Amazing story of the Jews & the story of man....and a 1000 million individual human stories that were mixed up in that overview. And that represents only the last 2000 years. And it becomes even more overwhelming when you go farther back another 2000 years or 4000years before that . I had no idea the extent of the Roman destruction totalling 1 million which is about equal to the entire population of Rome itself . Endless war , endless destruction , endless subjugation jealousies , fear and boundless greed and expansion . Sure has been a trail of tears , mans rise in nature . Always much the same creature , just the scale of his reach has increased. One thing has changed , and that is many wars now are recorded in real-time , and brought right into the home ...no need to wait for the minstrel bards to sing about it later. Spears are hurled 100's of miles...like gods . But parts of those people then , remain in us today. No wonder man has always longed for the promised land and created so much out of longing , faith and hope. As if nature didn't offer enough challenges to us , and our tendency to overpopulate . We rose and fell so many times , it becomes dizzy looking back...
