Holiness of Palestine : ウィキペディア英語版 | Holiness of Palestine
Palestine is considered to be a holy place in many religions such as Judaism. Part of the reason why Palestine is seen as sacred by the Jews is because it "was the cradle and sepulcher of their Patriarchs and their Promised Land." Veneration and love for Palestine was and still is seen as a vital aspect of one's Jewish life. ==Significance of residence== The Talmud mentions the religious duty of colonising Palestine. So significant in Judaism is the act of purchasing land in Palestine, the Talmud allows for the lifting of certain religious restrictions of Sabbath observance to further its acquisition and settlement. Rabbi Johanan said that "one who walks a distance of 4 cubits in Palestine may be confident of a share in the future world". A story says that when R. Eleazar b. Shammua' and R. Johanan HaSandlar left Palestine to study from R. Judah ben Bathyra, they only managed to reach Sidon when "the thought of the sanctity of Palestine overcame their resolution, and they shed tears, rent their garments, and turned back". Due to the Jewish population being concentrated in Palestine, emigration was generally prevented, which resulted in a limiting of the amount of space available for Jewish learning. However, after suffering persecutions in Palestine for centuries after the destruction of the Temple, Rabbis who had found it very difficult to retain their position moved to Babylon, which offered them better protecion. Many Jews wanted Palestine to be the place where they died. R. Anan said, "To be buried in Palestine is like being buried under the altar". The saying "His land will absolve His people" implies that burial in Palestine with cause one to be absolves of all one's sins.
