Commendations
The Jesus Discovery – Another Look at Christ’s Missing Years
" I bought a copy of your book "The Jesus Discovery". I found it to be quite
brilliant. I can only begin to understand how this information has been hidden for so long, buried under our
traditional view of Jesus as the Christ only. What Jesus really said about so many things is often buried and
distorted by the poor English translation of the original text. Your book has greatly enhanced my understanding
of his life and work as described in the gospels and, I feel, brought me much closer to him personally. Jesus
had a big job to open people's minds from their entrenched tradition and culture, as you have shown. I feel you
have opened the door here to a much greater understanding of him, not just intellectually but personally
also." |

| "I bought a copy of your book 'The Jesus Discovery' and I found it so very interesting
and wonderful. Years ago I spent 10 years working in a boarding school for gifted musicians and I can truly
understand the idea that the Jewish authorities would not have let Jesus, that bright clever young man at 12 years
of age, slip through their fingers. Thank you for all your work and the pleasure you have given me and many other
people." |

According To Matthew
"The Gospels provide a very rich seam for enquiring people of every subsequent generation to mine and rediscover both
historical and spiritual jewels. Dr Bradford surveys this ancient worthy book with 21st Century infomed and scientific
insight, drilling down to its vitals. A provocative and worthy follow up to his book on
the "missing years"." |

Matthew D Culmer (London) |

| "Important understandings to key biblical events with it's unquestionable contemporary
relevance. Dr Bradford seems a voice with an appetite for Gods good and wonderful truth rather then simplistic
or populistic conclusions." |

The New Testament on Women – What Every Man Should Know
"At long last here is a book that successfully manages to unveil some of the commonly
misunderstood verses in the New Testament relating to women. I whole-heartedly encourage men, as well as women to
read Dr Bradford's new book, `The New Testament on Women - The Scripture Unveiled.' Dr Bradford sets out to render
the `difficult' scriptures, written by Paul, regarding the treatment of women in the church, `less hard to
understand.' He achieves this with great clarity in a book that is both readable and clear. As a man, I found this book
particularly helpful in understanding how Paul followed Jesus' example of giving women equal status with men, yet
teaching about the different functions that men and women have within that equality.
Dr Bradford deals with
scriptures that have been used, by men, to oppress women over many centuries, and clearly shows how they have been
misused, and how these passages should be applied in a way which brings worth to all members of the church. As a
husband and father, it also instructed me in the ways I should be treating my family. This book is easy to read
and understand, and lends itself for deeper personal and small group study. Readers without any religious persuasion
will also find this book informative, and will no doubt appreciate how revolutionary the teachings of the New
Testament were when it was originally written. It challenges the stereotypical view, widely held, that it endorses
the suppression of women. It shows, quite clearly, the opposite. `I highly recommend it.'" |

| " Adam Bradford's book is a breath of fresh air as he demonstrates chapter by chapter
in his book how inaccurate translation and incorrect exegesis can colour our understanding of these parts of
Paul's writing, and sets out to show how in reality the New Testament "actually treats women with the greatest
degree of respect". His book explores what Paul actually teaches on some of these mistranslated passages on topics
such as women keeping silent in church, head coverings, authority and submission and others. Bradford shows how
both Paul and Peter follow Jesus' example in relating to women as equal in status and worth to men, which was
revolutionary at the time they were writing. I particularly loved the chapter he includes about how Jesus
related to women." |
