Christ the Bridegroom and the church his Bride - Boulos Bishoy

Step back into the world of ancient Israel, to the time when Jesus walked the earth, and immerse yourself in the rich traditions of Jewish weddings. This book invites you to explore the profound connection between these ancient customs and the mystery of Christ's relationship with His church.

With deep reverence and insight, the author draws a beautiful parallel between the Jewish Bridegroom and Christ's role in the salvation story. Through this lens, the book brings a fresh perspective to key aspects of Christian life: the practices of prayer, fasting, Bible study and the seven sacraments of the church: Baptism, Chrismation, Repentance and Confession, the Eucharist, Matrimony, Priesthood and the Unction of the Sick. It will deepen your understanding of the sacraments and guide you to see them in a new light-one that reveals Christ not just as our Creator and Savior, but as a loving Bridegroom, pursuing His bride with unfathomable love.
