God told Abraham, “Through your offspring all peoples on earth will be blessed.” Let’s look at just a few statistics that show how God is still fulfilling this promise in the world today.
Jews occupy only about one quarter of one percent of the world’s population, yet out of that tiny part of humanity comes an enormous global contributions.
- About 8% of the board seats of corporations in America.
- 23% of Nobel prize winners have been Jewish.
- 54% of world champion chess players have been Jewish.
- 35% of Pulitzer prize winners for drama have been Jewish.
- 36% of Academy Award winners for best screen play have been Jewish.
- 53% of Academy Award winners for best song have been Jewish.
- 30% of the best “Thinkers of the 20th Century” have been Jewish.
- 37% of the world’s most famous psychologists have been Jewish.
Of course the greatest and ultimate blessing of the Jewish people has come from Jesus Christ, the Jewish Messiah, God’s Son, the Way, the Truth, and the Life.
