Overview

The Sermon on the Mount: A Completely Jewish PerspectiveDiscover the Jewish heart of Jesus' (Yeshua) most famous teaching. For centuries, the Sermon on the Mount has inspired seekers of faith, morality, and meaning. Yet, much of its depth has been obscured by layers of interpretation far removed from the world in which it was first spoken. The Sermon on the Mount: A Completely Jewish Perspective restores the words of Yeshua (Jesus) to their original setting-within the vibrant, ethical, and spiritual world of first-century Judaism. In this fresh and illuminating study, readers will encounter the Sermon as it was meant to be heard: a masterful discourse by a Jewish sage teaching other Jews about the essence of righteousness, compassion, and covenantal living. What You'll Discover Inside Authentic Context: Experience the Sermon within its original Jewish cultural and religious framework-where Torah values, Hebrew idioms, and rabbinic thought come alive. Deep Parallels: Explore connections between Yeshua's words and the Psalms, Proverbs, Isaiah, and Pirkei Avot (Ethics of the Fathers). Balanced Insight: Understand that Yeshua (Jesus) did not reject the Torah-he expanded it through the traditional Jewish practice of midrash, uncovering its heart rather than replacing it. Spiritual Depth: Engage with the Sermon through the four classic Jewish levels of interpretation-peshat, remez, drash, sod-revealing its moral, mystical, and transformative power. Interfaith Bridge: See how a Jewish reading of Yeshua's (Jesus) teachings can foster understanding and respect between Jews and Christians, healing centuries of misunderstanding. Why This Book MattersAt 167 pages, this thoughtfully written volume offers clarity without complexity. It's an essential resource for anyone seeking to rediscover Yeshua (Jesus) within his own faith tradition and to explore how Jewish wisdom illuminates the Beatitudes, the Lord's Prayer, and the call to a life of genuine righteousness. Whether you're a scholar, student, pastor, rabbi, or simply a seeker of truth, The Sermon on the Mount: A Completely Jewish Perspective will open your eyes to the timeless Jewish roots of one of the most powerful teachings ever spoken.
