New Book Available: Illumination Volume 2

The Illumination series aims to uncover the hidden layers of Jewish tradition within the New Testament. In this volume, we begin to explore some of the mystical elements of early kabbalah and its impact on the Gospel message and worldview.

It has been my belief that many commonly misunderstood passages in the New Testament are likely misinterpreted because they have been read outside of their Jewish context.
