"Pharisees. Extinct? Endangered? Neither. Alive and well, and not figuratively, either.
But before you assume you know their character and intentions, (for in the way you judge, you will be judged), let a Pharisee speak for himself. That's what Dr. R.T. Kendall did.
Evangelical leader R.T. Kendall invited his very good friend Rabbi David Rosen to exchange a series of letters with the intention of making them public - without revision!
I was pleasantly surprised at the heart-focus of Rabbi David Rosen, yet puzzled at first by his pluralism. Either pharisees have changed in nature over the millenia, perhaps taking Jesus' criticisms to heart, or we never really understood them.
And how can one be a pluralist, but not a relativist? The rabbi embodies that, too.
Finally, what about the Messiah? According to Judaism, his identity does not matter merely as much as the era that he will usher in."
This book shows a respectful but intense discussion between two men: an evangelical Christian, and a Jewish rabbi.
For me, the greatest thing about this book is seeing how these two men (who are good friends) speak to each other about (and despite) their differences. It is so easy to get angry or to end up in overly heated debates when people disagree with us, especially on matters of faith and religion, but these two men are humble and respectful throughout. There is much we can probably all learn from their example.
The next greatest thing I found in this book was a wealth of knowledge about Judiasm and Pharisees. As a Christian myself, I didn't even realise how ignorant I was of these topics! The insights were fascinating and helped present a challenge for my own ideas of faith and theology.
I will comment that I do not entirely agree with all that RT Kendall teaches as a Christian leader. Don't let that put you off reading this book if you are in the same situation though. I recommend this book to anybody from whatever faith (or no faith at all). It is very interesting and encouraging."
