Summary

End of Days offers a profound meditation on Jewish morality amidst Israeli Jewish power. Written by Mikhael Manekin, an Orthodox Israeli Jew and former IDF combat officer, it challenges the prevailing narratives of secular and religious Zionism that sanctify power and state sovereignty. Drawing from an extensive range of Jewish sources—from the Bible and medieval ethics to rabbinic law and contemporary Israeli thought—the book advocates for re-examining Israel's occupation and the suppression of Palestinian rights through the lens of Jewish religious ethics.

This book is suited for readers interested in Religion & Spirituality, Jewish ethics, Israeli-Palestinian relations, and those seeking a critical perspective on power and morality within Judaism and Israeli society.

End of Days is an Israeli Orthodox Jew's attempt to provide a Jewish faith-based alternative to ethnic superiority in Israel, and a theological political framework for those wishing to promote equality in Israel and Palestine.

Description

End of Days is both a meditation on Jewish morality in the age of Israeli Jewish power, and a cri du coeur by an Orthodox Israeli Jew, a former combat officer in the IDF. The author urges Israelis to look into the Jewish religious ethical tradition for an alternative to the secular and religious Zionism that sanctifies power, statehood, and sovereignty.

Appealing to a wealth of Jewish sources from the Bible to the present, including medieval Jewish ethical literature, rabbinic sources, Jewish law, and contemporary Israeli thought, the book presents an argument against Israel's occupation of the Palestinians and the suppression of their rights, viewed from the perspective of a modern Israeli religious Jew.
