In The Messianic Hope, Dr. Michael Rydelnik, professor of Jewish Studies at the Moody Bible Institute, puts forth a thesis that the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) is a Messianic book. It was intended by its authors to be read as a messianic primer. He explains at length how the text reveals significant direct messianic prophecy when read in its final form. Users will find this excellent topical study, the sixth of the long-respected New American Commentary series, a key addition to their library.
