What Is Our Right to the Land?

Torah is replete with references about the special connection of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel. Yet Rashi, the foremost commentator of Torah, sees it in the very first words of the book of Genesis: “In the beginning G-d created the heavens and the Earth.”

Torah is replete with references about the special connection of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel. Yet Rashi, the foremost commentator of Torah, sees it in the very first words of the book of Genesis: “In the beginning G-d created the heavens and the Earth.”

According to Rashi, the first verse in Torah provides the Jewish people with an indisputable claim to the Land of Israel; one they must proclaim to an often hostile world.
