On Zealotry

Is zealotry a legitimate phenomenon? According to the plain sense of Scripture, most readers would respond positively.

Nevertheless, a closer reading and our Sages help us understand that zealotry can be a symptom of a lack of leadership and of a serious social crisis and can be acknowledged "a posteriori" as the less of all evils in certain situations, but not as a precedent.

Shabbat Shalom to all.
