Do Not Provoke Providence: Orthodoxy in the Grip of Nationalism
deals with the whole complex of relations between the Land of
Israel, the Jewish Torah, and the People of Israel from the
Pre-Zionist Period until the establishment of the State of Israel.
The book examines the dynamics of those relations through the
modernization of Jewish society, and the problem of Jewish Identity
vis-a-vis modernity. The discussion follows historical events in
both philosophy and everyday life. It explores the anti-Zionist
sphere and also discusses the attitudes toward the conflict of
religion and nationalism in the world of Religious Zionism. The
dispute between advocates of a religious concept of the community
and proponents of a secular nation revolved primarily around
perceptions of the ideal relationship between the religious and
national entities. One group sought to make religion a tool of the
nation; the other sought to make the nation a tool of religion.
