Many Christians have an ambivalent attitude towards Jews and Judaism, no doubt compounded by the present political situation in present-day Israel. They readily acknowledge that the roots of Christianity are in the Israel of the Bible, but often have only hazy notions of what the New Testament teaches about Israel in God’s purposes. The author has chosen five New Testament writings – Matthew, Acts, Romans, Hebrews and Revelation – in which he examines the importance in which Israel is obviously held by the New Testament writers. He reasons that from the New Testament evidence Israel has a future in God’s purposes; that he has not finished with Israel; that neither the people nor the place have been left behind in God’s purposes. The book originated in a series of talks given in Jerusalem and has an easy-to-read style that will commend itself to the reader. Here is a book that comes from an unashamedly evangelical stance, but which should provoke considerable thought and encourage a more balanced attitude to the Jews and Judaism. It will also be a valuable aid to those readers who wish to explore in greater detail what the New Testament really says about Israel.
