It's always amazed me how the Jewish people have managed to survive in Europe, through all that they've be subjected to.

Truly, God watches over the believers.

Immanuel Aboab, a Jewish scholar born in Porto in mid-16th century, had written that as a child he had visited a synagogue in the third house along the street counting down from the 14th-century Our Lady of Victory church.

Wow, it's like "National Treasure."
