(Harbinger’s Daily)—A dramatic surge in anti-Semitism has gripped U.S. college campuses, with Hillel International, an organization dedicated to supporting Jewish students, reporting that “anti-Semitic incidents on campus reached their highest-ever level during the 2024-2025 school year.” The organization documented 2,334 incidents, a staggering 10-fold increase compared to the 2022-2023 academic year.
This escalation also coincides with heightened tensions following the outbreak of war between Israel and the terrorist group Hamas on October 7, 2023. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) further underscored the crisis, noting over 10,000 anti-Semitic incidents across the U.S. within a year of the attack.
On Thursday, during a private event at Family Research Council that focused on the topic of anti-Semitic awareness, FRC President Tony Perkins addressed the alarming rise in anti-Semitism, noting its prevalence not only from expected sources like the political Left but also from unexpected quarters, including some on the Right. “[F]rom an evangelical perspective,” Perkins stated, “Scripture warns against this. And that’s where I think part of our problem is.” He expressed cautious optimism about younger generations, particularly Gen Z, observing “a return to the … Bible.” However, he voiced concern that not all teachings align with biblical accuracy, stating, “Not everyone is teaching the Bible the way they should.”
“[O]ur mission,” he continued, “is to get more evangelicals in the word of God, to see the thread of God’s promise to Israel, the Jewish people, from start to finish.” To achieve this, he urged Christians to embrace two core truths: “First, Israel has a God given right to exist in peace in the land that God promised to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob. Second, support for Israel does not require uncritical agreement with every policy of its government.” He clarified that constructive criticism of Israel’s policies is acceptable, provided it is “done so as a friend and not an adversary.”
