Judaism. The Promised Land
Description
From Abraham's trek to Canaan, through to Moses, the Jewish Revolts, and the Diaspora, this program gives the early history of Judaism as recounted in the Tanakh and shows how the religion's rich past survives in ceremonies still practiced by the Jewish people today. Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, and Purim are described in detail, along with other holidays and rituals that take place inside the synagogue. The video also covers the founding of the State of Israel in 1948. Filmed on location in Israel and the U.S.
