The Gathering of Israel ((ヘブライ語:קיבוץ גלויות), ''Kibbutz Galuyot'' (Biblical: ''Qibbuṣ Galuyoth''), lit. Ingathering of the Exiles, also known as Ingathering of () Diaspora) is the biblical promise of Deuteronomy 30:1-5 given by Moses, to the people of Israel prior to their entrance into the Land of Israel (Eretz Yisrael). He foresaw that the people of Israel would sin in their new land and would therefore be exiled. However, he also foresaw the people's return to their homeland. During the days of the Babylonian exile, writings of the prophets Isaiah and Ezekiel encouraged the people of Israel with a promise of a future gathering of the exiles to the land of Israel. The continual hope for a return of the Israelite exiles to the land has been in the hearts of Jews ever since the destruction of the Second Temple. Maimonides connected its materialization with the coming of the Messiah. The gathering of the exiles in the land of Israel, became the core idea of the Zionist Movement〔 (Kibbutz Galuyot ), Jewish Virtual Library, Glossary〕 and the core idea of Israel's Scroll of Independence〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Declaration of the Establishment of the State of Israel - Jewish Virtual Library )〕 (''Megilat Ha'atzmaut''〔(Megillat Ha'atzmaut ), Jewish Virtual Library, Glossary〕), embodied by the idea of going up, Aliyah, since the ''Holy Land'' is considered to be spiritually higher than all other land. The immigration of Jews to the land and the State of Israel, the "mass" wave of ''Aliyot'' (plural form), has been likened unto the Exodus from Egypt. ==Moses' promise== In the latter parts of the Book of Deuteronomy, when Moses' death was near, he prophesied about the destiny of the people of Israel. Their destiny would not be promising – curses would come upon them and they would go into exile – but when they return to their homeland later, their situation will be as good as it had been in the past, and so said Moses: In the process of the gathering of the exiles of Israel Moses emphasizes the followings points: # Following conditions attached to: "and you will return to the Lord, your God." # The exiles "at the end of the heavens" will also return. # The situation will be improved after the ingathering of the exiles of Israel in the land of Israel: "and He will do good to you, and He will make you more numerous than your forefathers." 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gathering of Israel」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
