Jewish History
Tov Me'od! Toda raba PBS and Arnold Labaton for this incredible journey into our Jewish Heritage. This is an excellently produced documentary in several series which explores the development of the cultural, historical, social and religious contributions of Jews throughout history. Abba Eban's narration is stellar. As mentioned, "using paintings, artifacts, modern cinematography of ancient sites, readings and theatrical music" presents a dramatic and splendid setting for this "masterpiece". It is presented with all the mellifluousness which we have come to expect from PBS. Bravo!
