List of Recommended Authors and Advice

Just because these authors are recommended does not mean that their books are without fault. Many of these authors do not believe in Y’shua (Jesus) as the Messiah, but the contributions they offer are extremely valuable in understanding the Jewishness of the Christian faith. This is also not a blanket endorsement for everything that the authors have written, but rather a general recommendation based on the fact that I have found much useful and helpful information from them. At the bottom of the page there is a search engine so that you can check these authors out. Please pray and seek G-d when studying or reading any of these books or others you might find that the Holy Spirit guide you in all truth as it glorifies the Father. Pray for discernment in all your studies. Remember that study without prayer is simply looking at words.
