“Today’s anti-Semitism is a propaganda machine fed by religious hatred and misinformation. Christians not only must avoid being consumed by it, but also must stand against it.” - P&D
As iron sharpens iron,
one person sharpens another. (Proverbs 27:17)

“The Genocide Convention of 1948 was established in order to prevent the atrocities that took place during the Holocaust from happening again. One hundred and fifty-two countries…. It reads: ‘acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group.’” - Jerusalem Post
When the Arab terrorist group Hamas entered Israel on October 7, the world was horrified. On that day, these terrorists kidnapped 200, killed 1,400, and wounded more than 4,500 Israelis. Innocent men, women, and children were slaughtered simply because they were Jewish.
The appalling attack brings to memory another terrible act of violence against the Jewish people that took place 85 years ago. On November 9–10, 1938, innocent Jewish Germans endured devastating physical and spiritual darkness much like the evil perpetrated against Israel today.
“I contend, any evangelical now claiming to feel sorrow for the Jewish nation should feel just as much mercy and compassion for Ukraine, the history of which is inextricably linked with Israel.” - Providence
“ ‘It’s too heartbreaking, I think. It’s very hard,’ Worshill told Baptist Press as Israel marks Yom HaShoah beginning this evening (April 17). ‘It’s a whole side of the family that basically doesn’t exist anymore because they were killed in the camps, or killed in the resistance.’” - BPNews
“Jan. 27 was set by the United Nations as International Day of Commemoration in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust. It was on this date in 1945 that Allied troops liberated the infamous Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp.” - World
“Jews are only 2% of the American population, but the FBI has stated they account for more than half of the targeted hate crimes.” - Breakpoint
Paul the Apostle was from the tribe of Benjamin. In Luke 2:36a, we read about a widow named Anna who prophesied about the infant Jesus. “There was also a prophet, Anna, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher.” The priests were from the tribe of Levi. The largest of all the tribes, however, was the tribe of Judah. We see these particular tribes mentioned in the New Testament (obviously excluding Revelation 7, where all the tribes are mentioned except Dan).
“A group that advocates for Jewish prayer on the Temple Mount reported that more than 10,000 Jewish worshippers had visited it between September and November in violation of an agreement between Israel and Jordan — an increase of 80% compared with recent years.” - RNS
“…the findings were announced this week by Infinity Concepts, a faith-based communications agency that co-produced the report with Grey Matter Research.” - CPost
