If you think that somehow you connect to Israel, it is not only a land but a people, too. Our Jewish history and our roots to the Land of Israel is more than 35 centuries long. Our royalty's reign have been the only periods during which the people living in this Land have been independent. There have been 3 periods.
1. THE BIBLICAL PERIOD: Beginning to Babylonian Exile
This started in the latter part of this period from about the 12th century BCE until 586 BCE. Mostly, it's the period of the 1st Temple, 1100 BCE to 586 BCE=514 years.
2. THE PERIOD OF THE SECOND TEMPLE: Babylonian return to Romans
This lasted from 516 BCE to 70 CE; Return from Babylonia =586 years.
3. ISRAEL'S THIRD INDEPENDENCE: After WWII, Holocaust
This started with Israel's birthday of May 14, 1948 when it was recognized as a state, the only Jewish state in the world.
IN-BETWEEN PERIODS
1. ISRAEL A PROVINCE TO FOREIGN EMPIRES
The times in-between find the land occupied and people being ruled by foreign conquerors:
Assyrians (124 years), Babylonians (70 years), Persians(24 years), Greeks (230 years), Romans (173 years) , Byzantines (254 years) , Arabs (7th century for c,612 years) , Mamluks (266 years), Ottomans (400 years), British (30 years).
2. ISRAEL AS AN INDEPENDENT KINGDOM
The Crusaders occupied and used the land for themselves but were only a small foreign caste and the land never became a nation.
JEWS:
HELD THE LAND FOR 35 CENTURIES.
ISRAEL WAS CORE OF THEIR NATIONAL LIFE.
ISRAEL WAS CENTER OF THEIR ASPIRATIONS AND RELIGION
JEWS LIVED ON THE LAND CONTINUOUSLY FOR 3,000 YEARS.
JEWS LIVED ON THE LAND UNTIL THEY BECAME A MINORITY -ON THEIR OWN LAND. THEY WILL NOT DO THAT AGAIN.
END OF 19TH CENTURY
In the 1880s a MOVEMENT FOR NATIONAL JEWISH LIBERATION arose out of necessity.
It was able to achieve their goal: THE INDEPENDENT NATION OF ISRAEL WITH 6 MILLION JEWS LIVING IN IT BY 2019.
IT HAS ITS OWN ISRAELI NATIONAL ANTHEM; HATIKVAH (The Hope)
(To live here, it needs to be a part of your heart and soul, too)
So long as still within our breasts
The Jewish heart beats true
So long as still towards the Easts
To Zion looks the Jew.
So long our hopes are not yet lost
Two thousand years we cherished them
To live in freedom in the land
Of Zion and Jerusalem.
Transliteration of Hatikva text:
This is the whole story of the Jews of Israel and why they are here.
This National Anthem holds the spirit and life of a very ancient people who needed in the worst way to come home.
