The term "Zionist" is not explicitly mentioned in the Bible. However, the concept of Zionism is rooted in biblical ideas and prophecies related to the restoration of Israel and the Jewish people.
Key biblical references include:
1. *Zion*: The Bible frequently mentions Zion, referring to Jerusalem or the Jewish people (Psalm 2:6, Isaiah 2:3).
2. *Return to the land*: The prophets speak of the Jewish people's return to their ancestral homeland (Isaiah 11:11-12, Ezekiel 37:21-22).
3. *Restoration of Israel*: The Bible prophesies the restoration of Israel and the Jewish people (Amos 9:14-15, Jeremiah 31:10-12).
