Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ben F. Meyer once wrote, "Radical developments generally take place not by someone's seeing something new but by his seeing everything in a new way." This book is Michael Vicko Zolondek's attempt to bring Meyer's words to fruition. For more than two hundred years, scholars have been debating whether the historical Jesus took up the role of Davidic Messiah. In this book, Zolondek addresses this long-standing question in a fresh and unique way. He challenges a generation of scholarship by arguing that the manner in which it has gone about answering the Davidic messianic question is significantly problematic when considered in the light of Jesus' cultural context and the messianism of his day. This cultural context and messianism then forms the basis for Zolondek's fresh approach to the Davidic messianic question, which he ultimately answers in the affirmative. In this book, readers will not only be exposed to more than forty years of research on the Davidic messianic question, but they will come away with a unique understanding of what it means to be a Davidic Messiah and what it would have looked like for Jesus to have taken up that role.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Arielle, a new immigrant to Israel, sees a poster announcing the coming of the Messiah, she feels compelled to raise people's awareness about it in any way she can. She starts by interviewing people, follows an old Chassid who is putting up more signs, and gets involved in promoting the rally where the Messiah is to be revealed. Little does she know that this day will change her life, setting her on an exploration of her beliefs and her commitment to the path she's chosen. A handsome young Chassid she meets the day of the rally, Aryeh, goes through changes of his own, choosing to leave the insular world he’d grown up in. David, a former Chassid who has chosen to leave the fold and expand his horizons, is of Davidic descent. His Uncle Yehoshua, a Holocaust survivor, believes himself to be the Messiah and plans to let the world know at a rally in Jerusalem. Yehoshua has been excommunicated by his Chassidic sect, including most of his family. Though David isn’t sure if it's true, he is willing to do whatever he can to help his uncle. When Aryeh and Arielle meet again at a Shabbat dinner, they feel a strong bond. As they get to know each other and their relationship develops, Aryeh introduces her to his new friends, David and Miri, and a world of spirituality she hadn't known existed. David's chosen profession, as a university professor, makes it necessary for David and Miri to move back to the United States. In 1994, after five years back in the United States, a dream Miri has leads them back to Israel for a visit, which will allow them to realize a longtime dream.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PREMISE One worships God by recognizing that we cannot recognize God. We can only recognize what He does for us. We can recognize how He exists in the beauty of our world, how He opens our hearts with love for our fellow man, how He opens our minds to learn of Him and by His power we find meaning in our devotion to His will and purpose. ENDORSEMENT "As a professional educator in the field of religious studies, I have spent my life, both as a teacher and as a student, reading books about the Bible and the history of Christianity. I have already read a plethora of books about the historical Jesus and his life. The search for the historical Jesus has been a task taken up by many scholars during the last two thousand years and there is no sign that interest in this particular area of Biblical research is likely to wane anytime soon. The difficulty I have found is that professional Biblical scholars and theologians usually, consciously or unconsciously, have an agenda that they wish to promote. These items of agenda are fairly transparent and are easily recognizable. One can often guess the conclusions of their research long before reaching the end of the book. More often than not, these texts are really only revisions of similar books written not all that long ago. "It was with more than a fair amount of skepticism that I agreed to read John Mitchell ́s manuscript, "Jesus the Messiah, Biography of the Word". I had only recently become acquainted with John when he informed me that he had been working on a book about the life of Jesus. Expecting little more than an amateur exegete ́s attempt to employ some kind of simplistic critical approach to the character of Jesus as found in the New Testament, I was overwhelmed by the expertise demonstrated by his writing. A layman, with a background in mathematics and engineering, John ́s approach to the task of describing the life of Jesus is as refreshing as it is comprehensive. I was challenged by his attention to detail and his exhaustive search for an accurate account of Jesus ́ life and ministry. His precision humbled this professional scholar and college professor. I could not help but remember that God ́s greatest revelation did not come as a priest, or scribe, but as a carpenter ́s son from Galilee. Similarly, the first accounts of Jesus ́ life came not from the established clergy, but from the laity. It is, therefore, well worth while, whether you are a professional scholar or just a curious Christian, to read my friend, John R. Mitchell ́s, "Jesus the Messiah, Biography of the Word."" --Jon Carlock, Professor of Religion and Philosophy, Bethel College, McKenzie, Tennessee SUMMATION POINTS “Jesus the Messiah, Biography of the Word” is a simple, straightforward adaptation and correlation of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and other referencing material for research. An examination of the first three, known as the Synoptic Gospels, agrees mostly to content and order but follow a generalized chronology. The chronology for events in the creation of the “Biography” has been rendered to be a smooth flow between gospels. Events have been added or expanded to provide the detail that must surely have taken place over the span of Jesus’ life. The “Gospel of John” seems to have been written independently of the other three although John as an eyewitness filled in the details that were needed for several events. Mark was not known to be a follower of Jesus during his ministry. And of course Luke never saw Jesus as he was a physician in a distant city and who became a follower of Paul. Paul, of course, was not a disciple of Jesus and it is not known if he ever saw Jesus. As Jesus ́ life and ministry of events were in a chronological order, the “Biography” brings together the four gospels into one cohesive and suggested chronology of events. Some events have
