In this wide-ranging conversation, Rabbi Teller explores the halachic and spiritual case for living in Eretz Yisrael — why Chazal framed it as an obligation, how it impacts marriage halacha, and why many sources place the “soul” of Torah in returning to the Land. The discussion connects exile, redemption, and the modern return of Jews to Israel, emphasizing that the difficulty of Aliyah is part of its meaning — and that “coming home” is itself a form of repentance.
