I found this after doing research on how early Americans viewed the future of Israel…Also, Antisemitism among Protestant & Catholic Europeans…
“”””Although Jews comprised a small part of the population of colonial America””””
Infinitesimal.
Antisemitism varied due to history. For example, Bulgaria had no antisemitism as Jews were not used as the middle men or money lenders
““Once Jews return to the Land of Israel, they will “wear away some of the asperities and peculiarities of their character and possibly in time become liberal Unitarian Christians.””
Wanting more people to become Christians is not bigotry. Just as Jews praying for Gentiles to convert to Judaism is not bigotry. Adam’s was not advocating forced conversions.
One Jew was particularly key to America:
299 verses with "jew", including those residing within words. The first four verses in the results contain 8 jews:
Gen 24:53 And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment, and gave them to Rebekah: he gave also to her brother and to her mother precious things.
Ex 3:22 But every woman shall borrow of her neighbour, and of her that sojourneth in her house, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment: and ye shall put them upon your sons, and upon your daughters; and ye shall spoil the Egyptians.
Ex 11:2 Speak now in the ears of the people, and let every man borrow of his neighbour, and every woman of her neighbour, jewels of silver, and jewels of gold.
Ex 12:35 And the children of Israel did according to the word of Moses; and they borrowed of the Egyptians jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment:
"jewels of silver [☽ or ☾], and jewels of gold [☉]"
Judaism & America’s Founding Fathers
eclipse = transcend, and as timeanddate informs:
"An Eclipse Never Comes Alone!"
(And the servant brought forth jewels of silver, and jewels of gold, and raiment, and gave them to Rebekah)
Now that was really thinking ahead, because it was Rebekah who produced the world's first Purim costume -- Esau's Sunday Best!

Interesting article. I am religious but have to admit that the history of religion involves many distinctions that are mistakenly imbued with great importance.
My mother worked in the Pentagon in WWII. A coworker told her that she was the first Catholic she knew. She was expecting horns.
A pastor told a good story about which Protestant denominations went west on horseback, waited for the stagecoach, or waited for the establishment of railroads.
Of course, Christians are trinitarians and Jews are not. Yet both believe in the Ten Commandments.
However, it seems that people will confuse accidents of history, and poorly understood differences in culture, with nationality, race, or religion.
As an economic conservative, I am disappointed with leftist believers. Their economic views are simply mistaken. Unfortunately, when members of the religious left have to choose, I think most choose socialism or LGBQT+ over faith.
