Summary:

Exile and Restoration in Jewish Thought presents the history of an
idea originating at the intersection of Judaic piety and the social
history of the Jews: faith in a protective sovereign deity amid
contrary conditions. Exiled primordially (Eden), during the
Patriarchal era, in the sixth century bce, and from the first century
to the twentieth, the Jewish experience of alienation has been the
historical backdrop against which affirmations of divine benevolence
have been constructed. While histories of Jewish thought have tended
to accentuate the speculative creativity of medieval and modern Je.
