T. Alex Tennent’s book is an essential read for anyone seeking to accurately understand the scriptures concerning the events surrounding the Last Supper and the crucifixion of Jesus. If you have ever found yourself lost in the explanations offered by commentators attempting to harmonize the gospel accounts of the Last Supper, the Passover, Jesus’ crucifixion, burial, and resurrection, then you must read this book.
The author’s insights into the original meanings of the Greek and Hebrew texts offer revelatory understanding. By correctly translating key scriptures that pertain to these events, he has unlocked heretofore hidden truths. This carefully researched book reveals how bias-driven translations have, over time, laid a foundation that obscured the truth.
Additionally, through his careful analysis of scripture, he has unpacked the true significance of “Communion.” Its real spiritual meaning is finally brought to light. This book should not be ignored by the serious student of the scriptures.
I found this book to be scripturally accurate and so helpful in understanding the true meaning of baptism. I think some people jump to conclusions without thoroughly reading and proving what Alex Tennent is teaching, which is sad. I believe it’s so important to come out of religious traditions and highly recommend reading this book-especially before giving reviews or forming an opinion.
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
