Synopsis

Ten authors - Christians and Jews - reflect on how we view scripture, history and prophecy. This is not just another book on end-times eschatology, but looks at the roots of international terrorism in the Middle East and Christian approcaches to conflict resolution. It includes chapters tracing the growth of messianic fellowships in Israel in the twentieth century, the present challenge of the spiritual intifada, and the plight of Palestinian refugees. Readily accessible to the ordinary reader, it also has theological depth for church leaders. The authors provide an important and long overdue contribution to dialoge about Israel. They also seek to promote a better understanding regarding Israel's position in world events, at a time when church boides in britain and America increasingly turn to boycott, divestment and sanctions. It is a timely challenge to anti-Israel sentiment in the West.
