After the destruction of the First Temple,the Jewish people lost their homeland,and the Jewish people's remembrance of their homeland,Jerusalem,and their willingness to return became an important concept in the Jewish religious life.Since then,the Aliya movement to return to Jerusalem has appeared many times in history,but most of them are self-issued.Since the emergence of Zionism in the 1880s and 1990s,during the continuous development of the Zionist movement,the Aliya operation that returned to Jerusalem began to become organized to a certain scale.As early as in the Bible,God gave the land of Canaan to Abraham and his descendants,and once again expressed his promise to Isaac and Jacob,the promised land became the most sacred place in the Jewish mind,the promised land.The concept was deeply lingering in the blood of the Jews.Although they could not follow the covenant with God and spread around the world and became various roads,the Jews never gave up hope.They firmly believe that there will be a time when the end of the world comes.Messiah led them to break away from the oppression of aliens and return to the prosperity of the Davidian dynasty,and the arrival of the last days also represented the arrival of a perfect world.This religious tradition is based on the religious theory of the Zion movement and the action of Aliya.The Jewish national movement that appeared before the Zionist movement in the 19th century was rarely politically colored.The goal of their struggle was religious pursuit.Before the founding of the country in the late 19th century,the academic community divided the Aliya action during this period into seven.This time,the seven Aliyah actions directly promoted the factors and the participants were different,but they were all deeply influenced by Zionism and traditional religious theories.The religious sects have different attitudes toward the Zionist movement and the Aliyah movement.The "Mizzrahi" and the Agudat Yisrael,which are most closely related to the Zionist movement,are also two religious Jewish political organizations who have expressed their views.Mizzrahi is committed to upholding the orthodox beliefs of the Jews in Zionism,while the Agudat Yisrael is firmly opposed to the secular influence of Zionism and has supported Zionism as time goes by.The extreme orthodoxy and Hasidic faction within the orthodox school have always been firmly opposed to Zionism.The modern orthodox party actively supported Zionism from the beginning and provided a reasonable explanation for the Zionist movement from a religious perspective.The reformists began to hold opposing opinions.In the later period,the goal was to support Zionism.The vast majority of conservative Jews were fanatical Zionists,and their attitude toward Zionism was self-evident.In general,except for the ultra-Orthodox and Hasidic sects,the final attitudes of other factions turned to support the movement of Zionism.For the Aliya action,the factions did not judge this more because the Aliyah action could not be simply defined as being influenced by Zionism or because of religious views and choosing to return to the Holy Land,and resolutely opposed to the extreme orthodoxy.And Hasidic is also supportive of the Aliyah activities that return to the Holy Land due to religious factors.
