Through Jewish Eyes

by Craig Hartman

Overview

The Jewish people are often misunderstood by the world and sometimes neglected by Christians. They have a beautiful heritage as God's chosen ones, yet they are as starved for the gospel as any other people group.

Through Jewish Eyes presents a myriad of Christian parallels in the beliefs and practices of Judaism. Drawing from his own Jewish background, Craig Hartman demonstrates how to use these parallels as points of contact for gospel witness and for a better understanding of the New Testament.

He also explores the significance and application of Jewish feasts such as Passover, Pentecost, and Rosh Hashanah, explaining the symbolism of traditional garments and religious items.

A rich portrait of culture and a reflection of spiritual need, Through Jewish Eyes will give you deeper insight into Scripture and burden you for the souls of Jewish people around you.
