Israel: An Echo of Eternity is Dr. Heschel's book about the past; present; and future home of the Jews. According to Dr. Heschel the presence of Israel has tremendous historical and religious significance for the whole world: "History is not always made by men alone...Israel is a personal challenge; a personal religious issue. We are God's stake in human history. We are the dawn and the dusk; the challenge and the test. The presence of Israel is the repudiation of despair. Israel calls for a renewal of trust in the Lord of history." Abraham Joshua Heschel; one of the foremost religious figures of our time; died in 1972. Israel: An Echo of Eternity is his powerful and eloquent book on the meaning of Israel today.
