Rent The Forgotten Jesus: Why Western Christians Should Follow an Eastern Rabbi

Synopsis

Through the years, our understanding of Jesus has been shaped by different cultural influences, and many Christians have forgotten that Jesus was a Jewish man living in a Jewish land, observing Jewish customs, and investing his life into Jewish men and women.

Trading the popular, but inaccurate Western perspective of the Bible for the context in which Jesus actually ministered in 2000 years ago, author Robby Gallaty reveals the fascinating Hebraic culture, customs, and nuances many Christians have never experienced or learned about.

By uncovering the teaching of the first and second century rabbis and Christian theologians, and highlighting little-known Jewish idioms and traditions, Gallaty takes Christians on a biblical journey to rediscover a forgotten Jesus from a biblical perspective, deepening your relationship with God.

Here's what others are saying: 

"Throughout this book, Robby shows how the New Testament comes alive with a robust understanding of the Old. However, as with Jewish rabbis of old, he isn't satisfied to stop with correct thinking--he pushes us onward to correct living."
J.D. Greear, pastor, The Summit Church

"The message of Jesus may be timeless. But his life, teachings, death, and resurrection were all time-stamped. They took place in the real word at a specific time and place. In The Forgotten Jesus, Robby Gallaty helps us better understand the long-forgotten culture and context of Jesus's life and ministry so that we may better grasp the timeless beauty and power of his gospel."
Larry Osborne, Pastor and Author, North Coast Church

"For many years, First Fruits of Zion has aimed to help Christians to know Jesus better by seeing Him in His Jewish context. Pastor Robby Gallaty is a pastor and Bible teacher who shares that vision.  His new book "The Forgotten Jesus" will help Christians to remember the Jewish Jesus that has largely been forgotten.  Read this book if you want to know and follow our Master better!"
Boaz Michael - Founder and Director of First Fruits of Zion - Jerusalem, Israel

"Looking for something new? Look to something old! This book is 'gold' with fresh insight to the preacher in teaching God's Word and 'gold' to believers in seeing new understanding into the New Testament by looking to the old - the Old Testament. Don't miss this treasure that God has revealed through Robby Gallaty."
​Bryant Wright, Senior pastor of Johnson Ferry Baptist Church, Marietta, GA 

"Robby's passion for Jesus ignites and unites the way he thinks, speaks, and acts. His design in this book is to help you do the same. To my mind, he achieves that goal. Do you crave to love God as Father, the way Jesus did? Read on! And may the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob grant you the desire of your heart."
​James Whitman, Director, Center for Judaic-Christian Studies

"I'm delighted to see Robby Gallaty's The Forgotten Jesus and know it will be of great benefit for anyone wanting to understand Jesus' Jewish context. As Gallaty re-situates him in his historical setting, he shows how our Rabbi brought the truth of God's Word to its greatest expression. Readers will be freshly amazed at Jesus' life and ministry when they view it in light of his first-century Jewish reality."
Lois Tverberg, author of Walking in the Dust of Rabbi Jesus
