Israelology: Who Is Israel? A Berean Inquiry into the Three-Category Distinction - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

WHO IS ISRAEL?

The most consequential theological question of the terminal generation is one the American church has been catechized to answer badly.

Is Israel the covenantal people of God across two millennia — grafted, purified, brought to full number in Christ? Is Israel the twentieth-century political nation-state? Is Israel the Jewish people whom the LORD calls beloved for the fathers' sakes under Romans 11:28-29?

The answer is all three, distinctly — and refusing to distinguish them has cost the church her prophetic voice, her Berean floor, and her ability to read the terminal hour.

ISRAELOLOGY · WHO IS ISRAEL? is a sixteen-part Berean inquiry into the Three-Category Distinction that walks Scripture against Scripture until the framework holds under stress.

WHAT'S INSIDE

• Paul's Olive Tree — the master metaphor at full weight
• The 144,000, Moses and Elijah, Jacob's Trouble — Luginbill's Tribulation framework applied
• Ezekiel's Prophetic Calendar — covenant taxonomy and the 70 AD deadline
• The False Prophet · The Image of the Beast — Ken Klein and Edward May on institutional machinery, 1948, and Zephaniah's warning
• Bless the Seed — Steven Ben-Nun's grammatical demolition of "bless Israel" via Genesis 12:3 and Galatians 3:16
• Where Are the Tribes? — Sargon II, the Assyrian scattering, the paleogenomic witness
• The Fullness of the Gentiles — Jacob's blessing of Ephraim, melo ha-goyim, Ezekiel 34, and what modern theology missed about Joel 3
• The Thirteenth Tribe · Genetic Gates · The People in the Land · The True Gathering · The Serpent of Dan — Khazar hypothesis, DNA architecture, Palestinian genetics, Matthew 24, and the Antichrist

Three Epilogues integrate Dr. Michael S. Heiser's Divine Council scholarship and close on the Lineage-and-Gospel Lock.

PEER-WITNESS STACK

Every claim is triangulated across Dr. Robert D. Luginbill (Ichthys), Dr. Michael S. Heiser (The Unseen Realm), Steven Ben-Nun (Israeli News Live), Ken Klein, Edward May, plus primary sources and paleogenomic research.

BEREAN DISCIPLINE

Every claim is tested against the whole counsel of Scripture. Nothing is asserted as final where the text holds tension. Acts 17:11 is the floor.

FOR THE READER

For the Christian who felt something was wrong with pulpit teaching on Israel but could not name it. For the pastor navigating congregational politics on Middle East questions. For the Berean who wants the Hebrew grammar, the primary sources, and the scholarly witnesses without the ideological freight.
