درباره این ای-کتاب

It’s complicated!

For centuries the Middle East conflict was framed as “Arabs vs. Israel.” Now, in the aftermath of the recent Persian Gulf crisis, the political situation seems more difficult to understand. And you won’t find answers on cable news!

Dr. Michael Rydelnik, professor of Jewish studies at Moody Bible Institute, offers clarity by explaining current events in light of biblical history. For starters, the Islamic Republic of Iran is neither Arab nor Jewish, but -a third player who is now feared on both sides of the traditional conflict.

Get fresh, up-to-date information on the historical conflict and a political analysis of the various groups in occupied Palestine. Learn about the ongoing Gaza conflict—and reasons why the ongoing peace talks have failed.

Read this essential resource for an accurate understanding of how to think, speak, and pray about the Middle East conflict.
