Let’s rehearse some basics:
In Judaism, the Land of Israel does not translate into the “State of Israel.”
The Jewish “nation,” as referenced in the Torah, is not a nationality, but a people whose “peoplehood” is defined by the Torah alone.
Jews have diverse cultures. What we share are our sacred 613 mitzvahs and traditions that shape and dictate our daily lives.
Jews don’t have a separate “homeland.” Eretz Yisrael was never viewed as a political entity in Judaism. We consider our country the one to which we pledge allegiance, and for us, that is the USA.
When we pray for redemption, it is not some national calling, but a prayer for Gd to restore His Countenance to the Holy Land and establish everlasting peace among all nations, who will worship Him.
