Early Jews for Jesus type brochure produced in the aftermath of the Holocaust. The greatest tragedy of history is the impoverishment of the Jewish soul which has come through the rejection of the Messiah-Jesus. The nationalism wherein we took refuge has dealt us a fatal blow. It has cut off the jugular vein of our spirits. When faced with the responsibility of the Jesus-question we have perpetuated the mistakes of our forefathers. The yielding to the tender love of Jesus has become associated with becoming a Gentile and a traitor. We do not realize that in accepting Him we drink at the fountain of living waters whereof our prophet Jeremiah spoke. SUBJECT(S) : WWII, Holocaust, Messianic Judaism.

Filled with insight and humor, this dual memoir by Rasia, born in Vilnius, Lithuania (who survived the Holocaust on a false identity) , and her daughter Helen, born in Montreal, Canada, examines the long-term implications of being a survivor of the Holocaust and the unique pressures and anxieties the children of survivors inherit from their parents.

1932Original Publishers Cloth. 8vo. X, 231 pages. 21 cm. In German. Originally published in English as Germany-Fascist or Soviet? This German translation interestingly became much more significant in Germany, which it described (in 1932! ) as being on the precipice of a collapse into Nazism or Communism. From the Preface (translated) : Five thousand Bolsheviks made the Russian Revolution. In Germany, there are an estimated 6 million voters for the Communist Party. 200 000 fascists in Italy brought Mussolini to power. Behind Adolf Hitler's Nazi party in Germany are possibly I2 million voters. How long can the German Republic survive? 56 per cent of interational trade is made in Europe. Almost 51% of Europe's foreign trade is in the hands of Germany. A temporary paralysis or even elimination of German participation in the economic machinery of the world would be felt in all countries. . America alone is involved with 38% of the total direct foreign investment in Germany and consequently has a greater interest in the preservation of private capitalism in the Republic than any other country in the world with the exception of Germany itself. $4, 000, 000, 000: this sum .
