Parashat Toldot
Presented By: Rav Mordechai Gershon Written by: Yehuda Gold

In Parashat Toldot, the Malbim explains that the “Shechina” resides in the Land of Israel.

Question
Does the “Shechina” resides only in the Land of Israel or wherever Am Yisrael resides?

Answer
The Shechina never leaves Am Yisrael. When Am Yisrael is exiled, the Shechina goes into exile with them. However, there is a substantive difference between the inspiration of the Shechina in the Land and outside the Land.
