Israel
Constantly the eyes of God are upon it, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year.
The tiniest strip of land creates the world’s largest ripples. It is tiny in size, but humongous in soul. If the land of the world war a body, Israel would be its heart; if the peoples of the earth were on organism, Israel would be its soul. If the nations of the world knew how much they benefited from the Land of Israel, its nucleus, the Holy Temple, and its people, the children of Israel, the nations of the world would protect its holy purity with everything they’ve got. Israel is the bellwether of the world: How Israel goes, so goes the world.

We desperately need a Meaningful Life Center here in Berlin, Germany! We have a couple of spiritual centers here but they are completely esoteric, and I find Rabbi Jacobson to be far more profound and very relevant. I really wish you could open a center here.
