1. Why The Jews Rejected Jesus
The Turning Point in Western History
A blend of history, theology, and polemic explaining why Jews in the Second Temple era declined to follow the nascent Christian movement, emphasizing fidelity to Torah law, differing messianic expectations, and the political-religious pressures of Roman rule. It argues that this principled refusal preserved Jewish identity while inadvertently allowing a distinct faith to emerge and spread among Gentiles, shaping Western civilization, and it probes the legacy of tension and misunderstanding between the two traditions.
