Like Jewish intelligence.
I think everyone has no objection to this. According to relevant statistics, the total number of Jews in the world is around160,000, accounting for 0.2% of the global population. But it is such a trivial group that many celebrities have emerged. For example, Einstein, Marx, Freud, Picasso, and now Zuckerberg, Spielberg, Soros and other people who have almost led the trend of world civilization are actually Jews.
Not only that, Jews account for about 22% of the global Nobel Prize winners. All kinds of data show that Jews have great advantages in IQ and creativity.
Like Jewish education.
Jewish Havruta education has also been sought after by many parents.
Havruta in Hebrew means * * * to study together, which was later extended to a learning method based on group discussion. It can be said that this way of learning runs through the life of Jewish children. We can even see from some research materials that when many Jewish children are in their mothers' bellies, their parents begin to cultivate their ability in this respect through constant dialogue.
This is especially true when children grow up. Jewish parents tend to care more about whether their children are asking questions, discussing with others and gaining anything. This is in stark contrast to our parents' concern about whether their children have a good class and whether they have good grades in the exam.
It can be said that this way of active thinking and mutual communication makes Jews a unique form of education.
Of course, when it comes to the influence of Jews, it goes far beyond these two points. In fact, in the long history of human civilization, Jewish civilization is definitely worth writing, and there is no fault to cover it up.
Today, Happy Dad will talk to you about Jewish civilization.
I think many readers and friends are a little confused when they see this place. Happy dad talked about Jewish civilization here for a long time, talking about how good it is, how much influence it has had on human civilization and how much inspiration it has brought. So when we talk about Jewish civilization, what are we talking about?
We are talking about Jewish culture.
Through the book Five Thousand Years of Jewish Civilization, we can generally understand that the so-called Jewish civilization, more specifically, is Jewish culture.
For example, the most famous Talmud culture can be regarded as the first special religious culture of Jews. The last masterpiece Talmud is about 2.5 million words, which describes life legends, poetry laws, agricultural medicine and so on, and truly connects religious culture with people's daily life. It can be said that it has achieved the goal of religious culture where there are people, and it can be said that it is the cornerstone of Jewish civilization!
The book "Five Thousand Years of Jewish Civilization" tells in detail the three major wanderings experienced by the Jewish nation, but it is amazing that such a nation, which has been constantly migrating and suffering setbacks, can rebuild its homeland again and again and get better development by its own ability.
What are they based on?
origin
The origin of Jewish civilization is "Canaan".
Before 3000 AD, Canaan was both a place name and the name of Noah's grandson. At that time, this place was still a "livable city" and its natural environment was quite superior. It is called "the place where milk and honey flow". And the location of Canaan is also very good. If Canaan is connected with two river basins, it is in the middle, which is unique. In fact, from today's perspective, Canaan is also a very good place, connecting three continents and two oceans. They are Asia, Africa, Europe, the Mediterranean and the Red Sea, and the meeting point is naturally a very important position.
It is precisely because of the superior natural environment and good geographical location that the late world-famous Jewish civilization was born here. Of course, this is another story.
However, if the weather is not good, then drought and famine will break out in such a beautiful Canaan, that is, from then on, Jews began to be displaced and Canaan became their haunted place.
Let's talk about the Jews who lived here after the Canaan disaster. In order to survive, they had to move to a more livable place. They first moved to the vicinity of the Nile Delta, but their life there was quite painful, and they were turned into slaves, not to mention the danger of genocide. In desperation, they had to escape again. Fortunately, at this time, they had the legendary hero Moses. Under the guidance of Moses, the Jews continued to migrate and made a big circle, and finally returned to Canaan.
Speaking of Moses, I have to say more. He is indeed a very important figure in Jewish history.
In the process of migration, Moses made three chapters with Jews, which is actually the embryonic form of the later Ten Commandments, the foundation of Judaism, the formation of the Jewish nation and the origin of Jewish civilization.
Throughout the history of the Jews, it can really be described as "troubled".
But how did they keep the fire of civilization in this wandering life and influence generations of Jews?
In fact, this has a lot to do with their national spirit, or spiritual pillar.
So, what is the spiritual pillar of the Jews?
The first is the deep-rooted religious culture.
As Happy Dad said above, from Talmud's representative works, Jews have a very practical religious culture. This kind of culture makes them have a stronger sense of national identity, especially in combating persecution in various crisis situations, and religious culture enables them to unite as one to keep warm and tide over difficulties together.
In addition, the religious culture of Jews is not static. They just preach some myths and legends, moral principles and so on. They will also keep pace with the times and start to develop their own production industries or rise up against oppression according to the real living environment.
The greater the external pressure, the more popular and United the Jewish religious culture is.
And their firm beliefs.
In Jewish legend, they were chosen by God to represent God's will on earth.
This kind of fanatical belief can indeed give birth to more perseverance and more fighting qualities of this nation, because there is always light in their hearts. They believe that all kinds of disappointments now are just God's tests for them. Once the test is over one day, it is time for the whole Jewish civilization to spread all over the world.
It is this belief that supports them to overcome one difficulty after another, and also supports their independence and not being assimilated by other cultures.
Of course, Jewish intermarriage is also a spiritual pillar! After all, in that turbulent era, the effect of this approach was obvious. For example, we can ensure that the population of our nation remains within a certain number, and we have abundant manpower no matter what we do; For example, if everyone is inextricably linked, they will be able to work hard in one place; For example, you can stabilize your culture more, and you won't gradually lose your cultural heritage because there are too many foreigners.
In fact, throughout the history of Jewish civilization, it is a history of suffering, resistance, faith and sustainable development.
The initial choice of many Jews is actually very enlightening to us in another ancient civilization.
