Modern Hebrew literature offers a rich but largely untapped resource for religious preaching, containing sophisticated theological themes that challenge the perceived divide between secular and sacred texts. Through a thematic survey of religious and cultural motifs, rather than a comprehensive bibliography, this research resolves the scholarly debate between Baruch Kurzweill and Simon Halkin regarding the literature's fundamental nature. Supporting Halkin's interpretation, the analysis reveals that religious values persist throughout modern Hebrew works, manifesting as spiritual exploration rather than traditional doctrine. Key thematic categories emerge: biblical reinterpretations and modern midrashim by Rachel, Yocheved Bat Miriam, and Moshe Shamir; nuanced treatments of rabbinic material, particularly in Samuel Joseph Agnon's complex works; Holocaust literature's theological implications; and religious sentiments within ostensibly secular poetry. While these works prove valuable for sermonic purposes, they demand careful literary analysis and contextual understanding to avoid superficial interpretation. The findings demonstrate that modern Hebrew literature, though approaching faith with ambiguity rather than certainty, provides significant resources for contemporary religious discourse when properly situated within its literary and critical framework.
