Op het voor-schutblad van het hier geboden studiewerk staat in handschrift (balpoint) een hartelijke groet en een constatering van geloofs-verbondenheid, 'Pesach 2010'.

A review (to find in this book).
'History has always survived under the mighty hand of the victors. Unfortunately for us, that leaves us with a panegyric rather than an objectiv view. It is historically and biblicallly clear, however, that the Christian church spring forth from an Upper Room on Mount Zion as an entirely Jewish enterprise and brought with it much of the rich understandings and traditions of the original twelve apostles and their inner circle of 120 who first embraced Christ whom they called by his Hebrew name, Yeshua. At the martyrdom of Stephen in A.D.35, the gospel went out, being spread equally among the Gentiles and the Jews, often creating a denomination of racial background. Cities where the gospel became prominent divided into churches and synagogues for Christ.
Dr. Raymond Robert Fischer, a Jewish believer who was brought to faith in the Gentile Christian church, provides an important and exciting restoration of the understandings and traditions of "The Way" that contributes much to our better understanding of early church history. Dr. Robert Fischer in his work has captu-red the flavor of the Christian synagogue and recognized the differing sects within the Jewish Christian community.
"The Ways of the Way" is a refreshing history on how a Jewish community of believers would see its purpose
and contributions to modern Christianity. "The Ways of the Way" is of particular importance to those many home congregations that are now emerging and seeking to establish themselves on a more clearly under-stood foundation of the rich Jewish heritage of their faith.
