The Inquisition
Spectacular Spain '99

First given on the 17th of Tammuz, this lecture traces not only the Spanish Inquisition but touches on all the major tragedies Jews have suffered throughout history. At the center of each one was a weakening of Torah observance. A sobering message appropriate for the Three Weeks and all year round, listeners will appreciate this melding of ancient, medieval, and modern history with Torah values and philosophy.
