Summary

If you want to discover the captivating history of the Jews, then pay attention....

The Jewish people are one of the oldest living people groups on the planet. The Jews lived alongside the ancient Egyptians, Babylonians, Phoenicians, and Sumerians - all of whom have since disappeared from the pages of history. Yet the Jews still remain. Despite all of the odds, Jewish culture, language, laws, and religion have remained intact over the course of thousands of years.

Even after being kicked out of their homeland and scattered all over the globe, the Jews were able to hold their customs close to their heart. While in exile, they developed special rules to live by through rabbinical works, such as the Talmud, which gave them a moral compass by which to live, no matter where they might end up. This was a great source of comfort for the Jewish people even while having to live in less than encouraging environments. Their traditions kept them strong.

In History of the Jews: A Captivating Guide to Jewish History, Starting from the Ancient Israelites through Roman Rule to World War 2, you will discover topics such as

  • The origin story of the Jewish people
  • How the Jews first established Israel
  • About the judges and kings who ruled Israel
  • The Babylonian captivity
  • Life under Roman rule

Good book, but emotionally biased towared judaism

Short, precise and to the point. Very well written with some captivating stories.
However the conclusions are more emotional than practical. Specially the formation of modern day Israel was told by making one side look evil and other side look good.
