The Genesis of Nationhood

836 Views     0 Ratings

How does the Jewish concept of nationhood differ from its secular definition?

Benjamin Miller presents his paper on the definition of nationhood in Torah to the Sinai Scholars symposium. He compares the more secular, Zionist definition to the description given in traditional Jewish sources. He analyzes the ancient Hebrew term used in the Torah and demonstrates the uniqueness of the divine covenant that binds the Jewish nation together.
