Prophetic Proofs That Jesus Is the Messiah
Publisher: Christian Resources, June 2003
Author: William Webster
I am the way, and the truth and the life; no man comes to the Father but by
Me - I am the Son of God - I am the Messiah - I am the resurrection and the life. These are just a few of the remarkable claims made by Jesus Christ. In our pluralistic age, many today view these claims as arrogant and narrow. The question is, Are they true?
In Behold Your King, William Webster examines the historical evidence for the fulfillment of Old Testament prophecy in the life of Jesus, prophecies written
hundreds of years before his birth.
Behold Your King provides one of the most extensive documentations of Jewish interpretation of messianic prophecy in the English language, from the Talmud, Targums, Midrash and Rabbinic sources, proving that the primary New Testament teachings concerning the Messiah are supported by these ancient Jewish writings.
A careful and honest examination of the historical facts can lead us to only one
conclusion: Jesus Christ is the long promised Messiah, the Son of God, the Savior and King of all nations.
Endorsements:
Bill Webster has done the Christian community a great service by compiling the prophetic evidence for authenticating Jesus as the fulfillment of “all the law and the prophets.” Webster interacts not only with the biblical evidence but also with ancient rabbinic sources to show that the Christian understanding of key messianic texts in the Old Testament were understood in that same way by the ancient Jews. I highly recommend this work to anyone interested in strengthening his own faith, or in demonstrating to the skeptic that Jesus is the Christ, the Anointed One of God.

Behold Your King is a must read book by pastors, teachers, and the layman. Bill Webster presents a thoroughly researched case, where he looks not only into the traditional sources, but in depth into the Jewish commentaries and writings. This book will, no doubt serve many in their quest to be a better witness. Rabbi, Dr. Amnon J. Shor.
