Jesus Prequel

4.4/5 ( ratings)

From the back cover:

Did you ever read something in the gospels and wonder, "Why did Jesus do that?" Did you ever read a passage in the Old Testament and wonder, "Why is this in the Bible?" As twenty-first century readers, we're removed from the Bible's context in many ways: language, culture, time and location. Because of that distance, our view of Jesus can be a bit fuzzy.

In Jesus Prequel, Eric Smith sharpens our picture of Jesus by showing how the Old Testament is the "backstory" of the gospels. Drawing insights from Exodus, Leviticus, Deuteronomy and Isaiah, Smith shows the deeper meanings in play when Jesus walks on water, tells his disciples to eat the Passover meal "in remembrance of him," and performs miracles. This book will expand your understanding of Jesus' context and deepen your appreciation of his work.
