The Jewish Home

The Jewish Home is a political party in Israel that is primarily associated with religious Zionism. It represents a combination of religious, nationalist, and conservative values, aiming to blend Jewish religious heritage with the governance and development of the State of Israel. The party places a strong emphasis on the promotion and preservation of Jewish identity, education, and practices within the Israeli society. It advocates for the rights and interests of the religious Zionist community, although its appeal extends beyond to include more secular supporters who share its nationalist…   and conservative values.

One of the core values of The Jewish Home is the importance of the Land of Israel to the Jewish people. The party supports the expansion and development of Jewish settlements in the West Bank, viewing the entire Land of Israel as historically and religiously significant. This stance often puts it at odds with international views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and has implications for the party's policies regarding peace processes and negotiations.

The Jewish Home also prioritizes security concerns, advocating for strong defense policies to protect Israeli citizens against terrorism and external threats. It supports the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) and emphasizes the need for a robust national defense.

On social and economic issues, The Jewish Home tends to support policies that reflect traditional family values and promote social welfare within the framework of a free market economy. It has voiced support for measures that benefit the middle class, small businesses, and the agricultural sector, reflecting its broader constituency base that includes both urban professionals and rural settlers.

Education is another significant area of focus for The Jewish Home, with the party advocating for an education system that integrates Jewish values and heritage with general studies. It supports increased funding for religious schools and initiatives that strengthen Jewish identity among Israeli youth.

Overall, The Jewish Home seeks to create a society that is deeply rooted in Jewish values and traditions, while also being modern and democratic. Its policies and values reflect a vision of Israel that balances religious heritage with the challenges and realities of governing a diverse and complex state.
