Book excerpt: According to tradition Caucasian Jews descended from the Ten Tribes exiled from the Kingdom of Israel in the first millenium BCE, making them one of the oldest communities of Jewish people anywhere. This remarkable population preserved its Jewish identity and developed a culture of its own in a region inhabited by a host of different peoples and plagued by ethnic tensions. The term "Mountain Jews" (they call themselves "Juhur") dates back to Imperial Russia's occupation of the Caucasus in the early nineteenth century, when the tsar's visiting representative referred to "Mountain Jews" living mainly in the east and north of the Caucasus range, in what is today the largely Muslim areas of Dagestan and Azerbaijan. After their emigration to Israel, Caucasian Jews continued to resist integration, sharing in Israel's upbuilding without losing touch with their roots in and ties to the Caucasus. Along with her fellow essayists Mordechai Altshuler, Moshe Yosifov, Michael Zand, Ariella Amar, Boris Khaimovich, Anatoly Binyaminov, and Tyilo Khizghilov, author Liya Mikdash-Shamailov, a Jew of Caucasian origin, successfully blends her scientific interest in the community with her own special affinity with its culture. The fruit of many years of field work and extensive research, Mountain Jews presents, in words and striking pictures of this people and its practices, the history, spiritual life, language and literature, daily life, material culture, and decorative arts which together define the rich and extraordinary cultural heritage of Caucasian, "Mountain" Jews.
Book Synopsis Azerbaijani Jews in Sports by : Asif Bayramov

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The revised and updated edition of Azerbaijan Jews in Sports reveals the achievements of Jewish star athletes, past and present.

The heroes of his book overcame tremendous challenges to achieve greatness, overcame hate, and persevered through their belief in freedom and human dignity. The book teaches and promotes tolerance and friendship between people of various faiths. It contributes to the fight against bias and discrimination against religious minorities, including the Jewish community. The book is especially valuable and important now that hatred and antisemitism are on the rise in the USA and everywhere in the world. The book is intended for high school and university students and may be useful to specialists in humanizing their thinking.
Book Synopsis The Jews of Azerbaijan by : Rabbi Israel Barouk
Download or read book The Jews of Azerbaijan written by Rabbi Israel Barouk and published by Berkeley Press. This book was released on 2017-12-17 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Azerbaijan, a 95% majority-Muslim country, has been home to Jewish communities for over 2,000 years. Throughout that time, and perhaps most impressively in the geopolitical climate of today, Azerbaijan has stood out as a beacon of interreligious harmony and respect. It is a place where Jewish history is like no other - a place where Mountainous Jews have always called their home and speak a unique language unheard in the rest of the world. Azerbaijan is a Muslim country where a Jewish woman is one of the Supreme Court justices and a Jewish man is a prominent leader in parliament. It has the largest all-Jewish town outside of Israel, a few hours drive from the capital city of Baku. It has a history unlike any other nation in the world, of protecting and empowering Jews within the country, and that remains true today. The story of Jewish life in Azerbaijan serves as a remarkable model giving us a glimpse into what is possible for the rest of the world, when it comes to something as important as religion, freedom, and the value of every life. Rabbi Israel Barouk completed his Rabbinical degree and Dayanas, as a Judge of the Jewish Court, at Yeshivat Or Elchonon. Originally from Jerusalem, New York City and Paris and currently based in Los Angeles, Rabbi Barouk works with leaders and communities across the globe to study, understand and engage with how "positive multiculturalism" serves as a powerful mechanism toward peace.

Excerpt: The Khazars were semi-nomadic Turkic people who established one of the largest polities of medieval Eurasia, with the capital of Atil and territory comprising much of modern-day European Russia, western Kazakhstan, eastern Ukraine, Azerbaijan, large portions of the northern Caucasus (Circassia, Dagestan), parts of Georgia, the Crimea, and northeastern Turkey. A successor state of the Western Turks, Khazaria was a polyethnic state with a population of Turkic, Uralic, Slavic, and Palaeo-Caucasian peoples. Khazaria was the first feudal state to be established in Eastern Europe. During the 9th and 10th centuries, Khazaria was one of the major arteries of commerce between northern Europe and southwestern Asia, as well as a connection to the Silk Road. The name "Khazar" is found in numerous languages and seems to be tied to a Turkic verb form meaning "wandering" (Modern Turkish: Gezer). Because of their jurisdiction over the area, the Caspian Sea was named the "Khazar Sea," and even today the Azeri, Turkish, ...

Book Synopsis Scattered Among the Nations by : Bryan Schwartz
Download or read book Scattered Among the Nations written by Bryan Schwartz and published by WeldonOwn+ORM. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 594 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A beautifully presented book on Jewish diversity around the world . . . opens windows into lives from the hills of Portugal to the plains of Africa.” —The Jerusalem Post With vibrant photographs and intricate accounts Scattered Among the Nations tells the story of the world’s most isolated Jewish communities in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Former Soviet Union and the margins of Europe. Over two thousand years ago, a shipwreck left seven Jewish couples stranded off India’s Konkan Coast, south of Bombay. Those hardy survivors stayed, built a community, and founded one of the fascinating groups described in this book—the Bene Israel of India’s Maharasthra Province. This story is unique, but it is not unusual. We have all heard the phrase “the lost tribes of Israel,” but never has the truth and wonder of the Diaspora been so lovingly and richly illustrated. To create this amazing chronicle of faith and resilience, the authors visited Jews in thirty countries across five continents, hearing origin stories and family histories that stretch back for millennia. “Beautiful, even breathtaking . . . a Jewish (Inter) National Geographic, wisely reminding us that the strategies for survival of Jews in distant lands may be relevant to our own.” —Rabbi Lawrence Kushner, Emanu-El Scholar at Congregation Emanu-El of San Francisco and author of I’m God; You’re Not “This exquisite book is a gift to the Jewish people, dramatically stretching our understanding of ‘Jewish’ . . . A book to be savored, read and re-read, and transmitted from one generation to the next.” —Yossi Klein Halevi, Senior Fellow, Shalom Hartman Institute, Jerusalem
