| Mar 21, 2019 at 1:31 | comment | added | Y e z | I don't think that the Minchas Chinuch upon which my question is based (or the Sefer HaChinuch, for that matter) would agree with this - they would either disagree with this formulation of the Rambam, or understand that this was specific to the original arrival of the Jewish people in Israel. But Sefer HaChinuch says בכל זמן ובכל מקום, and Minchas Chinuch says it is a mitzvah upon individuals, which would seem to imply independence from having a monarch. | |
