6. | Description | Abstract | You might think that Zionism was initially embraced by Jews worldwide. But this was not so. The early Zionists such as Theodor Herzl constituted a tiny minority. In The Jewish State (1896), Herzl argued that Jews will never be safe in the lands where they live. The solution to the problem of Jew-hatred is for the Jewish people to have their own country. The vast majority of Jews, however, remained indifferent to this plea. Strictly Orthodox Jews viewed Zionism as a pernicious heresy. According to traditional Judaism, they insisted, Jews must wait for the Messiah to arrive to lead the Jewish people to their ancient homeland. Throughout the world, Orthodox leaders denounced the Zionists and branded Zionism a heresy. |
