Worlds Jewish population almost reaches pre-Holocaust number

Post by jamesbond »

The world’s Jewish population has almost rebounded to pre-Holocaust numbers, according to a new report.

The Jewish People Policy Institute (JPPI) estimates there are currently 14.2 million Jewish people in the world today. That estimate approaches 16.2 million, the number of Jewish people in the world before World War II, when Nazis and their collaborators killed 6.1 million Jews.

The JPPI credits high fertility rates and natural growth in Israel for the increase.

In contrast, a report by the Pew Research Center that only includes people who self-identify as Jews says the Jewish population will not reach 16 million until 2050.
