For two thousand years of exile, every Jew in the Diaspora has longed for the return of the Land of Israel, praying with hope: “May our eyes behold your return to Tzion in mercy.”
Eretz HaKodesh was established to fulfill this yearning, giving a voice to Jews in the Diaspora who have been praying for the land for over two millennia. It serves as their official representative before the institutions in Eretz Yisrael. Eretz HaKodesh allows Jews worldwide to feel a strong connection to the land and to influence events affecting its holiness and the preservation of Jewish tradition, ensuring their voices are heard on key issues.
The movement’s vision is to represent Orthodox communities in the Diaspora and ensure their voices are heard by the official institutions in Israel. Over the years, liberal movements have gained significant influence as the primary representatives of the Jewish Diaspora. From this position, they have pushed agendas that impact crucial issues related to religion and state in Israel.
Eretz HaKodesh seeks to balance this influence by accurately reflecting the power dynamics of Jewish communities in the Diaspora and amplifying the voices of Orthodox communities dedicated to preserving the timeless values of the Torah and authentic Jewish tradition.
Through its efforts, Eretz HaKodesh aims to express the views of the Jewish Diaspora on Jewish matters in the Land of Israel and advocate for the rights of all Jewish communities worldwide.
