Times were difficult for the Jewish people in Prague —the soldiers fighting against them were too strong, and the Jewish people didn't have the tools to protect themselves. Rabbi Loew knew he had to do something, so late one night, he created the Golem. Could the Golem protect the Jewish people? Rabbi Mark Kaiserman retells the classic story. For a written version of this story, see The Golem of Prague in "The Classic Tales: 4,000 Years of Jewish Lore."
