Particular "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 Christian faith. Particular attention is given to the Jewish roots of Jesus' teaching concerning the kingdom of God.. That should come as no surprise to Jews or to Christians, although it often does.
Jesus grew from the soil of his people. In reading this book I was struck again and again with how Jesus' teachings were paralleled in my own tradition. Young's book is not intended to diminish Jesus' teaching, but to show its roots.
What emerges, however, is not "Jesus the Jewish theologian" in any Western, systematic sense. Rather, in Jesus, Dr.

I still think that one should read "Our Father Abraham; Jewish Roots of the Christian Faith" first as it lays the foundation for this and many other books like this. This book will definitely give you many things to think about and challenge the way you understand some of the things Jesus said. In particular I find that I must revisit Matthew 5: I find this quite exhilarating and I look forward to interacting with this text in a new way. Although I teach weekly and have now for several decades I desire to continue to learn and this is right up my alley, if you want to be stimulated to deeper study and are excited about learning and being challenged this book and this subject will do it.
And yes, this book like the others in this genre comes from a high view of scripture, a position of great reverence and conservative scholarship. Oct 03, Lisa Johnson rated it really liked it. Jesus the Jewish Theologian Author: Baker Academic My rating 4 out of 5 stars.

Some of what Brad shared were new insights that broadened my view and deepened my understanding of what Jesus spoke.
For me, it also helped remove some of my western thoughts to put the Bible back into its historical context as well as how the listeners would have understood what Jesus said. Of course, in some ways the author includes conjecture or assumptions as to what someone thought, but those I just read and took them as his opinion not necessarily as fact.

What made the book most enjoyable was discussing it with a friend; it was fun to see what each of us thought, understood, agreed with or disagreed with, and at times what challenged our long-standing views. I love books that challenge me to think, rethink and be able to defend why I believe what I do or be willing to adopt new views based on what I am learning.
One of the gifts my parents bestowed upon me was a love of learning. What Jesus bestowed on me was a love to draw nearer to Him. Just know that it will challenge you, excite you, ignite a fire for more understanding of the Master Jesus we follow! May 23, Matt rated it really liked it. Writing style is a bit dull and choppy, and the author is unnecessarily repetitive in some parts.
However, much of the extrabiblical parallels to Jesus' teaching in Jewish literature is fascinating and casts new light upon the teachings and life setting of Jesus and his contemporaries. In fact, several of these parallels seemingly clarify some oft debated teachings of Jesus, especially his instruction on divorce and remarriage. I found the chapters on "Controversy and Children," "Divorce and Adu Writing style is a bit dull and choppy, and the author is unnecessarily repetitive in some parts. Jewish New Testament Commentary.
