| Summary | "A Synopsis of Jewish History" by H. A. Henry is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The work provides an overview of Jewish history from their return from Babylonian captivity to the days of Herod the Great, focusing on the different sects, the introduction of synagogues and schools, and significant religious practices among the Jewish people of that era. The opening of the book establishes its intent to offer accessible and informative summaries of pivotal moments in Jewish history. It begins with the return of the Jews to Jerusalem, detailing their efforts to rebuild the temple and society after years of captivity. The narrative highlights the leadership of figures such as Zerubbabel, Jeshua, and later Ezra and Nehemiah, emphasizing their commitment to restoring religious practices and governance. The text illustrates the struggles faced by returning Jews, including external opposition and the internal challenges of maintaining their faith and culture during a time of transition.
