A great podcast, despite my disagreement
As an evangelical Christian with an intimate knowledge of the issues that Rabbi Singer brings up here, I truly do enjoy the Rabbi's podcast. Never have I heard specific details of Christians' messianic and end-times belief tackled so head-on by a Jew. Rabbi Singer obviously has a great knowledge of the Tanakh and can quote many New Testament verses from memory. This podcast has greatly helped in my understanding of the typical Orthodox Jewish perspective about Christianity. Despite this praise, Rabbi Singer often gives shallow, one-sided arguments that are easily refutable. Nearly every claim of "mistranslation" he points out can be traced to the New Testament's reliance on the Greek Septuagint, rather than the Masoretic Hebrew that the Rabbi reads. His podcasts on Isaiah 53 never once mention the overwhelming chorus of historical rabbis that have stood up to interpret it of a suffering Messiah. His "atonement" lecture gives a shallow lecture that completely does away with the Torah's requirement of blood sacrifice - and he does this by citing one or two verses that seem to say that sacrifice is unneeded (despite the fact that sacrifice continued unabated until forcibly stopped by the Romans). These are just a few examples of holes in the Rabbi's arguments. Thank you, Rabbi Singer, for posting these lectures, as it is strengthening my faith in Yeshua as my Messiah and teaching me how to reach out to Jewish friends like yourself.

Great podcast, highly recommended for anyone, Jew and non-Jews who are interested in understand why Jews refuse to believe in Jesus. An amazing journey through Scriptures.

This is a must for any serious student of the Bible. What you should know, but never hear at your church (or at most synagogues for that matter). You will never think of the Bible the same way again. Penatrating analysis, without the polemics.
