What is post-supersessionist interpretation? A page on the site explains:
Messianic Jewish (MJ) post-supersessionist interpretation maintains that the New Testament writers affirmed (1) God’s covenant fidelity to the Jewish people, (2) that Jesus was Israel’s Messiah and participated in the unique identity of the God of Israel, (3) that Jesus-believing Gentiles were full members of God’s people without becoming Jews, and (4) that Jesus-believing Jews should continue to live as Jews in keeping with Israel’s calling to be a distinct and enduring nation.Already the site is burgeoning with references to post-supersessionist books, essays, journal articles, conference papers, lectures and videos. I intend to use it as a go-to reference to scholarly works on various scriptural and theological issues.
The next time you find yourself looking for a commentary on a book or passage in the Apostolic Writings / Brit Hadasha, you can go to mjstudies.com and see what's been published from a post-supersessionist vantage point. And if you come across a resource which isn't on the site, you can suggest it via the site's contact form.
So check the site out by clicking below! Or better yet--follow the MJStudies blog to stay up-to-date on the latest resources!
On a related note, last month Tikvat Israel Messianic Synagogue of Richmond, Virginia welcomed Dr. Rudolph as their new rabbi. I, for one, am very glad to have Dr. Rudolph back on the east coast (and not too far from the D.C. area!). Given his history of providing helpful resources for the Messianic Jewish movement and beyond, I am excited to see what Dr. Rudolph will bring to Tikvat Israel, which is already a dynamic Messianic Jewish community. Mazel tov!
Update: Robin Parry of Theological Scribbles now has a blog post up highlighting the new site.
