Shalom Safranim,
I thought some of you might be interested in a book just published in
Israel, Kes vaKheter (Throne and Crown) by Yosef Dayan. It is
published by the Lishkat Hagazit Academy of Government (25 King George
Street, Jerusalem 94261; www.malchut-israel.org). Mr. Dayan is one
of the founders of the academy. So far as I am aware, it is the first
extended treatise since the founding of the Zionist movement arguing
for the restoration of the Hebrew monarchy. On the back cover are
these comments from Professor Hillel Weiss of Bar Ilan University (I
hope my translation is not too wretched):
"The book is a step-by-step ascent--through an excellent analysis,
acute and penetrating of the intensifying political and cultural
reality in the State of Israel in our times--to the Hebrew-Jewish
essence that is latent in the kingdom of the House of David.
"In the darkness the engulfs us, Dayan's books is like a lamp that
shines in the darkness."
