    Informative & Thought-Provoking
  

*by A***B on Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2022*

Regardless of how much one might agree or disagree with what Prager & Telushkin have to say on the subject, I have to give them credit for producing a reasonably readable & informative (for anyone who, like myself, didn’t know much on the subject) work.I would note that their premise that antisemitism is “the most accurate predictor of human evil” is problematic in that it is narrowly focused and effectively assumes that all human evil has something to do with Jews (what about evil perpetrated by peoples in the Americas and Asia such as the Aztecs, Mongols, Huns, etc. who had no contact with Jews?) Clearly, there is a more fundamental and universal explanation for evil which has nothing to do with the Jews per se.Likewise, although I think they are essentially correct in arguing against the various attempts to “de-Judaize” antisemitism, at the same time I am inclined to think that there is some underlying aspect of human nature which has tended to make Jews the target of hatred, regardless of their Judaism. In other words, due to evolution, we have become “hard-wired” toward altruism, or at least tolerance for other members of our group, and toward suspicion, fear, hatred, & violence toward those who are not members. Even chimpanzees are now known to conduct what can be described as “tribal warfare” against rival groups. And of course, any sub-culture or ethnic group which refuses to assimilate and do their part to support the welfare of the larger culture (such as be refusing to pray for help or make sacrifices to assuage the wrath of the gods which the majority believe can affect their welfare) is bound to generate the resentment and even the wrath of the larger group.And even without such obvious “triggers,” simply being different (or being perceived as different) can be enough to arouse the deep-seated, “hard-wired” tendency of human beings to see everyone in terms of “us versus them,” and with the inevitable result being in accordance with the old adage that “those who are not with us, are against us.”But having said all of that, I would again judge the book informative. I did not realize for instance that the Jews had suffered antisemitism under the Egyptians prior to the Exodus, and I did not know that an estimated 10% of the Empire had already converted to Judaism before Christianity came along, or that the Greco-Roman majority would have persecuted the Jews in the same way, and for some of the same reasons, that they would persecute early Christians.Finally, I am not entirely convinced that the author’s view that the Jews were chosen merely to spread “ethical monotheism” to other peoples, rather than being chosen in the sense that they are supposed to be God’s favorite, most beloved children. But considering the suffering that Jews have endured for millennia, I must admit that that idea makes sense. After all, if the Jews really are God’s favorite, we might expect that he would occasionally make his favoritism evident in some small way.

    Straightforward, easy to read book that answers the question
  

*by T***P on Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2022*

I don't often leave reviews but wanted to recommend this book. It tackles a question I'd long struggled with and provides the best answers I've seen so far. It's well documented, commonsensical and frank. Along the way it also provides a succinct history of antisemitism. I learned a lot, but never felt overwhelmed with details. The authors do a good job highlighting a few historical examples to support each point they make, and then moving on.If you've ever wondered "why the Jews?" this book offers some answers.

This book provides great insight to the causes of antisemitism.  As pointed out in the book, the underlying cause is the moral values of the Jewish people as set out in the Torah, the Jewish prophets and the Jewish religion.  The authors point out that those persons who hate Jews will also hate other groups or nations who reflect  high moral values.  This is the reason that the anti-God  socialists hate America and Israel.
