Zealots throughout the Epoches. Fundamentalism, religious Zionism and Modern Judaism
Öffentlicher Vortrag von Avraham Burg (Jerusalem) im Rahmen der Sommeruniversität 2024 (auf Englisch) The history and the myth of Masada stands for the resistance of Jewish Zealots and radical militants against Roman occupation and Jewish assimilation – and for its selfdestructive consequences. Nostalgia today is not what it used to be. Its becoming a political force. So why so many around the world want back one or another Version of catastrophic hybris?
Muslims are longing to the Caliphate, Russians to the Tzar’s empire, Trump to some American Greatness again and Jews to rebuild the long destroyed Temple? What in the future pushes us back to the past? Why for many traditionalism replaces the modern values.
Avraham Burg takes us on a disturbing journey from the Zealots of Masada to the nationalist-religious Zealots of today.
