It might happen again. But as it says in the Passover Haggadah, “In EVERY generation they rise up to destroy us, but the Holy One, Blessed Be He, delivers us out of their hands”.
True, Jews have been annihilated, forcibly converted to other religions, driven from our homes, BUT God always makes sure a remnant survives! Baruch Hashem (Praise His Name!)
Incidentally, in the mail late last week, I got a DVD I’d ordered from the History Channel, entitled simply, “The Inquisition” (evidently they do not recognize that there was more than one inquisition, but anyway…)
I started to watch it, but it got pretty graphic, what with the descriptions of the methods of torture. I put it aside, figuring its not a very edifying thing to be watching right before Passover, which for us Jews is called “the season of our redemption”!
