The Story of Joseph Wolff

Early in life, the German Jew Joseph Wolff (1795-1862) accepted Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah. From 1821, he travelled widely to share his convitions with other peoples - - - e.g. to Egypt, Mesopotamia, Jerusalem, Persia, the USA, the Crimea, Afghanistan, Yemen, Ethiopia, and India. In Bukhara (Uzbekistan), as in Yemen, he met peoples who shared his belief that the second coming of Christ would soon take place.
