4The Pharisees Are Coming to Jesus: Secret Believers in Israel and America reveals how the Holy Spirit is removing the scales from the eyes of Orthodox Jews, the descendants of the Pharisees who opposed Jesus 2,000 years ago. In Israel today, Orthodox and Chasidic Jews meet privately as believers in Yeshua (Jesus) during the week but return to their usual synagogues on the Sabbath, waiting for the others to be inspired by the Holy Spirit. They are replicating the first Jewish believers in Jerusalem, who met secretly to worship Yeshua but continued to visit the Temple daily. After all, why would a Jew who has found Jesus to be the Messiah leave the Judaism that Jesus practiced? After revealing this, the author goes on to explore concepts in Judaism that were suppressed by the First Century rabbis as sounding too Christian. He then identifies these Christian truths hidden in Judaism by critically reviewing the biblical teachings of world-renowned Rabbi Samson Raphael Hirsch, who often sounds like a Spirit-filled evangelist whose eyes have been opened. "Anthony Cardinale is a gifted journalist and author who has immersed himself for over 30 years in a move of God that is for the most part unknown to most Christians. I'm referring to a promise God made throughout the Scriptures to restore the Jewish People to Himself at a set time in history (Jeremiah 3l:33-34). Anthony is on the forefront of this revival. This, his third book, follows The Red Heifer: A Jewish Cry for Messiah, and The Revolt of Rabbi Morris Cohen." - RABBI JONATHAN BERNIS, President, Jewish Voice Ministries, International.
