What is the tension in Israel between secular and Orthodox Jews?

Les explains that even today in Israel he is almost afraid the Jews will end up in civil war themselves. The cause is the tremendous confrontation between the secular community, who have no time for the things of God and nothing in the area of faith, and the Orthodox people, who are so wrapped up in Judaism that they even kind of lose touch of reality. He connects this to Paul’s approach: Paul became as a Jew to gain the Jews, and to those under the law as under the law, likely referring to the more religious element of Judaism. Paul had to approach Jews not steeped in their religion, but also those who were under the law and practicing it.
