En jämförande diskursanalys av Yad L’Achim och Lehavas syn på interreligiösa äktenskap och förhållanden och assimilering i Israel utifrån deras webbplatser. Pro graduavhandling i religionsvetenskap Fakulteten för humaniora, psykologi och teologi, Åbo Akademi Elisabeth Diljaj, 38539 Handledare: Måns Broo Opponent: Johanna Granvik Åbo Akademi Våren 2020 1 ÅBO AKADEMI – FAKULTETEN FÖR HUMANIORA, PSYKOLOGI OCH TEOLOGI Abstrakt för avhandling pro gradu Ämne: Religionsvetenskap Författare: Elisabeth Diljaj Arbetets titel: "Life is essentially a question of values."- En jämförande diskursanalys av Yad L’Achim och Lehavas syn på interreligiösa äktenskap och förhållanden och assimilering i Israel utifrån deras webbplatser. Handledare: Måns Broo Israel är världens enda officiella judiska stat med många olika religiösa och etniska minoriteter på en liten yta. Syftet med denna avhandling har varit att göra en jämförande diskursanalys av Yad L’Achim och Lehavas, två judiska grupper i Israel, webbplatser inom temana interreligiösa äktenskap och förhållanden och assimilering. Frågeställningarna som har varit grunden för analysen är "vad för teman och diskurser tar man upp innanför ramen av assimilering och interreligiösa äktenskap och förhållanden i Israel? Hur skiljer sig dessa åt grupperna sinsemellan och vad är explicit och underförstått på basis av det grupperna skriver?" För att kunna besvara dessa frågor har en kritisk diskursanalys tillämpats. Skillnaderna och likheterna mellan grupperna fanns där men var små. Det som kännetecknar skillnaderna grupperna sinsemellan utgörs egentligen av formuleringsskillnader och olika verksamhetsområden. Likheterna har nästintill varit hundra procent identiska då både Yad L’Achim och Lehava behandlar samma diskurser i samma ljus. Nyckelord: Israel, judendomen, Yad L’Achim, Lehava, diskursanalys, kritisk diskursanalys, interreligiösa äktenskap och förhållanden.

As we see in the vision of Jacob's Ladder at thebeginning of Parashat VaYeitzi, is it a life devoted solely to Heaven, or is therea way to bridgeHeaven and Earth? There is no doubt that in contemplating Avodat Hashem,how best to serve God, the Chareidi “Torah only” approach has greatallure. To spend all day studying God’s word, through Torah learning,connecting to God, through Tefillah, and communing with God on Shabbat andHolidays, through a sweet mix of Torah, Tefillah and Zemirot can be intoxicating. This lifestyle had great appeal to me at an important crossroads in mylife. But as I continued to contemplate my path forward, I thought a lotabout my past as well. I come from generations and generations ofChassidic Rabbis. My grandfather sat at his father’s Tisch, as the son ofthe Rebbe, in Wengrow. Yet, through the hand of God, which saved my grandfather,sending him to Scotland, then England and, finally, settling in Chicago – wewere no longer Chassidic – we were Modern and Orthodox and that is how I was raised. In some cosmic way, I felt (and continue to feel) that it was God’s will that Iwas raised in the way that I was here and I wasn’t meant to transport myselfback to the way it was in Europe.

Ma nessun media occidentale lo racconta Robert Inlakesh (°) Coloni estremisti israeliani, al grido di « Morte agli Arabi », hanno tentato ad Al-Quds (Gerusalemme) di scacciare i Palestinesi dalla città, ma hanno invece provocato una sollevazione nazionale e una crisi politica per il Primo Ministro israeliano Benjamin Netanyahu Il cartello di questa suprematista israeliana dice: "Ucciderli tutti" Polizia e manifestanti israeliani si affrontano alla porta di Damasco dopo l’abbattimento delle barriere che impedivano l’accesso alla piazza principale, che è stata per una settimana teatro di scontri nella parte vecchia di Al-Quds (Gerusalemme). 25 aprile 2021 Tutto è cominciato, in modo assolutamente imprevisto, nella serata del 22, quando centinaia di militanti del gruppo di estrema destra israeliano Lehava hanno tentato di scacciare i Palestinesi e hanno preso d’assalto le loro proprietà ad Al-Quds (Gerusalemme). I Palestinesi di tutti i territori occupati e della stessa Israele sono scesi in piazza per respingere gli attacchi dei coloni e dei politici israeliani che li incoraggiavano. ٮ﮲ٮ ﮵ﺮ ﺣﺴﻮن Nir Hasson ניר חסון @nirhasson ירושלים, ה2014- שלך חזרה.
