Reader Reviews
Dr. Moseley's volume is a well written, thorougly documented, understandable work with an important message: one cannot understand the Gospels or the early church with precision unless one enters into the Jewish roots of the Christian faith. Besides being a true scholar and theologian, Dr. Moseley also serves as a pastor, and his pastoral experience has probably contributed toward his ability to explain complex thoughts with clarity and precision. The book is divided into nine chapters, my favorite being the second, "Jewish Idioms in the Teachings of Jesus." This chapter opens up several Gospel portions and alone is worth the purchase price of the book. Whether or not you agree with the author on every point, this volume will expose you to the Jewish roots of the Christian faith while also opening up a number of Gospel or New Testament passages. As a pastor of over twenty years and a diligent student of the Word (who values good interpretational principles), I say this book is a must for pastors, theologians, or serious laymen. This is by no means the "same old same old." Go for it.
