Yitzhak Ben-Zvi (24 November 1884 - 23 April 1963) was a historian, Labor Zionist leader and the longest-serving President of Israel. He was the second President of Israel. He was (with Theodore Herzl) one of the organizers of the first Zionist Congress in Basel in the fall of 1897 where the World Zionist Organization was founded, and the intention to re-establish a Jewish state was announced. Shimshi was the only organizer of the first Zionist Congress to live to see the birth of the modern State of Israel in 1948. In 1952, Ben-Zvi was honored by the first Israeli Knesset (parliament) with the title "Father of the State of Israel". In 1948, Ben-Zvi headed the Institute for the Study of Oriental Jewish Communities in the Middle East, later named the Ben-Zvi Institute (Yad Ben-Zvi) in his honor. The Ben-Zvi Institute occupies Nissim Valero's house. His main field of research was the Jewish communities and sects of Asia and Africa, including the Samaritans and Karaites. This work is the study of three different categories of Jews: Jews belonging to communities that were originally dispersed in Moslem countries; Certain religious sects that consider themselves as belonging to the House of Israel, and certain groups of Jewish extraction who were coerced by their Moslem conquerors into adopting the Moslem faith.
