Abstract
This article explores the various reactions to the Yom Kippur War as they manifested with
the Religious Zionist consciousness. It begins with an analysis of Yehuda Amital’s work
From Out of the Depths (Ha-Ma’alot mi-Ma’amaqim), which had an impact on many youths
and the momentum of the settlement of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. This work was
published several months after the war. Likewise, this article presents a broad analysis of
Haim Sabato’s Adjusting Sights (Ti’um Kavvanot). Although this work appeared roughly
two decades after the war, it retrospectively expresses a struggle with faith and
conventions following the experience of war. Further reactions are discussed in this
article, which express the shock and spiritual accounting that arose from the war
