Jews for Jesus by Moishe Rosen, William Proctor (1974, Book)

Inevitably, Christian missionary organizations feel compelled to publish a volume of apostate testimonies. Ruth Rosen's book, compiled for the Jews for Jesus organization, is one more example of such volumes intended to sell Jesus to the Jews. Ms. Rosen's work contains two main sections. The first, "Testimonies," presents the testimonies of apostates, while the second, "Continuations of the Case," attempts to present scriptural support for the act of apostasy.
Ms. Rosen presents an impressive array of personal testimonies of Jewish apostates to support the case for Christianity. Yet, accounts of subjective personal perceptions provide neither evidence nor proof that Jesus is the Messiah. Subjective experience and suggestibility are outside the realm of acceptable evidentiary material.
Moishe Rosen's introduction to this volume (edited by his daughter, Ruth) shows him to be a master of missionary duplicity.

For many fundamentalist Christians, the refusal of "unbelieving Israel" to accept Jesus as Messiah has been at least as disturbing as it has been prophetic. Although this unbelief has been explained by Pauline theology (Romans 11:25), Christians have never been comfortable with the presence of "unbelieving Israel." "Why don't Jews believe in Jesus?" poses Moishe Rosen in stating the Christian problem (p. i). "It seems to them that if anyone ought to believe in Jesus, it should be the Jewish people" (p. i). Their uneasiness reflects the corollary to the Christian problem: Perhaps, the Jews' rejection of Jesus is based on solid evidence which shows something about his claims that Christians are afraid to confront honestly. Fundamentalist Christians act out their resultant anxieties by supporting missionary efforts among the Jews.
In her Conclusion, Ms. Rosen reminds her readers that "He [Jesus] was also gentle, sensitive, wise, compassionate and loving" (p. 307); "Y'shua condemned sin, but never condemned the sinner" (p. 308); "He commanded kindness toward the Jewish people" (p. 309). These statements are inaccurate, to say the least. One wonders if Ms. Rosen has ever read the New Testament. Perhaps, she was absent from Sunday School the day they read how the supposedly loving Jesus commanded, "But these enemies of mine, who did not want me to reign over them, bring them here, and slay them in my presence" (Luke 19:27); or perhaps she was out of the room when they read that the Jesus who allegedly never condemned the sinner said to Judas, "Woe to that man through whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born" (Matthew 26:24); or perhaps she was daydreaming when they read that the Jesus who reputedly commanded kindness toward the Jewish people said that upon them should "fall the guilt of all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah . . ." (Matthew 23:35). Thus, Jesus makes the Jews responsible for the murder of every righteous person, even those killed before the birth of Abraham, the progenitor of the Jewish people!
Anyway it is expressed, Jesus for Jews or Jews for Jesus, these are not viable alternatives to God's truth. The New Testament prepared the way for Christian persecution of the Jewish people. This does not infer that all Christians hate or persecute Jews; many are truly embarrassed by the vicious anti-Jewish contents of the New Testament. Others, like Ruth Rosen, submerge their heads beneath the water of baptism and deny
