- However, a majority of the Jews in Antiquity were most likely descendants of convertites in the cities of the Hellenistic-Roman world, especially in Alexandria and Asia Minor, and were only affected by the diaspora in its spiritual sense, as the sense of loss and homelessness which became a cornerstone of the Jewish creed, much supported by persecutions in various parts of the world. The policy of conversion, which spread the Jewish religion throughout the Hellenistic civilization, seems to have ended with the wars against the Romans and the following reconstruction of Jewish values for the post-Temple era. ...

117. Article: Religious conversion
- en.wikipedia.org
- 4 Differences between Jewish and Christian views.
- Jewish law has strict guidelines for accepting new converts to Judaism (a process called "giur"). According to Jewish law, which is still followed as normative by Orthodox Judaism and most of Conservative Judaism, potential converts must want to convert to Judaism for its own sake, and for no ulterior motives. A male convert needs to undergo a ritual circumcision, and there has to be a commitment to observe the 613 commandments and Jewish law. A convert must accept Jewish principles of faith, and reject the previous theology that he or she had prior to the conversion. Ritual immersion in a small pool of water known as a mikvah is required , and the convert takes a new Jewish name and is considered to be a son or daughter (in spirit) of the biblical patriarch Abraham, and a male is called up in that way to the Torah. ...
- This issue is a lightening rod in modern day Israel as many immigrants from the former Soviet Union are technically not Jewish. ...
- The most famous Jewish King, King David, was descended from the convert Ruth (who, according to the Talmud and Midrash, was a Moabite princess). ...
- Some Jewish people are also descended from converts to Judaism outside the Mediterranean world. ...
- Differences between Jewish and Christian views .
- Judaism does not characterize itself as a religion (although one can speak of the Jewish religion and religious Jews). ... One crucial sign of this is that one need not believe, or even do, anything to be Jewish; the historic definition of 'Jewishness' requires only that one be born of a Jewish mother, or that one convert to Judaism in accord with Jewish law. (Today, Reform and Reconstructionist Jews also include those born of Jewish fathers and gentile mothers if the children are raised as Jews. ...
- To Jews, Jewish peoplehood is closely tied to their relationship with God, and thus has a strong theological component. ... Although many non-Jews have taken this as a sign of arrogance or exclusivity, Jewish scholars and theologians have emphasized that a special relationship between Jews and God does not in any way preclude other nations having their own relationship with God. ...
- Christianity, on the other hand, is characterized by its claim to universality, which marks a break with Jewish identity. ...

119. Article: Philo-Semitism
- www.wikipedia.org
- Philo-Semitism (sometimes Semitism) is an interest in or respect for the Jewish people, and the historical significance of Jewish culture. It is an important phenomenon in the modern world, represented among other things in an unparalleled interest in Jewish culture and history as well as increasing university enrolment by non-Jews in courses relating to Judaism (including Judaism, Hebrew and Yiddish). While earlier some felt compelled to hide their Jewish ancestry for fear of discrimination, today many emphasize even distant Jewish heritage with pride. ...
- This viewpoint has been expressed by the leading liberal Jewish publication The Forward (Editorial, 11/10/00): There are still anti-Semites in the world. ...
- In this case, a Jewish person does not think of his non-Jewish friends as automatically "philo-semitic"--ethnicity having little or nothing to do with friendship. ...
- The rise of philo-Semitism has also prompted some to reconsider Jewish history. While the significance of anti-Semitism must be acknowledged, they claim, it would be wrong to reduce the history of the Jewish people to one of suffering. ...

121. Article: Binational solution
- en.wikipedia.org
- Proponents of a binational solution to the conflict advocate a common state in historic Palestine shared between Jewish and Arab populations. All of the occupied territories in the West Bank and Gaza would be annexed to Israel, with their Palestinian Arab inhabitants given citizenship and an equal status to the Jewish and Arab citizens of present-day Israel. ...
- Binational proposals for a common Jewish-Arab state in Palestine have existed since at least the 1920s. In 1925, the journalist Robert Weltsch established Brit Shalom (Covenant of Peace) to promote Jewish-Arab understanding in Palestine. ... The general concept of binationalism was to be adopted by other minority Zionist groups, like Hashomer Hatzair and Mapam, Kedmah Mizracha, the Ichud and the League for Jewish-Arab Rapprochement. ...
- Brit Shalom were not defeatists who were willing to make any concession for the achievement of peace, they simply realized that the Arabs were justified in fearing a Zionism which spoke in terms of a Jewish majority and a Jewish state. ... What was vital was a recognition that both nations (the Arab and the Jewish) were in Palestine as of right. ...
- One of the most prominent and forceful early advocates of binationalism was Professor Martin Buber, a renowned scholar in the field of Jewish tradition and literature. ...
- Official Zionist policy advocated a "Jewish state" - not precluding democracy or civil rights for resident Arabs, but still ensuring that a future state of Israel would be ruled by Jews for Jews. ...
- Some aspects of the binational ideal - such as equal political rights for the remaining Arabs - were granted in principle, but this was limited by the Israeli leadership's determination that the country would have a Jewish majority and political leadership. Successive Israeli governments have pursued a policy of encouraging Jewish immigration to Israel, known as aliyah (literally "ascent" in Hebrew), which served to preserve the Jewish majority in the country. ...
- Should the occupied territories be annexed to Israel? In which case, what would be done with the Palestinians? Should they be given citizenship, although that would significantly dilute Israel's Jewish majority? Could they be expelled en masse, although that would come at a terrible cost to Israel's reputation? Should the territories be returned to Arab rule? In which case, how would Israel's security be guaranteed? In the event, the Israel government fudged the question by implementing the controversial policy of Jewish settlements in the territories, establishing "facts on the ground" while keeping open the question of the Palestinians' long-term fate. ...
- This would effectively have ended Israel's Jewish majority and, by secularising the state, would have weaken its exclusive Jewish character. ...
- In any case, it will always be a Jewish state with a large Arab minority. ...
- In 1980, Hebrew University professors Dov Friedlander and Calvin Goldscheider published a highly influential study entitled "The Population of Israel," which concluded that - even allowing for a big increase in Jewish immigration - the high birth rate among Arabs would erode the Jewish majority within a few decades. ... By that time, the Jewish population could be only 45% of the total. Friedlander and Goldscheider warned that maintaining Israeli rule in the occupied territories would ultimately endanger the Jewish majority in Israel-Palestine. Ariel Sharon, then Agriculture Minister in Begin's government, rejected this conclusion; he claimed that Jews would make up 64% of the population in Israel-Palestine by the year 2000 if Jewish immigration remained at the rate of about 30,000 a year, although he did not cite any sources for this estimate. ...
