Arnold Fruchtenbaum - Biography
Arnold was born in 1943 in Siberia, Russia. The family escaped to Germany in 1947 after his father had been accused of being a Nazi spy. He was taught as an Orthodox Jew by his father before emigrating to the United States in 1951. At age 13, Fruchtenbaum came to believe that Jesus was the Messiah. His father opposed this and forbade him to read the Bible, attend meetings, or otherwise meet with Jewish Christians. The family moved to Los Angeles in 1958.
After being forced to leave the family home, in 1962 he began college education at Shelton College in New Jersey. He moved to Cedarville College in Ohio, where he graduated with a BA degree in Hebrew and Greek in 1966.
Arnold married in 1968 to Mary Ann Morrow, a graduate of Gordon College in Massachusetts. Then in 1971 he earned his Master of Theology degree from Dallas. Next they moved to Israel and worked with the church there, causing such a stir that the religious authorities eventually made their stay untenable.
Moving back to New Jersey lead to the founding of Ariel Ministries in December 1977. Arnold is the founding director of the organisation and speaks about Christianity and Messianic Judaism.
He travels widely in Europe, Israel and the United States, and further afield such as to Australia and New Zealand.
