There are certain values accepted by society today as cornerstones of civility and morality. Where did they come from? Rabbi Spiro proves that these concepts, including peace, social welfare and family infrastructure certainly did not stem from the ancient civilizations of Greece and Rome. Could it be the tiny Jewish nation educated the world? And how did we have the knowledge no one else possessed?
Are Jews different? Upon careful analysis of the objective contributions Jews have made to the world, it does seem that they are indeed driven to succeed far and beyond the norm.

Mesopotamia, the cradle of civilization, gave rise to the founding father of the Jewish people - Abraham. His mission: to explain the reality of One God to human consciousness. His workshop: the Land of Israel. A cosmic confrontation develops between his offspring. Those who disputed his mission were Ishmael and Esau, Those who supported it were Isaac and Jacob. A similar cosmic dispute occurs with Joseph and his brothers.
The tape of this class contains Jewish History #3 and #4.
