How did one of the greatest Jewish thinkers of the 20th century
grapple with the founding of Israel and the Israeli-Palestinian
conflict-one of the most significant political conflicts of his
time? Samuel Hayim Brody traces the development of Martin Buber's
thinking and its implications for the Jewish religion, for the
problems posed by Zionism, and for the Zionist-Arab conflict.
Beginning in turbulent Weimar Germany, Brody shows how Buber's
debates about Biblical meanings had concrete political consequences
for anarchists, socialists, Zionists, Nazis, British, and
Palestinians alike. Brody further reveals how Buber's passionate
commitment to the rule of God absent an intermediary came into
conflict in the face of a Zionist movement in danger of repeating
ancient mistakes. Brody argues that Buber's support for Israel
stemmed from a radically rich and complex understanding of the
nature of the Jewish mission on earth that arose from an anarchist
reading of the Bible.
