After the Jewish prophet Moses led the Jews back to Israel from Egypt, the Jews were divided into twelve branches and later unified into one kingdom. After the death of the last King Solomon, the ten branches in the north isolated the two ethnic groups in the south and established a new country, but the good times were soon destroyed by the Assyrian kingdom, so the Jews began the earliest large-scale exile, while the two branches in the south were destroyed by the Babylonian dynasty, and most of them became prisoners. Later, the Persian Empire destroyed Babylon. But this is only the beginning of Jewish exile. Two thousand years later, they traveled all over Europe, West Asia and North Africa. In modern times, they immigrated to the United States in large numbers. Marilyn Monroe and mark zuckerberg are both Jews.
In the Middle Ages, Jews were persecuted again and forced into exile. Judaism began to spread in the previous exile, and Christianity began to differentiate from Judaism. At first, the life of Jews in exile in Europe was not bad, because they were more educated and knowledgeable than Europeans and engaged in high-end occupations, but this made Europeans jealous. At this time, most nobles began to believe in Christianity, and the ruling class gradually attached importance to Christianity, while Judaism was excluded. Because Christianity spread the rumor that Jesus was killed by Jews, it provoked the relationship between Jews and Europeans. Coupled with the envy and hatred of the middle class, Jews in the Middle Ages were once again hated and slaughtered. Most of them fled to Eastern Europe and prospered again in Poland. However, with Christianity fully ruling Iberian Peninsula in the17th century, local Jews suffered the same persecution, and they also migrated to Eastern Europe. At this time, most Jews in the world settled in the western part of the Russian Empire and Poland. So during World War II, there would be so many Jews in the Soviet Union, Poland, Ukraine and the whole of Eastern Europe. It was not until 1948 that Israel was founded again that Jews who had been exiled for thousands of years were able to return to their motherland.
Why are you dressed so well and look rich? Similarly, during the Crusades in the Middle Ages, the rulers restricted the occupation of Jews, only allowed to engage in currency lending and a few trade activities, such as politics and culture, which were difficult to enter. On the contrary, it makes smart Jews rich, but the overall economy of Eastern Europe is not as good as that of Western Europe. Poland and the Soviet Union are both agricultural countries, and some Jews exiled here are still engaged in low-level labor such as agriculture, and there are not many rich people. Maybe the film describes the experience of some Jews who are not farmers in the Soviet Union, so they are better dressed.
