Our Lost Legacy by Dr. John Garr

For the past nineteen centuries, millions of believers have been denied their biblical legacy, the riches of the Hebrew foundations of their faith. Christian Judaeophobia, anti-Judaism, and anti-Semitism have conspired to rob them of the treasures of their inheritance. This book presents elected essays and lectures in which Dr. Garr urges the church to recover its Hebrew heritage, its connection with the Jewish matrix from which it was produced. These pages call Christians back to the Bible, to the roots of faith that enrich lives and equip believers to achieve greater maturity through a more complete knowledge of Jesus, our Jewish Lord. Order from Restoration Foundation.

Christianity Is Jewish by Edith Schaffer

Exploring the historical and spiritual significance of the Jewish race, this treatment presents the Bible as a unified document in which God has progressively unfolded the plan of salvation. Christianity Is Jewish, lovingly and gently presents the salvation message of Jesus Christ, the long awaited, Jewish Messiah in a logical and deductive fashion. It brings the thread of Redemption from the promise of the Messiah in Genesis, through the fulfillment of the prophecies of the Jewish prophets. It clearly shows Christianity as a grafted vine rooted in Judaism. We are the logical fulfillment of Judaism, not a new invention of man's thoughts. Edith Schaeffer is never harsh or confrontational and her book is an easy and enjoyable read. Paperback: 224 pages.


Restoring the Jewishness of the Gospel by David Stern. Taken from the Messianic Jewish Manifesto (also authored by Stern), this book introduces the Modern Believer to the roots of his faith. Challenges conventional ideas.

The Hem of His Garment by Dr. John Garr

As you read this volume, you'll be simply amazed at just how Jewish Jesus really was! You'll also be enriched by a comprehensive understanding of spiritual lessons found in biblically Hebraic dress.The story in Matthew 9 is not just an isolated, one-of-a-kind event in the life of Jesus, a time when one lone woman reached out and touched the hem of his garment to be healed. Hidden from the eye of the reader of these stories is an enriching key to understanding what actually happened on these days of deliverance. Most versions of the Bible tell us that she touched the "hem of his garment"1 or the "border of his garment"2 or the "edge of his cloak"3 or the "fringe of his cloak."4 None of these translations, however, adequately conveys one important detail of the event. Without this detail, we simply miss the richness of this event and of an entire tradition in biblical history. This book is available online!
