Arsenal Note:This book, Touching the Hem, is taken from the more expanded book Hem of His Garment. Please note that if you buy both books you will get some repeated chapters/material. Touching the Hem is one of the Golden Key Press Living Emblems Series, featuring in-depth analysis of the material objects that reveal Gods will for both Jews and Christians. Biblical emblems were designed to emphasize divine truths and to call believers to remembrance of their responsibility to worship and honor their Creator. Failure to understand the implications of these important symbols has robbed millions of Christians of vital, spiritually enriching information. Believers who are recovering the Hebrew foundations of their Christian faith are discovering amazing historical and spiritual truths, including those represented by the symbols of the Hebrew Scriptures that clearly reveal Christianitys Jewish connection. Touching the Hem presents these vivid images of a rich biblically Hebraic tradition: - Jewish traditions about the mantle that Jesus wore
- The powerful images associated with the hem of the garment
- Lessons for Christians from Jewish prayers and blessings
- Why the sick wanted to touch the hem of Jesus garment
When you read this volume, your life will be enriched as you come to understand the great biblical impact that even the clothing Jesus wore had upon those to whom he ministered.
