The Hope of Israel

Written from the historic Amillennial perspective, this theological classic originally published in 1929 demonstrates that modern Dispensationalism’s doctrine of the restoration of an earthly kingdom to national Israel is a revival of the very same teachings which led to the crucifixion of Christ and the persecution of the early Christians by the apostate Jews.

What is the true and biblical hope of Israel? It is the gospel of Jesus Christ that Paul preached to both the Gentiles and the Jews, causing him to be furiously persecuted by the Jews and sent to Rome in chains. The Jews believed that God’s promise to Israel was an earthly kingdom. But God’s promise to the Jews was a kingdom over which Jesus Christ should reign in resurrection, and one into which Gentiles are called upon terms of perfect equality with the Jews.
