Why did some Jews in Chaim Potok's book The Chosen not believe it was time to return to Israel?
Their view derived from the historic Jewish principle that Jews should not establish a government in the Land of Israel until the Messiah returns (see Talmud, Ketubot 111a). Most Orthodox communities have relaxed this principle and generally support Israel, not necessarily as a Jewish State but as a State with a lot of Jews.
