Zionism : the birth and transformation of an ideal / by Viorst, Milton,author.(CARDINAL)143810;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 287-301) and index.Theodor Herzl 1860-1904 : Pathfinder -- Chaim Weizmann 1874-1952 : Matchmaker -- Vladimir Jabotinsky 1880-1940 : Insurgent -- David Ben-Guiron 1886-1973 : State-builder -- Rav Abraham Isaac Kook 1865-1935, Rabbi Zvi Yehuda Kook 1891-1982 : Revivalists -- Menachem Begin 1913-1992 : Loyal disciple -- Arriving at Netanyahu 1983-2015 : Revisionism triumphant."Milton Viorst examines the evolution of Zionism, from its roots by serving as a cultural refuge for Europe's Jews, to the cover it provides today for Israel's exercise of control over millions of Arabs in occupied territories. Beginning with the shattering of the traditional Jewish society during the Enlightenment, Viorst covers the recent history of the Jews, from the spread of Jewish Emancipation during the French Revolution Era to the rise of the exclusionary anti-Semitism that overwhelmed Europe in the late nineteenth century. Viorst examines how Zionism was born and follows its development through the lives and ideas of its dominant leaders, who all held only one tenet in common: that Jews, for the first time in two millennia, must determine their own destiny to save themselves. But, in regards to creating a Jewish state with a military that dominates the region, Viorst argues that Israel has squandered the goodwill it enjoyed at its founding, and thus the country has put its own future on very uncertain footing. With the expertise and knowledge garnered from decades of studying this contentious region, Milton Viorst deftly exposes the risks that Israel faces today."--

The story of Israel / by Gilbert, Martin,1936-2015,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.A leading historian, and Winston Churchill's official biographer, tells the complete story of Israel's birth and development as a nation. Just over 100 years ago, Theodor Herzl launched the Zionist movement. Fifty years later, after the Holocaust, the State of Israel came into being, established so that Jews anywhere in the world could have a homeland. In the years since, five wars have tested Israel's ability to survive. Influxes of emigrants enhanced the country's cultural riches yet strained its social fabric, even as Israel's Arab neighbors sought to redress their own grievances. After more than 70 years of independence, the nation's fascinating story is told by renowned historian Martin Gilbert, complete with images of important historical documents. Reissued in a smaller format.

Israel matters : why Christians must think differently about the people and the land / by McDermott, Gerald R.(Gerald Robert),author.(CARDINAL)366986;
Includes bibliographical references and index."Israel Matters addresses the perennially important issue of the relationship between Christianity and the people and land of Israel, offering a unique and compelling "third way" between typical approaches and correcting common misunderstandings along the way. This book challenges the widespread Christian assumption that since Jesus came to earth, Jews are no longer special to God as a people, and the land of Israel is no longer theologically significant. It traces the author's journey from thinking those things to discovering that the New Testament authors believed the opposite of both. It also shows that contrary to what many Christians believe, the church is not the new Israel, and both the people and the land of Israel are important to God and the future of redemption. McDermott offers an accessible but robust defense of a "New Christian Zionism" for pastors and laypeople interested in Israel and Christian-Jewish relations. His approach will also spark a conversation among theologians and biblical scholars"--Amazon.

Israel, the church, and the Middle East : a Biblical response to the current conflict / by Bock, Darrell L.,editor.(CARDINAL)778197; Glaser, Mitch,editor.;
The relationship between the church and Israel has been the source of passionate debate among Christians throughout much of church history. In recent years the traditional pro-Israel stance of evangelicals has come under fire by those who support the Palestinian cause, calling for a new perspective and more nuanced approach by Christians who believe that the land of Israel belongs to the Jewish people by virtue of God's covenants and promises. Israel, the Church, and the Middle East challenges the supersessionist drift of the modern church, showing that God retains a plan and purpose for the Jewish people while also addressing a number of the divisive issues raised by authors critical both of Israel and of those who affirm Israel's right to the land. The book explores the hermeneutics and wider effects of the conflict, such as the growing antipathy within the church toward the evangelization of the Jewish people. It provides readers with an objective and interdisciplinary treatment, which is irenic and respectful in tone.
