Uprooting an Ancient Hatred
A 4 PART VIDEO SERIES ON ANTISEMITISM BY FIRM Israel
Antisemitism has left a devastating mark on history, fueled by deep spiritual roots and evolving into modern expressions like anti-Zionism. This video series by FIRM Israel unpacks antisemitism’s historical and theological roots while exploring how the Church can confront this hatred with truth, love, and action.
EPISODE 1:
WHAT IS ANTISEMITISM? WHY THE RISE IN JEW-HATRED TODAY?
Why do the Nations rage against Israel? History is rife with iterations of the same story of hatred against the Jews over and over. FIRM Israel explores the origin of antisemitism and its roots in a deeper spiritual warfare exhibited throughout the bible – from Eden to Gethsemane.
EPISODE 2:
HISTORY OF ANTISEMITISM: IS THIS PART OF CHRISTIANITY?
How did the Church get so far away from the origins of our Jewish Messiah? FIRM Israel takes an honest look at early Church history and some of the antisemitic theological developments that occurred. How was the stage set for violent hatred of Jews to flourish to the point of mass genocide?
EPISODE 3:
ANTISEMITISM TODAY
The truth is antisemitism didn’t die with the end of the Holocaust. The new face of antisemitism is now branded as Anti-Zionism. The end of the Holocaust brought the re-establishment of a Jewish state (Zion) in Israel and with that… a new wave of opponents. But the longing for Zion, a home for the Jewish people, is an ancient hope that is historically always opposed – from Nehemiah to October 7th.
EPISODE 4:
HOW CAN THE CHURCH FIGHT ANTISEMITISM?
How do we fight against the rise of antisemitism? How can the Church heal such deep wounds? FIRM Israel explores ways the Church can overcome its antisemitic history and reject faulty teachings that fan the flame of antisemitism.
