Jan 6, 2017 at 10:09 comment added HaLeiVi That quote from the Maharal (Netzach Yisroel 26) is not quite accurate. Indeed, the Satmar Rebbe derived from there that he means to say Yehoreg Ve'al Yaavor. But what he says there is that even when they are killing us we shouldn't leave — based on the Gemara there that we were sworn by the generation of Shmad. Rabbi Hartman, who put out the new annotated Maharals, mentions this as well, and wonders how it went from this to Yehoreg Ve'al Yaavor.

Feb 18, 2013 at 4:25 comment added knowit One should speak the truth even if it is against our own selves as God will call to account all of us and God alone is our protector and hence should not hide the truth even if all the people of the world are against you

Feb 17, 2013 at 19:49 comment added Fred Additionally, there are different interpretations of the Talmud that you cited, and it's used as a basis for opinions that disagree with each other.
Feb 17, 2013 at 19:31 comment added Fred Since you aren't asking about the evidence that both sides use for their positions, I'm concerned about the motivation behind your question. I'm also concerned that you may be trying to use the J.SE community as a workhorse to provide Biblical support for an unstated political agenda. || Further, you are conflating "the building of the nation of Israel" with unilaterally establishing a state via force without the approval of the international community, and the views that you cite were referring to the latter, not the former.

Feb 17, 2013 at 4:33 comment added Isaac Moses ... In fact, presenting such strongly-worded quotations without referring to the contexts from which they came so that they can be evaluated in-context is not fair to either their subjects or their objects. Accordingly, I'm going to delete them and leave it to you to replace them along with references to where they came from.
Feb 17, 2013 at 3:08 comment added Isaac Moses This question would be more valuable if you'd cite the sources for these quotations.

Feb 17, 2013 at 1:35 comment added Hacham Gabriel No to which question? And source (even though it's a comment it would be nice).
