Goal:

To present a picture of Eretz Yisrael 100 years ago in terms of the desolate state of the land and the small size and concentration of the Jewish population.  This description should serve as a backdrop to the future discussions on reclaiming and  rebuilding the Land of Israel.

To learn how could man speak to G-d, how could a mere finite mortal influence a transcending infinite plane and how does one know what to say?
