Imagine if someone who had never heard of Judaism or Christianity read the Old Testament. How could the relationship between God and humanity possibly be understood?

This is a rarity in Biblical interpretation—brilliant and rigorously argued, "a work of stunning originality."

In this book, pastor and professor Mitchell Chase argues that in order to understand the fall and recognize its profound impact on later Scripture and the world today, Christians must first understand Genesis 3.

Does the Tanakh (the “Old Testament”) teach the divinity of the Messiah (the Christ)? The answer is “yes!” and this book will show how. The development of the Messiah theme in the Tanakh is a subtle progressive revelation, but there is nevertheless plenty there to demonstrate that a great king will one day come who will reconcile Jews and Gentiles back to God and will rule the earth as not only the son of David but also as the Son of God. To our natural minds, this seems impossible: the infinite God coming to us as a finite man; “but with God all things are possible.”
