From Reviews at Amazon.com . . .

There are many books on the market about Jesus (Yeshua) but often they are written out of Western context and viewpoint. This book however, sheds light on and provides a clearer picture of who Jesus was in his Jewish, Middle Eastern context.

...a wonderful read for those seeking a way to learn more of an understanding of Yeshua without having to plow into a dry tome by a dusty academic.

While reading this book I began to understand more and more the aims and continuing goals of Yeshua for his disciples then and now.

...takes on the problems of Paul in relation to Jewish & Christian thought. Was Paul trying to start a new religion? Did he reject the Torah and tradition?

Derek Leman has the rare quality of being a respected scholar who gets his ideas across clearly in an interesting manner.

Many are afraid that the OT is too difficult to understand in our lives. Leman's love of the Torah will inspire you to not be afraid of looking at the OT. There are so many levels that the Author takes time to explain and eliminates the fears that a lot of us feel when we try to delve into a difficult passage.

"The World to Come" delivers a fresh approach to the afterlife, which has become a cliché in popular books, magazines and films. The concept of the World to Come is like a fine piece of furniture that has been neglected and repainted numerous times. The author strips away the garish veneer of popular culture to reveal the beauty of the Tanakh, B'rit Chadashah, the Sages and Believers writings.
