Summary: Good reference but not a difinitive theological work
Comment: Mr. Sterns' book is a good reference for people who have a working knowledge of Jewish-Christian issues. The author shares some good insights. However, there is too much emphasis and leaning towards Christian fundamentalism in the book for anyone to use it as a difinitive guide in this crucial spiritual area. Balance this book along with works by R. Kendall Soulen, Marvin Wilson, Mark Nanos, Harvey Cox, and a myriad of other Paulist Press releases that shed a more accurate light on the realities of the Jewish roots of Christianity.

Summary: He doth protest too much
Comment: I've studied the Jewish roots of Christianity for some time now, and I still found some surprises in this book. For the sake of those new facts and insights, it was worth it.
On the other hand, he argues way too hard that the law is still to be observed, to some extent even by non-Jewish Christians. He argues too hard that the scripture doesn't really mean what it says in too many instances. He has the idea that certain promises are only for Jews; my interpretation of scripture differs somewhat.
All in all I still enjoyed this book thoroughly, and I look forward to additional works by this author. He has definitely done his homework.

Summary: Begin your search for the Jewish roots of Christiantiy
Comment: This book is short and enlightening. It is a wonderful start for the person beginning to seek understanding of the Jewish context of Christianity. You will see the story unfold of the "church" Jesus intended to establish; of the Jewish origin of Christianity; and of Jesus' life in the Jewish culture. Then, learn how Judaism and Christianity can and will be restored as one. Lastly, learn why your wrong if you think the "law" was the old testament. Order "The Parables" by Brad Young or "Understanding the Difficult Words of Jesus" by David Bivin, with this book, because you will be thristy for more truth.
