Son of David: Healing the Vision of the Messianic Jewish Movement

When Rabbi Dauermann asked me to read Son of David, I read the whole thing at once and called him right away. I told him this was the message people needed to hear regarding Yeshua (Jesus), the Jewish people, Messsianic Judaism, and Jewish-Christian relations. Christians reading this can see palpably what has been lost through the centuries of forgetting that Jesus is the Son of David, a present office, not a dead title. To the Jewish world, we in Messianic Judaism might say it is our prayer that they would see why Yeshua is the center for us of our Judaism, our hope, our avodah. For those who love the people descended from Abraham as well as the people of the world, Yeshua as the Son of David is the one who brings healing and the reign of God to Israel and the nations. --Rabbi Derek Lehman, Tikvat David, Atlanta author of Yeshua in Context and The World to Come Stuart Dauermann (PhD, Fuller Seminary School of Intercultural Studies) is senior scholar with Messianic Jewish Theological Institute and rabbi of Ahavat Zion Messianic Synagogue in Beverly Hills, California. Since the 1960s, he has kept himself busy helping Jews and Christians better understand one another and Yeshua (Jesus) the Messiah.
