When I became a baal t’shuva 37 years ago, I benefited
greatly by studying the writings of Rabbi Shimshon Rafael Hirsh,
especially his Commentary on the Torah and his Commentary on the Book of
Psalms. In the year 1836, he wrote in his book, “Nineteen Letters” that
the mission of Am Yisrael, the Jewish people, in the Exile was to be a
light to the nations.
With the Festival of Shavuot approaching, I asked a group of
influential Rabbis in Israel if, after the establishment of the State of
Israel, the Jews in the Diaspora still had the same mission?
