Sunday 10:30am
Adult Study: Religious Zionism: From Moderate to Messianic
The pioneers who founded the State of Israel were primarily secular. Yet early on, religious thinkers began to incorporate spiritual Jewish teachings into the Zionist movement. After the Six Day War in 1967, the particular blend of nationalism, mysticism and messianism became the dominant ideology of Israel’s religious right.
Yet there is also a liberal expression of religious Zionism, championed by our Reform movement. Through texts, music and video presentations, this course will explore the teachings and activities of religious Zionism, on the right and the left, both in Israel and in the Diaspora.
Lead by Solel’s Rabbi Emeritus Larry Englander. For dates and more information watch this space and check out our other Adult Education offerings.
