Into the Orchard. The Midrashic Tradition in the New Testament.
Whether you are a seasoned explorer or have just begun the journey to understand the Jewishness of the New Testament, you are likely aware that it can be a daunting quest, filled with new words, concepts, and an entirely different way of looking at Scripture. Often these new findings reframe and reshape your personal beliefs and spiritual composition.
After making a similar journey of my own, I looked back at my winding path and asked myself, "What information would have been good to know when I began?". This book is the answer to that question.
You will learn surprising insights that reinterpret familiar parables of Jesus. You will become familiar with Midrash, and other forms of Rabbinic teaching methods that he and his apostles employed prolifically throughout the New Testament.
"Into the Orchard" will serve as a guide from which readers can become acquainted with the socio-religious milieu of the New Testament and late Second Temple Judaism. Most importantly, this book may serve as an interface to begin an inter-faith dialogue - one that leaves polemics and antagonism behind.
