Aliyah (a Hebrew word that means to “go up”) today, has come to mean the return of the Jews to the Land of Israel, their ancestral homeland. Simply stated, it is the ingathering of the exiles from the four corners of the earth. Aliyah “is rooted in the Jewish people’s fervent hope to rebuild its national life in the country from which it was exiled nearly 2,000 years ago.”
We’re partnering with the God of Israel who promised through the prophet Jeremiah, “For I will set my eyes on them for good, and I bring them back to this land; I will build them and not tear them down, and I will plant them and not uproot them.”(Jeremiah 24:6). We help establish immigrants in the land by assisting with basic household items, providing vocational training, and mentoring towards employment.
In Jeremiah 32:41, the Lord says, “Yes, I will rejoice over them to do them good, and I will assuredly plant them in this land, with all My heart, and with all My soul.”
God promised to gather His children from the four corners of the earth. Today, we look at the ICEJ’s work in supporting Aliyah from the South—both from Ethiopia and South Africa.
For the past three years, Israel has seen a rising tide of Jewish immigration from Europe. The push factors are rising antisemitism, and the pull factors are opportunity and religious freedom to live as Jews in their own homeland.
The concept of Klita (integration) is central to understanding God’s plan for the restoration of Israel and the role of Gentile believers in this divine process.“ He will raise a banner for the nations and gather the exiles of Israel; he will assemble the scattered people of Judah from the four quarters of the earth.” Isaiah 11:12
