Hitler targeted Jews and others he deemed "undesirable" for persecution and genocide. His Nazi regime enacted racist laws that stripped Jews of citizenship and rights, and violence against Jews escalated. Hitler's "Final Solution" was the systematic extermination of Jews in concentration and death camps, where millions were killed through gas chambers, medical experiments, starvation, and disease. Though reports of the atrocities reached Allied leaders, they did not take significant action to stop the genocide until liberating the camps at the end of the war. The Holocaust resulted in the deaths of 6 million Jews and 5 million others.
A powerpoint that shows why Holocaust denial is misguided. Lists the three main arguments that revisionists use and uses evidence to refute these claims.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

How did the Holocaust develop and
what were its results?
Hitler found a target for his anger and
hatred in Jews and other “undesirables.”
Nazi persecution resulted in the deaths of
6 million Jews and 5 million other people.
6. TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas.
Roots of the Holocaust
• Racist belief that proclaimed Aryans
superior to other people
• Desire by Hitler and others to blame
someone for Germany’s problems following
World War I
Hitler found someone to blame: the Jews.
The Nazi movement trafficked in hatred and
anti-Semitism.
7. TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas.
• Jewish businesses were boycotted.
• Jews were fired from their jobs.
• Jews were barred from working in fields
such as banking, law, and medicine.
At first, the focus of persecution
was economic.

night known as
Kristallnacht,
hundreds of Jews
were killed and
Jewish businesses
and synagogues
burned.
Hitler’s secret
police carried out
vicious attacks.
10. TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas.
Political opponents and
anyone labeled
“undesirable” also were
imprisoned.
Hitler’s “final
solution to the
Jewish
question” was
genocide—
extermination
of all Jews.
Beginning in the
1930s, Jews were
forced from their
homes, put onto
trains, and taken to
concentration
camps.
11. TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas.
Some
concentration
camps were
death camps.
There, prisoners
were killed in
gas chambers or
shot, and their
bodies burned.
12. TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas.
Prisoners in other camps were forced to perform
heavy labor, often brutalized by the guards.
Some were tortured or subjected to horrible
medical experiments.
Death by starvation and disease was common.
Millions of people died in concentration camps.
13. TEKS 8C: Calculate percent composition and empirical and molecular formulas.
• A 1943 conference to discuss possible rescue plans
ended with no concrete action being taken.
• The United States and other countries blocked
fleeing Jews from immigrating.
For years, the Allies
had received reports
of Jews being killed
in Nazi camps.
Yet little was
done to stop it.

Though they
expressed concern,
American leaders
remained focused
on their war plans.
Some suggested they
bomb the rail lines
leading to the camps.
But the military
hesitated to divert
battle resources.
In 1944, Roosevelt created the War Refugee Board
in an attempt to help Jews in Eastern Europe.
Sadly, too few were saved.

When Allied soldiers liberated the camps at
war’s end, they were stunned by the horror
before them.
Americans reacted
with an outpouring
of sympathy and a
desire to help.
Many survivors
eventually found
homes in the
United States.

• The state of Israel was founded in 1948.
• Truman immediately recognized the new nation,
