Book Description
Ten-year old Boaz has a gift. He has instincts and moves of a master warrior, which very quickly get him a lot of attention. The problem is that it's the attention of both the prince of his tribe, Caleb, and the leader of all the tribes of Israel, Joshua, exactly as they start the campaign of conquest of the land of Canaan. Young Boaz gets pulled into the middle of the fighting as his nation of escaped slaves plows its way through a land filled with enemies. Boaz gets swept up in both the miracles that Joshua calls upon as well as in the training Caleb gives him to grow and expand his special abilities. Boaz learns to use Isaac's Sight to peer into his enemy's spirit and Naftali's Speed to dash around opponents. He crosses the miraculously parted Jordan River, scurries through the falling walls of Jericho and gets Joshua to stop the sun as he uses his own powers and battles enemies throughout the land of Canaan. But there is one enemy that is not impressed by the young Israelite's achievements. Deadly Akavish of Philistine vows to kill the upstart Boaz and put a stop to the inexorable advance of the tribes of Israel. While remaining true to the Biblical text, this first installment of the Warrior Prophets series, Joshua: Conqueror brings a Tolkien-like view of the Biblical tales mixed with fantasy and adventure, as our young hero discovers himself and his place in the turbulent era of magic, miracles and conquest.

Book Description
This volume deals with one of the most peculiar Jewish communities in the Diaspora, the Jews of Yemen. Their history began a long time before the advent in 622 AD of Islam. Their political and social highpoint came during the last generations of the Judaized Yemenite Kingdom of Himyar (c. 400-525). This book contains 16 studies, encompassing various aspects of Jewish existence in Yemen as a dhimmi (protected) religious minority under Islam: history, social and cultural relations with the Muslim environment, culture, literature and language. Yemenite Jewish traditions are highly esteemed in the modern spiritual and artistic life of the Jewish people both in the State of Israel and in the Diaspora. All the studies in this volume (except one written in collaboration with 'Offer Livneh) are the work of one of the leading scholars of Yemenite Jewry.

Book Description
Sarah Schenirer and the Bais Yaakov movement she founded represent a revolution in the name of tradition in interwar Poland. The new type of Jewishly educated woman the movement created was a major innovation in a culture hostile to female initiative. A vivid portrait of Schenirer that dispels many myths.

Book Description
The readmission of some categories of Jews into Kiev in 1859 brought about a rapid rise of the Jewish community in the city. Kiev had a symbolical significance as "the mother of the Russian cities" and was an important religious center, so the massive migration of Jews in it provoked anxiety among the Christians. The authorities and to some extent voluntary associations of Kiev tried to maintain a segregation between the Jews and non-Jews; while attacking Jews for their "isolation", they opposed also Jewish cultural assimilation. Describes the pogrom of 1881 and the bloody pogrom of October 1905. Argues that the pogroms of 1881 in Kiev and elsewhere took place mainly in the areas of new Jewish settlement. The pogromists in Kiev called not so much to "beat the Jews" as to expel them from the city. Dismisses the view that the perpetrators of the pogrom were vagabond workers from central Russia: the role of the locals in the riot was significant. The 1905 pogrom was a by-product of the revolution, in which many Jews took part. The authorities not only were reluctant to stop it (as it was also in 1881), but even encouraged the rioters for violence. Christian neighbors nearly always refused to hide or to protect Jews. Dozens were killed in what the nationalists regarded as a symbolic reconquest of Kiev from "seditionist Jews". Describes also the Beilis case in Kiev, which can be regarded that an anti-Jewish campaign launched by the all-Russian right rather than by Kiev antisemites. The pogroms shattered the hopes of most Jews for peaceful coexistence with non-Jews, but did not stop the Jewish migration to Kiev and their acculturation.
