this paragraph:
"Jewish existence cannot
adequately be described in
nationalistic terms any more
than it can be described in
that other 19th Century no-
tion that the Jews are essen-
ially a church. I think this
inadequacy comes out most
clearly in the notion, so often
trumpeted by David Ben-
Gurion, Abba Hillel Silver
and other spokesmen for the
movement, that Zionism is
essentially the modern ver-
sion of Jewish messianism.
Precisely. The Jews are in-
deed an ethnos, and their
restoration to their ancient
soil and their sovereignty
over it is one of the great
moments in Jewish history.
But no state is the Messiah,
and no state, as a secular en-
tity, is capable of bringing
the Messiah. I do not see how
the American Jew or the Is-
raeli Jew can long hide from
the ultimate, transcendent
reality upon which Jewish
existence rests: God."
