Parallels of Jesus in the Old Testament Vol. 2

By Jay Rice

The story of Jesus does not begin in Bethlehem. It is already moving in the pages of Ezra, Nehemiah, Esther, Job, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Ezekiel, Daniel, and the twelve so-called minor prophets. In Parallels of Jesus in the Old Testament, Vol. 2, Jay Rice invites you to trace how these books and key figures quietly prepare the way for Christ and point ahead to Him.

After His resurrection, Jesus said that "all things" written "in the Law of Moses and the Prophets and the Psalms" were about Him (Luke 24:44). He also said, "Search the Scriptures... these are they which testify of Me" (John 5:39). This volume takes that invitation seriously. It asks a simple question of each book from Ezra to Malachi. Where do we see Jesus here.

Building on the foundation of Volume 1, which followed parallels from Adam to Hezekiah, this second volume turns to the age of exile, rebuilding, and longing. You will meet scribes, wall-builders, queens, sufferers, and prophets, and you will see how their stories echo the person and work of Christ.

Inside you will find

Twenty chapters that highlight parallels between Jesus and key figures or books from Ezra through Malachi

Clear Scripture references so you can follow each trail in your own Bible

Brief explanations that show how each pattern, type, or shadow finds its fulfillment in Christ

A simple layout that works well for personal study, teaching, or preaching

Whether you are a pastor, teacher, or everyday Bible reader, Parallels of Jesus in the Old Testament, Vol. 2 is designed to sit open beside your Bible. It will help you read familiar passages with fresh eyes and grow in confidence that from Genesis to Malachi the "volume of the book" truly is written of Him.
