Germany Refuses to Acknowledge that Dead Sea Scrolls Belong to Israel

י״ד בכסלו ה׳תשע״ח (December 2, 2017) By Talmid Leave a Comment

The Dead Sea Scrolls belong to IsraelBecause the Qumran Caves where the Dead Sea Scrolls were found in 1947 are located in what is now known the West Bank, government officials in Germany refuse to provide written assurances that the Dead Sea Scrolls would be protected from confiscation by the Palestinian Authority as their own.  The Scrolls have been scheduled to go on exhibit at Frankfurt’s Bible Museum since 2015 but will remain in Israel unless the German government reverses course and agrees to provide the required protections for these national treasures. The Palestinian Authority has attempted to claim ownership of the Dead Sea Scrolls and has been reportedly planning to demand that UNESCO order Israel to surrender the Scrolls, despite that fact that they are written in Hebrew and support the literal text of the Tanakh, or Old Testament as we know it today.

Concerning the Jews

י״ח באייר ה׳תשע״ו (May 26, 2016) By Talmid Leave a Comment

Quote from Mark Twain: “Concerning the Jews”

Mark Twain : Concerning the Jews“If the statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one percent of the human race. It suggests a nebulous dim puff of star dust lost in the blaze of the Milky Way. Properly, the Jew ought hardly to be heard of; but he is heard of, has always been heard of. He is as prominent on the planet as any other people… His contributions to the world’s list of great names in literature, science, art, music, finance, medicine, and abstruse learning are also way out of proportion to the weakness of his numbers. He has made a marvelous fight in the world, in all the ages; and has done it with his hands tied behind him.

The Egyptian, the Babylonian, and the Persian rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor, then faded to dream-stuff and passed away; the Greek and the Roman followed, and made a vast noise, and they are gone; other peoples have sprung up and held their torch high for a time, but it burned out, and they sit in twilight now, or have vanished…

All things are mortal but the Jew; all other forces pass, but he remains. What is the secret of his immortality?”

How would YOU have answered Mark Twain? What is the secret to the Jewish people’s immortality?

In 1867, Mark Twain, author of “Huckleberry Finn” and “Tom Sawyer”, toured the Holy Land. This is how he described the land: “There is not a solitary village throughout its whole extent – not for thirty miles in either direction. There are two or three small clusters of Bedouin tents, but not a single permanent habitation. One may ride ten miles, hereabouts, and not see ten human beings.”

Did You Know…?

Aliyah is the word that describes the return of the Jewish People from the exile in the Diaspora back to the Land of Israel. The word Aliyah is derived from the verb "laalot" which means "to go up", or "to ascend" in a positive spiritual sense. A person who makes Aliyah is called an Oleh, meaning "one who goes up".
