Author: Rabbi David SUTTON

Large format. Numerous photographs. Large format: 8 1/2" x 11" .
Known since Biblical times as Aram Soba, the city of Aleppo, Syria was a scholarly and spiritual center for thousands of years. Hated, persecuted, and finally driven out of its ancestral home, this community still lives on in thriving communities in Israel, America, Mexico, and worldwide, including the great Yeshivah Porat Yosef of Jerusalem.
Richly illustrated with hundreds of photos, including views of one of the oldest synagogues in the world, the vibrant heritage of Syrian Jewry comes alive in this magnificent history of Aleppo and its sages. This beautiful volume contains biographical information on several centuries of rabbis of Aleppo and Damascus - 600 of them - their ideals and teachings and their beloved pizmonim.
Written by a scion of Aleppo who both cherishes and reveres the luminous Judaism of this ancient community.

The Holocaust

Poids du colis: 0,25 kg


Author: Charles SARWAY

This is the story of the single most evil and unconscionable event ever committed by a nation state against a completely innocent people in any time or in any place. A story so horrible that it would be inconceivable even as a fiction had it not actually happened.
If you're going to read only one book about the Holocaust, consider this one. It is perhaps the best brief account available relating the history of this tragic event: informative, compelling and compact.
As time recedes from the most horrifying chapter in Jewish history, we simply cannot afford the luxury of forgetting.

Author: Sam FINKEL

Do you know how pivotal a role the fervently Orthodox played in the early farming of the Holy Land? This is their true story...
When a determined band of Russian Jewish farmers arrived in Palestine in 1882, they knew the world would be watching: In one of Baron Edmond de Rothschild s most daring experiments, their task was to build a Jewish agricultural colony to serve as a model for future refugees fleeing persecution. But this is no typical story of pioneering; it is one of monumental idealism in the face of duplicity and cynical betrayal.

Author: Moshe Prager

There were Jews in the ghettoes who refused to yield to Satan's reign of terror, who, from the very outset, rebelled against his regime of enslavement...
These chassidic rebels completely ignored the tyrant's regime, paid no attention to their decrees, and never yielded...
Who were these courageous young men who dared to defy Hitler's command? Who was the leader of this brave band? And where did the group's members get the inner fortitude to stand up for their convictions, even as darkness, doom, and death swirled around them?

Poids du colis: 1,5 kg


Author: Rabbi Berel WEIN

The story of the Jews in the modern era (1650-1996)

The inner story of the people of Israel within the perspective of general world history. Divine Guidance, the Torah, and Jewish commitment are central to our story over the last 3000 years. The book does not create myths nor does it come to revise our understanding of Israel’s history. Replete with facts, dates, and anecdotes, it records a story that has somehow escaped the notice of even many Jews. It informs and inspires. The pain and struggle of the present become more understandable when one knows Jewish history. This is a Jewish history book, not merely a book about the Jewish people and its history.
