There are great rabbis in Israel today, of a caliber that is not to be found abroad. The nation of Israel is called a wise people everywhere but coming to the Land of Israel, because of the atmosphere here, makes wise people even wiser. The wisdom granted by God to Israel has brought great salvation to the nation of Israel, and we have been privileged by an ingathering of exiles and a rebuilding of the Land, and have become a nation with a sovereign state; the enemies of Israel surrendered to Israel because of the wisdom given by God to Israel.
