Halakhah su Isaia 51:16

The reestablishment of the people in its holy land is still young, and what has been built until now is minuscule compared to the grandeur of our hope, which is mantled in godly power—“I, who planted the skies and made firm the earth, have said to Zion, you are My people!”⁶¹Isa. 51:16. So, too, the spiritual revival within us that is starting to raise up our precious country is small and weak. The glory that will appear when shmita and yovel are observed on the holy land still seem far away. Nonetheless, our spirits are lifted by what we can fulfill of the mitzvot that are connected to the land, even though what we have is still only partial. Now is the time to revive those aspects of the Torah that speak precisely to the revival of the land: learning about the special mitzvot of the land is becoming more and more significant for all those of God’s people who are focusing on what is happening in the land to which God’s spirit has returned—where a special holiness must be reflected and revealed by those who are living here, above and beyond the demands that the rest of the Torah makes on us wherever we are.
