Bible Bloc Party (Hebrew:גּוּשׁ הַתָּנָכִי,romanized: Gush HaTanachi)[2] is a minor political party inIsrael.[3]
The party was created by Dennis (Avi) Lipkin, a veteran religiousJewish speaker toEvangelical Christians in the US[4] and a well-known lecturer who has spoken in over 1,000 churches.[5] It has run for theKnesset since 2019, seeking the vote of non-Jewish Russian immigrants from the formerSoviet Union andChristian Arabs,[4] winning about 0.01% of the total vote.
In January 2024, the party's leader Dennis (Avi) Lipkin declared on video, "Most of the Middle East belongs to Israel. Eventually, our borders will extend from Lebanon, the great desert, which is Saudi Arabia, and then from the Mediterranean to the Euphrates." Mr. Lipkin also articulates his belief, stating, "I believe we're going to take Mecca, Medina, and Mount Sinai and purify those places."[6]
The party strongly supports unity betweenJews andChristians, as well as preservingJudeo-Christian values. It opposes thetwo-state solution andPalestinian statehood, instead arguing for imposing Israeli sovereignity over the entire land. It is also opposed toyerida, which it wants to solve through improving economic conditions in Israel.[7]
