Love and the Messianic Age

With heartfelt gratitude to HaShem, Vine of David publishing is pleased to announce the release of our long-awaited book Love and the Messianic Age by Paul Philip Levertoff.

A Chasidic discourse from one of the pioneers of Messianic Judaism, crammed with stimulating thought and pervaded by real spiritual beauty, Love and the Messianic Age is a mint of good things and solid learning.

Paul Philip Levertoff (1878 - 1954), a Jewish believer from a Chasidic family with a classical Yeshivah education, summarizes the complex, esoteric teachings of Chasidic Judaism for the purpose of comparison and contrast with apostolic theology. Levertoff reveals a mystical thrust behind the Gospel and unfurls the Messianic concept of love--love for God and love of fellow--bound up with the experience of knowing God and fearing God, relationship to His Torah, and a life characterized by joy, prayer, and repentance. This is a book about experiencing God and attaining the revelation of the Messianic Era in the here and now.

Love in the Messianic Age is adorned in a magnificent, sturdy gold-embossed hard cover, and it would make a handsome and classic addition to any library. Its 87 pages contain a biography of the author and an introduction by D. Thomas Lancaster, as well as numerous footnotes.

Vine of David is also pleased to present the accompanying 175-page spiral-bound Love and the Messianic Age Study Guide and Commentary, which extensively elaborates and simplifies the complex and esoteric concepts presented in Levertoff's original work.

These two products are available now in our online store, and would make a wonderful and inspiring gift for budding and seasoned Messianic Torah scholars alike.
