As Though Hiding His Face

retelling the story

By: Julia Blum

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

Have you ever wondered why Jesus remained a hidden Messiah for the people of Israel? Why wasn’t He recognized by His own? And what does this have to do with you? Searching for the answers, Julia Blum examines a diverse array of Jewish texts from the Second Temple period and Old Testament and discovers the “hidden prophecy” about God’s concealment of the Messiah. She then takes her readers through the pages of the New Testament, showing that the Messiah was “as though” hiding His face from Israel. Even more important, she shows that also today, in our own walk, we mainly see “as though” things – and we cannot know God’s thoughts and God’s heart simply by looking at these “as though” things. If you want to hear the new answers to some old questions – this book is for you.
