Dr. David Stern is best known as the translator of The Jewish New Testament, a bestselling version of the New Testament which does things like give Jesus his Hebrew name (Yeshua) and put many words back into a Jewish setting, such as translating "law" as Torah. He is also the author of a book which was heavily used in the pioneer days of Messianic Judaism and still is (in a slightly updated version), called The Messianic Jewish Manifesto.Dr. Stern and his wife, Martha, live in Israel (and have since the 70's). He has a PhD from Princeton in Economics. His ideas about a Judaism centered on faith in Yeshua have been formative for hundreds of thousands of people and his books read by even more.
Rabbi Dauermann says of this broadcast, schedule for May 22, 2011: "This interview has the status of an historical document. To my knowledge, the combined content of this program is available nowhere else. This something no Messianic Jew or friend of Messianic Judaism should miss, and it is a program likely to be revisited again and again in ensuing years."
