Description: This book offers a rare glimpse into the secretive world of Jewish organizations in Eastern Europe, particularly the Kahal and Bet Dine, providing the clearest picture to date of their authority structure and judicial practices. The author, a Jewish convert, exposes the inner workings of these clandestine groups, revealing their true nature through documents and historical accounts. The book sheds light on the means employed by Jews to maintain their existence and influence in Europe, and the tension between their practices and the dominant culture of the time. Through these insights, the book unpacks the complex relationship between Jews and Christians in Eastern Europe and highlights the challenges Jewish communities faced in navigating a hostile environment.
