Answering Jewish Objections to Jesus (Vol 5): Traditional Jewish Objections Book

In the fifth and final volume of this highly-acclaimed series, Dr. Brown provides a comprehensive refutation of the traditional Jewish concept that there is a binding, authoritative Oral Law going back to Moses.

While showing great respect for his people's traditions, Brown dispels the idea that only traditional Jews can rightly understand the Hebrew Scriptures. He demonstrates that the written Word alone carries absolute authority, and when there is a conflict between the Bible and tradition, Jews are called to follow the Bible.

This study will revolutionize the lives of both Jewish and Christian readers.

Michael L Brown (Author)
About

Dr. Michael L. Brown, born in 1955, embodies a fascinating intersection of Jewish heritage, Christian faith, and a passionate pursuit of biblical understanding. His life journey, brimming with unexpected turns and unwavering convictions, reflects his dedication to apologetics, cultural engagement, and reviving spiritual awakening.

Brown's early path diverged from his eventual religious calling. Raised in a secular Jewish household, he embarked on a bohemian lifestyle during his youth, experimenting with drugs and immersing himself in the hippie counterculture. However, a dramatic conversion experience in 1971 led him to embrace Jesus as the Messiah, profoundly altering his trajectory.

Driven by his newfound faith, Brown embarked on a quest for knowledge. He earned a M.Div. from Master's Seminary and a Ph.D. in Near Eastern Languages and Literature from New York University. This academic foundation fueled his passion for biblical scholarship, particularly focusing on Hebraic hermeneutics, a methodology emphasizing the original Hebrew context of scripture.

Beyond scholarly pursuits, Brown actively engages with a wide audience. He hosts the nationally syndicated radio show "The Line of Fire," known for its engaging debates and discussions on faith, culture, and current events. He also travels extensively, speaking at conferences and churches, engaging audiences with his dynamic message and approachable style.

Brown's influence extends beyond radio waves and lecture halls. He has authored over 40 books, tackling diverse topics like apologetics, anti-Semitism, and spiritual renewal. He actively participates in the Messianic Jewish movement, bridging the gap between Jewish and Christian communities. This lifelong pursuit of understanding and communication reflects his core belief in the transformative power of faith and the importance of open dialogue.

Dr. Michael L. Brown's journey illustrates the power of personal transformation and the unwavering pursuit of truth. As a scholar, apologist, and communicator, he continues to ignite conversations, challenge perspectives, and inspire individuals to delve deeper into their faith and understanding of the world.
