Jews, God, and History Audiobook

" This history of the Jewish people is as full as the Torah itself. At all points, the text is rich, well researched and authentic. The theme of the diaspora and the analysis of the Jewish people as chosen and set apart strikes so true. Well done. "

" very informative historical time line "

" It's a little dry but very interesting. Helpful in understanding the history of Palestine, the middle east and the interrelatedness of the 3 major monotheistic religions. "

" This book was very readable and really did a good job of capsulizing the history of the Jews. The more contemporary sections were extremely well written and managed to be an excellent and objective view of modern history. At times his broad generalizations bothered me, but for the most part I felt it was really worthwhile particularly when taken in context of the time it was written. Clearly Dimont was very forward thinking for his time and more open than most of his peers. "

" Interesting read. He had some out there ideas though. "

" Here's a guy with zero academic credentials who wrote a pretty darn good history of the Jews from ancient times to modern. It has all the "greatest hits," more broad than deep. A good one to bring to shul on a Saturday. "

" A history of jew is basically a history of "God" and civilasation. 'God' in here meaning not as 'a real' but as 'concept'. In the 21th century the 'God' is what the book has told you about. "

" Awesome history of the Jewish culture. Learned a lot and have new respect for accomplishments of Jewish culture. Highly recommend to anyone history in religion or history "

" Valiant and provocative, but somehow careless. "

" A little out-of-date (I think the initial pub date was in the 70's...), but completely engaging history of the Jewish tribe from Abraham onwards. 4000 years and counting! Pretty incredible. "

" Max charms while he teaches. Great book on Judaism. "

" Extremely conceited and biased but it's quite insightful especially with regard to the Jewish mentality. "

" I picked this book up while in Hawaii on the recommendation of Zachary. It is approx. 500 pages in very tiny print - a disability as I get older. So far (and you can see I haven't got far,) it is very readable. "
