I recieved this book as a gift and I didn't really know if I was going to like it. After the first chapter, I was hooked. It's a very interesting read, and a great study guide. Being the type of person I am, I carefully looked up everything Mr. Chumney was referring to using the Bible and looking up history. I can't believe something this big is not taught in church. The book is set up to discuss the two houses of Israel (known as the house of Judah and the house of Israel) and how G-d's plan is to have them together again. Reading through history before reading this book, I saw the early Christian church breaking away from it's roots and more and more from the house of Judah rejecting their Messiah. Split up, the book goes over the Jewishness of Jesus (Yeshua) as the Christ (Messiah). It goes over some of the roots of some New Testament talks about that Christians may think they fully understand. One of my favorite chapters was about the background of the two houses, something I've never heard of in the Christian church, and then how the two will be joined together as mentioned even in Revelations. There's a lot of knowledge on every page, from G-d's 7,000 year plan to the UN Resolutions that promise peace and security. I think the only thing people may not grasp is the concept of Jewish mysticism, but when read with an open heart and mind, is easy to address because it's showing how even in Jewish mysticism, proof behind Jesus (Yeshua) is found. The book is written in plain English. In other words, it's very easy to follow and very straight forward. The one thing I liked is it's written so even Orthodox Jews will be able to read it, using "G-d" instead of just spelling it out. For those who think the Messianic movement is a joke or a 'cult' as I've seen in some places, I'd suggest maybe checking this book out and researching things for yourself. One thing I've noticed since breaking away from a Greek mindset is that some things that are flat out talked about in Acts, such as going to a person or group to ask them what they believe instead of taking someone elses word for it, is ignored. Do your own research, without using people that hate anything outside of their comfort zone. You'll find a new world and a dwelling of His Spirit that you will build a home for inside your body.
Very important read for the entire House of Israel!

This book has been very informative in breaking down the fundamental truths of our birthright in the covenant between G_d and Israel, The truth about the lost tribes of the Norhtern Kingdom and how all the nations are brought to our Elohim through His covenant with Israel. Other than The Scriptures, this has been the most important book i have read in my life. Truly this book and it's many references has been instrumental in helping me develop my foundation in Torah as well as help better understand the other books in The Scriptures. a must read for anyone seeking to lift the blinders that so many of us have been wearing for so long.
