Jesus the Jewish Theologian
by Dr. Brad H. Young
"Jesus the Jewish Theologian establishes Jesus firmly within the context of first-century Judaism and shows how understanding Jesus' Jewishness is crucial for interpreting the New Testament and for understanding the nature of the Christian faith. Insights from Jewish literature, archeology, and tradition hep modern readers place Jesus within his original context. Particular attention is given to the Jewish roots of Jesus' teaching concerning the Kingdom of God"
I'm about halfway through this book and although in the beginning it is a slow read, and a little dry, as I have read onward, I have come to appreciate the depth of understanding and picture this book has brought to my understanding of the teachings of Jesus.
This is a two thumbs up recommendation.
