Celebrating Biblical and Jewish holidays is most characteristic of
the Messianic Jewish movement, and it arouses much interest among
Gentile Christians. This practice arose in the struggle of Hebrew
Christians in the 19th century against "Christian assimilation".
From the 1970s onwards, a new generation of Messianic Jews
identified strongly with their people's socio-cultural heritage,
including the practice of Sabbath, Pesach and other Jewish
holidays. A thorough analysis of calendars, reinterpretations,
observances and motives shows that this is a novel,
Christian-Judaic practice. Why and how do Gentile Christians adopt
it? To return to "Jewish roots"? What does this term stand for? As
the author takes up these questions, he shows that this is rather a
contextualisation of the Gospel.
