The Diabolical Persecution Of The Jewish People Throughout History
The Jewish people have often been the target of persecution. There are several reasons for this, though many of them do not make sense when looked at rationally. Later in this video, we will tell you how irrational fears and the misreading of history contributed to the hatred of the Jews, known as "anti- Semitism." Before we do that, we'll tell you about two times the Jews were persecuted for more understandable reasons.
Their slavery in Egypt and the "Babylonian Captivity," took place many years before the existence of the Roman Empire. This video may contain disturbing or offensive content. Viewer discretion is advised. The creators of this video do not condone the actions of the subjects featured. EGYPT AND BABYLON In the book of Exodus in the Old Testament, the Jews were slaves of Egypt. Egypt had conquered the Israelites. At the time and throughout history, people at war took one another as slaves. Jews were not hated simply for being Jews – they had lost a war. Though historians are unsure of the dates of their slavery's beginning and end, many people believe it happened during the time of Pharaohs Seti I and his son Ramses II of Egypt.
This would mean that the events surrounding the Israelite's slavery and their deliverance as described in the Bible happened around 1300-1250 BC. Five or six hundred years later, the Jewish kingdom of Judah found itself a tributary state of Babylon, which lay in most of present-day Iraq. Unfortunately for the Jews, their king had decided that he would no longer pay tribute to the Babylonian king, Nebuchadnezzar II. Bad idea. Nebuchadnezzar and the Jews fought two wars, which ended in "The Babylonian Captivity ."In other words, many, if not most, Jews found themselves exiled and taken as slaves to Babylon. This ended 70 years later when the Persians defeated Babylon, and their ruler, Cyrus the Great, allowed the Jews to go home. Like their ancestors in Egypt, the Jews of the Babylonian Exile ,
“had been enslaved”. ROME and the origins of anti-Semitism In the New Testament and other documents, such as the writings of the Roman-Jewish historian Josephus, we're told that the influential Jewish religious leaders, the Pharisees, were concerned that Jesus might cause disorder or even cause their overthrow. Because the death penalty was forbidden, they took their case to the Roman governor, Pontius Pilate. As a result, Jesus was executed by the Romans, for he announced himself the "King of the Jews." Pilate believed Jesus was putting himself ahead of Caesar, a big no-no to the Romans, and ordered his death. But there was a "catch" that has haunted the Jewish people in Europe ever since. Because these events took place during the Jewish holiday of Passover, Pilate offered the Jewish crowd gathered by the Pharisees a choice. Should he kill Jesus or the anti-Roman killer named Barabbas?
