 Eldad did not believe that the creation of the state of Israel was the goal of Zionism.He considered the state a tool to be used in realizing the true goal of Zionism, which he called "Malkhut Yisrael", "the Kingdom of Israel".Eldad sought what he referred to as national redemption, meaning a sovereign Jewish kingdom in the biblical borders of Israel, with all the world's Jews living there, and the Jewish Temple rebuilt in Jerusalem.
