We Jews know that a pandemic doesn't just happen one fine day... It happens because the One Above sent it, and He sent it to wake us up! \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv\u003eAnd so, of course, the first thing for us to do is to make a \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003echeshbon hanefesh\u003c\/span\u003e, to examine our deeds and try to do better. We also daven and plead before Hakadosh Baruch Hu that it should pass — because davening will help more than anything.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv\u003eDuring these complicated times, we are dealing not only with the pandemic itself, but also with many questions: What is our \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ehishtadlus\u003c\/span\u003e? And what if some of the rules and regulations mean that we have to change our usual ways of serving Hashem? \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv\u003eWhen addressing these questions and others like it, there are many different opinions. People are divided about what is the right thing to do. But the truth is that for us it makes no difference: we have \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003erabbanim\u003c\/span\u003e whom we can ask, and we act according to what they say. If you have a question about how to act in any situation, you go to your father or your \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003erav\u003c\/span\u003e and there's your answer. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv\u003eBeyond that, it's important to understand that even though there are different opinions about exactly what to do, everyone agrees that we have an obligation to protect our health. And no one disagrees that we have an obligation to protect the lives of the people around us.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv\u003eWhat does this mean for us? One thing is clear: If we had the \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003ezechus\u003c\/span\u003e to have a world run according to \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eda'as Torah\u003c\/span\u003e, there would be no disagreements. We all would behave the same way, truly united as one!\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv\u003eThe aim of this book, which shows what Eretz Yisrael would look like if the government was solely run according to Torah, is to bridge the gaps that have formed between different communities and promote the message of \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003eachdus\u003c\/span\u003e, of unity. At the end of the day, we have the Torah to guide us, and we all want to do the will of Hakadosh Baruch Hu. On that we all agree!\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e      \u003cdiv\u003eAnd so, we will continue to do our best to act in the way the \u003cspan style=\"font-style: italic;\"\u003erabbanim\u003c\/span\u003e tell us and to do Hashem's will. At the same time, we daven and hope for the day when everything will be crystal clear, and there will be no place for disagreements anymore...\u003c\/div\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: bold;\"\u003e by M.
