Machshava:

Israel,  Religious Zionism 

Collections: Rav Shvat on the Torah

Description

Q. Why are the IDF boys who fight and even fall, considered "Al Kiddush Hashem" (sanctifying God's Name), if some of them are not religious? Q. Why does it say in this week's parsha that avenging the attack of Midian is "to avenge for God" (Bamidbar 31, 3) and also "to avenge for Israel (31, 2)? These 2 questions which I received separately, in fact answer each other!
