I found Alex’s book to be affirming of several things that previously seemed to be conflicting scriptures. Reading his renditions brought clarity to obvious oddities created over the years by many translations.
He goes beyond my lexicon searching’s and adds insights by bringing the actual Greek and Hebrew to light.
I am thankful for this study as well as his intriguing YouTube presentations!
I do not like this book—I love this book!
There are several reasons why I deeply appreciate it. The study of the words used in their original language, and what they meant in the time and context in which they were written, is exceptional. The author’s knowledge and use of hermeneutical principles, along with his understanding of the manners and customs of those days, add significant depth.
Another very important factor is the consideration of church history, as well as the impact of both governmental and clerical rule that shaped and dictated much of the church’s dogma and the traditions that were accepted and adopted. Many compromises were made in the name of unity and peace, often taking priority over the truths of the Bible.
The honesty and integrity of the author are commendable, and I hope more Christian literature and books will follow this example.
A Scholarly Addition to Christian and Jewish Books
The author is not only skilled in piecing together his facts but also creates a premise on which he solidly stands. You will learn more than information about the Messianic Feast—you will gain a wealth of insight into the Bible, both Old and New Testaments.
Well done!!!!
