This book contains Philip Mauros detailed examination of scripture, in support of an argument against those who believe that Christs 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 fulfilment 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 Pauls interpretation of the Old Testament prophecies on Israel are also cited in support of Mauros hypothesis, which asserts notions of a nation of Israel being a fulfilment of Old Testament lore are ill-founded.
