This book offers an account of the 4,000-year history of the Jews, from the ancient Patriarchs and Kings through to modern times. It also explores the Jewish faith, its traditional beliefs and practices, its festivals and celebrations, and the way of life of Jewish people today. Divided into two volumes, The History of the Jews, details how the Jewish people flourished over time, creating the Hebrew Bible, before enduring centuries of persecution, culminating in the mass migration from Europe to America, and the eventual return to the Promised Land of Israel. The second volume, Judaism, explores the variety of religious forms of Jewish existence. The central tenets of Jewish belief are outlined and all aspects of religious life are described including the Sabbath, festivals, and home ceremonies.
Lawrence Joffe lectures on Jewish and Middle Eastern affairs and writes for The Jewish Chronicle, the Jewish Quarterly and The Middle East magazine, among others. Professor Dan Cohn-Sherbok is a Reform rabbi, a Jewish theologian and a world authority on Judaism. He holds a doctorate in theology from Cambridge University and is the author of many books on the Jewish religion.
