L. Talmon and other intellectual figures with Ben-Gurionthe implications of political theology and the presence of messianic ideas in Israeli politicsAs the first book to examine the messianism in Israeli debate since the creation of the Israeli state, it will be particularly relevant for students and scholars of Political Science, modern intellectual history, Israel studies, Judaism and messianism. |
