Item Description:

The Land of Israel has a curious way of both uniting and dividing the Jewish people. When the movements to resettle the Land arose, both religious and political divisions threatened all progress. Into the mix came Rabbi Reines, Torah scholar and pragmatic public leader, whose Mizrachi movement united the conflicting strains. Rabbi Wein presents early Zionist history in all its complexity, showing us a man who earned the respect of many - even his opponents.
