Can a nation truly be born in a single day? In 1948, after nearly 2,000 years of dispersion, the modern State of Israel was established. But almost immediately, the newborn nation faced war—without a fully organized army, with limited equipment, and surrounded by larger forces. Yet Israel survived. In this episode, Dr. Erez Soref and Sisi Soref explore the remarkable story of Israel’s rebirth through both history and Scripture. They share their own families’ journeys back to the land, examine the biblical meaning of Zion and Zionism, and discuss the return of millions of Jewish people to their ancestral homeland. They also look at the small community of Jewish followers of Yeshua present at Israel’s founding and how that community has grown in the decades since. From ancient promises to the events of 1948, this is a story of survival, return, and a question that continues to resonate today: Can a nation be born in one day?
