  • Second Memorandum Historical Survey of the Jewish Population in Palestine from the Fall of the Jewish State to the Beginning of Zionist Pioneering
    SECOND MEMORANDUM HISTORICAL SURVEY OF THE JEWISH POPULATION IN PALESTINE FROM THE FALL OF THE JEWISH STATE TO THE BEGINNING OF ZIONIST PIONEERING. Chapter I: Under Roman and Byzantine Rule. Chapter II: Under Arab Rule. Chapter III: The Crusaders. Chapter IV: The Mamluk Period. Chapter V: Under Turkish Rule. CHAPTER I UNDER THE ROMAN AND BYZANTINE RULE. The vivid rhetoric of Josephus Flavius' Jewish Wars and the absence of sources accessible to Western scholars for the later periods, have combined to create an impression in the minds of many people that the fatal issue of the Roman-Jewish war of 66-70 C.E. did not only result in the destruction of the Temple and of the city of Jerusalem, but brought Jewish life in Palestine to a complete standstill by obliterating what remained of the nation. However, even a cursory glance at the Jewish Wars will show that the struggle cannot have been as destructive as is popularly supposed. As shown on map A, Josephus specifically names as destroyed, apart from Jerusalem, four towns out of nearly forty, three districts (toparchies) out of eleven, and five villages. Even in these cases the destruction cannot have been very thorough. Lydda and Jaffa were burnt down by Cestius (Wars II,18,10 and 19,1), yet Jaffa had to be destroyed again (Wars III.9,3), while Lydda apparently continued to exist and surrendered quietly to Vespasian (ib. IV,18,1). The case of Bethannabris and the other villages in the Jordan Valley is even more instructive; burnt down by Placidus (Wars IV.7,5) they continued to flourish in the Talmudic period and remained Jewish strongholds down to the last days of Byzantine power in Palestine, i.e.

  • Reports of the Jewish Agency Executives Submitted to the Twenty-Second Zionist Congress at Basle, Excerpts Jewish Agency 1946
    REPORTS OF THE JEWISH AGENCY EXECUTIVES SUBMITTED TO THE TWENTY-SECOND ZIONIST CONGRESS AT BASLE, EXCERPTS JEWISH AGENCY 1946 POLITICAL DEPARTMENT INTRODUCTION The period which has elapsed since the last Zionist Congress has been the most tragic in Jewish history. It has also been the most disastrous in the annals of modern Zionism. The last Congress met under the shadow of the Palestine White Paper of May, 1939. It broke up on the eve of the Second World War. Ominous anticipations filled the hearts of the delegates as they sped home, yet none could have foreseen the ghastly catastrophe that was to follow. In the course of a few years the bulk of European Jewry which, for fifteen centuries had been the principal center of Jewish life, was wiped out of existence. Entire communities with their ancient traditions, their synagogues, schools, colleges, libraries and communal institutions were destroyed overnight as by a tornado. A Satanic design to eradicate Jewish life for ever from the face of Europe led to the wholesale extermination of Jewish children. Of an estimated total of several million Jewish children on the continent of Europe before the War, only some tens of thousands are alive today. In this colossal tragedy, the Palestine white Paper played a significant part. It is not suggested that all the 6,000,000 Jews who were killed in Europe during the war could have been saved if there had been no White Paper, but there can be no doubt that many thousands of those who perished in the gas chambers of Poland would be alive today if immigration to Palestine had been regulated, as formerly, by the principle of the country’s absorptive capacity and had not been subjected to the arbitrary numerical restrictions imposed under the White Paper.

  • Reflections on Al-Nakba
    REFLECTIONS ON AL-NAKBA To most Palestinians, 1948, the year of al-Nakba, is theformative year of their lves. This is true irrespective of age, background, or occupation, or whether the person is a refugee or not, or lives in Palestine or the diaspora. On thisfiftieth anniversary of al-Nakba, JPS asked a number of Palestinians of different generations and walks of life to write short pieces on what this event has meant to them. In JPS's letters of invitation, the "guidelines" suggested were to avoid political and historical analysis in favor ofpersonal reflections. The following are the results. MAMDOUH NOFAL Mamdouh Nofal was born in Qalqilya, Palestine, in 1944. He has held a succession of high military posts in the Palestinian movement. In Tunis as of 1988, he was a member of the Higher Coordinating Committee for the intifada. He participated in the Madrid Conference in 1991, served on the Higher Steering Committee for Palestinian Negotiations, and is a member of the PLO Central Committee. Permitted by Israel to return to Palestine in March 1996, he lives in Ramallah. He is the author of two books (in Arabic) on the peace process. The closest I can come to explaining what 1948 means to me, and how it affected the path I took in life and the choices I made, is to tell about grow- ing up in Qalqilya, on the frontline with Israel. When the dust of 1948 settled, Qalqilya itself had not been occupied, fall- ing in what came to be called the West Bank. But it had lost more than 90 percent of its agricultural lands, its main source of livelihood, which were now farmed by the Jewish colonies across the railroad tracks that had once linked Turkey, Syria, Palestine, and Egypt and which now formed the border with the newly created State of Israel.

This evening, we’ll enjoy a welcome dinner at a local restaurant in Tel Aviv. Overnight, Carlton Hotel, Tel Aviv Tel Aviv MONDAY MARCH 7 • NORTHERN ISRAEL After a delicious Israeli breakfast, we will check out of the hotel and drive north along the Western Coast. Along the way, we will stop in Caesarea, once the Roman capital of the region. We will see the excavations of the Crusader’s city, the aqueduct and the amphitheatre that has been restored as a concert venue. We’ll then continue to Zichron Ya’acov, a town rich with Zionist history. We will take a stroll through the town’s cobblestone streets and learn about the many challenges that Zichron Ya'acov’s settlers faced in their attempts to establish the Roman aqueduct in Caesarea town and how Baron Edmond de Rothschild’s vision for the growth of community and his commercial enterprise helped to establish the town. Not only is Zichron Ya’acov a town rich in history, but it’s also known as the “Napa Valley” of Israel as it is home to several world famous wineries. We will enjoy lunch at the Tishbi Winery’s restaurant overlooking part of the Tishbi Estate vineyards. We’ll dine on local cuisine including fresh vegetables, homemade bread and fresh cheeses from the nearby Ya’akob and Meiri Dairy farms, and taste some of the spectacular wines produced here.

  • Viii. Palestine
    372 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK VIII. PALESTINE GENERAL REVIEW By LOTTA LEVENSOHN1 It was inevitable that, once the war was over, the political issue should overshadow everything else in Palestine. The White Paper promulgated by the British Mandatory Power in May 1939 had been flatly rejected as soon as its contents were known. No other course was possible when an attempt was made to impose upon the Jewish National Home a policy designed to crystallize it with a final quota of 75,000 immigrants and to confine it within the rigid territorial barriers of five per cent of the area of Palestine as far as future settlement was concerned. Not only that, but it was proposed in ten years' time to set up a Palestine State where the Jews would be a permanent minority,—a minority that would grow proportionately smaller from year to year because the Arab birthrate is double that of the Jews and more. But, when war broke out, the struggle was left in abeyance and the Yishuv became one of His Majesty's Government's most loyal allies. Now that struggle has been resumed with all the greater intensity in view of the plight of the sur- vivors of Nazism and Fascism in the liberated areas of Europe. And now annulment of the White Paper is not enough. Since the Mandatory Administration's policy eventuated in the White Paper after twenty-six years, the time has come for a definitive status wherein the National Home can develop and flourish according to its own poten- tialities, without artificial restrictions.

    THE ZIONIST BIBLE BibleWorld Series Editors: Philip R. Davies and James G.

It explores our ever- increasing knowledge and understanding of the social world that produced the biblical texts, but also analyses aspects of the Bible’s role in the history of our civi- lization and the many perspectives – not just religious and theological, but also cultural, political and aesthetic – which drive modern biblical scholarship.
