Religious Zionism can be defined as differently by different people. However, when we take off all the differences, the core of religious Zionism lies in the recognition of the greatest miracle of modern history, the creation of the State of Israel, through the eyes of traditional, Torah Judaism.
15 Writers, 15 Perspectives, 1 Common Ambition – While the number 15 will change as the Blog moves forward, the 1 common ambition will always be the same, the constant yearning of the Jewish People for the past 2000 years for the national renewal of the Jewish People, on their land, with the building of the temple in Jerusalem as a house of prayer for all nations.
Tzipiyah, in Hebrew, is usually translated as “yearning”. The word Tzipiyah comes from the word “Tzofeh”, to scout (like a “lookout man”). As the process of our redemption unravels, the writers at Tzipiyah.com will be sharing each of their personal “scouting reports” (perspectives) on different aspects of their lives as religious Zionist Jews. These reports will take different forms and different styles depending on the writer and his perspective. Some will hold a more rational mindset, others will opt to write creatively, others will explore the mystical aspects of our faith. They will all, however, be imbued by the continuation of this constant yearning.
Usually, the closer you get to something, the more you yearn for it. For example, the yearning to graduate high school is much more intense for someone who is in his last year of studies then someone who is in the beginning of his schooling. The same is true for our redemption. With the process of redemption taking a decisive step forward in 1948, and with its constant unfolding, the soul of the Jewish people is asking for the special, religious Zionist torah. Tzipiyah.com will upgrade the means of communications of this Torah to the blogging technology, thus helping to reach all the Jewish souls asking for their thirst to be quenched.
