The Orphans Among God's ChildrenThis book takes you back to the beginning of the Jewish religion and history from the time of the patriarch Abraham until the twenty-first century. Many people not only Gentiles but Jews as well, are unaware of the horrendous events that have burdened the Jewish people through the 2000 years of Christian history. This book will offer a comprehensive picture of the roots of anti-Semitism and will shed light on the reason why Pope John Paul II and Cardinal O'Connor asked the Jews for forgiveness at the start of the new mellennium. |
