Oh Jew, Oh Gentile, Why? explores the situation that Jews and the church currently face by searching back to the roots of Jewish leadership's animosity against Christians and Gentile atrocities against Jews. This is a call to recognize and admit Christendom's sins against the Hebrew people for two thousand years. It proposes that Christendom got the big story wrong in the early centuries and challenges the long-held presupposition of having replaced Israel. The chapters raise progressive questions that explore how Christendom's deviations from Scripture escalated, and how these legacies affect Jewish/Gentile relationships today, such as:
How did Christendom become Gentile-ized?
What legacies from the past alienate Jews and the nations today?
Why is the growing Messianic Jewish movement so significant?
Why can God's people move into the future with hope?
Such questions call for redirections vital to generating biblical reconciliation. At this tense time when Jews and Gentiles are reaping the lethal legacy of misguided doctrines and histories, the unity of God's people is a crucial need. Who will accept and be blessed by the oneness already accomplished by Yeshua, the reconciliation that God says extends on into eternity?
