Israel Connections: David Altman - Degrees of Jew Hatred

Israel is receiving a lot of attention these days. That's what happens when the God of Israel moves to a new phase of fulfilling His promises to restore and bring final redemption to Israel. It seems, though, that not everyone is pleased with how He is fulfilling His promises. Perhaps they would be happier with the restoration of Israel if the Jewish people weren't part of it.

That sounds ridiculous, but there are voices, even among Christians and Hebraic followers of Yeshua, who oppose the Jewish people, the Jewish state, and the Jewish nature of God's covenant nation of Israel. Some try to cloak their opposition as anti-Zionism rather than antisemitism, but the foundation of such opposition is still dislike and even hatred of the Jews. Why is that? 

This is what David Altman addresses in this conversation. As he explains, there are two converging streams of Jew hatred: Amalek, which seeks annihilation of the Jewish people and nation; and Jeroboam, which is jealous of the status and blessing God has bestowed on the Jewish people, and seeks to usurp it. So how do we know which stream is which? And is it possible to overcome this opposition and bring reconciliation?
