About The Book "History of Messianic Judaism"
An amazing history of 2000 years.
Contrary to what many people consider, the historical reality confirms and teaches
us that Messianic Judaism, in addition to being the oldest current of Judaism, is
also the origin and theological support of Christianity.
For two millennia, Jewish and Christian leaders have invented an endless series of
myths and fallacies. The former to rid themselves of their brother for believing that
Yeshua (Jesus) is the Messiah as announced by patriarchs and prophets, while the
latter have promoted violent and bloody stages of anti-Semitism to remain with the
vineyard, so that between them they almost managed to make disappear his
footprint and presence. But as the wise Rabbi Gamaliel warned the high priest and
other members of the Sanhedrin who persecuted the Messianic Jews in the first
century, “… stay away from these men and leave them alone. For if this plan or
undertaking is of men, it will come to an end; but if it is of God, you will not be able
to stop them. You might even be found fighting against God” (Acts 5:38-39).
The history of Messianic Judaism is enriching in various ways and helps to
illuminate with greater intensity that the divine truth revealed in the Holy Scriptures
(the Bible) is the path of G-d’s people, allowing Jews to understand and reconcile
various aspects of their ancient faith that is generally unknown to them, as well as
allowing Christians to discover the Jewish roots and foundations of their beliefs.
The postmodern believer should understand that Judaism and Christianity are one
and the same faith. It is a common faith that has been divided by the spiritual
forces about which the Scriptures warn, as well as the religious and intellectual
pride that has dominated the lives of countless intolerant leaders, both Jewish and
Christian, even addicted to power, forgetting that the essence of the Judeo-
Christian faith is one and eternal: Love! A love that is presented in the work and
person of the only righteous Yeshua ha Mashiach! (Jesus the Messiah).
