Scattered Among the Nations Documents Affecting Jewish History 49 to 1975
Editorial Reviews
The Detroit Jewish News
More than 100 historical documents that have had a profound impact on Jewish life are in "Scattered Among the Nations." The book includes laws, commentaries, letters, reports and observations by Christian religious and secular leaders that have influenced Jewish history. For example, it includes Ferdinand's and Isabella's Edict for the Expulsion of the Jews ("And as it is found and appears, that the said Jews, wherever they live and congregate, daily increase in continuing their wicked and injurious purposes..."); Martin Luther's "On the Jews and Their Lies," ("The sun has never shone on a more bloodthirsty and vengeful people."); and an excerpt from Joseph Goebbels' diary ("It's a life-and-death struggle between the Aryan race and Jewish bacillus.").
