Refuting Rabbinic Objections to Christianity Messianic Prophecies edition by Eitan Bar Religion Spirituality eBooks Reviews

• I'm a Messianic believer. I strongly believe that the Tenach and the Apostolic writings prove without doubt that Yeshua is the Messiah. I strongly disagree with groups who work very hard to prove that Yeshua is not the Messiah. However, after an Orthodox Jew many years called me on what he perceived as my inappropriate methods in sharing Yeshua, I took another look at myself and my movement and decided that we weren't careful enough about our own ethics. From that point of view I now share my perceptions of this book by Eitan Bar.
  
  The book makes many allegations against famous and learned rabbis and other historical personages, but the book gives no citations to validate these comments. I note that in the Preface it is stated that the book was trying to take a "light" approach rather than making it an academic work. I decided to search validation of the references on my own which I did prior to writing this review.
  
  First, I disagree with the book’s approach. When one is making such important allegations against people, I believe that it's important to remember Gen 121-3. A false allegation can be very dangerous. I think that with the level of serious statements that are made in this book that the author would want to be assured that all references could be easily validated. In fact, I did some high level searching and could NOT validate all the allegations. One that stands out is the allegation against Rabbi Eyal Karim, a candidate to be chief rabbi of the IDF. It appears that the rabbi and his supporters deny the charge and that there is enough evidence to support his refutation. It's my opinion that the book violates a basic principle found in Prov 1817 by not providing references and citations and by not providing all the information to support another viewpoint of the allegations.
  
  Much of the author’s basic Biblical hermeneutic is good. However, in spite of the attempt to want to write a "light" book, I feel it's a mistake to forfeit citations that could support his evidence. Thus he's entered into a lashon hara situation that opens the book up to the charges of being no more than gossip and slander. This lack of putting a reputable face on our work as Messianic believers opens us up to great criticism from our critics and can appear to validate many of the criticisms against us that we are the ones that aren't openly honest in our presentations.
  
  I pray that in future works that the author will help me to find the sources of his information so I can in good conscience use his material to share the Messiah with those who doubt the faith presented by the Apostolic writings.
• I thank the Lord for the OneForIsrael ministry and for their faithful hearts, they have truly touched my life. Eitan Bar, who is as serious of a student of scripture as they come, has written a terrific book to help any (honest) skeptic find their Messiah in that "scroll of the book" where "it is written of Him."
  
  This book graciously and thoughtfully answers a multitude of serious questions one may find themselves legitimately wrestling with. If that's you I pray that He who "neither slumbers nor sleeps" will give you the courage to read this book and see for yourself that your Messiah is indeed "Him of whom Moses in the Law and the prophets wrote, Jesus of Nazareth".
  
  May Gods face shine upon the OneforIsrael ministry, and may He who "stood among the myrtle trees that were in the ravine" stand by your side Eitan, as i'm sure you face many persecutions for preaching (the) good news to your brothers, " your kinsmen according to the flesh". Blessings my brother in Christ.
• This is what you need to know about how to bring Jesus to Jew because it is very different than bringing the gospel to a gentile. I myself am a Messianic Jew. Compiled in this book is the numerous works Eiten has done against the Rabbinic objections to Jesus. If you want to understand why a Jew is dead set against believing in he is the Jewish Messiah and how to talk to a Jew about Jesus then you need to read this book. How many Christians are even remotely equipped to bring the gospel to a Jew? Most Jews are far more educated in what they believe than the average Christian. This book should be considered essential for all believers. Remember, salvation is first to the Jew and then to the gentile. I am One for Israel
• I'm a new Christian and a non Jew. I've been following OneForIsrael.org for months now. I have learned so much about Jesus, my faith and Jewish history from their website and videos. Now this great book continues their commitment to telling the truth and exposing the misconceptions and outright lies that have kept the Jewish people from the wonderful truth of their heritage.
  I deeply admire Eitan Bar and company for their work online and now in this amazing book. Keep it up guys!
  Blessings from a gentile believer half the world away in Hawaii. -)

• As a gentile, I believe that any true believer in the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob will have honest questions about the subject matter in this book. All of the videos on youtube that this book is a compilation of has been a tremendous help to my faith by making sense of all of the questions I had about the relationship of Jesus and his people.
  
  Thank you for your ministry at One For Israel. Thank you for another wonderful resource. May God continue to use you to spread his gospel to the Jew first and then to the gentile!
• This book is detailed, like a court case. No dumbing-down for silly Christians. You have to use your noodle and your bible to follow along. And that would be a real bible -- not something man-made like "The Message." The author goes toe to toe with his rabbinical foes and states their case fully before disproving it. If you want to witness to Jews don't you think you need to understand Judaism from their viewpoint?
  
  As a former Catholic, I knew all too well what it is like to have the church discourage reading the bible, but I had no idea the Jews did it, too. They haven't read Isaiah 53 in synagogue in hundreds of years!
  
  This book is solid, but you will have to grow a little as you read it. Fortunately the Holy Spirit in you is up to the task.
• Coherent counter-arguments and evidence against objections by Jewish leaders and their followers, to spread the truth! Thank you, Eitan! God bless you!
• A very short but to the point book that shines the light for the Jewish people to recognize their Messiah in their own Scriptures. I pray that the veil will be lifted from the eyes and hearts of the Jewish people. I pray that this book will help accomplish that.
