No, Napoleon Hill was not Jewish. He was born on October 26, 1883, in a small town in Virginia, and his background does not indicate Jewish heritage. Hill is best known for his self-help books, particularly "Think and Grow Rich," which focuses on personal development and success principles.

Why did Napoleon Bonaparte kill Jews?

Napoleon was actually quite famous for not killing Jews. There were actually numerous debates in Rabbinic Circles as to who was the greater curse to Jews: Emperor Napoleon or Czar Alexander II of Russia. Czar Alexander II was hated by some because he created numerous pogroms and instituted Anti-Semitic policies. Napoleon was hated by some because he made it perfectly acceptable to be Jewish and therefore created conditions under which Jews would naturally assimilate and lose their unique religion and tradition. However, most Jews, especially Liberal or Secular Jews, hold Napoleon in high esteem for his emancipation of the Jewish community and his belief that Judaism was "just a religion" and that Jews were just as human as anyone else (as opposed to demonic, which was the common view).

Why did Napoleon call Jewish leaders in?

Napoleon wanted to understand what Jews and Judaism were in order to find out whether they could be integrated into French Society or not. He came to the conclusion (which was radical at the time) that Judaism was a religion in much the same way that Catholicism or Protestantism were religions and would not serve as an impediment to being French citizens. The prevailing view during that period was the Jews were somehow physically or spiritually distinct from Christian people and would be incapable of being "true" members of a non-Jewish society.
