Overview #

This booklet powerfully illustrates how Zionism is not merely a political movement—it is an intrinsic part of Jewish identity, tradition, and culture. Through clear examples from prayers, holidays, rituals, and language, it shows how the connection to the Land of Israel is woven into the daily and spiritual life of Jews around the world. From saying “Next year in Jerusalem” to the symbolism of the menorah and the words of Israel’s national anthem, Zionism reflects a people’s ancient longing to return to their ancestral homeland and live freely. A vital resource for understanding why Zionism is deeply personal, not just political.
