  • Six Tikunim for Israel at 60
    For Educational Use Only Six T Six Tikkunim for Israel's Sixtieth Year In celebration and commemoration of Israel’s sixtieth anniversary, we propose six Tikkunim . The idea of Tikkun positions people in partnership with God, assuming responsibility for our world. By the same token, we invite Jews in Israel and abroad to share the responsibility for the present and future State of Israel, through meaningful learning and experience of current dilemmas of the sixty- year-old/young country. Halachah offers an educational frame for the number “sixty”, when it claims that food will be considered kosher even if it has a non-kosher ingredient, when the kosher ingredients of the food are sixty times greate r than the non kosher Thinking within this . ָטֵ ל ְִִ י ingredient. This is termed: Nullified by Sixty 1 framework as well as the framework of Tikkun Olam, led us to identify six Tikkunim for Israel’s sixtieth year. We hope that these Tikkunim will serve as an invitation for contemplation and action on that which requires mending and in turn become sixty times greater than other Israeli challenges. In the following document you will find six gates for six Tikkunim . Each gate is thematically inspired by one of the books of the Mishnah: Tikkun of Time תיקו הזמ – Zeraim (1 Tikkun of Shabbat תיקו שבת – Mo’ed (2 Tikkun of Gender תיקו המגדר – Nashim (3 Tikkun of Conservation תיקו השימור - Nezikin (4 Tikkun of the Sacred Place and Space תיקו המקו הקדוש - Kodashim (5 Tikkun of Social Ethics תיקו הכשרות החברתית – Toharot (6 1 " "ָ ל אִ רִ י ֶַ רָה [ ְטֵלִ י ] ְִִ י " ( תלמוד בבלי , קודשי , חולי , פרק ז ', ד+ צ" ח א ' גמרא) 1 Each Tikkun gate includes: a verse introducing the key issue, an essential question, a Jewish Text, an Israeli song and a contemporary Israeli thought.

It is located near the southern area of the Jordan valley. The salt-rich Dead Sea is the lowest point on the earth's surface, being 400 meters below sea level. The air around the Dead Sea is unpolluted, dry, and pollen-free with low humidity, providing a naturally relaxing environment. The air in the region has a high mineral content due to the constant evaporation of the mineral rich water. 3. The Dead Sea comes in the list of the world's greatest landmarks, and is sometimes considered one of the Seven Wonders of the World. People usually miss out on this as they do not realize the importance of its unique contents. The Dead Sea has twenty-one minerals which have been found to give nourishment to the skin, stimulate the circulatory system, give a relaxed feeling, and treat disorders of the metabolism and rheumatism and associate pains. The Dead Sea mud has been used by people all over the world for beauty purposes.

  • Zionist Thought: Classical Theories and Current Dilemmas Dr
    Zionist Thought: Classical Theories and Current Dilemmas Dr. Arnold M. Eisen, JTS ScholarStream | April 21, 2021 Source 1: Theodor Herzl, The Jewish State (1896) in Hertzberg, Arthur, ed. The Zionist Idea: A Historical Analysis and Reader. Philadelphia: Jewish Publication Society, 1997, 209. Anti-Semitism is a highly complex movement, which I think I understand. I approach this movement as a Jew, yet without fear or hatred. I believe that I can see in it the elements of cruel sport, of common commercial rivalry, of inherited prejudice, of religious intolerance—but also of a supposed need for self-defense. I consider the Jewish question neither a social nor a religious one, even though it sometimes takes these and other forms. It is a national question, and to solve it we must first of all establish it as an international political problem to be discussed and settled by the civilized nations of the world in council. We are a people—one people. We have sincerely tried everywhere to merge with the national communities in which we live, seeking only to preserve the faith of our fathers. It is not permitted us. In vain are we loyal patriots, sometimes superloyal; in vain do we make the same sacrifices of life and property as our fellow citizens; in vain do we strive to enhance the fame of our native lands in the arts and sciences, or her wealth by trade and commerce. In our native lands where we have lived for centuries we are still decried as aliens, often by men whose ancestors had not yet come at a time when Jewish sighs had long been heard in the country.

  • Souvenirs of Conquest: Israeli Occupations As Tourist Events
    Int. J. Middle East Stud. 40 (2008), 647–669. Printed in the United States of America doi:10.1017/S0020743808081531 Rebecca L. Stein SOUVENIRS OF CONQUEST: ISRAELI OCCUPATIONS AS TOURIST EVENTS It is perhaps self-evident to suggest that military conquest shares something with tourism because both involve encounters with “strange” landscapes and people. Thus it may not surprise that the former sometimes borrows rhetorical strategies from the latter— strategies for rendering the strange familiar or for translating threatening images into benign ones. There have been numerous studies of this history of borrowing. Scholars have considered how scenes of battle draw tourist crowds, how soldiers’ ways of seeing can resemble those of leisure travelers, how televised wars have been visually structured as tourist events (e.g., the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq), and how the spoils of war can function as a body of souvenirs.1 These lines of inquiry expand our understanding of tourism as a field of cultural practices and help us to rethink the parameters of militarism and warfare by suggesting ways they are entangled with everyday leisure practices. This paper considers the ways this entanglement functions in the Israeli case. To be more specific, I am interested in the workings of Israeli tourist practices and discourses during two key moments of Israeli military engagement: the 1967 war and subsequent onset of the Israeli military occupation and the 1982 Israeli invasion of Lebanon. My analysis in both instances focuses on a reading of popular Israeli Hebrew and English- language print media,2 with attention to the ways that Israeli newspapers represented the incursion, occupation, and/or conquest to Israeli publics in the immediate aftermath of the wartime victory (1967) and invasion (1982).

Thèse dirigée par Monsieur KOUTS Gideon Soutenue le 3 décembre 2014 Jury : Mme Françoise Saquer-Sabin M. Ouzi Elyada M. Ephraïm Riveline M. Gideon Kouts 1 Titre de la thèse : Etude de la réception de la littérature hébraïque en France : Nature et enjeux (culturels, économiques et politiques) des œuvres de fiction traduites en français depuis l’an 2000. Résumé : Les traductions en français de la littérature israélienne ont nettement augmenté au cours des dernières décennies. Ce phénomène s'inscrit dans le cadre général de l'augmentation des échanges littéraires internationaux mais tient également à des raisons politiques, commerciales ou culturelles. Notre étude recense les œuvres de fiction en prose traduites en français entre 2000 et 2012 et établit des statistiques sur leur nombre, les auteurs les plus traduits, les maisons d’édition et les traducteurs impliqués dans cette importation. Elle précise le rôle des principaux acteurs de cette exportation/ importation : institutions gouvernementales israéliennes et françaises, agents littéraires, éditeurs et traducteurs et en analyse les enjeux politiques, économiques et culturels. Notre étude tente enfin de cerner la nature de la réception de ces œuvres dans les médias et le grand public. Nos conclusions s’appuient d’une part sur un large corpus d’œuvres littéraires israéliennes et d’articles de presse et d’autre part sur des entretiens ou réponses écrites d’écrivains, agents littéraires, éditeurs, traducteurs, directeurs de bibliothèques et lecteurs.
