Excellent in-depth look at the Babi Yar massacre and the persecution of the Jewish people in general over the centuries. And you make such a key point about God's promises being about His character and not our performance. Too many Christians fail to grasp this important truth. WWII and the Holocaust have long been subject of study for me, and I greatly appreciate the excellent job you do on this subject today.
The N a z i s did accomplish the goal to replicate the Roman Empire in one way, by gaining control over masses of people by the threat of death. Not unlike what the people in Jesus' time on earth faced. Jesus' death and Resurrection were eyewitnessed by thousands and yet, many chose to continue to deny it to not rankle the Roman gov't or the Pharisees. Jesus' Resurrection was a direct demonstration that He defeated Death to live an eternal life - and yet, the lie generated by Pharisee religious leaders that Disciples had stolen His body from the tomb has gone on through millenia misleading people.
