Need help
If somebody could find free domain pictures of ancient Hebrew clothes and houses reconstruction, please add them to the article. This article also needs "childrenisation".

NPOV problems
I know this is a difficult thing to do, but it is important that we write with a Neutral point of view when we write content here. This is, I admit, a certain philosophy and way of writing, but it is important to do this so we can avoid edit wars and stop using Wikibooks as ground for preaching certain philosophies at the exclusion of other ideas. There is a long tradition of using NPOV guidelines at Wikipedia, and that same philosophy also holds true here on Wikibooks. Please read the above link and other related links if you have a question over what is a neutral point of view. --Rob Horning 15:52, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

Switched picture
I switched the picture of Queen Esther into Jesus as I figured that Jesus was a far more famous Hebrew. I tried to pick a picture that emphasized his Jewishness. Hopefully no one feels offence about that. I'm happy to discuss the issue if it bothers anyone.

Coverage
Good.

Accuracy
No comment.

Grammar and tone
I've done a few copy-edits to this page. I think there are still some unclear places, especially:
 * The food and drinks. Lots of ideas scattered in the paragraph. Needs some coherence.
 * The translation of Jesus and Zeus and Messiah. I was completely confused.
 * The furniture. Sounds too complicated, but then still understandable.
