What every Believer should know about our Hebrew Saviour Y‟shua. Modern scholars have greater access to documents and research developments relating to first-century Judaism than at any other time in history. Many scholars, who only a few years ago were trying to disprove the Bible, are now working together to gain a better understanding of the ancient culture in which Y‟shua lived. Archaeological finds have become so plentiful that some have hailed these times as the beginning of a golden age of biblical archaeology. All of these discoveries have not only given us further proof of the veracity of the Bible, but have given us a greater understanding of the period in which Y‟shua lived out His life on the earth and further evidence of the Jewishness of His teachings. He was Jewish and His teachings reflect His Jewishness. The church at Rome was admonished by Paul that the Christian faith was never intended to be a repudiation of its Jewish roots, but rather, the engrafted Gentile Church was actually a branch that grew out of these roots (Rom 11:18). The essence of this study is that without Judaism there would be no Christianity. Perhaps the most convincing evidence of the thorough-going Jewishness of Y‟shua is His method of teaching. Over the past fifty years, studies of the Jewish nature of the early Church have brought to light many new insights into the first century documents, especially concerning the idioms and Galilean teaching methods of Y‟shua.
