The Greatest Source Of Jewish History

This DVD-Collection contains more information than expected - a portable library of visual (9 series on 3 DVDs) and digital (Bonus-DVD) information. Three DVDs teaching about the Jews as a people, from ancient times to the present. Beginning with the origin of civilization in Mesopotamia, the viewer is led through biblical and medieval times. This stream of information opens out in the present situation of Jewish life.

To help understand Jewish history and to get rid of any prejudice against Jews, which is an important part of education, "Heritage" can and should be recommended.
