Author: Lois Tverberg
Product code: B496
How a Jewish Perspective Can Transform Your Understanding
What if you could sit down beside Jesus as he explained the Bible to you? What life-changing insights might emerge?
Vast treasures await us when we read the Scriptures as a native, through the eyes of one of Jesus`s first-century Jewish disciples. Combining careful research with engaging prose, Lois Tverberg acts as a master guide, transporting us across the cultural divide between our world and that of the Bible.
As we begin to understand "how the Bible thinks," our own thinking will be transformed as well, and we will be able to approach God and the stories and teaching of Scripture with fresh insight. By opening our eyes to the way Middle Eastern people would have understood Jesus, Lois Tverberg takes us on a journey that will deepen our love of this very Jewish book, enriching our lives in the process.
"This excellent book unfolds so many valuable truths in the Sciptures that are often ignored or misunderstood. Lois Tverberg is a trustworthy guide whose insighful discoveries provide a delightful appetiser to some of the most exciting passages in the Old Testament.
I`m recommending it to everyone I know." Todd Bolen, professor of biblical studies, The Master`s University.
