I had read, online, the entire crash course. I have learnt a lot about the beloved Jews, and their God-given land, Israel. I therefore thank you for availing this knowledge. I am a born again Christian in Uganda. However, I will always be a blessing to the Jews when opportunity arises, because, for the truth YOU are a chosen people. Shalom

I am very interested in learning Jewish History

Your work is filling large gaps in my awareness of the history of my people. It is so much appreciated!

Thank you

I just finished reading the last Crush Histoty Course no. 68. I loved every one of the courses and I highly recommend it to everyone. Thank Aish and Rabbi Spiro. By the way --- I was sorry that the courses ended.

Keep up the GOOD WORK. May G-d bless you.

Awesome information. Makes everything that has happened throughout Israel's history very clear. Thankyou Looking for the day when The whole House of Israel is reunited again .

Thank you for this important teaching of the Bible and true history of Israel.Shalom

As a Christian I have always felt that we owe so much to your nation, for it was through you that God spoke and still speaks today. We love His own people and the nation. I hope that my stance as a Christian who weeps at the history of the many so-called christians who treated the Jewish nation so badly and so seeks your forgiveness, that you will allow me to be on your mailing list.

in your opinion, why have the jews been so persecuted over the years, and why are we still today? there are only 16[?] million of us and 1 billion of both christians and moslems. i have been jewish since birth and i never hated anyone, christian, moslem, black or white.

Its a pride thing. you got them better last time but don't ask me to define who "you" and "them" are because just like politics, the lines are blurred and messy.

Very good timeline it shows a lot.

very helpful and neat :D

Thank you for your wisdom!

WOW! A miracle indeed. Jorge

Is it possible to fine hone the time line by adding in the equivalent hebrew year? I think it wd be greaty appreciated by many. thanks.

A most useful and inspiring history, wonderfully clear and easy to follow.

This is a good web site on the Judaism information. i have look at many web site and not enough information on this subject and i will let others know about this web site. the reason for the information i am in a religion class at the University of Phoenix and writing about a time line for Abraham to the present. thanks, mags

I spent two hours trying to find information about what happened in Egypt before Moses and i finally found this website. And in half an hour i had everything i needed, and more. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the info. it was comprehensive and easy to understand even for me. plus it was really interesting so i read more than i actually had to...so thank you :D

thanks for the great timeline kk ^_^

This timeline just helped me so much with my Judaism test. Thank you so much!!

I am a Muslim and reading jewish history since last year as an ameteur but let me admit this is the most informative history written with open minds. especially i have seen that u have mentioned jews condition in Muslim world with honesty. None such article i found written by a jew. Bravo for such detailed information.

You mentioned that we have come to the end of this series. Please continue to write about Jewish History. I have not come close to learning enough. I hope we can return to many of the chapters. I depend upon the information you have so generously provided. I thank you Rabbi Spiro, for your excellent work. It is such a pleasure to read and think about the Jewish past which has a great effect on our future.I love reading the comments from the many different people and I thank them also.

Thanks to the Rabbi for all the great lessons, and God bless!

Really enjoyed thecourse and found it easy to read and very instructive.

I agree with Edward Prato!

Great diagram showing the timeline of Jewish history an aid to all educators. Thank you aish.com and R. Spiro yet again for this series!

I work at a Jewish day school and have begun using this timeline as part of a lesson. Please tell me the sourses used to compile the information given.
Thank you!

For a Gentile with little Jewish history knowledge, this site is a wonderful place to see the entire Jewish history in a neatly done timeline. Thank you for the work.

What a pity that the histories have come to an end with number 68! It has been such a pleasure receiving them and
reading them. I have downloaded them and now intend to begin again and read
them more carefully.

I congratulate you on writing so well and informatively. The series
of 68 give an excellent insight into Jewish history and I am sure that
other readers are also inspired to go further.

Many, many thanks from a very contended and grateful recipient in
Melbourne, Australia.

I have never read or seen any piece so brilliantly summarized in such distinct
detail.This was before my time but left me in tears!

After my trip to Greece, I wanted to understand what was happening in Jewish hstory at the time of the ancient Greeks. You've broadened my experience of the ancient world.

the title of this article looks just like the topis of my studies and work to get the masters degree, thanks for the summary:)If there is anyone who has materials on the subject, I'd be grateful. I am jewish but I live in Poland. It is hard to get anything about our history.

This timeline is an excellent tool to understand the history of the Jewish people! I always had many misconceptions about the events surrounding the establishment of the State of Israel, and was very pleased to have the historical facts presented to me in such a clear and concise manner. I'm very impressed, and plan to pass on this website to others who may be interested. Thanks!

Thank you so much for having this wonderful reasearch. It helped me so much on my Religion project. I'm glad I learned more about my religion!

I have a profound insight into Jewish history and the great Jewish religion that is awesome to me. Thank you

Thank you for the information!!!!

Many thanks for a wonderful journey through Jewish history. I have enjoyed it thoroughly.May I use your articles for research?

a great peice of work.

made me read it a second time!

What a truly amazing piece of writing. I have read heaps of history before but the way its displayed is so refreshing and informative its forced me to think so much about my heritage and my place in the world.

Is there anyway we can email you Rabbi directly?

I enjoy receiving mail from you, beause even at my ripe old age of 75, I am never to old to learn, and your page, I do learn something new.
Keep them coming and above all keep well

Thank you Thank you Thank you

Thankyou for making available this informative description of Jewish history. I am a non-Jew and, I must say, an "areligeous" person. However I think that it is essential that, before once can make an informed opinion about the current Arab-Israeli conflict, one must be exposed to all sides of the dispute. I have swallowed as much Palestinian and Arab rhetoric as I can and I have concluded that most of their opinions are mindless and uninspiring. Unfortunately, much of the world is coming down on the side of Palestinian terrorists citing that Israel must stop occupying Palestinian lands. An informed opinion (from whom was the land taken to begin with?) makes the argument stronger for the inverse relationship. Israel is, has been, and should be the homeland of the Jews. I believe that and I support Israel's right to defend their sovereignty. It is clear that Arabs are in general mislead and completely misinformed by their media. It is also my firm belief that opinions should only be considered when they are based on accurate information. Towards this end, the distribution of information, I appreciate your efforts. Please continue , I will visit again.
Sincerely,
Edward A. Prato

In an effort to better understand the on-going struggle in the Holy Land, I have been searching for an understandable history of Israel. What a gold-mine of information you have provided in this series. Once people learn about the struggle of the Jewish people for their homeland, they must realize that we must step up our efforts to support Israel.

FOR YEARS, I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO FIND MY WAY HOME. YOU HAVE OFFERED ME A WEALTH OF INFORMATION AND RECOGNITION THAT WE WILL ENDURE. I HAVE OFTEN WONDERED HOW I MADE IT THIS FAR. NOW I UNDERSTAND COMPLETELY THE RESPONSIBILITY THAT I HAVE. IT IS A WONDERFUL ENLIGHTENMENT.

Everyone,in the US and the world, would have a much better understanding and I would hope positive feeling for the Jewish people, and themselves if they read this history.

Thank you so much for the absolutely superb Jewish History series. I learned much about our Jewish Heritage and have enjoyed reading each series. It was so well written that I am going to read it and study it more in depth. Again, thank you; and please continue to write more about Jewish History.

Thank you for writing this series. I have downloaded the series and have had them bound in a book format.

It is wonderful to be reminded of where we came from and what we have been through, and to be reminded that we will continue, in spite of constant challenges to our existence.

I have learned so very much from your articles. Thank you for what you are doing to educate people!
Shalom

An Enlightening course, which every Jew and non-Jew alike should read, digest, and take to heart. I, a Roman Catholic and a teacher, fully enjoyed learning your history,and even more about my own. It has cleared away some of the shadows, cob-webs and fallices of my churches teachings, (mostly by the omissions) .Certainly,I have gained more understanding.

I am going to take this course again. It is far from boring, I appreciate the humor too.........Thank you.

I have saved each chapter and read them as time permits. I have found the series to be very informative and will serve as a valuable reference.

I have found this Jewish crash course in helping me to understand my Jewish Roots It was awesome. I did not start from the beginning of this courses. I started at the middle of the courses. I would like to receive from the first to number 29., If at all possible. I have made copies for myself to have on hand and have forward them to other friends. I thank you for being able to present them to whomsoever would want to know the history of our fathers.

Thank you for your series. While I consider myself fairly knowledgable in Jewish history - the way you presented and explaned it taught me a lot. I look forward to reading more from you.

Thank you very much for the Jewish History series. Although, some of this history I knew there was much I didn't know or remember. I enjoyed each and every chapter.

Thanks again.

it was very interesting, Thanks!

Thank you so much for the Jewish History series I have not missed one series. The series has helped me greatly to understand much about the history and difficult times in a very skillful presentation.
Much Thanks
