Introduction

Eretz Yisrael, the land we love, is more than a country – it is a virtual textbook of Jewish history and tradition.

The names of its cities and sites teach us so much about our past. The insights of our Talmudic Sages about the spiritual dimensions of the Land inspire us to properly appreciate the extraordinary gift which we received from God.

This section of Love of the Land offers a look at some of the important lessons we can learn about ourselves as a people and Eretz Yisrael as our Land.

We are confident that readers will gain from these lessons, so colorfully highlighted by photographs, a greater understanding of why we should love our Land.
