    It is always a pleasure to listen to professor Abramson, even as he guides us through the most distressing periods.

    Kinda interesting that aspect of jews under the church, as scholars/bankers... maybe there will be some connection with the Knights Templar, that beyond its military side, would also handle church finances? As the Knights used the Al Aqsa mosque as its Jerusalém headquarters for a while, they could have had in mind the temple.

    As always, an informative and stimulating lecture.
    On the issue of genocide, the concept of one group wanting to completely wipe out another group has an ancient history.
    There however is a limitation of older technology which prevents fully accomplishing a genocide.
    However, by the 19th century as improved communication, transportation and weapons of greater mass destruction are created, then a complete genocide became possible as shown in the 20th century.

    Dear Dr. The Abramson rule is very true. And if you’re a religious person that was all part of the plan together with the pact of Umar and doctrine of the witness .
    But I think the that the trigger for the abramson rule here , was the
    המוציא את עמו ישראל ״ לחרות עולם״
    Everlasting freedom explains Maharal , a Jew even when he was humiliated by their surroundings,,inside he was always a free man knowing that he is the bearer of the oracles of truth. That’s what gave them the strength to persevere.
    Never in history since the exodus do we find a Jews being slaves . As the biggest mitzvah is pidyon shevuim .

      @@zvi303 when were the Jews enslaved in history?
      It’s true that in the 13th century the status of the Jews were Serfs of the king . Which in a way protected them , for whoever messed with them were messing with the property of the king . But that was only technical, even so the Mahar”m M’Rottenburg and the Rabbeinu Asher Ben Yechiel ( Ro”sh) and his son Rabbeinu Yakov Ba’al Haturim held its forbidden for this reason for a Jew to live in these lands .

      Barbara Lerner Spectre:
      "Europe has not yet learned how to be multicultural. And I think we are going to be part of the throes of that transformation, which must take place. Europe is not going to be the monolithic societies that they once were in the last century. Jews are going to be at the center of that. It's a huge transformation for Europe to make. They are now going into a multicultural mode, and Jews will be resented because of our leading role. But without that leading role, and without that transformation, Europe will not survive."
