00:00The term wandering Jew has anti-Semitic roots. The idea first appears in a 13th-century Christian
00:05text about a Jew who after telling Jesus to go faster on his way to his crucifixion,
00:09is told, I am going, but thou shalt tarry till I come again. The story's details evolved over
00:14years of repeated tellings, although its theme never wavered, and it was frequently invoked as
00:18a rallying cry to justify anti-Jewish violence, a trend that reached its zenith in 1940 with the
00:24German propaganda film, The Eternal Jew. Conceptually, the idea supposedly represents
00:28all Jewish people as an accursed nation who originate in Jerusalem, rejected Jesus, and
00:33whose survival no one seemingly can explain. Although, like most things, Jews have since
00:37embraced the term, and use it as a way to describe the miracle of Jewish survival.
