From Mount Scopus in Jerusalem, Zola begins this series with the father of the nation, Abraham. This humble man from Ur relocated to a land he had never seen and received a promise to be a blessing to all people on earth. We find a school that teaches recent immigrants from the former Soviet Union about their Jewish history and culture.
