General Description:

Jesus of Israel

Finding Christ in the Old Testament

Fr. Richard Veras; Foreword by Fr. Peter Cameron, O.P., editor of Magnificat magazine

"Jesus did not come from nowhere! He was long awaited by a people who were educated…to expect God's presence in the messiness of their own history." —From the Introduction

Not only was Jesus a Jew, his coming was foreshadowed in stories from Genesis to the prophets. Fr. Richard Veras invites us to enter a more intimate relationship with Jesus Christ through the doors of familiar and not-so-familiar incidents in the Old Testament.

Ever wonder, for example, why God asked Abraham to sacrifice Isaac? Even more, why Abraham was willing to do it? Puzzled as to why there are two creation accounts in Genesis? What's the problem with being a Samaritan? And what does any of this have to do with Jesus and our life in him?
The author explores these and other issues with one goal in mind: to "aid the reader to come to a deeper certainty about Jesus Christ."
