The Jewish People

The Jewish People: An Illustrated history features contributions from brilliant scholars such as Anson F. Rainey, Shmuel Safrai, Haim Beinart, and Evyatar Friesel. This unique and innovative atlas is the first of its kind to detail the tumultuous history of the Jewish people, depicting Jewish history from biblical times to the present day. Shmuel Ahituv provides an excellently constructed story about how ancient people- departed from their family roots and dispersed throughout the world- survived two thousand years of exile and eventually returned as a key member of a modern state.
The Jewish People is quite simply an illustrated volume of Jewish history that offers detailed documentation of important themes in biblical, mishnaic, , medieval, and modern Jewish history- accompanied by the thoughts of some of the most brilliant scholars of their academic fields.
