| What the rabbis said about Zionism |
|
|
It
would be out of the question to publish all the utterances of
Gedolei Yisroel [Torah authorities] during the last century, the
period of the emergence of Zionism on the Jewish horizon, because
all the Gedolei Yisroel sternly opposed the movement aimed at
undermining the Jewish religion and the Jewish essence
- [The Torah] forbids us to strive for the reunion or possession
of the land by any but spiritual means
Rabbi S. R. Hirsch
- Not via our desire did we leave the land of Israel, and
not via our power will we come back to the land of Israel.
Rabbi S.D. Schneerson
- [Zionists] want a state in order to make Jews into heretics.
Rabbi C. Soloveichik
- The Zionists have attacked the center point of Judaism.
Rabbi V. Soloveichik
The root of Zionism is
heresy and its branches can hardly be otherwise.
