Dan Kane, author of Is Yeshua The Prophesied Messiah of the Hebrew Bible? will guest on the Off the Bookshelf radio show with host, Greg Bullen. The show airs in the Detroit area.

• Have you ever wondered if the prophesied Mashiach of the Hebrew Bible is the same as the Jesus that Christians embrace as Messiah?

• What about the many messianic prophecies recorded in the Old Testament, including G-d’s promise of a new covenant for His people, the Jews—have they been fulfilled?

• And if so, what is the significance for our Jewish friends and neighbors?

In Is Yeshua the Prophesied Messiah of the Hebrew Bible?, author Dan Kane examines a number of Hebrew Bible messianic prophecies, along with other ancient Jewish writings, and weighs them against events in the life of Jesus (Yeshua) as recorded in Scripture.

Such prophecies include the birth of Mashiach; the Messiah as the suffering servant of Isaiah 53; and Mashiach as the Shiloh of Genesis 49:10.

What emerges is:

1. an understanding of how and why some rabbis, beginning in the eleventh century, found it necessary to reinterpret many long-held Hebrew Bible prophecies concerning the coming of Mashiach
2. the role of the Roman Catholic Church in presenting a false Christianity to the Jewish people and its effects on contributions to the Talmud
3. how some so-called Christian denominations incorrectly interpret significant biblical teachings today.
