The present age is the most critical of the twenty centuries of our era. There is a widespread feeling that history is winding up and approaching its conclusion. One of the most extraordinary happenings of the twentieth century is the return of the Jewish people to the land of its origin. That such a people should after many centuries of national homelessness return to the land of their forefathers, which during their absences had become mostly devastated, and rebuild it in the space of a few decades, is a phenomenon otherwise unknown in the annals of history. During the nineteen centuries of Jewish dispersion, Heaven seemed to remain silent. Does the present reconstitution of Jewish nationhood in the Land of Israel portend the nearness of the day when the long silence of God shall at last be broken? Taking the regathering of the Jewish people in its ancient land as his point of departure, Dr. Kac answers this and other related questions in The Death and Resurrection of Israel and his other book The Rebirth of the State of Israel. --- from book's back cover
