There’s only one conclusion you can draw by taking the prophecies of the Bible literally, says New York Times bestselling author Joel Richardson. Someday soon, a Jew named Yeshua – or Jesus, as he’s known in the West – will rule the world from Jerusalem.

In his new book, When a Jew Rules the World, Richardson paints a picture of what that one-thousand-year reign will be like, along the way blow-torching the notion that gentile Christians have "replaced" the Jews and Israel as the people of promise. Richardson lays out the tragic history of anti-Semitism within the church from the very beginning in what may be the most thorough repudiation of what has become known as “Replacement Theology,” or, as Richardson calls it, “Supersessionism.”

Joseph Farah, founder of WND.com, calls When a Jew Rules the World “one of the most important books of our time – a chance for Christians to rediscover their true identity as fellow heirs of promise with the House of Israel, the wild olive branches grafted into the tree of the Abrahamic Covenant. Paul explained how we are grafted into that tree. The tree is not dead. It hasn’t been uprooted. It’s still very much alive, as Richardson so masterfully demonstrates through scripture.”

Chuck Missler praises When a Jew Rules the World, calling the book, “A must read for the serious Christian.” 

  • What exactly is the Abrahamic Covenant, and is it still relevant today?  
  • Has the New Testament done away with the Old Testament?  
  • Is the Church the new and true Israel? 
  • What is the Kingdom of God?
  • What lies ahead for the State of Israel?
  • How should gentile believers relate to unbelieving Jews? 

Richardson answers these questions and more as he carefully walks the reader through the most essential passages of the Bible that must be understood if one desires to combat the growing Christian anti-Semitism. As the rage and resistance of Satan to God’s plans with Israel continues to spread throughout the earth, now is the hour for discerning Christians everywhere to arm themselves with a clear understanding of these profoundly importand and foundational matters.

Excellent! This made a lot of sense for ideas I had already felt to be correct, but based on limited knowledge. Now I understand why I believed what I’ve believed and have strengthened my resolve in these convictions.
Reviewed in the United States on April 25, 2015
Absolutely Valuable!

This is another demonstration of Joel Richardson's love for God, his love love for Israel and the credibility he ascribes to the Word of God.

Mr. Richardson's research of church history is thorough and factual, unsettling to say the least, and eye-opening to the point where each person's own membership in any of the past or present church organizations bears profound scrutiny and self-examination.

The platform in this book, as it is in all of Richardson's other books, is the affirmation that the word of God and His promises are sure, that the love of God is sure, and that the sovereignty of God is absolute: the Lord will return, and He will return to His beloved land.

From a strictly nationally Jewish perspective, Mr. Richardson is completely on target. Under Christ, the world will submit to Jewish rule--hence the adverbial designation in the book's title is "when", not "if". Any serious student of the Scripture can prove from Scripture that what Mr. Richardson asserts in this respect is true.

There is one thing, however, that seems almost a little ironic. While Mr. Richardson's exposition on supersessionism in terms of much of Christianity's historic and current behavior is totally true and provable, he seems, in a sense, somewhat guilty of supersessionism himself in so far that he does not differentiate between the Lord's role as King of Israel (and, by extension, the world) and His role as the Head of His body (the church).

Perhaps it is a misunderstanding on this reader's part, but, in essence, Mr. Richardson places the body of Christ (of which true believers from throughout the church age are members) back under the millennial King when, in reality, they are forever attached to the Head. According to the sure word of God (Ephesians 1:4), these members of the body are as good as seated with Christ (their Head) in the Heavenlies. When Christ returns, His body (the believers of the church age) will become manifest with Him. "Church History", at that point, will have been concluded, i.e., the body, which was approximately two thousand years in the making, has been built.

My point is, Mr. Richardson does not address the fact that the body of Christ (believers of all nations, including Israel, from throughout the church age) will fulfill a purpose that has been established BEFORE the foundation of the world and will find its fulfillment in the heavenly realm (Ephesians 3:10-11); whereas the purpose of Israel has been established with Abraham (after the foundation of the world) and will find its fulfillment in the future millennial Jewish rein. This promise was made in Genesis 12.

So we must be careful as to not exercise supersessionism in reverse, i.e., Israel assuming the function of the body of Christ. After all, Israel, along with all the believers grafted in before and after the church age, will eventually become the beloved Bride of the Lamb (Christ); now Logic dictates that the Lord's body cannot be His bride.

May I emphasize that this review is not a criticism of Mr. Richardson's work; it is simply something that should be pointed out in conjunction with "rightly dividing the word of truth" so that we may understand the distinctly different tasks of Israel (on the millennial rein on earth) and that of the body of Christ (from the eternal Heavenlies).

Much can be learned from Mr. Richardson's work and from the thorough research represented in his books. I hope he never stops teaching.

As Messianic believers of 40 years and having come under the teachings of Friends of Israel Gospel Ministries and Ariel Ministries, my husband and I found Joel Richardson in this book explicitly in line with what we were taught, which included a Judeo-centric view of Holy Bible, Old and New Testaments. Joel also emphasizes the Covenant-relationship that God has with His chosen people. The early church departure from its Jewish roots by its interpretation of Scripture through allegorization (rather than a literal understanding of Scripture which was God’s original intent) led to anti-Jewishness, separating the interpretations and practices of the church from Jewish centrality, which led to the current status of most churches today being its present anti-Israel position and division which led to sectarianism, disunity, denominationalism, and ultimately detracting from the power and message of the church’s original call. The author’s thesis and treatment by giving examples is most laudable. We heartily recommend any serious believer to investigate the premises put forth in this volume.

We are attending an inter-denominational church where our pastor had not addressed the issue of Israel and the Holocaust until recently in a 3-part series. He gave credit to the research that he found primarily in this volume and made reference to Joel’s book. We were very appreciative and have purchased several copies to give to friends and church leaders, in order to enlighten them as to the stated truths. We cannot find exception to any of the premises that were presented. Some of the subjects covered are in the sub-title “What the Bible really says about Israel in the Plan of God”. Joel started with a cautionary note about ignorance and arrogance, restoration vs. Supercessionism of Christians, the Abrahamic, Mosaic and Davidic Covenants, the New Covenant, the coming Kingdom of God, the Restoration of the Jewish Kingdom. Part II: Christian Jew Hatred from the 4th century to the Holocaust, Islamic Supercessionism, New Christian anti-Semitism. Part III: the Last Days in Judgment, prophesied Return to the Land, Satan’s rage against Jewish fulfillment, Jacob’s troubles, examples of Christians through Dietrich Bonhoeffer, Corrie ten Boom and the subsequent judgments of the nations (all found in the Table of Contents and well written from a believer who has lived in the Middle East for decades, sharing his experience and study, conversation with the local inhabitants, giving us his insights as to a clearer prophetic understanding in our time.

5.0 out of 5 stars Incisive, sobering and exceptional
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on May 5, 2016
This is an exceptional book. It has an excellent explanation of biblical covenants and exposes the errors of amillennialism. Joel Richardson has the knack of explaining Scripture in a straightforward, clear and incisive style. In looking forward to the glorious future reign of Messiah Jesus, he aims to prepare the hearts of believers for the testing times that are ahead for both the church and Israel. One whole section of the book deals with the origins, development and ongoing plague of shameful anti-Semitism in the church. The facts on this 'Christian Jew-hatred' are shocking, including often excused or over-looked statements from men such as Chrysostom, Augustine and Martin Luther. The table comparing church laws or decrees to Nazi laws or measures, is intensely sobering, especially as many Christian books deliberately ignore or gloss over these issues. I hope many Christians, and especially many church leaders, read this book and take it to heart.

As usual Joel Richardson puts the issue of Semitism and anti Semitism into perspective particularly regarding end times theology. And how the misguided theology of the established church has affected its present attitude.
