Tsvi holds a Ph.D. in the history of the people of Israel from the Hebrew University.

Dr. Sadan has also written many articles, both in Hebrew and English, on a wide range of issues, including Zionism, Judaism, Jewish-Christian relations, Modern anti-Semitism and its causes, New Testament and more.
