The topic of ISAIAH: End Times and Messiah in Judaism is explained in the book's title. The book uses selected sections of the Hebrew biblical Book of Isaiah as a springboard for explaining Judaism's understanding of the eschatological concepts of the End Times Redemption and the Messiah. I was motivated to write this book because in repeated conversations with American Christian pastors and believers, I found that there was a lack of agreement about even the meaning of the terminology that both Christianity and Judaism share in describing their views of the future. I chose to use the Book of Isaiah as my primary source because Christian tradition, based on understanding of translations of the book into English, makes use of Isaiah as a source for understanding the future Redemption and the coming of the Messiah. Judaism has a long-established and quite different understanding of these concepts. For the past 2,000 years, the Jewish understanding of these sources has been repressed due to the danger of stating things that are not in line with dominant Christian dogma. We now live in an era where such things are no longer taboo, and the Jewish view can be placed on the table for all to see and understand. This is a critical step in helping Christians understand the Jewish sources of their faith

“I have looked at Isaiah: End Times and Messiah in Judaism, written by my student Israel Rosenberg. I am delighted with his sensitive approach to elucidating the traditional Jewish understanding of the magnificent book of the Hebrew prophet Isaiah and explaining it to a Christian audience. Certainly you will enjoy and benefit from this book!”
-Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, Chief Rabbi of Efrat and Founding Director of Ohr Torah Stone Institutions

“Offers key insight for all readers. In this well-written book, Israel touches on many interesting topics that I believe both Jewish and evangelical Christian readers will find both stimulating and engaging.”
-Pastor Dr. John DeLancey, Director of Biblical Israel Ministries

“Like a good tour guide, Israel Rosenberg presents a fascinating insight into Jewish prophesy for Christian readers. His selections from the Book of Isaiah combined with commentaries, archaeological evidence, and illustrations resonate with the era in which we are living, some 2,700 years later, which he argues portends a Messianic Age.”
-Steve Linde, Editor-in-Chief, The Jerusalem Report

“Rosenberg’s fresh exposition of such prophetic themes as return, redemption, justice, peace, and a messianic age offers his readers a brilliant and assuring biblical corrective of encouragement and hope centered in Isaiah’s ultimate vision of good news for all humankind. I highly recommend this illuminating read; it makes faith possible even in the darkest night.”
-Marvin R. Wilson, PhD, Emeritus Professor of Biblical Studies, Gordon College

“I have worked with Israel Rosenberg as the idea for this book came to fruition. It is the perfect balance between biblical scholarship and archaeological fact, making the prophet come alive before the reader’s eyes. Any Christian interested in the Hebrew Bible and the Jewish perspective on Isaiah MUST HAVE THIS BOOK.”
-Eli Shukron, archaeologist, Old City of Jerusalem
