Christians have inherited this revised picture of Jesus, a non-Jewish Jesus. It's all that has ever been presented, from the flannel graphs to the Christian cartoons, and so we don't really question it.

We need to uncover the original and true representation because if we want to know, present, and represent Jesus properly, it’s vital that our picture of Him is accurate. It is not a matter of adding a layer of Jewish culture but of uncovering a truer picture of Jesus. And that accuracy comes with an understanding of the Jewish Jesus, who He was set in that culture and that time. The Jewishness of the gospel needs to be restored.
