Book Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist

Download or read book Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist written by Brant Pitre and published by Image. This book was released on 2011-02-15 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A revelatory exploration of the Jewish roots of the Last Supper that seeks to understand exactly what happened at Jesus’ final Passover. “Clear, profound and practical—you do not want to miss this book.”—Dr. Scott Hahn, author of The Lamb’s Supper and The Fourth Cup Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist shines fresh light on the Last Supper by looking at it through Jewish eyes. Using his in-depth knowledge of the Bible and ancient Judaism, Dr. Brant Pitre answers questions such as: What was the Passover like at the time of Jesus? What were the Jewish hopes for the Messiah? What was Jesus’ purpose in instituting the Eucharist during the feast of Passover? And, most important of all, what did Jesus mean when he said, “This is my body… This is my blood”? To answer these questions, Pitre explores ancient Jewish beliefs about the Passover of the Messiah, the miraculous Manna from heaven, and the mysterious Bread of the Presence. As he shows, these three keys—the Passover, the Manna, and the Bread of the Presence—have the power to unlock the original meaning of the Eucharistic words of Jesus. Along the way, Pitre also explains how Jesus united the Last Supper to his death on Good Friday and his Resurrection on Easter Sunday. Inspiring and informative, Jesus and the Jewish Roots of the Eucharist is a groundbreaking work that is sure to illuminate one of the greatest mysteries of the Christian faith: the mystery of Jesus’ presence in “the breaking of the bread.”

Book Rabbi Jesus

    Book Details:
  • Author : Bruce Chilton
  • Publisher : Image
  • Release : 2002-05-14
  • ISBN : 0385505442
  • Pages : 354 pages

Download or read book Rabbi Jesus written by Bruce Chilton and published by Image. This book was released on 2002-05-14 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the Gospels, interpretations of the life of Jesus have flourished for nearly two millennia, yet a clear and coherent picture of Jesus as a man has remained elusive. In Rabbi Jesus, the noted biblical scholar Bruce Chilton places Jesus within the context of his times to present a fresh, historically accurate, and revolutionary examination of the man who founded Christianity. Drawing on recent archaeological findings and new translations and interpretations of ancient texts, Chilton discusses in enlightening detail the philosophical and psychological foundations of Jesus’ ideas and beliefs. His in-depth investigation also provides evidence that contradicts long-held beliefs about Jesus and the movement he led. Chilton shows, for example, that the High Priest Caiaphas, as well as Pontius Pilate, played a central role in Jesus’ execution. It is, however, Chilton’s description of Jesus’ role as a rabbi, or "master," of Jewish oral traditions, as a teacher of the Cabala, and as a practitioner of a Galilean form of Judaism that emphasized direct communication with God that casts an entirely new light on the origins of Christianity. Seamlessly merging history and biography, this penetrating, highly readable book uncovers truths lost to the passage of time and reveals a new Jesus for the new millennium.

Book The Jewish Background of the Lord s Prayer

Download or read book The Jewish Background of the Lord s Prayer written by Brad Young and published by . This book was released on 2017-10-16 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gospels give abundant evidence of the centrality of prayer in Jesus' own life, from his baptism to his crucifixion. Today, a new generation of disciples is learning, as did the disciples of old, the necessity and the power of prayer. We struggle with prayer, as did they. We, too, ask, "Lord, teach us to pray."Can the time-worn and perhaps overly-familiar words of the "Lord's Prayer" be more than a kind of spiritual pacifier for us today? Are there hidden in these simple words concepts that canstimulate and challenge us? Happily, the answer to both questions is yes, as the reader of this booklet by Brad Young will discover. We believe that what is printed here merits the attention of Bible scholars, of clergy, and of serious lay persons.It beautifully illustrates the premise on which the Center for Judaic-Christian Studies is founded: that studying the Hebrew heritage of our faith and the Jewish background to the life and teachings of Jesus of Nazareth can substantially enhance the quality of our spiritual lives as believers.

Book The Origins of Jewish Prayers

Download or read book The Origins of Jewish Prayers written by Tzvee Zahavy and published by . This book was released on 2021-11-14 with total page 373 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I present here the results of my research of more than forty years into the origins of Jewish prayer in the first five centuries of the Common Era, known also as the epoch of early rabbinic Judaism, the time of the Mishnah and the Talmud, the era of the Tannaim and Amoraim, and the time of Jesus and early Christianity. I provide here my analysis of the textual evidence on the subject mainly from the books of the rabbis, the Mishnah, the Tosefta and the Talmud. I discuss in my book God's Favorite Prayers how difficult it is to recover the history of Jewish prayers, especially because the religious leaders who propounded them sought to convey the notion that the prayers are timeless, without visible origins. These studies are my conclusions over many years of research and study to present the origins of the greatest prayers of the Jewish people.

Book Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus

Download or read book Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus written by Lois Tverberg and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2012-03-06 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this ebook download of Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus, Lois Tverberg challenges readers to follow their Rabbi more closely by reexamining his words in the light of their Jewish context. Doing so will provide a richer, deeper understanding of his ministry, compelling us to live differently, to become more Christ-like. We'll begin to understand why his first Jewish disciples abandoned everything to follow him, to live out his commands. Our modern society, with its individualism and materialism, is very different than the tight-knit, family-oriented setting Jesus lived and taught in. What wisdom can we glean from his Eastern, biblical attitude toward life? How can knowing Jesus within this context shed light on his teachings for us today? In Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus we'll journey back in time to eavesdrop on the conversations that arose among the rabbis of Jesus' day, and consider how hearing Rabbi Jesus with the ears of a first-century disciple can bring new meaning to our faith. And we'll listen to Jewish thinkers through the ages, discovering how ideas that germinated in Jesus' time have borne fruit. Doing so will yield fresh, practical insights for following our Rabbi's teachings from a Jewish point of view.
