Our Father Abraham by Marvin Wilson
Marvin R. Wilson is an experienced educator who invites his readers to rediscover the Hebrew foundations of Christian beliefs and practice as he attempts to bridge the worlds of Judaism and Christianity with clarity, depth, and warmth. Wilson presents Christianity as rooted in the story of Israel, the covenant with Abraham, the Hebrew Scriptures, and the rhythms of Jewish life and worship. The author explores themes such as the Jewishness of Jesus, the meaning of covenant, the role of Torah, the continuity between the Hebrew Bible and New Testament, and the enduring significance of Israel in God’s plan. Along the way, he challenges common misunderstandings, confronts historical distortions, and offers fresh insights into how Christians can embrace a more biblically grounded faith.
