- How did Israel defeat eight Arab nations in the Six-Day War?
- What led to a lasting peace between Israel and Egypt?
The ancient Israelites emerged from Mount Sinai onto the hilly plains of Canaan and established a civilization that endured for hundreds of years.
In the second part of this book, you will discover:
- How the ancient Israelites ended up in Canaan and began to build a civilization
- The establishment of the United Kingdom of Israel

- The Achaemenid liberation of the Jews and the formation of Yehud Medinata

- And so much more!
