The Torah defines freedom, and prayer defines action.But if the dreamers and lovers of Zion had contented themselves with prayer and with the writings of Nahum Syrkin and A.D. Gordon, there would never have been a Jewish state.
It was not only the prayers and the writings, but also the actions - including those of the Irgun Tzva'i Leumi (the Irgun), the Lochmei Herut Yisrael (the Sternists of Lechi), and the Haganah - that contributed to the freedom of Israel.So it is about prayer and about action.
