Doomed to Fail

The tribe of Judea has been faithful in its 
gratitude that YWHW made his ineffable
presence known to them that they dedicated
themselves to his glory in perpetual worship
and thus has it been since the beginning of
ancient history tasked by the Almighty to be
a light unto the nations and through the goodness
of their existence obeying heavenly guidelines
impressing upon others the magnificence and
the power and the glory of God. Despite an
almighty struggle against the forces of disbelief
and abhorrence the people of Israel failed in
their task, their numbers arrested, their presence
abroad and within their ancient homeland 
diminished as the world memorably rejected
both their belief and their presence. Their
spiritual devotion saw reflection in the brief
presence of a Messiah, one of their own whose 
adherents still despised Judeans' presence on 
this Earth and devised countless monumental 
atrocities for their destruction. From a second 
source taking possession of God's scriptures 
for their own came another source of violent 
persecution with no end. Through millennia 
reduced to centuries of malice and threats
struggles and death the people survived in 
discreet numbers unwilling and defiant against 
those intent on their final destruction. Through 
sheer intransigence to total annihilation Jews 
survive, their detractors claiming for themselves
the position of God's emissaries on Earth have 
also seen abject failure. Only their creator can 
know why he chose Jews to herald his presence 
and through that abandoned them to their fate.
Hear Oh Israel, the Lord thy God is One ....
