The People, the Land, and the Future of Israel: Israel and the Jewish People in the Plan of God

The People, the Land, and the Future of Israel: Israel and the Jewish People in the Plan of God

by Darrell L Bock (Author)

Synopsis

What does the Bible teach about the role of the Jewish people and the nation of Israel today? What is God's plan for the future of Israel and the neighboring countries? How can believers in Jesus be part of God's peace process in the Middle East?

The People, the Land, and the Future of Israel walks through the Bible's account of the role of Israel and the Jewish people--both now and in the future. Each contributor offers a profound insight into God's unfolding plan and purpose for the nation of Israel as the Scripture depicts them. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of both current and future events in the Middle East as described in both the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament.

Features an extensive foreword by best-selling author Joel Rosenberg who addresses the question, Will there ever be peace for Israel and her neighbors? Each chapter includes a scannable QR code that links to a short video introduction by the author of that chapter, introducing its topic. Discussion questions in each chapter aid book group and classroom discussion.

Media Reviews
I truly benefitted from and thoroughly enjoyed reading The People, the Land, and the Future of Israel. The great selection of contributors speaks for the quality and theological depth of the book. I read them all with great interest. I was especially gripped by the two chapters that dealt with the task of applying the theological insights to today. . . . You are to be congratulated for putting together the conference and for getting this volume published at just the right time. What a great service and what forward looking hope for Israel and the church! Isn't it great that the replacement theology is being replaced!-- (01/29/2015)
