Adiel Sherwood (1791-1879) helped establish some of the first antebellum efforts in education, temperance, and mission outreach in Georgia, especially among Georgia Baptists. Notably, he was head of a school in Eatonton; professor at Columbian College in Washington, DC; chair of sacred literature at Mercer University; president of Shurtleff College in Illinois; president of Masonic College in Missouri; then back to Georgia in 1857 as president of Marshall College at Griffin; whence, following the Civil War, he "retired" to Missouri. But especially in Georgia he is remembered as a venerable Baptist pastor and teacher and an accomplished organizer of Baptist causes. Sherwood submitted the resolution that led to the formation of the Georgia Baptist Convention. By promoting benevolent and educational causes such as Sunday schools and temperance societies, he helped fashion the Georgia Baptist Convention into an active missionary body that eventually overshadowed the antimissionary Baptists in the state. Sherwood was probably the most important spiritual influence in the founding of Mercer University, helping set the tone for creating a Baptist university committed to both inquiring faith and rigorous academics.

A few of them we know of through history, but the author makes us think a lot deeper about them. Anyone who knows anything about WWII will undoubtable know the names Reinhard Heydrich and Heinrich Himmler, but the fictional twists to their characters within the story is very interesting...This book is exciting, emotional, and fantastically written.

The writing pulled me in completely."- Goodreads reviewer⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "Whenever somebody mentions time travel one of the first questions that comes up is if you could go back in time would you kill Hitler. In Adiel and the Fuhrer that is pretty much the situation we are faced with. Great characterisation as usual from this author, also great writing in in general."- Goodreads reviewer

Adiel Schremer

Oxford University Press Inc

The emergence of formative Judaism has traditionally been examined in light of a theological preoccupation with the two competing religious movements, 'Christianity' and 'Judaism' in the first centuries of the Common Era. In this book Ariel Schremer attempts to shift the scholarly consensus away from this paradigm, instead privileging the rabbinic attitude toward Rome, the destroyer of the temple in 70 C.E., over their concern with the nascent Christian movement. The palpable rabbinic political enmity toward Rome, says Schremer, was determinative in the emerging construction of Jewish self-identity. He asserts that the category of heresy took on a new urgency in the wake of the trauma of the Temple's destruction, which demanded the construction of a new self-identity. Relying on the late 20th-century scholarly depiction of the slow and measured growth of Christianity in the empire up until and even after Constantine's conversion, Schremer minimizes the extent to which the rabbis paid attention to the Christian presence. He goes on, however, to pinpoint the parting of the ways between the rabbis and the Christians in the first third of the second century, when Christians were finally assigned to the category of heretics.

Dans son histoire des Juifs d'Alg rie, Adiel Caspi, n Alger en 1937, rappelle les origines de cette diaspora il y a plus de 2500 ans, et ses liens troits avec les Ph niciens venus cr er Carthage puis tablir des comptoirs tout au long des c tes du Maghreb. S'appuyant sur les documents historiques les plus cr dibles, l'auteur fait le point sur les questions suivantes: - quels sont les liens r els entre les Berb res du pays et les immigrants juifs des premiers si cles - quoi fut d e la tr s grande mis re des ces communaut s avant 1830 - pourquoi elles ont failli dispara tre compl tement au 12e si cle - quelles furent les vraies raisons de la colonisation fran aise - comment la nationalit fran aise leur a t presque impos e par les Juifs de France - pourquoi le d cret Cr mieux a accru l'antis mitisme des colons - comment les Juifs assimil s ont eu le dessus sur les rabbins les plus traditionnels -comment s'est creus le foss entre les communaut s juives et musulmanes - pourquoi Roosevelt a voulu mettre Alger des gens de Vichy, comme Darlan et Giraud, la t te de la France Libre - pourquoi de Gaulle a menti tout le monde sur l'Alg rie - pourquoi les Juifs d'Alg rie ne pouvaient plus rester dans le pays et pourquoi la majorit a choisi la France... Caspi termine en essayant de r pondre la question: les Juifs d'Alg rie ont-ils t heureux dans ce pays que leurs descendants n'ont pas l'air de tellement regretter? Il nous donne alors la r ponse d'Albert Camus cette question.
