( ) I have had this book a long time, and recently rediscovered it on my bookshelf. I think I bought it at a thrift store. It is a used paperback in poor condition; the back cover is missing, but I don't know if any of the pages are lost. The index ends with the Vs, and it is possible that there was originally more. Seems like the word "Yiddish" would have been included. I started reading it because I have been curious about the history of the Jewish people since Biblical times. Now I am still in the Biblical era in my reading, and am unhappy. The author conjectures things that are contrary to Scripture. Sometimes I'm tempted to skip over until after the Roman destruction of the Temple, but I probably will continue as I am doing. A comprehensive history of the Jewish people, which views that history as a part of world history rather than as an isolated narrative. It clarifies much of the early history of Israel/Judea, putting the Bible stories I learned as a child into the world-historical context that I have since adopted. The book also discusses Jewish religious belief and practice over the centuries in an accessible manner. Finally, it is an enjoyable book to read. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
From ancient Palestine through Europe and Asia, to America and modern Israel, Dimont shows how the saga of the Jews is interwoven with the story of virtually every nation on earth. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
