Q: Who is Yeshua?
A: Yeshua is the Hebrew way to say
Jesus. Hebrew is the original language (before the Tower of
Babel). Yeshua was a "Hebrew" or "Jewish".
The name "Yeshua" is a translitteration of the
Hebrew letters and not an actually spelling. A
translitteration is just a way to write in English letters the
sounds that the Hebrew letters make. The most popular way to
write our Messiah's name is "Yeshua"; however some write it in other
ways, such as: Y'shua or Yahshua.
Q: Can you recommend some good books written with a
Messianic Jewish perspective?
Yes, there are many great books out there, although you won't find
many of them locally. Below are some great books you can order
online.
Q:
How can I witness about Messiah to my Jewish friends?

great videos posted on our site that can help in this
area. Visit our Videos

Additionally,
one of the best ways to prepare yourself for an event
like this is to do as much reading and studying as you
can. You must truly understand and believe WHY
Yeshua is the Messiah in order to be able to witness to
others about it, especially your Jewish friends.
We should first turn to the Bible, but if you are
looking for a source that will lay it all out for you,
here are some other great books written by Jewish
believers in Messiah that will help explain the
most-debated points regarding Messiah.
