Publisher's Synopsis
"Did not our heart burn within us while He talked with us on the road, and while He opened the Scriptures to us?" - Luke 24:32
On the day of Jesus' miraculous resurrection from the dead, two of His followers found themselves in confusion and deep despair in the aftermath of His brutal execution, which seemed to destroy all their hopes. But as they journeyed down the road to the town of Emmaus, the risen Christ met them in disguise and shared with them a remarkable message that forever changed their lives. "Then Jesus took them through the writings of Moses and all the prophets, explaining from all the Scriptures the things concerning himself" (Luke 24:27, NLT). That unique and mysterious lesson from Christ to His disciples on the Emmaus road is the inspiration for The Emmaus Road Old Testament.
If you've ever struggled to read the Old Testament Scriptures or failed to see their relevance to your life, The Emmaus Road Old Testament is for you. By examining Biblical prophecies, pre-incarnate appearances of the Son of God, and types of Jesus Christ in the Old Testament, The Emmaus Road Old Testament seeks to uncover the Christ of the Old Testament and bring these ancient Scriptures alive to the modern reader.
