The Jewish people are amazing. Everything they have gone through and they are still fighting and they still are standing strong. We are going to be using this at our ladies bible studies. I am going to order this book and the Time Chart of Biblical History and the book Then and Now Biblical Maps. They are going to be a gift for one of my best friends. This will probably be in about a month.
