| Did You Know? "The Jewish community in Greece boasts a rich and ancient history, dating back over 2,000 years to the time of the Second Temple. They are among the oldest Jewish communities in the diaspora. In medieval Greece, Jewish scholars played a pivotal role in preserving and translating key Greek philosophical texts into Hebrew and Arabic, bridging the gap between ancient Greek thought and the Jewish world. Thessaloniki, once known as the "Jerusalem of the Balkans," became a vibrant hub of Jewish culture and trade, with a majority Jewish population in the early 20th century. This enduring legacy highlights Greece's important role in Jewish history and heritage." |
