The soul of the Jewish People is the Torah. The body is the land - TopicsExpress



          

The soul of the Jewish People is the Torah. The body is the land of Israel. There are many commandments that cannot be fulfilled outside the Land of Israel. In exile our people suffer. Nevertheless, with all of the difficulties involved in living in exile, we as a people are alive. The land of Israel without Torah, however, is like a body without a soul. It is just a piece of land. Only when both exist together is there a complete unit. (from the Chofetz Chaim al HaTorah, p. 65)
