So glad I found this book. Looking forward to reading more books by this author.

Know your Mother
Truly a classic! This book was so well researched and then so well written, it will keep you spellbound and wondering, how can I be Catholic and not know these things about my spiritual mother. And the more you read the more you want to keep reading to fill your hunger for what he is showing you about Holy Mary, the new Eve, the new arc, the new exciting mother you only thought you knew.
Well worth the read!

Solid Biblical Teaching To End Misunderstanding of
At last, scriptural confirmation of what the Catholic church has been teaching since the beginning about Mary in a way that protestants can relate to. Hopefully this very important biblical exposition will open the way to understand why Mary is held in such high esteem and why she adds imeasurably to a full Christian life.

A masterpiece!
This is the first book I have reviewed with that description, and considering it's genre, that's saying something. Every part of this book took all the questions I had, have had or had not yet anticipated and answered them. The content is meticulously researched and the writer cites all his sources making clear links, with no ambiguity. This book has been a true gift, and I am delighted to have found it. I have been on a journey to fully understand the Catholicism I grew up in, and can't seem to walk away from, so that I can fully immerse myself into all the aspects of the Catholic church without reservation. Until now, the subject of Mary is one I had never been able to explain, defend or articulate. Now I know, now I can confidently finally call her my mother with the full understanding of why I do it and who she really is. Thank you Dr Pitre. The narrator is an absolute joy to listen to.....he believes the content and he engages you, as he takes you on this in depth learning journey. If you, like me have questions, or just need clear demonstrated truths that are biblically, culturally and historically sound regarding the role of Mary in the Catholic church, this book is one NOT to miss.

Great book defending the Church's reverence of Mary. My one problem is that there is no pdf or list of biblical references that listeners can refer to.
