Israel and the nations

Knight has a lot of intriguing things to say about Israel and the nations, among them: “As Israel suffers the gentile onslaughts, Israel is half-persuaded that it has to compete with the Gentiles as an equal rather than as their lord; Israel has to fight them as thought it were one of them, rather than bear them as a parent does a child. Inasmuch as Israel succumbs to this temptation, Israel sins – Israel gentiles .”
