Descrição: An internationally renowned scholar and theologian, Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks (1948-2020), longstanding Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth (1991-2013), suggested a direct discussion of the State of Israel. By way of exploring the way he viewed the modern State of Israel, this article discusses Rabbi Sacks' overall communitarian, covenant based ideas before focusing on three categories: national narrative, the invigoration of civil society, and the place of religion. His most distinct criticism relates to the interrelationship between religion, the political system, and the state, illustrated inter alia by his insistence that 'Judaism must be depoliticised and put back where it belongs, in civil society, far removed from all structures of power'.
