What are the biggest barriers today to Jewish people accepting Jesus as their Messiah?

How has the church's history of anti-Semitism hindered Jewish evangelism?

And what is the future of the Messianic movements among the Jewish people?

When we answer these questions and more with our guest today, Dr. Mitch Glazer,

president of Chosen People Ministries and Director of Talbot's Extension in

Messianic Jewish Ministry in Brooklyn, New York. I'm your host, Scott Ray.

And I'm your co-host, Sean McAow.

This is Think Biblically from Talbot School of Theology at Biola University.

Mitch, so glad to have you with us, and looking forward to hearing a little bit more about some of what you've worked on in the history of the messianic

movement and the history of Jewish evangelism. Well, looking forward to it, and shalom, my brothers.

So tell me, you've been invested in studying sort of the modern outreach movements to the Jewish people

for some time. Now, you had a, you had a ministry that is a part of that.

It has been a part of that for a long time, but what specifically sort of sparked your interest

in this particular project? Well, of course, it's personal because I'm a messianic Jew.

The actual spark for my studies, which basically deal with the 19th, 20th centuries, and now we're

working on the 21st, but not a whole lot of research yet.

We're still new.

But very heavily on the 20th century, particularly pre-Holocast and during the

Holocaust and post-Holocust has been a real interest. And what spurred me on was I needed to know

whether or not my grandparents who came just before the Holocaust from Minsk to New York City,

I needed to know whether or not they ever had a chance to hear about Jesus.

And so it was very deeply personal.
