A Message From Rabbi Jeff Salkin:
Why Do They Hate Us?
That’s one of the most basic questions of Jewish life (I write with
sadness), and I thought about it just yesterday on Purim.
It’s also an eternal question. The Talmud even makes the seemingly
– outrageous claim that even in the Messianic era, when all other
festivals have been nullified, only Purim will remain.
Many are the heirs of Haman, and some of them live right in
Iran/Persia. That’s why our upcoming book discussion is so important.
ANTI-SEMITISM IS ALIVE AND WELL AND LIVING....A WEIGHTY BOOK
AND AN EVEN WEIGHTIER TOPIC
Robert Wistrich's new book A Lethal Obsession: Anti-Semitism from
Antiquity to the Global Jihad
is the most comprehensive account of contemporary anti-semitism
and anti-Zionism to come out in years.
It is a masterpiece of investigative nonfiction, the definitive work
on this unsettling subject.
In this unprecedented work two decades in the making, leading
historian Robert S. Wistrich examines the long and ugly history
of anti-Semitism, from the first recorded pogrom in 38 BCE to its
shocking and widespread resurgence in the present day. As no other
book has done before it, A Lethal Obsession reveals the causes behind
this shameful and persistent form of hatred and offers a sobering
look at how it may shake and reshape the world in years to come.
In a unique partnership with ADL, Rabbi Jeff Salkin of Kol Echad:
Making Judaism Matter will be discussing the book and its implications
on Monday, March 8, 8 pm. Borders Buckhead, 3637 Peachtree Road.
