About this listen

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

Excellent synopsis

This was very informative for me and it proved especially to be a reminder of Bible stories I was familiar with, the history of the Jewish people during the early Common Era, and an explanation of the conflicts during the 20th and 21st centuries. It also included a short summary at the end of the narrative.

So informative.

A complete and well-balanced history that doesn't rely on religious explanations to tell its story.

Clarity with understandable narrative.

The tangled story of the Israel people finally becomes clear. Some great powers sure made tangles into knots.

Excellent historical narrative

This book made clear path to understanding a very important subject. The struggle of freedom of one group of people and how history can repeat itself if we don’t learn the first time
