While the Bible is full of God’s promise to redeem the Jewish people, many have asked what the Jewish people have done to deserve His redemption. This verse implies that the redemption will begin through their commitment to the Land of Israel and the stones of Jerusalem. Even if the Jewish people demonstrate an insufficient commitment to the laws of religious observance, as long as they love the “dust and stones” of Israel, it will be considered sufficient by God to allow for the redemption. Many of the early twentieth-century Zionists may not have been religiously observant, but nevertheless, it was their love of the Land which paved the way for the beginning of the flowering of the redemption.

Literary, archaeological and historical records were examined to determine whether or not the famous story of the Exodus of Israelites from the land of Egypt is fact or fiction.
