Dr Abramson, Thank you so much for a delightful three-evening lecture series covering a remarkable 3800+ years of Israeli and Jewish history. My wife and I very much enjoyed finally meeting you in person. You are as delightful in person as online. As an Anglican pastor for 43 years, and a fellow lover of history, I have learned much from your insightful, humorous teachings.
It was great to meet you in person, Mr. Hird! Thanks so much for the kind gift, and of course for the kind words.
Do you do your own green-screen editing of your talks? It is interesting to see the editing of the talk at Beth Israel so that the illustrations that you used in the talk have become your backdrop. Either way, it is very effective.
@@HenryAbramsonPhDThank you professor Abramson for this imformative lecture thanks for sharing the interesting story of youre grandfather ,🇨🇦🍁🔥that fire in canada ive never heard of it was great youre grandfather was able to pull through that diasaster,thanks also for covering how that lands name was changed after 135,i often wonder if the destruction of 70 ce our ad never accourd how that region may look today ,the maccabean revolt was covered very well it seems the books of maccabees where well known in christian circles as you depicted middle ages art work 🐘of elea zers death under antiochus'war elephant💥those books seem to have been even removed from the kjv bible in the 1800s by some prodestant churches which to me i dont understand during jesus'time he would have been famaliar with the story ,as he also revered hanukkah as well ,wishing you the best as Purim comes up🎉🎉👍
I like how you subtly but unmistakeably make it clear when it's the historical record and when it's "the plot".
I always LOVE your old-dad’s jokes. No problem, those who don’t care for your humor will like you for the learning. Those who appreciate your humor simple get double the blessing from watching your videos 😊
Thanks so much!
Class Never Goes Out of Style Professor...
Thank you!
This Christian likes to study Jewish history, thank you!
You are most welcome!
Me too!
Me too!!
Great content. Abraham, Isaac,Jacob what a beautiful history of God with you. So precious.
I have been overwhelmingly grateful to find a circumspect, objective, straightforward Jewish scholar to aid me in studying the history of the Jewish people, the Muslims in Palestine, and the associated topics.
Sir, your allegiance to evenhandedness and unemotional discussion is very refreshing. I thank you.
Thank you for the kind words!
But his is an almost lobotomized telling of a "history" that has very deep blood layers that have relevance to what's happening today.
Thank you for giving your precious time to other's learning.
My pleasure!
Shalom Professor, you have once again encompassed so much in so little time and offered us a bird’s eye view into the history of our people. I might also add, given the conflict today, this was also timely.
Thank you for the time and extensive research you’ve put into these instructional videos for us, I can’t wait to watch the next two! Shalom!
Thank you so much for the kind words!
Your teachings are much appreciated.
I appreciate that
Thanks Dr Abramson, your lectures always make my day. I love your "professor jokes,"and I always feel blessed because knowledge can only increase our faith in Hashem. As I have mentioned before, my mother's grandparents were Ashkenazi Jews. I was raised an American Lutheran but now am an Eastern Orthodox Christian because we embrace both books of the bible and try to live our faith daily, as I see Jews do as well.
Thank you for supporting the research! Glad you enjoy the videos.
thank you, Sir, for this very interesting lecture. I think esp today it's important to develop some kind of knowledge about Jewish history to be able to put all those different opinions into perspective. looking forward to the next part!
Me too!
Being that I love history, I find these lectures very informative and provide perspective to the present day. Your mom brought you to my flower shop twenty years ago when you were visiting. Imagine my surprise upon listening to your anecdote about your family and its connection to our hometown, Iroquois Falls. I look forward to watching (and occasionally chuckle), all of your lectures. Be well and thank you, Julia (Swartz) Sauve
Historically precise video, with lots of archeological background information.
Glad you found it useful!
Hilarios 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
You may NOT cut out the "corny jokes" 🤦🏻♀️... It's verboten!
I learn so many interesting details and points of view from your delightful lectures on a subject most dear. 💛
Shabbat Shalom from a dying Assyrian who once long before the Israelites were Jews and believed in Hashem/Yahweh and were therefore as numerous as the stars of the sky and the grains of sand on the shores and had the greatest empire and foremost culture on earth; But who unfortunately later turned their backs on Hashem (followed Babylonian idolatry and later the Christian heresy) and therefore were lost in according to the covenant and promises: "If you remain faithful to me, I will make you the greatest, but if you forsake me, I will let you perish."
Enlightening lecture!Thank you, dear Professor...waiting for More!
Shalom rabbi Henry Abramson best wishes from a Pakistani American chabadnik lubavitcher rebbe followers 🇮🇱🇮🇱🇵🇰🇵🇰🇺🇸🇺🇸
God bless you and your work ! Shalom!
Same to you!
From all the lectures that I’ve listened to in the past three years must be at least 100s of hours. This particular one stands out for some reason very in-depth and very educational. I had to listen to several times.
Glad you found it worthwhile
Having trouble finding the third of this trifecta. Also, can you please tell me the people that lived in Canaan prior to Abraham’s arrival?
Learning more about my Jewish Heritage through the history is great for me thank you.
fascinating, literate and entertaining. thank you Dr. Abramson.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Excellent lecture. Thank you for this content
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you..i love the history of Jewish..becauae i am christian so jewish is the root of the my faith so i love to hear your presentation.thanks
Love your historical lectures!!! ❤
Thank you!
Thank you for posting this videos, because I first found your channel by the video discussing Viktor Frankl. I’m appreciative of the long form content, that’s packed with knowledge instead of wasting time not learning. Please don’t stop posting, this channel is amazing and we need more educational topics & representation out there.
Thank you!
I asked myself many times why I love Israel so much. When Israel goes thro violence n death, I feel it in m bones. Though I have not been to Israel till today, mentally n emotionally I m so connected with this great country n people...
You should visit sometime
Just found you on YT, this is my 3rd upload, enjoying all the content. From Sydney Australia.
Excellent lecture
Thank you for (showing) the video.
Thank you so much !
You're welcome!
Learning a lot here, thank you!
Glad to hear it!
Thanks oodles, Dr. Abramson! I've heard much of this in pieces, but it was nice to see it put all together in a single 30-minute narrative. I really appreciated your anecdote about your grandparents, and relating that to our understanding (such as it is) of history. It's a good reminder that these were all real people with real lives, and not just extras on some grander historical drama, which is about all we get from the past. Also, I loved the Chinese take-out box "artifact." What a hoot!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Looking forward to lectures two and three.
Just have to get some time to record them
Always very well presented and interesting. Even to a Catholic guy like me (although recently found out I have Jewish roots on the paternal side)
Excellent overview. Thank you !!
great lecture, thanks for sharing!
Epic history lesson! Spot on, Sir. 👍
One of a kind bridge to understanding Israel's past and present that gave flavor to life.
Thanks ❤️
Excellent lecture Dr Abramson
Thank you Dr. I’m a Christian and just want to educate myself more about the history of God’s chosen nation.
Thank you,
"Ben Isra~el."
Every word in it is history.
You are welcome
Most interesting and instructive video. Thank you.
I'm not Jewish but still enjoyed the history lesson. Will we ever know the origin of the Jewish people that is before they moved int the region now called Israel
Are you serious?? lol just look it up, it's not a mystery
Abraham was an immigrant from Ur who settled in Hebron. He was blessed by a local king for his service in war. Irish annals identify the king of Golgotha in the time of Amenemhat III as Ogamhan.
Ogamhan fought a civil war among the Phoenicians between the sons of Nenual and the sons of Niul.
Very nice work!
Thank you as usual i really enjoyed it.
Glad you enjoyed it
Lovely picture of your grandparents! I always like to see vintage photos of the older generations
Anyways, do you think it’s possible that Ur Kasdim is actually located in northern Mesopotamia, as several Jewish sources such as Josephus and Ramban, suggest it is located?
Thank you, sir, for this information.
I listened once to a Yale course and it was argued that the group who separated from the rest of Caanan tribes and became Jewish was, at least for a while, not very different from them, it was a gradual process of cultural and social differentiation. This makes the story of exodus and conflict after leaving Egypt quite different, if true. Thanks for your dedication and scholarship.
There are different theories about the arrival/settlement/development of the Israelites. Discussed in my forthcoming book.
Thank you for your videos may God (YHWH) continue to support you in identifying the Children of Israel whether they be in Israel, North America, Europe, Australia, South America, West Africa, Southern Africa or East Africa. Whether they be White, Black or Brown people, please continue to identify the Children of Israel. I enjoyed your video on the Lemba people. Thank you once again so much, looking forward to your next video.
I enjoy learning the history of my past
So as not to repeat the same mistakes.
Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it
Keep on Proffesor Abamson. Everybody must know how kind, intellectual and spiritual the Jews are in the this world of hatred even to the our existence.
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
WOW! You didn’t mention Yamnaya Culture.
Love the choice of words on what Shimshon did at the Philistine temple, at about 19:00, since I just watched your video on Freud: edifice wrecks. Thanks for posting, and have you watched anything by David Rohl? His description of the conditions at Avaris (slavery in Mitzraim) is chilling and telling. If true, it seems to shed some light on why Hashem acted.
You should have included the archeological discoveries in Saudi Arabia, which are even on google maps now as landmarks!
The golden calf, the bitter springs, the altar, and even Mount Sinai.
Looking at your map around 1.40, it seems like the 'middle east' southwest of the caspian and northeast of suez and southeast of Constantinople should just be called "The Middle" and not "The middle east." It's similar to how in the US we call the Midwest an area that is actually the Mideast. It feels like someone is trying to shift the goalposts on us lol
Love your recent content, by the way, Sir.
thank-you
Israel is not wasted.....the God of Israel never slumbers nor sleeps.
Hello Dr Abramson, I have a question: what kind of programme you use for these presentation? And where can I get it?
You are a great teacher, Professor. A question I have about the synagogue that had been buried in the sand and had beautiful images including the anointing of King David. Would not those images be forbidden in the ten commandments?
Total misunderstanding of Hebrew text and how the usage of names is done obviously Abraham the Hebrew, because he’s a descendent of a Aber The fact that he was also born in exile on the other side of the river is a extra plus bonus extrapolation
I'm a Gentile Jewish Student haha!!! Great lectures!!! Thanka
Trace the beginning of the Jew-ish to the speech of Jonah. 😊
Jonah was a hit 🎯!!!!! Woohoo they loved his word's!
And to think he almost didn't go because of fear?
God is Almighty and this brought on the justice against those who broken the Covenant of Moses.
Where is the map from shown around 5:30?
Love your teaching Dr. Abramson.
Israeli people are God chosen people. The covenant made with Abraham is eternal.
Bible believers stand for Israel unconditionally. 🙏❤️🇮🇱✡️🕎❤️✌️🇨🇱
Pls don’t cut out the “corny” jokes! I really enjoy your humour.
Thanks!
Does the depiction of Purim in the Dura-Europos artwork negate the suggestion of Hoschander that the Book of Esther was written by the Chashmonaim?
Thank You Dr.Abramson for your illustrative video from Tanzania. I am scientist and I love history and theology, I am curious about the historical Abraham and moses, in theological narration they have done significant things worth notable in history of their respectful regions and still we dont have any archelogical evidence for their existance,
Many of my science buddies who are not following any of religion regard all the theological figures from Abraham to Moses as myth produced to by Isrealiets to unjustly comit genocide to the existing civilization already prevailing in palestine.
Plz Recommend video to share so as to gate a base for discussion.
From a non biblical approach it’s been pretty much confirms that Israelites are a branch of Canaanites. So an Ugarit people who’s ancestors have been in the region (ironically) even longer.
Fertile crescent, Levant 3:00 🌍 Israel 8:55
Question Dr Abrahamson: Why does god named Jakob Israel? I never understood literary. Was it in "hebrew" or "aramaic" or which language? What dies it mean or is it just a name for itself? Thank You.
Jacob is the Father of Israel, his 12 sons are the 12 Tribes.
What the Liberal atheists do not understand, why I study religions, because our ancestors wrote history and realized philosophy for us. Namaste fellow Brahman 🙏
Always educational and entertaining. Your little corny dad jokes are a good break up to the material.
Dr. Henry, what is the evidence for the three areas that you circled? I was told that it is a mystery where the people went. I presume that they are the diaspora Jews of Near East and India. Am I wrong?
Doctor Abramson, thank you for the excellent history lecture. Also, it’s good to see you cracking jokes again. Unless that ancient Chinese food container was actually authentic?
Please Rabbi, when did we first encounter Lo Mein?
Oh, 36 minutes? What a number, right?
I might convert, yah know...if you keep this up. Anymore videos, with 36 minutes and I just might make my announcement. For the sake of Abulafia I feel compelled to do so lately.
The very best is yet to come for Israel....
Could you please describe origin of Hebrew language and point to reports(pear reviewed not disputed) of oldest archaeological artifacts that demonstrate use of it
Gezer calendar c. 10th c BCEA
If Jewish Palestinian Aramaic was In use from 200 bce to 200 ce, and likely Judea’s primary language at the time of Jesus and the early Christians, then when And how Hebrew was used?
@@yasim9435I was taught that Hebrew was the lingua franca in Israel; and, Aramaic was spoken mainly in the Decapolis region. A kind of course merchandising language used particularly by fisherman. It was a semitic dialect; so not difficult to pick up if one applies oneself. Also, necessary (!) in order to insure one was dealt with equitably in business.
Hebrew, being the language of the Bible; and therefore, the language of education (Hebrew children were educated, boys longer, but girls as well, till the age of marriage). It was also, illegal to teach a Hebrew child any language, except "Hebrew". So, it seems they were endeavoring to protect the culture. After adulthood, or if born outside the land, would have been different.
Especially interesting: daughters of Rabbis were considered desirable wives for the insights they would have gleaned from their fathers!
The Chinese food jokes get me every time.
Shalom wtodah! There are 2 points I would like you to comment (sorry for poor English).
-I am somehow confused about calling "Jewish" the people of the kingdom of Samaria between king Shlomo and the destruction by the Assyrians. In the sources I read, they are mostly called "Samaritans".
-You mentionned Phoenicians as "sea people" but I remember that they called themselves Canaanites and spoke a semitic language very close to Hebrew.
With all due respect Dr. I would disagree with you Abraham would have been about 3100 BC. 5784 Jewish year - 2024= 3760 BC. They were called Chaldeans weren't They. Abraham of Ur of Chaldea? Herodotus wrote about the Chaldeans priests in Babylon. Then they were called Ioudai (ee-ouh-they/ee-ou = Jew)
I would like you to know Mr. Abramson that Παλαιστίνη is derived from the Greek word for wrestler, Παλαιστίς. That of course links to the name Israel as you know.
Thank you very much for your videos.
Great teachings, Professor. What about the Ethooian Jews and the Jews in Africa of the 10 lost tribes?
What's the difference between the Torah and the Talmud?
Mysterious food containers found on site... HILARIOUS.
This is why I am a subscriber and viewer. Well, one of the reasons.
Glad to have you with us!
Might have made this comment already, Go up to founding of the Medina, avoid the modern controversy
11:25 Look at those "white European Colonizer" grandparents of yours - they totally look like indigenous Baltic people. /s
I love your corny jokes, please don't cut them out. Love the classes too.
Doctor so much appreciated well done, promised land people Israel
Noah was in Northeast Turkey, Mt Ararat.
Thanks Doctor!
I loved the analogy with you’re grandfather.

Glad you found it useful!
There was a mention of Sennacherib and the Assyrians, but decided not to show Lachish Reliefs?
It’s actually in the background of the first five minutes of the lecture.
That clip was of the Assyrians not the Judeans/Israelites....But nice lecture. Biased, but informative.@@HenryAbramsonPhD
King Shalya in Mahabharat mentions to Karna the son of the SunGod, that his Anga kingdom given to him by Duryodhana, was noted as a lower kingdom, mocked, because its subjects were not as patriot as other kingdoms, and was sold as slaves. This is the true origin, which continues a millennium after in Egypt and Hebrews. Thereafter, many millenniums, history has been balanced by Rothchild the owner of EIC and the Western civilisation (British) in India.
Reply
religion is not nationality, it's a maner to live your relation with god. muslim are also a descendant of Ibraham, do not frgot it, you need to read bakara sourat
The most informative presentation I have seen so far... a little deceptive (understandably)
This life is very demanding & I think your dedication would be a service to the world
Culturally (where) you are born is your historical identification
(me, Californian- of the Americas)=> Not born Christian, Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist... (Choices)
Choices that can be converted
Was Israel (an empire of God) created by...
The U.N..?
Before the U.N.=> Were Jewish people (Israeli)
Hope you found it helpful
I ran the video a 3rd time for this reply... expecting twice that, at the very least@@HenryAbramsonPhD
9:34 - I noticed in your psychology - you got a 'haha we win in the end' complex? Pharoah is dead - but we are still alive. Ha ha we win. See what I mean?
Num24:2,5-9 And Balaam lifted up his eyes, and he saw Israel abiding in his tents according to their tribes; and the spirit of God came upon him. [5] How goodly are thy tents, O Jacob, and thy tabernacles, O Israel! [6] As the valleys are they spread forth, as gardens by the river's side, as the trees of lign aloes which the Lord hath planted, and as cedar trees beside the waters. [7] He shall pour the water out of his buckets, and his seed shall be in many waters, and his king shall be higher than Agag, and his kingdom shall be exalted. [8] God brought him forth out of Egypt; he hath as it were the strength of an unicorn: he shall eat up the nations his enemies, and shall break their bones, and pierce them through with his arrows. [9] He couched, he lay down as a lion, and as a great lion: who shall stir him up? Blessed is he that blesseth thee, and cursed is he that curseth thee.
The Biblical narrative always talks of an individual, eventually a family or a couple of those, traipsing from Mezopotamia to the present day Israel, then to Egypt, then back to the "promised land." But for every family that may have migrated to Egypt, surely there would have been many families that chose to stay put. So when Moses and his tribes returned after several generations, they would have encountered and waged war on their own brethren. Weren't the Canaanites the same Hebrews, merely different by having remained in Canaan, and having developed their own culture and customs in the meantime? Didn't they speak the same language? The same goes for Phoenicians (aka Philistines).
Love the joke about Chinese food containers! lol
