JerUSAlem: A Study of the Link Between Israel, the Abrahamic Covenant, and the United States of America invites the listener to see the nation of Israel from a Biblical worldview by tracing the historical events guided by Biblical precedent. Using Israel's patriarchs, her captivity and diaspora, the world's disdain for her, all the man-made treaties meant to control her, and her eventual independence, Matthew T. Stone shows that God's purpose to make Israel a great nation will not be thwarted.

Four years after their departure for the east, the armies of Rome are bloodied and exhausted. Their victories against the Parthian Empire came at great cost. As Emperor Trajan stood upon the shores of the Persian Gulf, insurrections erupted amongst the Jewish populations of Cyrenaica, Egypt, Cyprus, and Syria. These were inflamed by uprisings across the newly conquered regions of Mesopotamia. Though Trajan defeated Parthia’s armies in the field, the campaign ended with a humiliating failed siege at Hatra. Disease wreaked havoc upon the imperial army, including the emperor himself.

In the decades since 1945, Western Europe has undergone a seismic social and political transformation. The evils of racism, authoritarianism, and exclusionary nationalism, which once prevailed, have been defeated and marginalized. Through an arduous process of democratization and liberalization, today’s Western Europe is almost unrecognizable from the one our grandparents were raised in. Yet despite this commendable progress, alarm bells are ringing. Civilization is facing a new crisis, and once again, the Jews find themselves in great danger.

¿Por qué existen los judíos? O mejor dicho, ¿por qué quedan judíos en el mundo? No se ha podido identificar ningún otro grupo de personas que haya sobrevivido tanto tiempo en exilio de su tierra. Tampoco hay otro pueblo presente en el mundo cuyos orígenes estén más envueltos en misteriosos y mitos. Ni hay otro identidad que haya vido mas difícil para un pueblo. Ni hay otro pueblo más dispuesto a soportar las dificultades de su identidad.

Companionship is the obvious, natural motivation for marriage. However, if we view marriage as an eternal bond between husband and wife our attitude will be very different than if we view marriage as a temporary relationship. A brick house requires completely different design, construction and maintenance than a tent. If we are wise, we will consider the past, the future and the present so that our marriages will be lasting and successful. The immediate benefits of companionship are not the only factors that we need to consider.

Men trods det enorme søgelys på krigen, mangler historikerne alligevel svar på masser af spørgsmål. Som årene går, blomstrer myter op side om side med fakta. I denne bog forsøger vi at finde svarene.

What are we talking about when we talk about antisemitism? For most of its history it was understood to be a menace from the political Right, the province of ethno-nativists who built on Christendom’s long-standing suspicion of its tiny Jewish population and infused it with racist pseudoscience. When the twentieth century began, the vast majority of the world’s Jews lived in Europe. For them, there was no confusion about where the threat of antisemitic politics lay, a threat that culminated in the nightmare of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust.
