{"product_id":"the-rescue-of-jerusalem","title":"The Rescue of Jerusalem - The Alliance Between Hebrews and Africans in 701 BC","description":"In the summer of 701 BC, the powerful Assyrian army laid siege to Jerusalem, threatening  the Hebrew kingdom with destruction. Had Jerusalem perished, so too would Hebrew  society itself. Rabbinical Judaism and its two offshoots -- Christianity and Islam  -- could never have arisen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e But suddenly, the invaders fled, leaving the City of  David intact. Why? The Assyrian retreat has been one of history’s most enduring mysteries.  Now, in this ground-breaking account, award-winning writer Henry Aubin proves beyond  doubt that Jerusalem was saved by the army of the Kushite pharaoh of Egypt, made  up largely of Black Africans known as Nubians, from what is now Sudan. Led by  the great general Taharqa, who would go on to become a pharaoh himself, this African  army seldom figures in modern biblical scholarship -- the result, Aubin argues, of  a racist campaign over the last two centuries to erase the Kushite contribution to  Israel’s survival.","brand":"Penguin Random House","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50973737615648,"sku":"9780385659130","price":21.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0836\/3661\/7504\/files\/9780385659130.jpg?v=1764191452","url":"https:\/\/creativebysanchez.com\/es\/products\/the-rescue-of-jerusalem","provider":"Creative By Sanchez","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
