The idea of a Jewish Church has been banned from the Christian horizon for almost two millennia. But things are changing. Since the middle of the 70s the Messianic Jewish movement has strived to build an ecclesial home for all Jewish believers in Christ. Les mer

Fr. Lévy has written an important book. With his critical analysis of various positions, he has profoundly and convincingly presented a case for continued Jewish identity and practice in Jesus. A challenge to church leaders and to Messianic Jews on the ecclesial unity of the Church.

Fr. AntoineLévy has written a very important book in which he engages in an intensive ecumenical dialogue with the ecclesiology of Mark Kinzer, perhaps the most articulate and profound exponent of the theology of Messianic Judaism. What makes this dialogue so fruitful is that Lévy Levy shares the foundational conviction of Kinzer on the need for a corporate Jewish presence in the Church that is structurally called from the circumcision and from the Gentiles. Lévy differs quite substantially, however, on the ecclesial and liturgical forms that ought to shape this Jewish dimension of the Church, so that it may remain in a catholic communion of faith, sacramental life, and hierarchical governance.

Lévy, a Catholic Jew, is facing the most crucial challenge of a fully catholic Ekklesia head-on: how do the two parts of humanity, the Jew and the non-Jew, come in the one fully restored catholic church of Jesus Christ? This book is a timely celebration of the 'coming home” of Jewish believers in the living Body of the Messiah.
