What would you do if you were asked to believe something no one else believed? This Unit provides an answer to that question and so much more. In Ancient Hebrews, kids explore the origins of monotheism as described in the Hebrew Bible and take a deep dive into the life and times of ancient Israel.
They meet the heroes of the time and relive the conflicts this burgeoning group of people faced in their struggle to survive. They find out when and why Jews moved from Israel to other areas of the Middle East, southwestern Asia, Europe, and later Russia and North America.
Throughout the Unit, kids explore the cultural and historic threads that link a 3,000-year-old narrative to contemporary Judaism. History buffs will enjoy following the chronological retelling of the story of the ancient Hebrews – the conflicts, the triumphs, the travels, the hardships. Kids who have “heard of” David and Goliath, the 23rd Psalm, the Five Books of Moses, and other cultural icons will enjoy discovering their backstory. They will also want to find out more about Jewish holidays, such as Hanukkah, Passover, and Purim. Kids interested in the role of women will be eager to meet Naomi, Ruth, and Deborah, and learn of their contributions to the ancient Hebrews.
