THE BOOK OF GENESIS: The Third Installment of Ariel's Bible Commentary Series
by Dr. Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum


In structure, the Book of Genesis is a series of eleven family histories, or toldots, compiled and edited by Moses. Throughout the vivid detail provided in Genesis, Dr. Fruchtenbaum's exegesis allows God's Word to make its own case for a literal interpretation of the Bible. Dr. Fruchtenbaum's grammatical, historical-geographical approach to Scriptures from a Jewish perspective provides the reader an exciting new way to grasp and unlock the richness of this book of the beginnings of all nations, and in particular, the beginning of the nation of Israel.

For instance, Dr. Fruchtenbaum brings to life the many genealogies in Genesis as they relate to God's promises of a Messiah. Genesis makes clear the Messiah would one day come out of Israel to redeem the nation of Israel and to bless all the families of the earth.

Important to understanding one's relationship to God, Genesis presents four of God's eight covenants. Three are covenants God made with humanity in general, and these are associated with the familiar stories of Creation, the Fall, and the Flood. The fourth one, an unconditional covenant with Abraham, is the beginning of the story of the nation of Israel, based on God's promises of descendants and Land to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The account of the nation of Israel that Moses begins in Genesis, he then continues in the four books of the Bible that follow.

THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE MESSIAH: A Study of the Sequence of Prophetic Events
by Dr. Arnold Fruchtenbaum


Using the Book of Revelation as an end time road map, Dr. Fruchtenbaum weaves the prophetic writings of the Hebrew Scriptures and Messiah’s teachings to reveal God’s plan for the future of Israel and the world. Dr. Fruchtenbaum gathers the many pieces of the prophetic puzzle and places them in sequential order with the result summed up by Dr. Charles Ryrie in his foreword: "Those who read this book cannot help but be instructed and stimulated by his work."

Footsteps is detailed, thorough and scholarly, yet written in a style that the average reader can easily understand. With a wealth of wisdom drawn from his Jewish background and extensive research, the author even tackles the "problem passages" to provide a comprehensive overview of the entire range of prophetic truth.

"In a thoroughly biblical, balanced, and clear presentation, Arnold Fruchtenbaum plainly lays out God’s plan for the future while avoiding the sensational errors of other prophetic writers. I have relied on this book as a resource for years." Michael Rydelnik, Professor of Jewish Studies Program, Moody Bible Institute

Twenty years of teaching Eschatology since the original writing of this book has given Dr. Fruchtenbaum further reflections on some passages. This updated edition includes five new appendices to the book.

THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE MESSIAH STUDY GUIDE (eBOOK PDF)
by Jackie Sciascia and Laina Maher


Jackie and Laina's burning desire to teach the illuminating truths of Dr. Fruchtenbaum's landmark work on prophecy led them to develop this remarkable study guide. Years of effort by these longtime friends of the ministry have gone into the writing and refinement of this new resource. The study guide has been tested for more than three years, with over one hundred students in various classroom settings. Designed around a straight forward question and answer format, the guide works equally well for large, small, or even home groups. Editable text boxes allow the teacher or student to type their answers in directly, and then modify them at anytime following further study or class discussion. Student response has been enthusiastic:

"This is a great guide, makes Footsteps easy to understand..."
"Could not have done it without the guide..."
"Good questions, makes you think..."
"Love all the bullet points in the guide..."
"After taking this class using the guide, I have decided to lead a group out of my home."

A recent email comment from Debora C. in Montana: Thank you, thank you, thank you! I have taught Eschatology through three times (and am halfway through another class right now) using Footsteps as the primary resource. The best I could come up with was a hodgepodge of mismatched, seat-of-the-pants note guides to teach from. I'm always thinking “I should carve out some time and make a workbook to minimize the amount of review I wind up doing.” Imagine my great delight when I logged on to Ariel.org and saw the new Footsteps Study Guide!

If you are a group leader, this guide is an essential tool that will help you effectively communicate what the Bible teaches about what is yet to come. For personal study, this guide will prove invaluable to your grasp of the rich eschatological treasures awaiting discovery in Dr. Fruchtenbaum's "The Footsteps Of The Messiah."

JUDGES and RUTH: The Second Installment of Ariel's Bible Commentary Series
by Dr. Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum


In his action-packed, culturally relevant exegesis of the Book of Judges, Dr. Fruchtenbaum opens a portal where formerly unfamiliar names and places come alive with meaning. Armies clash, heroes rise, and human affection for other gods multiplies with soul-numbing impact. We see in his exegesis of the Book of Ruth a contrasting, in-depth picture of life among the true believers living in Bethlehem during this ancient time.

These two history books are set in the time when Israel was in the Land but not yet a unified nation. Although God continues to hear the cry of the children of Israel each time they fall away and face turmoil, they fall ever further into spiritual blindness because of their disobedience. Eventually, even the spiritual leaders become immune to their own glaring indifference to God’s Word. In all, God sent twelve Judges to save the children of Israel. Seven of these Judges are treated in detail as Israel goes through each cycle of apostasy, oppression, repentance, and salvation by a Judge.

The Book of Ruth, an appendix to the Book of Judges, presents enormously touching portraits of Naomi, Ruth, and Boaz. They are pictured as part of the faithful community of Messianic Jewish believers of their own time, worthy ancestors of King David and the promised King Messiah yet to be revealed.

THE MESSIANIC JEWISH EPISTLES: The First Installment of Ariel's Bible Commentary Series
by Dr. Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum


Of the twenty-one epistles in the New Testament, five were written to Jewish believers dealing with their specific needs and issues in mind. There are things in these epistles applicable to all believers, but some are true only of Jewish believers. The epistles are Hebrews, James, I & II Peter, and Jude.

The first century Messianic Jewish community was faced with two major problems: persecution and false doctrine.

To deal with the first problem of persecution, Hebrews, James, and I Peter were written. Persecution took place both within the Land of Israel and among the Jewish believers of the Diaspora, Diaspora - being a technical term for Jews living outside the Land of Israel (e.g., James 1:1; I Peter 1:1). The book of Hebrews was written from within the Diaspora in order to deal with the persecution of Jewish believers in the Land of Israel. The epistles of James and I Peter were written in order to deal with the persecution of Jewish believers in the Diaspora; James written from within the Land of Israel, and I Peter written from within the Diaspora itself.

To deal with the second problem of false doctrine, two other epistles were written: II Peter and Jude. Second Peter was written from one part of the Diaspora to Jewish believers in another part of the Diaspora. Jude was written from within the Land of Israel to Jewish believers in the Diaspora.

MESSIANIC CHRISTOLOGY
by Arnold G. Fruchtenbaum, Th.M., Ph.D.


Messianic Christology  is a study of Old Testament prophecy concerning the First Coming of the Messiah. Dr. Fruchtenbaum works his way through the Old Testament following the first century Jewish arrangement of the books, the arrangement that Jesus was familiar with. He shows from The Law, The Prophets and The Writings... how the revelation of the Messiah gradually progressed and built-up to reveal a magnificent picture of the Deliverer to come.

The Hebrew Scriptures formed the very basis for evangelism in the New Testament. First, Jesus with His disciples, and then the disciples themselves used the Old Testament to substantiate His claim to be the Messiah. When the messianic expectations of Hebrew prophecy are fully understood, it becomes clear that Jesus and only Jesus can fulfill these requirements.

DO YOU KNOW:
That Chavah (Eve) mistakenly thought she had given birth to the promised God-man.
Why Lamech believed his son was to be the Messiah?
That at his time of death, Jacob prophesied to his fourth son and pinpointed the very time that Messiah would come in history.
Who the covenant recorded in II Samuel 7 refers to, as opposed to who the parallel passage in I Chronicles 17 refers to?
That there are two distinct prophesies in Isaiah 7, one to the wicked king Ahaz and another to the whole house of David?
That Daniel 9 is only one of seven prophesies that insist upon Messiah's appearance on earth before a very significant historical event?
That while the Jewish author of the Zohar sensed plurality in the unutterable name of God, the Hebrew Scriptures plainly teach that it is only possible to believe that Messiah is God if He is considered to be one member of the Godhead.
The above is only a minute sampling of topics dealt with in Messianic Christology.

An entire supplemental section explains how the Old Testament reveals not only the plurality, but also the unity and triunity of the Godhead. Eleven in-depth appendices cover critical topics including: The Sons of God of Genesis 6, Rabbinic Views of Messiah and Isaiah 53, Why Did Messiah Have to Die?, Christ's Right to David's Throne, The Starting Point of the Seventy Sevens, How Did the Wise Men Know?, How the New Testament Quotes the Old Testament, The Death of Judas Iscariot, Jewish Objections to Jesus, and a detailed Table of Messianic Prophecies.

Messianic Christology is an absorbing study that will strengthen your faith, bless your heart, invigorate your worship, and empower your witness to Jew and Gentile.

HEBREW CHRISTIANITY: Its Theology, History & Philosophy
by Dr. Arnold Fruchtenbaum


Despite its esoteric title, this down-to-earth book deals with the many thorny realities facing every Jewish believer. It addresses a wide range of the practical and theological issues that arise when a Jewish person accepts Jesus as Messiah and seeks membership and fellowship in a local church, yet rightly desires to maintain lifelong community and national identities. The book is broad in scope, citing the major themes of Hebrew Christianity today - and careful in detail, wrestling with controversial matters raging within and without the messianic movement.

JESUS WAS A JEW
by Dr. Arnold Fruchtenbaum


Who was Jesus of Nazareth? Controversy over the answer still rages today. Was Jesus simply a good teacher? Was he a well-meaning but confused religious reformer? Was he a disciple of another teacher? Regardless of your opinion, one overlooked fact is key: Jesus was a Jew. Looking for answers as to the real identity of Jesus, Arnold Fruchtenbaum, author of Jesus Was A Jew, embarked on his own personal search. He documents the opinions of many Jewish leaders. He deals with the Messianic hope. He also examines Jewish objections to Jesus honestly and with insight. Jesus Was A Jew contains interviews with almost 40 Jews — rabbis, homemakers, actors, hairdressers, and others from all walks of life — concerning what they believe about Jesus.

ISRAELOLOGY: The Missing Link In Systematic Theology
by Dr. Arnold Fruchtenbaum


One's view of Israel is key in determining one's theology, and this groundbreaking study scrutinizes beliefs that tend to confuse the identities of both Israel and the Church. It is the first to create an entire systematic theology of all that the Scriptures say in regard to the people of Israel. As such, Israelology fills a tremendously neglected void, while affecting nearly every other segment of systematic theology and directly addressing a crucial point of division in evangelical theology today.

Dr. Fruchtenbaum's masterful book, written over a 13-year period to earn his Ph.D. from New York University, exhaustively surveys every aspect of Israel's past, present and future from the perspective of four major schools of theology (postmillennialism, amillennialism, premillennialism and dispensationalism). Its far-reaching conclusion is that only the last, with its clear distinction between Israel and the Church, can, in fact, provide a systematized biblical doctrine of Israel. But even dispensationalists – while organizing every other major Scriptural theme from the Church (Ecclesiology) to Salvation (Soteriology) to Last Days (Eschatology) – have failed to develop a systematic theology of one of the Bible's most integral subjects, Israel. Until now … Israelology pioneers a fully dispensational approach to this topic, proving that it is central to a proper systematic theology and, thus, critical in terms of issues such as Messiah's return, evangelism, anti-Semitism and, ultimately, God's entire agenda for Jews and Gentiles alike.

The Biblical Evangelist called Israelology a "tremendous, masterful book... Amillennialism, postmillennialism and other forms of Covenant Theology go up in smoke under the withering blaze of biblical light Fruchtenbaum places on them."
