| Boast Not Against the Branches By Douglas Wilson |
I just finished reading Boast Not Against the Branches by Douglas Wilson. It is still free on Amazon, but only for another day, I believe. I finished it about 2 minutes ago and I started it this morning. It took me about an hour to read the entire book. I started it, I read it, I finished it, and now I am recommending it.
The subtitle of this book is The Reformed Tradition and the Jews. The first half of the book works through a multitude of quotes and references from the 16th century to the present, regarding how those influential theologians, authors, and preachers/pastors have referenced the Jews, based on their understanding of the Scriptures. Meaning: how did they view the Jewish people of their day and how they perceived their future. The second half of the book is an updated and revised portion of Douglas Wilson's commentary on Romans. In the portion he includes, he exposits the 11th chapter of Romans. This exposition combined with the insights of those pastors and teachers from the last 500 years builds a helpful foundation, not only for understanding the Jewish people, but also for how we might consider our and their futures.
Again, I highly recommend this book. Get it while it is still free.
