About This Book
RESTORING THE FORTUNES OF ZION: Essays On Israel, Jerusalem and Jewish-Christian Relations on the Fiftieth Anniversary of the Six-Day War. Restoring the Fortunes of Zion tells the dramatic story of the reemergence of Israel onto the stage of modern history – from the genocidal fury of the Holocaust to its extraordinary survival in face of regional hostility and global contempt. It shows how the return of the Jewish people from two millennia of exile realizes with uncanny accuracy the visions of the biblical prophets, and explores what this signifies for the future.
