Jesus in the Hebrew Scriptures: The Identity of the Messiah

by Meno Kalisher

Jesus in the Hebrew Scriptures? Wasn’t He supposed to be in the New Testament only? Of course He is prominently featured in the many prophecies whoch foretell his first and second comings. This amazing book takes a detailed and comprehensive look at these examples. 

But did you know that throughout the Hebrew narrative, Jesus was also there in person? Did you know that He was seen not just by some of the well-known heroes of the faith, but that He met and conversed also with some of the less prominent Jewish figures? 

Why should one bother learning all those details out of a book that is nearly 3000 years old? Because Jesus says: “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also” (John 14:7). There is nothing more important in the world than knowing Jesus – and knowing Him well – because “he who does not have the Son of God does not have life” (1 John 5:12).
