Also includes books suggested for further study, and an Index. Beryl D. Cohon was the Founding Rabbi of Temple Sinai, Brookline Massachusetts. He had a lustrous reputation as a writer and speaker on Judaism, the Bible and the Jewish backgrounds of Christianity. The author's complete familiarity with his subject, resulting fro years of intense study and discussion, has enabled him to outline boldly the historic events that occurred in the period in which the prophets lived, and to highlight the salient incidents in their lives. Against this historical background, the author has often permitted each prophet to speak his now message in his own words--thus capturing the color, the power, and essential genius of Hebrew prophecy. Because the prophets were impassioned champions of justice and conscience at a time when their world was shaken by conflict, their message has a particular significance for our own time. This volume will be welcomed by all who would know the Hebrew prophets in all their vigor and vitality. More

The Six-Day War, also known as the June War, 1967 Arab–Israeli War, or Third Arab–Israeli War, was fought between 5 and 10 June 1967 by Israel and the neighboring states Egypt (known at the time as the United Arab Republic), Jordan, and Syria. On 5 June, Israel launched what it claimed were a series of preemptive airstrikes against Egyptian airfields. Which side caused the war is one of a number of controversies relating to the conflict.

Simultaneously, the Israelis launched a ground offensive into the Gaza Strip and the Sinai, which again caught the Egyptians by surprise. More
