📖 About the Book
‘Twas Christmas to Passover: God’s Graphic Image of a Savior Who Would Die for His People is a spiritually profound work by Dr. Stephen S. Ahokas, DVM. The book uncovers the often-overlooked prophetic significance embedded in the circumstances of Christ’s birth. Far from being a mere celebration of a miracle, the nativity was a divine message—rich in symbolism—given to the Jewish people, proclaiming that the Messiah was born to die for the sins of humanity.
Through this work, Dr. Ahokas bridges the theological gap for both Jewish and Gentile Christians, offering a compelling interpretation of the phrase, “Worthy is the Lamb,” rooted deeply in its original context.
💡 What Inspired the Book?
In a revealing interview, Dr. Stephen S. Ahokas shares that this book arose from a deeply held conviction: that generations of both Jews and Christians have missed the powerful sign God gave through Jesus’s birth. He reflects on how, for nearly 2,000 years, the church has repeated “Worthy is the Lamb” without fully understanding its profound Jewish meaning and prophetic depth.
