Episode description
In our first episode of the series "Heritage Hunters" we discuss the history of my ancestors and the illogical persecution of the Jewish community by Christian anti-Semites in Latin America and Europe.
"...I'm like a wandering Jew looking for your love." This phrase is part of a Mexican folk song performed by Dueto America.
Recently, La Ettnia, a Colombian Rap group, created a less anti-Semitic song also called Wandering Jew.
"I have seen you in many moments
There's really no time for regrets
Only one is your will
Running to the beat of the wandering Jew"
There is even a Catholic prayer for the wandering Jew:
"Oh poor Wandering Jew
that by denying water to Our Lord
you were condemned to wander the earth
for the whole eternity!
Wandering Jew who by offending Our Lord
you will travel forever around the world."
Who was the wandering Jew?
“The Wandering Jew is a Christian myth, a legend that recounts that during the arduous road to crucifixion with his cross on his back, under the whipping of the Roman soldiers, amid the jeers of the people, Jesus feels thirsty and stops before a trough. An old Jew refuses him water, gives him a push and tells him to keep going. "I will continue", Jesus replies, "but you will wait until I return", and he continues his march towards Golgotha. Jesus condemned him to wander the earth until his second coming, until the Parousia."
