500 Years in the Jewish Caribbean:

The Spanish and Portuguese Jews in the West Indies

By Harry A. Ezratty


Volume 1: The New World Trilogy 

  

Escaping the Spanish Inquisition of the 15th to 19th Centuries, Jews from Spain and Portugal traveled westward. The history of their sojourn in the Caribbean honors the Jewish people, for it is there that they paved the way for freedoms now taken for granted by all Jews of the Western Hemisphere. This book (vol. 1 of the “New World Trilogy) presents an island-by-island description of their presence.

Meet Uriah Phillips Levy, who ran away to sea at 10, came back home to study and become Bar Mitzvah, and then went back to sea.

 The Passover Service in English/Spanish/Hebrew 


 By Harry A. Ezratty

Passover is the world’s oldest continuous religious celebration. For over 3,000 years, Jews have gathered to commemorate their release from the bondage of Egyptian slavery. 

. Jews are enjoined by Torah to recount the story of Passover and their deliverance from Egyptian slavery: “and thou shalt tell thy children…” The Torah, however, did not set forth the precise manner in which the tale was to be told. 


Passover es la celebración religiosa más antigua en el mundo. Por 3,000 años, los judios se han unido para conmemorar su liberación de la esclavitud.

El Torah la ordena a los judios a que cuenten la historia de Passover y de su liberación de la esclavitud en Egipto : « y vos le diréis a vuestro hijos… » El Torah, sin embargo, no indica la manera precisa en que la historia debe ser relatada.
