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.
I can’t imagine putting that much research and study into your excellent book, The Messianic Feast. You did such a thorough job, no one with an open mind can help but change their mind and pray for God to move—to bring about His love feast He longs for His Bride to experience.
Thank you for your labor of love. Certainly, God chose the right person to take on and complete a book that is ready for God to use—to give His people the knowledge they need to freely experience what He wants to give. You have done your job, and I, along with others, will pray for all those hungry hearts out there—searching for more—to find the answers they need in your book to enter into what God has for them.
Thank you, Al. I feel privileged to get a copy of your book. I believe it to be a masterpiece. I especially liked all the scriptures that were typed out and not just referenced. It was easy to read and kept my attention throughout the book. I was going to just “skim through it,” but ended up reading every word. Excellent job! Every pastor needs this book, but I fear most are not ready. Al has done his part; now I pray God will prepare His Bride to receive it. He knows who they are.
(I long for the Body of Christ to come into fellowship with one another in His Spirit, as it is so lacking in most churches—and in my opinion, they don’t have a clue about “the Communion.”)
Blessings,
Barbara
