In this book, Harris Lenowitz explores the fascinating history of Jewish messianism. Looking in detail at all of the Jewish messiahs about whom anything is known, he introduces each of these figures in turn, and offers excerpts of the original texts that tell their stories. The messiahs whom we meet in these pages range from the inspiring to the tragic and bizarre. By examining the messianic idea in the tradition which gave birth to it, Lenowitz both sheds new light on this engrossing aspect of Jewish history and provides a firmer bases for understanding contemporary messianic groups.
