How did a small tribal people become a spiritual superpower? In Part I of this epic journey through Jewish history, historian Rabbi Ken Spiro joins Justin to trace the rise of the Jewish people—from Abraham to the unification under King David to the glory of the First and Second Temples, and finally to the tightening grip of Roman rule. Discover how ancient Jewish identity was forged and what forces were already threatening it from within.
Rabbi Ken Spiro is, Senior Lecturer and Researcher for Aish HaTorah in Jerusalem, a licensed tour guide in Israel, and the author of several books, including Crash Course in Jewish History: From Abraham to Modern Israel. You can learn more at https://kenspiro.com/
