In "The Invention of the Jewish People," historian Shlomo Sand presents a revolutionary narrative of Jewish and Israeli history. Challenging the longstanding belief that Jews were exiled by the Romans in the first century, Sand asserts that the majority of contemporary Jews are descendants of converts from various regions in the Middle East and Eastern Europe. This thought-provoking book not only achieved significant success, staying on the Israeli bestseller list for nineteen weeks, but also received the prestigious Aujourd'hui Award in France. The work lays the groundwork for a reimagined perspective on Israel's future.
