Studies and Research: Zionism's Appropriation of the Jewish 'Messiah' Doctrine, Its Repercussions on Aggressive Israeli Practices

/ الأحد 05 تموز 2026 / Twelfth Issue Summary / 227

Messiah doctrine, or redeemer, is a cornerstone of Jewish thought, its features shaped by political and historical transformations, as well as the psychological imperatives imposed by the crises and defeats faced by Jewish communities.

This research examines the essential characteristics of this doctrine by analysing its religious, historical, and political backgrounds, and tracing the evolution of the meaning of the term "Messiah" in Hebrew. It also sheds light on the Zionist movement's exploitation of this doctrine to serve its colonial project and justify its aggressive practices, particularly concerning the settlement of Palestinian lands, plans to establish the alleged Temple in Jerusalem, and the recent aggression against the Gaza Strip.
