Episode 89: The Jewish Jesus - Reconnecting With The Truth About Jesus, Israel, & The Church with David Hoffbrand

Helping Christians make sense of their roots. Helping Jews make sense of Jesus.

On this episode of The Jewish Road Podcast:

The truth is, miss out on the fact that Jesus is Jewish and you’re missing out on Jesus. You could go to church every Sunday, read your Bible everyday, and even lead a Bible study, and unless you look at Jesus in His Jewish context, you're missing something.

In this episode of The Jewish Road podcast, we're joined by David Hoffbrand, author, church leader, and musician from Brighton, England, to discuss his thoughtful book, "The Jewish Jesus - Reconnecting With The Truth About Jesus, Israel, & The Church." It should provoke some thoughtful questions:

  • What does it mean for our Christian faith that Jesus was Jewish?

  • How can we truly bridge the Old and New Testaments?

  • What would it look like to know Jesus as His first disciples did?

By seeing Jesus for who He is, we are brought closer to the authenticity of Jesus' message and identity. As we listen, we begin to grasp the profound connection between Jesus' teachings and the vibrant Jewish culture from which they sprung.

Moreover, David sheds light on the divine design for a unified Church, bringing together Jews and Gentiles. This episode is a call to dive deeper into the essence of Jesus' life, to enrich our walk with Him, and to see God’s enduring love for Israel and His people in vivid color.

The human soul seems hardwired to long for atonement—a strong, sometimes desperate, desire for forgiveness and release. This is a sentiment that echoes across cultures and religious practices, revealing a shared yearning to be set right with Go
