Snoek is a historical account written in the early 21st century. This work examines the involvement and responses of Dutch churches regarding the Jewish community during the Nazi occupation in World War II. The book primarily details two main themes: the protests against antisemitic measures and the efforts made to assist Jewish people who were hiding from persecution. The opening of the book sets the stage for an exploration of the historical backdrop and the complex relationship between the Dutch churches and the Jewish community prior to and during the war. It introduces the context of the 1930s, highlighting the prevailing attitudes towards Jews, the various church denominations, and the significant events leading to the Nazi occupation. The author reflects on the silence of the churches in the early years of the Holocaust, before detailing the formation of a collaborative effort among the churches to respond to the unfolding crisis. The narrative promises to delve into significant protests and acts of assistance facilitated by the church congregations, establishing the moral and ethical implications of their actions during such a turbulent period.
