This is the second of two courses covering the Messianic Jewish Epistles.  These short but very important epistles are rarely, if ever, taught from a Messianic Jewish perspective, yet the authors of these epistles and the original recipients of these epistles were Jewish believers in Yeshua.  In addition to teaching approach, we will provide a verse-by-verse exposition that will fully cover the important doctrinal and theological truths.
