Long form article-thread on Christopher Clark's book on German missionary activity among Jews and Clark's theories for the transformation of that "eschatology" from the days of the Reformation up until the Third Reich or "How German Christians go from 'The Jews are our salvation' to the 'Jews are our misfortune"

One of the pre-occupations of ecclesiastical - but also merchant and even noble - elites in Germany in the 17th and 18th centuries was the conversion of the Jews. Christopher Clark has explored this subject in detail and – in his view - this was not a simple issue of practicality.

The conversion of the Jews was understood in “eschatological terms”, as this conversion was apart of the fulfillment of biblical prophecy. One primary and early example of this studied by Clark was the Institutum Judaicum founded by Johann Heinrich Callenberg in 1728 which sought to evangelize the Jews but also to transform their culture and social ethics. Missions like these were not particularly successful (leading to a small amount of conversions, and even the successful conversions were – in some cases - just Jews (and even some poor people impersonating Jews) using the mission as a way to find food or employment), but furthermore, this specific institute and these missionary efforts continued on because the eschatological mission was seen as essential for promoting a Christian worldview and a Christian mission for the state. This excerpt from Clark summarizes this well, citing another German theologian by the name of Phillip Jakob Spener

"If we look at Holy Scripture, we need not doubt that God has promised a better state of the Church on Earth. We have, above all, the heartfelt prophecy of St Paul and the mystery revealed to him (Romans, XI: 25, 26), of how Israel shall become blessed after the fullness of the heathens shall be gone in, so that a great part, if not all, of the hitherto stubborn Jews shall be converted to the Lord"

@josh_hammer This sort of slavishness to the Zionist donor class is the equivalent of indulgences in Luther's day

@rakishanis My understanding - I think this comes from Schama's book - is Dutch workhouses were more heavy handed than most

[Wolfgang Hutter @WolfgangHutter2]

People rarely bring up 17th century Dutch workhouses as a solution to the problem of beggars and the homeless. Worth considering.

Alan Taylor on Bejamin Tibbetts - an early settler of Maine and a veteran of the War of 1812 - as a case study in the worldview of the early American "revolutionary" frontiersmen, "white Indians" who feared God and didn't let a century old land deed stand between them and their autonomy as yeoman farmers, "freeholders", and patriarchs (from one of Taylor's first books entitled "Liberty Men and Great Proprietors" a very worthwhile book for anyone interested in the early American frontier or the origins of Jeffersonian politics)

Whatever happened to Ahmed Chalibi? Where do they store him at? I miss him....they should defrost him and put him in charge of Syria or some place like that.

[Wolfgang Hutter @WolfgangHutter2]

Saxon bog drowning is more appropriate in that case (workhouses and guillotines are to humanitarian)

People rarely bring up XVIIth century Dutch solutions for corrupt politicians, too 😈

Reinhart Koselleck on nuclear weapons as the final stage or "completion" of a historical and "technical-political process" (this quote comes from a letter written in the mid-1950's).

This is an excellent sermon by John MacArthur for today and helps explain what has been, is, and will continue to happen in a worse way, both in the US and the world. Do yourself a favor and listen to it. Then share it with others. https://t.co/cow63h59ns

What used to be our nation is run by mental infants. This has replaced the Bible and Homer. God help us

@DanBurmawy I literally just don't want to pay for their shit and I don't want undue foreign influence over American institutions. The left and right objections to Israel aren't the same. Isolationist objections are far more reasonable

[Wolfgang Hutter @WolfgangHutter2]

The quotes are from Mommsen's history of Rome. Unfortunately, im not sure which volume (all of them have been translated and are readily available). @RogueScholarPr has published one of the earlier volumes, but there all on Amazon. The block quote itself came from a book entitled "Family and Civilization" by Carle Zimmerman

[Wolfgang Hutter @WolfgangHutter2]

Theodor Mommsen on moral degeneration and the decline of the family in the Roman empire.

@Shinich08413513 I love half of these albums, but is this really black metal in the way most people referencing the term would recognize it in the last 25 years?

Reich citizenship laws in Czechia were less coercive than previous ones due to there racial exclusivity.

Amazing what primary documents can do.

@DiabolicalSpuds I mean that is kind of how it works. It doesn't literally liquify automatically, but if you cook under low heat, it becomes so soft and thin that with a little pressure it basically liquifies.
