Newton History Series: Jews and Puritans in Early America

Join us for a Newton History Series program cosponsored by Historic Newton. Author Michael Hoberman will explore the complex and often contradictory meanings that Puritans in colonial New England attached to Judaism and the fraught attitudes that they bore toward the Jews as a people. Learn about the lives of prominent Jews in the Boston area and how the Puritans interacted with them.
