Juives by Robert Garnier

"Juives" is a tragic play set in ancient Babylon that explores themes of power, faith, and suffering. The narrative centers around the plight of the Jewish people under the tyrannical rule of Nebuchadnezzar, who has destroyed Jerusalem and taken the Jews captive. The play focuses on the characters of Zedekiah, the last king of Judah, who is tortured and blinded, and his children, who are also victims of Nebuchadnezzar's cruelty. Through poetic dialogue and dramatic interactions, the play delves into the struggles of the Jewish captives as they maintain their faith and identity in the face of despair and oppression, ultimately providing a commentary on the resilience of the human spirit.
