Interesting overview of Jewish history. But imo, the distinction between Jews and Canaanites is very arbitrary. Not sure if I'd agree that Israel/Palestine unequivocally belongs to one group or the other (Jews or Palestinians).
Thanks! I'm completely astounded by the amount and the depth of antisemitism coming from the Church. But I guess when you consider how big of a segment reveres Martin Luther and his attitudes toward Jews, it shouldn't come as a total surprise. It just speaks to the Biblical illiteracy that's rampant in our age.
Excellent Article. It is so very astonishing that a majority of the "church" as leapt onto this term as a justification for delegitimizing the Jewish right to the land. It is the opposite. Zionism is a confirmation of that fact.
