The Jews of Egypt: From the Bible to the Golden Age and the Abraham Accords
Hosted By: Qesher
The Jewish Community in Egypt is as old as the Jewish tradition itself. Join this event to follow the Jewish presence from the time of the Bible through until its Golden Age, from around 1870 until the Suez Crisis in 1956. See how the tides changed for the community with the growth of Egyptian nationalism and the establishment of modern Israel. The tour will end with taking a look at the reality today, at the Jews, the synagogues and cemeteries that remain, and what efforts are being made to preserve this important part of Jewish and Egyptian history.
