  • Three Conquests of Canaan
    ÅA Wars in the Middle East are almost an every day part of Eero Junkkaala:of Three Canaan Conquests our lives, and undeniably the history of war in this area is very long indeed. This study examines three such wars, all of which were directed against the Land of Canaan. Two campaigns were conducted by Egyptian Pharaohs and one by the Israelites. The question considered being Eero Junkkaala whether or not these wars really took place. This study gives one methodological viewpoint to answer this ques- tion. The author studies the archaeology of all the geo- Three Conquests of Canaan graphical sites mentioned in the lists of Thutmosis III and A Comparative Study of Two Egyptian Military Campaigns and Shishak and compares them with the cities mentioned in Joshua 10-12 in the Light of Recent Archaeological Evidence the Conquest stories in the Book of Joshua. Altogether 116 sites were studied, and the com- parison between the texts and the archaeological results offered a possibility of establishing whether the cities mentioned, in the sources in question, were inhabited, and, furthermore, might have been destroyed during the time of the Pharaohs and the biblical settlement pe- riod. Despite the nature of the two written sources being so very different it was possible to make a comparative study. This study gives a fresh view on the fierce discus- sion concerning the emergence of the Israelites. It also challenges both Egyptological and biblical studies to use the written texts and the archaeological material togeth- er so that they are not so separated from each other, as is often the case.

  • The History of an Interpretation of Sixteen Drops of Wine at the Seder
    237 “Our Own Joy is Lessened and Incomplete”: The History of an Interpretation of Sixteen Drops of Wine at the Seder By: ZVI RON Explaining the custom to remove sixteen drops of wine from the cup as we recite the ten plagues and words associated with them, the Artscroll Youth Haggadah writes that “we don't want our cups to be full when we tell about other people's pain.”1 The idea that we remove some wine to show that we cannot fully rejoice when our enemies are destroyed is also found in the Artscroll Mesorah Series Haggadah: “Abarbanel, however, explains that we should remove the wine because “You should not rejoice when your enemy falls” (Mishlei 24:17).”2 This idea does not actually appear in the Abarbanel's commentary to the Haggadah, or in any of his writings. In fact, this explanation for the custom of removing sixteen drops from the cup of wine is a recent innovation. By now it is so entrenched in Haggadot that it is often the only explanation offered. A typical presentation of this idea is, “By spilling a drop of wine from the Pesach cup for each plague, we acknowledge that our own joy is lessened and incomplete, for our redemption had to come by means of the punishment of other human beings. Even though these are just punishments for evil acts, it says, “Do not rejoice at the fall of your enemy” (Proverbs 24:17).”3 In this article we will trace the development of this interpretation of this cherished Seder-night custom.

  • IWC 2019 Tranche 2
    Australia takes second place in International Wine Challenge, demonstrating versatility and verve Australian wines were awarded 67 Gold, 319 Silver and 359 Bronze medals in the International Wine Challenge, widely regarded as the world’s most rigorously judged wine competition. Demonstrating Australia’s strength in both white and red wines, the country as a whole won 35 Golds for its white wines and 32 for its reds. Twenty of the reds went to Shiraz wines and 19 of the white Golds went to Chardonnay wines. Australia’s impressive total puts it in second place in the national table, behind the competition’s top country, France. South Australia confirms place as top wine-producing region South Australia, the “historic heart of Australian wine”, has confirmed its place as Australia’s top wine-producing region after two weeks of judging at the International Wine Challenge. South Australia gained nearly half of Australia’s Gold tally – 33 – as well as 202 Silver medals and 238 Bronze medals. Within the South Australia region, it was the cooler Adelaide Hills that shone, taking ten Gold medals, with Chardonnay and Riesling dominating the white grapes, and Cabernet Sauvignon and Shiraz for red. Bird in Hand was the region’s top producer, gaining four Gold medals – two from Adelaide Hills and two from Mount Lofty, including the Syrah 2017 which scored 96/100 points. The other 96-point Shiraz in the competition was also from Adelaide Hills – Zonte's Footstep’s Hills Are Alive 2017. Adelaide Hills’ other Golds went to Penfolds, Longview Vineyard, Hahndorf Hill Winery, Australian Vintage, and Sidewood Estates.

  • Examining Israel
    PAGE 2 p Fall 2014 PRESIDENT'S MEMO Itamar Rabinovich on Israel and the Middle East PAGE 6 WHAT'S NEXT FOR ISRAEL? After summer conflict, experts ISRAEL debate the way forward PAGE 10 INSTITUTE LEADERSHIP SUMMIT 2014 MAGAZINE Building a Community of Israel Experts IN THIS ISSUE: Examining Experts discuss Israel's Israel policies, laws and regional challenges KOLDIRECTOR'SSPOTLIGHT: HAMACHON LETTER ACADEMIA Welcome to the first issue of Israel Institute Magazine! The Institute was founded in 2012 in a partnership between Ambassador Itamar Rabinovich and the Charles and Lynn Schus- terman Family Foundation in order to expand the field of Israel Studies and enhance knowl- edge of modern Israel. The Institute does not engage in political activism or advocacy. Rather, we aspire to advance excellence in scholarship, as well as to promote high quality resources for professors, students and others curious about Israel to study the country in a deep and well-informed way. We believe that our mission can best be achieved through robust support for exceptional, academically rigorous analysis on a range of topics, and the Institute partners with elite universities, think tanks and cultural institutions on a variety of programs in order to strengthen the development of a broad and multi-faceted field of study related to Israel. Israel Studies is an interdisciplinary field that draws on experts who examine the coun- try through numerous different lenses, from the social sciences and law to the humanities, cultural studies and the arts. Taken together, these experts illustrate the myriad ways that research on Israel can be relevant to the broader pool of knowledge on domestic, regional and global subjects, not only in the Middle East but around the world.
