    The Rav rhetorically asked but never answered the question of: what's preventing them from going beyond the Yarden? They all know the answer to that but are afraid to admit it: Money, comfort, the "good life" that's outside of Eretz Yisroel. If our brethren outside of Israel believe that they can have it both ways - living the "good life" outside of the Land and walking with ease into the Land no problem - when Moshiach ben David is revealed are sadly mistaken and if they don't wake up now before Moshiach's arrival then they'll be in for a very rude awakening of what they'll have to go through in order to arrive into the Land when he does arrive and it won't be pretty. May Hashem have mercy on them. Rfael Yaakov

      You are not a Navi or one of the 36 Holy Tzadikim, because they never would talk to their fellow Yidden in such terms. Musar doesn’t work for most, words of kindness and goodness are your best bet. Either way the Yidden that have the Tzuchus to live in Eretz Yisroel right now are supper special and have a lot to be proud of but please don’t find fault with your brethren that are not as lucky as you are.

      I agree. Pple r so quick to judge . I find in my life now Hashem really wants pple to empathize with others and if I don’t then it comes back to bite me in a similar situation . It seems to me Hashem doesn’t care so much about doing mitzvos as He cares about feeling love for others and being united with pple in their simcha or troubles. Malky

      Do you actually believe that Hashem doesn't care whether we do mitzvas? Who told you that? Feeling love and compassion and care for other people is one of the 613 mitzvot. Why would He give us mitzvot to do if He didn't care whether we do them? Why did He tell us we'd be punish for not observing His mitzvas if He didn't care whether we do them? Why do we have Tisha b'av if He didn't care whether we observe His mitzvas? You're wrong. He does care and our life individually and as a nation depends upon us observing them. Rfael Yaakov

      Also, when a parent gives children rules does he/she expect them to abide by them? When a government passes laws does it expect the citizenry to obey them? If the answer is of course they do, so why would our expectation be any different when the Creator of the Universe gives us laws and ordinances to live by? Rfael Yaakov

      I’ll give u a recent example One Thurs I was feeling very uninspired and not connected to Hashem at all. Now this was very unusual for me. But when I do have this I work very hard to get out of it immediately . But it was already almost SHABBOS and it wasn’t going away. Anyways I lit candles and my daughter came home on SHABBOS This never happened before. Normally I would start yelling at her that she was mechalel SHABBOS and show her how sad and angry I was. But because at that time I was feeling very disconnected from Hashem
      I was able to commiserate with her and talk to her with kindness
      And show her that if u fall u can rise and do better After that she told me that bec I was so kind and sweet with her she would be shomer SHABBOS again. Also my mood lifted and I felt connected to Hashem again. Hashem prepared the refuah before the Makah And of course following the mitzvos is the most imp thing but there is a time to step back and look at the bigger picture. Sometimes a little love ( and unity) is needed to bring the pic into focus I thanked Hashem tremendously that He guided me. Malky.

      What you say is absolutely correct. This is a far cry from what you said about Hashem not caring whether we do mitzvas

    Please pray for all of us who pray to make Aliyah and have not been able to do so. For some, it is not money or comfort that prevents us at all. KG

      There's nothing wrong with wanting to aim for comfort. (Emphasis on comfort vs. luxury. In other words, your personal comfort-zone. That varies from person to person). Even the Torah says that people should seek to move to a more tolerable situation than they had previously, rather than the other way around. Which makes sense.

      True, but with words of comfort, goodness and kindness. If you have ever listened to great Rebbes or holy Tzadkim, they treat people with kindness and speak with kindness.
      Heaven forbid that these individuals who taunt their brethren with harsh words would be on the opposite side, they would understand very quickly what other are going through. Be kind to others please!

      KG (and everyone else) I apologize for the pain and anger that I caused with my post. My comment was directed specifically to those who have been blessed with the money and personal circumstances that allow them to make Aliya but don't and give only lip service and say "b'ezrat Hashem" (with G-d's help) when Hashem has already given them everything they need to come but refuse to do so for their own selfish reasons. However for people such as you who weep in their heart and long to live in the Land and because of circumstances beyond their control can't that's a different story. When you weep in your heart because of the distance between you and the Land the Land responds in kind by coming close to you in your heart and the distance is no longer there. It may be there physically but only physically. Hashem sees that in your heart and though I'm not a prophet I know enough to tell you that when the Moshiach comes and the time comes to come home what's in your heart will be seen and the actual physical process will be a lot easier and the rewards will be great when you arrive. So, don't despair, the Land is not far from you for the Land itself has come to you and it dwells in your heart. The Land weeps with you. Your weeping has achieved in many respects what you long for. Don't stop weeping for your weeping is your remedy. May Hashem bless you with the circumstances where you can finally physically come home with your family. All the blessings.

    Regarding the comment about moving to a more tolerable situation than previous. Do Jews who live outside of Israel actually and honestly believe that they are living in a more tolerable situation than Jews living in Israel? Rfael Yaakov
