4.0 out of 5 stars
Very balenced and informative book,
By Ehav Eliyahu Ever (Jerusalem, Israel) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Black Jews of Ethiopia (Hardcover)
I must first note that I only rated the book at 4 because I can't rate it at 4.5 where I really would want to rate it. The only reason I don't give it a 5 is because it doesn't have enough photos.All in all I found this book to be very informative of the practical, psychological, and cultural changes that have taken place in the Ethiopian Jewish community since the mass transportations from Ethiopia to Israel. This book does the subject matter a lot of justice in not taking sides in the issue of whether the Jews of Ethiopia are anciently Jewish or descendants of converts, but instead deals with as they are "JEWS." This book is one that I believe should be in every Jewish library, synagogue, and yeshivah. It puts the reality of the current social issues into an understandable format. The book also is impressive in the fact that it is a social study of the Ethiopian Jewish community and its transition from Ethiopia to Israel. |
