How does the history of the Bible impact us today? Noted Jewish historian Rabbi Berel Wein uncovers the historical context of Biblical events in order to understand the the origins of the Jewish people.

Explore Creation's challenge in the 21st century and the uneven beginnings of the Jewish people in all our family struggles. Follow the conquest of the land of Israel and the establishment of both military and religious rule through its initial rise to greatness. Observe the decline of the First Commonwealth, the fall of the Northern Kingdom and Judea, and ultimately the destruction of the Holy Temple before Nebuchadnezzar's armies. Rabbi Wein takes you into the Babylonian Exile where the Jewish people survived and even thrived, returning eventually to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem.
