David Ben-Gurion (1886-1973) was born in Russian Poland. At the age of fourteen, he and his friends formed a Zionist youth club, and at twenty he went to Palestine to work the land as a pioneer. He helped to organize Bar Giora, a defense group of Jewish settlers. An ardent Zionist, Ben-Gurion worked long and hard for the establishment of the State of Israel. He served as prime minister from 1948 to 1953 and again from 1955 to 1963. The illuminating addresses presented in this volume were delivered by the first Prime Minister of the State of Israel to a select group of students who comprised the "Prime Minister's Bible Study Circle." The issues with which Mr. Ben-Gurion wrestles, and the resolutions he proposes, will be fascinating to all those interested in the sacred text, regardless of religion.
