LONGWOOD, FL-Many Christian concepts today are foreign to the first-century church's Hebraic understandings, claims Rick Deadmond, author of The Betrothed Bride of the Messiah: Making Herself Ready for the Bridegroom (paperback, 978-1-60266-151-6).Ancient rabbinic writings help shed light on the true meaning of the New Testament Scriptures. The Festivals, or wedding rehearsals, were not only given to Israel but for all mankind to participate in the great "marriage." But in order to understand the significance of each event, it must first be accurately interpreted through the ancient Hebraic understanding and culture of its time.

Deadmond, a former pastor, attends both a local church and a Jewish synagogue and has used his technical skills as an engineer to logically compare ancient rabbinic writings to the Bible to deduce accurate understandings. Through his studies he has come to believe that many Christians are caught up in worldly agendas and do not know how to make themselves prepared to meet the coming Bridegroom. This book goes a long way in establishing God's rehearsal plan.

"Amidst all the prophecy books in the market today that speak of different timings of things to come, this book will lay prophetic events out in a biblical and Hebraic way based upon the understandings of the prayers and rituals that God gave Israel for the Festivals," says Deadmond.

Rick Deadmond has been active in Messianic ministry and continues to distinguish himself in Christian and Jewish circles by his study and understanding of rabbinic literature and biblical research. He makes his home in Rockford, Illinois, with his wife and their two adopted sons.
