From the Preface for Ben Zion Levinger’s Lecture Series
“The Land of Israel was the birthplace of the Jewish people. Here their spiritual, religious and political identity was shaped. Here they first attained to statehood, created cultural values of national and universal significance and gave to the world the eternal Book of Books.”
“The preamble to Israel’s Declaration of Independence opens with the Land, the venue where the Jewish people’s identity first took shape, and it closes with the venerable Book widely celebrated as the Jewish people’s gift to the world. The moment modern Israel came into focus as a state, it instantly and instinctively registered the Land and the Bible as the two central axes of Jewish identity. Though the Declaration did not say it in so many words, a cursory review of the Bible makes the point even sharper—
that the Book is about the Land.”
