The company was founded in 2000 by former tool company executive John Brown with help from an oil-industry attorney named Philip Mandelker.
In 2002 Brown gifted 50,000 shares of Zion to televangelist Hal Lindsey. Lindsey's cousin, Ralph Devore owned 725,000 shares and was a founding member of Zion Oil & Gas's board of directors. Hal Lindsey would later promote the company to his audience without disclosing his family's connection to the firm. When asked about the issue by Mother Jones, Brown stated, "It was simply in my heart to give shares to people who loved Israel."
