About this listen

What would it be like to journey back to the first century and sit at the feet of Rabbi Jesus as one of his Jewish disciples?

Join award-winning author Ann Spangler and Lois Tverberg as they reveal the Jewish Jesus that his first disciples knew.

Sitting at the Feet of Rabbi Jesus takes you on an in-depth tour of the Jewish world of Jesus, offering inspirational insights that will transform your faith. Spangler and Tverberg paint powerful scenes from Jesus' ministry, immersing you in the prayers, feasts, history, culture, and customs that shaped Jesus and those who followed him.

Within Sitting at the Feet of Rabbi Jesus, you'll:

  • Hear the parables as they must have sounded to first-century Jews
  • See the events of Jesus' life in a brand new light
  • Experience new excitement about the roots of your Christian faith
  • Learn how the customs, beliefs, and traditions of the Jewish culture can shift the way you view the gospel

This expanded edition also includes a discussion guide for both individuals and groups, and instructions for a simple home Passover Seder celebration.

Sitting at the Feet of Rabbi Jesus will change the way you listen to Scripture and deepen your understanding of the life of Jesus, helping you to adapt the rich prayers and customs and integrate them into your daily life.

Critic Reviews

Praise for Sitting at the Feet of Rabbi Jesus:

"Drawing upon personal experiences as well as the latest Jewish and Christian scholarship in Israel, the authors skillfully guide you on a wonderful journey into Jesus' first-century Jewish world--exploring his culture, his lifestyle as an itinerant sage, and his well-honed rabbinic teaching methods and subtle but startling messianic claims. This book makes you really eager to sit at the feet of Rabbi Jesus and learn from the One we joyously serve as both Messiah and Lord. I commend it to every follower of Jesus of Nazareth."

--Dwight A. Pryor, Center for Judaic-Christian Studies
