Jew – Speak Hebrew!
We will continue to explain the great obligation to thank Hashem for the miracles we have seen, as Hashem and Am Yisrael have returned to Zion and we have merited the establishment of State of Israel, the beginning of the growth of our liberation.

Why celebrate
What reason do we have to celebrate on Israeli Independence Day and what what are religious people happy about? We should celebrate the progress we have made, and pray for what needs completion.

Thank God We Have A State - What Next?
“May it be God’s will that just as we have merited the beginning of the redemption, so may we merit hearing the shofar blast of our righteous Messiah.” Thank God we have a state, but how shall we proceed from here to the complete redemption?

"Dwell in the land, and enjoy security"
: When David ben Gurion announced the establishment of the state, was he acting realistically? We were but a nation of tattered refugees gathered together from the four corners of the earth, surrounded by millions of Arabs with imposing armies.

The Track, the Trees, and the Splendor
The process of establishing sanctity in Israel was riddled with vicissitudes, from the Shilo sanctuary in Joseph's hereditary portion, to Gibeon and Nov in the portion of Benjamin, and finally to Jerusalem. The same is true of Israel's leadership.

Appreciating Miracles - Redemption's Foundation
Thanking God for the miracles which He performs for us and recognizing the good which He has bestowed upon us, lies at the very foundation of our redemption. Therefore, even today, if we want God's works of salvation to continue, we must thank Him.
