Written by an Anglican minister, this book is "the journey of a man, challenged, I believe, by the Lord to take a close, deep look at the place of Israel in the purposes of God". (J.John)
In this book the author seeks to discover the answers to probing questions such as:
Are Jewish people still the 'chosen people'?
Why are some Christians so excited about Israel?
What does the Bible have to say about the covenants and the promised Messiah?
What does it mean to be 'join heirs' with Israel?
How do events in Israel today fit in with Biblical prophecy?
"This is the most user-friendly guide I know. If you want to know more about Israel - past, present and future - then I can think of no better resource. You simply cannot ignore the teaching of this book. It is simply the best around for both first time enquirers and long-term devotees." Dr Mark Stibbe
"I recommend this book to you with all my heart. Together we have studied, questioned, debated... perhaps it is no surprise that we have been so drawn to the story of a nation whose very name means 'he who struggles with God...'" Adrian Snell
"The role of the Land and People of Israel has continuously been neglected by most of Christendom. It has also been said that Israel is the missing link in systematic theology. The result is that the Church has often not only perpetrated an anti-Judaic polemic but has also failed to understand the significance of 'covenant'. This book contains the key to understanding God's continued purposes for both the Jewish people and the Church and is one of the most significant works on the subject." Rev Canon Andrew White
