This book contains Philip Mauro's detailed examination of scripture, in support of an argument against those who believe that Christ's promises are not yet fulfilled and have yet to come. The Hope of Israel gains its title from the fact that many dispensationalist Christians believe that some future event or fulfillment of Biblical lore will occur within Israel. Seeking to prove such assertions false and wrongheaded, Mauro proceeds to methodically and carefully cite passages within the Old and New Testaments which specifically concern the land of Israel. Prophecies such as Ezekiel and the warnings of God to humankind through Moses receive much discussion. The New Testament figure Paul's interpretation of the Old Testament prophecies on Israel are also cited in support of Mauro's hypothesis, which asserts notions of a nation of Israel being a fulfillment of Old Testament lore are ill-founded. The final chapter of the book comprise is a passionate call against the establishment of a Jewish State. Twenty-six years after this book was first published in 1922, Israel was formally established as a nation, with arguments by scholars such as Mauro rejected in favor of the post-World War II consensus that the Jews should have their own lands in which to settle. In his lifetime, Philip Mauro held an exceptional and hard-won comprehension of the Biblical scriptures and theology. His studies, of which he wrote several, became popular for combining clarity and depth; every one of his books demystifies the stranger passages of the Bible, enabling Christians to understand and benefit from the wisdom.
