The New Testament and the Law: A New Testament Study on the Validity of Jewish Law
by Michael W. Marks

A.W. Tozer said, "Every time a Christian picks up his Bible he is reminded of his debt to the Jews. It is an astonishing thing that multitudes of Bible students and lovers of the truth should calmly overlook their obligation to Israel." This book is a study on the validity of the Old Testament Jewish Law and traditions in the life of the modern Christian. It clears the confusion concerning what part the Old Testament still plays in the life of the Believer. Many hold to the idea that the only value and purpose the Torah has is historical and poetical, and that it lacks any real legitimacy in governing the modern-day believer. Yet, in spite of this confusion and supposed outdatedness, many Jewish and Gentile Christians have taken up a search for a historical, Biblical lifestyle and have returned to some of the early Jewish traditions and practices as outlined in the Old Testament. This book portrays a zealous attempt by the author to rediscover Scriptural roots and heritage for all Believers.
