God's Appointed Customs, by Barney Kasdan
Are the biblical Jewish just for Jews? Or can Christians also receive blessings by observing them? This book explains how God's appointed customs can be part of anyone's lifestyle. Jew or Gentile. This is especially relevant to believers in the Messiah, since Yeshua (Jesus) himself observed them. God's appointed Customs is divided into two sections. Biblical Lifecycle Biblical Lifestyle Covenant of Circumcision Doorposts Redemption of the Firstborn Dietary Laws Son/Daughter of the commandment Fringes Jewish Weddings Headcoverings Death & Mourning Phylacteries Each chapter offers historical background, traditional Jewish observance, relevance to the New Testament, and a practical guide to help believers observe these customs within the context of a biblical lifestyle. Barney Kasdan is leader of Kehilat Ariel, a thriving Messianic congregation located in San Diego. (I have attended at different times their services--Shirley Thrush)
