THE BIBLICAL PROMISE OF THE LAND AND ZIONISM. ON THE MANIPULATION OF THE BIBLE IN POLITICS

Wojciech Maciej Stabryła Logo ORCID

Abstract

The paper is a study of the use of the biblical motif of the Promised Land in political discourse in Zionism. The paper is divided into three parts: 1. Promise of the land in the Bible, 2. Zionist right to land, 3. Religious opposition to Zionism. Its purpose is to study one aspect of the line of argumentation used in Zionism, i.e. using a theological category in modern political discourse. Theologically-wise, this approach is incorrect as it constitutes misuse of biblical texts without considering the appropriate historical and theological context.
