Jerusalem Crucified, Jerusalem Risen

More about the book

Focusing on the eschatological significance of the gospel, Mark Kinzer emphasizes the importance of its initial proclamation to Jews in Jerusalem and throughout Israel. He argues that while the message of the crucified and risen Messiah is universal, it remains deeply rooted in Jewish identity and the historical context of Jerusalem. Kinzer explores how the Messiah's suffering reflects the future struggles of his people, while his resurrection signifies a promise of redemption for Jerusalem, intertwining hope with the Jewish narrative.
