Why have the Jews survived?

[yiostheoy]

As for me and mine I will bless Israel all the days of my life! Though none go with me I will stand with Israel and her people for they are the chosen of G_d and He changes Not nor does His Word or His Promises! He is fulfilling His Work made to His People regathering His People into His Land He gave them never to be moved again. Woo to those who touch the apple of G_d's eye. If G_d does not fulfill His promises to the Jews then His promises mean nothing. Hear oh world for His arm is not weak nor is it short to perform what He has declared to his children Israel. Just as The King of Egypt spoke his own fate upon himself be careful the world does not bring its own fate down upon its own head.

“I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you.”
- Genesis 12:1-3

For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, for Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet, till her righteousness shines out like the dawn, her salvation like a blazing torch.
- Isaiah 62:1

Pray for the peace of Jerusalem: they that love thee shall prosper. Peace be within thy walls, and prosperity within thy palaces. For my brethren and companions’ sakes, I will say now, peace be within thee. For the sake of the House of the Lord our God I will seek thy good.
– Psalm 122

They were pleased to do it, and indeed they owe it to them. For if the Gentiles have shared in the Jews’ spiritual blessings, they owe it to the Jews to share with them their material blessings.
- Romans 15:27 (NIV)

Only Jews write "G_D".

It's an English word only, but they get so sacrosanct about it.

It is Jews who are desperate to make their ancient nonsense sacrosanct.

"Chosen people" bull crap.

If they were so "chosen" then why did Adolf so easily murder so many of them?

Jews are no different than anybody else.

Just more clannish.

They are lucky that the UK, Russia, and USA agreed with them to reclaim their own ancient lands. Just lucky.

Truman stated that he was afraid of Jewish political power in the USA if he did NOT support them in 1948.

Politics is simply a numbers game.

How easily people's perception can get screwed up. This should give most a good clue as to why many can not reconcile the words or different world views on what it all means.

[Deleted member 61768]

All those hundreds and hundreds of Millions of Muslims cursing tiny little Israel and swearing by Allah for how many years to drive them into the sea and wipe them from the face of the earth and yet not only have they not been wiped from the face of the earth but they have prospered, their land has grown and the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob has blessed them! The German Third Reich tried to exterminate them and yet it is the German Third Reich who said they were going to establish a 1000 year reign who are destroyed. The Roman Empire who tried to utterly erase them; where are they today? Some even the so called "Christian" church like the Catholic Church where are they today? They have faced disgrace, scandal, and been scorned by even their own "Christian brothers". Genesis 12:3

Because they are the apple of God's eye. He watches over Israel day and night. He neither sleeps nor slumbers.

This is worth repeating because apparently everyone but you recognizes it.

Historians will tell you that their continued existence and contributions to mankind disproportionate to their tiny numbers is inexplicable. When pressed on their success, they give all credit to God. Thus their chosenness is the least arrogant answer they can give.

"Over 300 years ago King Louis XIV of France asked Blaise Pascal, the great French philosopher, to give him proof of the supernatural. Pascal answered: "Why, the Jews, your Majesty ― the Jews."

History Crash Course #67: The Miracle of Jewish History

The question should be Why have the Jews survived given all they have faced.. The answer can be found in the book of Jonah as long as it is read as an allegory and not taken literally.... It should come as no surprise that Israel is thriving in spite of the obstacles arrayed against her ..... Yes the United States is in her corner at the moment but this wasn't always the case as it did not suit them and they might not see eye to eye in the future but such is the way of the nations or peoples they are like the waves of the ocean where first one rises up and then falls down only to be replaced by another wave which cannot maintain itself and falls like the others before it... Israel is solid and unmoving like the land and is not bothered by the many nations who clamber and make noise like the rushing waters but in the end are fleeting and without a solid foundation in which to rest and become more then just liquid which easily slips out of ones grasp...

Why have the Assyrians survived ??

Why have the Swiss survived ??

Why have the Danes or Swedes survived ??

Why have the Berbers survived ??

Etc.

Sometimes the answer is geographic isolation.

Sometimes it is clannishness however.

Myopia is not why. Open your eyes and look around you.

Geographic isolation? Clannishness? Seriously? By any objective measure none of these peoples that you have listed have made contributions to mankind like the Jewish people. This is especially true when you consider their contributions in light of their disproportionate numbers. Now factor in their continued existence for 3000 years against all odds. Why is it so hard for you to acknowledge a tiny people who defeated the superpower of their day and went on to make such overwhelming contributions is unique? What exactly have the peoples you listed done?

The Jewish Contribution to World Civilization

 

[Penelope]

Please give credit to the countries their universities were in, Germany and the US. A good question is how did the Germans survive and become the largest nationality in the US?

Why have the Jews Survived?

Parasites always survive.

Not when they kill their host.

They never run out of hosts, from Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Germany, Britain, France, US, SA, they have been expelled from countries , but they never had a nation of their own, their own soil so they lived off of others, and to their credit they did add a lot to society attending their host countries universities, but they also did damage along the way. No one is innocent.
