About the author
Joel Carmichael
48 books5 followersJoel Carmichael (December 31, 1915 – January 27, 2006) was an American historian, magazine editor, and translator.
Born Joel Lipsky on December 31, 1915 in New York City, Carmichael was the youngest son of Charlotte Schacht and Louis Lipsky, a founder of the American Zionist movement. His oldest brother, David (1907–1996) became a publicist; his middle brother, Eleazar (1911–1993), was a lawyer, novelist, journalist, playwright and active Zionist.
Following graduation from high school, he was sent for a year to Palestine. There he began learning Arabic before returning to New York and attending Columbia University. In England, a chance meeting with an Oxford don turned him to read Greek and Russian at Oxford.
His first book, a translation of a memoir of the Russian Revolution, helped Carmichael land a contract with Oxford University Press. From there, he wrote numerous titles on early Christianity, Arab history and Russian history, and translated Anna Karenina for a new paperback edition. One book, The Death of Jesus, was translated into eight languages. Carmichael was also editor of Midstream, a Zionist magazine, for 24 years, serving from 1975–1988 and 1990-2001.

A great book that traces the roots and the growth of anti-semitism against Jews from pre-New Testament days.
The Romans seemed to have tolerated them the most in ancient times, until the revolts against Roman rule finally caused the empire to subjugate them. The Jews of the Diaspora were also mentioned to threaten Roman routes to the east, hampering their troops' movements when the Romans warred against the Persian empire.
Christianity, too, gets blame for using the Jews' religion and misunderstanding to engage in anti-semitism. Martin Luther, being rebuffed after reaching out to Jews, and expecting them to support him, set out a path of anti-semitism and decrying Jews - the rumors and results of which survived to modern times.
"The Protocols of the Elders of Zion" are another method that anti-semites have used to slur Jews, and the author mentions how various governments (Germany and the Soviet Union) used them as pretexts for pogroms and passing rules specifically targeting Jews.
If you're a fan of history or religions, then this is definitely a book to read.

A passionate review of the historical evidence of the Christian roots of anti-Semitism. Clearly traced from passages in the New Testament, especially the Gospel of John, comes the idea of Jewish deicide and the idea of the Jews as the spawn of the Devil. A depressing but necessary book for anyone who wants to understand the roots of the Holocaust.
