Summer 5756 / 1996, no. 1From the Editors:In the BeginningBy Ofir Haivry Essays:The End of Zionism?By Yoram Hazony The ideology that built the State of Israel has given way to a Post-Zionism that sanctifies Jewish disempowerment. The Uses and Advantages of Pain By Joshua Weinstein Like the human body, the body politic depends for its survival on its sense of pain--that is, its capacity to identify danger. Act and Comprehend By Ofir Haivry Both Judaism and Zionism were predicated on the idea that human fulfillment can only come of correct action. Today’s confusion is the result of the exaltation of principle over deed. On the Commandment to Question By Mordechai Gafni The quest for a common spiritual language for Israeli society requires recognizing that questioning God is not a sign of antagonism towards religion, but the peak of Jewish spirituality. |
