Publisher's 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.

Good audio book.

This was a good audiobook but really short for a subject that spanned thousands of years. I did enjoy it just want more

This was a great listening experience. I learned a great deal about the history. I come from Jewish ancestry, so I've always wanted to take a deeper dive into their history and origins.

This book serves as a fantastic insight into the long and difficult history of the Jewish people. While not exhaustive it highlights the most important parts of the Jewish peoples 4 thousand year history.

Golden ratio

This book does a great job of covering a majority of the history in a reasonable time frame and depth. It’s an impressive feat that reads easily. It’s a great overview that provides just enough context to get you started in whatever time period you find most interesting, while framing it within the whole.

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.

Excellent presentation and information!

anyone who is interested in learning about Jewish history. I hope there will still be an Israel to speak about in future updates!
