Written from the unique perspective of an Israeli-Jewish believer in Jesus, it offers invaluable insights into the reasons behind Jewish rejection and, at times, hostility toward Christ and Christians. By fostering a deeper understanding of the apprehensions and historical wounds that have shaped Jewish perceptions of Christianity, Dr. Bar equips readers with the tools to be better ambassadors to the Jewish people.
