Are You The One Who Is To Come?
Did Jesus claim to be the long-awaited 'messiah'? This book argues that he did. It explores the messianic expectations in the Old Testament and Second Temple Jewish literature. It also points out weaknesses in arguments that 'Messiah', or 'Christ', was a title given to Jesus by the early church but not used by Jesus himself.
