Synopsis

Israel Restored: Or, The Scriptural Claims Of The Jews Upon The Christian Church: Lectures Delivered During Lent, 1841, At The Episcopal Chapel, West Street, London is a collection of lectures delivered by twelve Church of England clergymen during Lent in 1841, edited and prefaced by William Robert Fremantle. The works argue that the Jewish people occupy a central, scriptural role in God’s plan and that the restoration and conversion of Israel are to be fulfilled in a literal, future event. The volume surveys major covenants—Abrahamic, Davidic, and the new covenant—as the basis for God’s promises to Israel, and discusses the dispersion of the Jews, the predicted return to the land of Canaan, the restoration of Jerusalem, and Israel’s conversion. It also advocates Christian duty to support Jewish causes and to spread the Gospel to Jews, situating these hopes within a millennial framework. With exegetical analysis, historical context, and exhortations for practical Christian action, the book reflects a 19th-century Christian Zionist perspective.”,
