This was very well put. I appreciate Mr. Hummel's choice to start by explaining the modern situation before comparing it to the biblical situation. From what I have consumed, it is usually in reverse order with the biblical story being told first. This is a good choice because the NZC is trying to build a new modern Zionist and so they must promote the new modern zionist stories. But, at the same time, it doesn't really matter all that much which is told first because they are both the same story. We are forever leaving Egypt until we are home. Chag Pesach sameach!
