"Like Habakkuk, Israel has been on his own journey to maturity and shared this with us in this captivating and challenging volume. Looking through the lens of 1 John's categories of children, young men and fathers we can chart our own progress and identify features of our own spiritual development. Israel has also matured as a writer, and this is his clearest and most compelling book so far. Don't hesitate here, it's a wonderful, biblically rooted help to guide you along the road to maturity." - John Clevely, Teaching Pastor, Beulah Family Church, Regions Beyond, UK

We are heading for 4th elections in just over a year. Interesting times. I know one thing - God is in control. We are slowly coming out of the Corona.

I am a husband, father, grandfather, writer, and a teacher. I write in Hebrew and then the books are translated. So far my books have been translated into English, German, and Dutch.

I try to give a point of view that brings out the Jewish – Hebrew insights about the texts.

I very much hope you enjoy this site, my books and Pearls from my Quiet Time. Please feel free to share and link.

What people are saying about the books.

“Enter the Rest” stands out from the crowd as a commentary on the Epistle to the Hebrews BY A HEBREW. While most western commentators stress Hellenistic influences on the writers of the New Testament, Israel Harel peers behind the text at the rich cultural and linguistic milieu of the Hebrew world. Seeing that the vast majority, if not all, of the writers of the Bible were Jews, we would be negligent to ignore the Hebrew roots of our New Covenant faith. Israel Harel is not only scholarly in his approach to the text, but he also provides the reader with a deeply spiritual perspective and practical application to daily life. I highly recommend this book.

The great message of the book of Hebrews is “God has spoken to us in His Son.” In his book, Enter the Rest, Harel shows us how to listen to God and how by obeying Him, we can enter His rest. I strongly recommend that everyone read this book as it was very beneficial for me. I believe that Harel’s style, the examples he uses, as well as quotes from Scripture and Jewish sources, make this book suitable for Bible students as well as for the average reader. I’ve known Israel since before he became a believer and have seen God’s hand in His life.

“An inspiring read!” Harel has made a valuable contribution with “Enter the Rest” for which we in the Israeli Messianic community are very grateful. The book is of excellent academic standard while remaining entirely approachable to everyone. The Letter to the Hebrews is challenging to the Jewish community and Harel has truly captured the essence of these challenges and personalised them for us. The quality of this valuable addition to our libraries speaks for itself, both in content and style. It should not however remain in our libraries but be a ‘gift’ we can be proud to present to our friends and neighbours as a tool that speaks to the heart.”

About Israel

Israel Harel was born to a secular Jewish family who came as pioneers to the Land of Israel in the early 20th century. Israel heard the Gospel for the first time as a hippie in the early seventies. Not wanting anybody to tell him what to do, he ran away from God for six years. After living homeless in the streets and spending two and a half years in a mental hospital, Israel finally gave himself up and surrendered to Jesus, who did a great work of healing in Israel’s life. He came back to Israel and helped pioneer many Evangelistic works around the country. He has also reached out to lost people for the Lord in South Africa and the US. After serving in foreign lands for ten years he came back to Israel. He pastored and led the work of starting a new Hebrew speaking Messianic congregation in the Jezreel Valley (Armageddon) in northern Israel. Israel has used his teaching and speaking gifts in many parts of the world. He is married to Shlomit and has three sons and five grandchildren.
