Jesus the Rabbi - Was He Orthodox?

Author: David Bivin

Product code: BT24

Many Christians still, if subconsciously, think of Jesus as a Gentile. To view him as a 1st century Orthodox teaching Rabbi can be a deep challenge and even shock to some. But this context is a step to understanding Him and His message more clearly.

Arguing that we can`t see Jesus correctly through the lens of centuries of western church theology and practice, David Bivin explores this subject out of deep knowledge and with great clarity.
