Though anti-Semitism has been on the wane in recent years in America, a 2011 poll by the anti-Defamation League found that there are still 15% of the public who are confirmed anti-Semites. The bigotry still appears in subtle ways. In the same poll it was found that 3 in 10 Americans think American Jews are more loyal to Israel than to the U.S. This lesson makes clear that God is not about to give up on the Jews. They had the prophets and Jesus is descended from them. So much of Western society (including our legal-system-based-morality related to the Ten Commandments) is rooted in Judaism.
