Was Jesus a radical Innovator—or a divine Restorer? When Jesus, known to His people as Yeshua, came on the scene in first-century Israel, His hearers weren’t surprised by His message, but by His authority. They didn’t see Him as a revolutionary teacher, but as a reformer of the man-made “commandments” that had been added to the Torah—like all of the prophets who came before Him to correct the Jewish people and draw them back to God. His claims to be the Messiah created a divide among the Jewish people, between those who accepted and those who rejected His divinity.Too many modern Christians believe Jesus came to end Judaism and begin something new, called Christianity. But this misses the point by divorcing Yeshua’s message from its context in the Jewish faith.Rabbi Matt Rosenberg of Restoration in Seattle, Washington, is a leader in the Messianic movement and has a passion for helping Jew and Gentile alike understand the message of Yeshua. As a second-generation Messianic rabbi with a Gentile mother, Matt understands the struggles, questions, and general “messiness” that accompany merging Jewish traditions and Christian customs with the scriptural and historical Yeshua.In this thoughtfully researched and lovingly presented book, Rabbi Rosenberg explains how to:Understand the Jewishness of Jesus and how it impacts believers then and nowAppreciate the Bible as one book, not two separate testamentsMend the misunderstandings between Jewish and Gentile believersAsk sincere questions and avoid clichéd answers in an honest search for truthIntegrate the Jewish influence on the ordinances of communion and baptismJewish and Gentile believers alike will glean deeper understanding from Jesus Never Said Anything New, as Rabbi Rosenberg builds the case for why the Jewishness of Jesus is as relevant for Christians and Jews today as it was two thousand years ago. Discovering Yeshua apart from all of the trappings of Western culture will build your faith and challenge your walk with the unchanging God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob!
