About the course
Shalom! I am a Jewish believer and follower of Jesus, the Messiah. In this course we will have two class sessions per week, one lecture and one discussion. Students will learn about Jesus in the Old Testament and see how it relates to the New Testament. We will explore themes through reading, writing, and discussion. Students will identify Jesus in the Jewish holidays, temple, covenants, and people of the Old Testament. We will talk about evangelism to Jewish people today and better appreciate the good news of Jesus in our Old Testament.
