Searching for the Promised One

Description

How a skeptical and determined Jewish teenager found the true Messiah.

From Jewish Studies professor and Bible teacher/host of Moody Radio's Open Line with Dr. Michael Rydelnik, a personal story and journey into the Hebrew Scriptures.

Dr. Michael Rydelnik's parents were Holocaust survivors. He grew up hearing about the heartbreaking stories of the murders of the Six Million, his own family among them and the tortured survival of his own parents. But when he was in high school, his Jewish mother revealed that she secretly believed that Yeshua (Jesus) of Nazareth was the Jewish Messiah. Upset, concerned, and intent on proving her wrong, he decided to search the Hebrew Bible. What he discovered changed his life.

In Searching for the Promised One, Michael takes readers on a gripping and surprising journey through key passages of the Hebrew Bible that predict the Jewish Messiah. With an honest and in-depth look, he explores questions like:

• Where would the Messiah be born? Micah 5:2-5
• What will be the sign of the Messiah's birth? Isaiah 7:1-16
• What will the Messiah's names be and what do they reveal about Him? Isaiah 9:6-7
• What will the Messiah's earthly work look like? Isaiah 35:1-10, Isaiah 61:1-3
• When will the Messiah arrive and will He actually die? Daniel 9:24-27
• What was foretold about the Messiah's rejection, suffering, death and resurrection? Isaiah 52:13-53:12
• And much more

Is it possible that the Promised One has come and we've missed Him? Dr. Rydelnik offers clear and thoughtful explanations of the biblical passages that foretell the Messiah. Readers will be amazed at the supernatural predictions found in the Hebrew Bible and inspired by the true fulfillment of these prophecies. This book sharpens, challenges, and encourages us to study and listen to God's remarkable book, the Bible. It invites us to search the Scriptures and discover that Yeshua is indeed the promised Messiah of Israel and the world.
