Simha Bat Hana
It is in the context of this dismal situation that the Torah introduces us to Moshe Rabbeinu. In the very first prophecy to the Father of Prophets, God tells Moshe that He will go into Egypt and take the people out of that land... "to bring us to a good and expansive land, a land flowing with milk and honey"… to bring us to Eretz Israel. For the patriarchs, Eretz Israel was a promise, to them and their descendants; but for us, Eretz Israel is the reason for our redemption from Egypt, the reason for our existence as a nation.
From the very beginning, God's plan was not merely to free us from Egyptian bondage and oppression. His idea was to take us from there, give us the Torah, and bring us to Eretz Israel.
If we believe in the God who said, "I am the Lord your God who took you out of Egypt...", then we must also believe that He wants us in Eretz Israel.
We have delayed God's plan by behaving in such ways that brought about the destruction of the Beit HaMikdash (first and second). Today we have the opportunity to strengthen our commitment to Torah and Eretz Israel and do our share in bringing about the full redemption.

Re'e NEVER EXTREME EXCEPT ISRAEL
Parshat Re'eh
Judaism is against extremism, so how can we understand the seemingly extreme statements found in our sages in favor of living in the Land of Israel and against living in Chutz laAretz? The article deals with the seeming contradiction between the strength of Free-Will and the strength of being influenced by our surroundings.
Ekev DANCE FOR ISRAEL- FOR YOUR BENEFIT
Parshat Eikev
Description: The 7 Haftarot we read after Tisha B'Av ("Shiva D'Nichemta") surely get us excited that they're coming TRUE, and awaken us to yearn, dance & join the return to Zion! The short article also deals with the problems and solutions facing the American Jewish community as discussed at a recent panel, as well as the question why Jews come from America to Israel to help when we face problems, but Israelis don't come to aid Jews in America when they face anti-Semitism.
