Stealing the land II

When the nations of the world say to you you are thieves for you have stolen the land....In a spiritual sense this is the claim leave Judaism out of your business life out of the real world. Religion belongs in the sphere of the holy not the mundane. We answer G-d original intent was the material world be transformed. This is why the world was created. The Hebrew word for land Eretz is conncted to the word for will Ratzon. The Lubavitcher rebbes would say Mach Doh eretz yisrael! Make Israel here. Steal a little from your mundane existence from the times of eating and sleeping and make it holy learn and pray.... make it into the Holy land-the holy will.

Likutei Sichos vol. 10 pgs. 1-6
