	Encyclopedia: Yerida
		In the past decade nearly a million immigrants came to Israel from the former Soviet Union.
		Many Jews who emigrated to Israel have moved elsewhere, known as yerida ("descent" [from the Holy Land]), due to its economic problems or due to disillusionment with political conditions and the continuing Israeli-Palestinian conflict
		The waves of immigration to the United States at the turn of the 19th century, massacre of European Jewry during the Holocaust, and the foundation of the state of Israel (and subsequent flight of Jews from hostile Arab nations) all resulted in substantial shifts in the population centers of world Jewry during the 20th century.

	Sicha on Lech Lecha (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		So it sounds that this too was a yerida, and not an aliyah, and yet it is included in the parsha called Lech Lecha, which means to grow and to progress higher and higher.
		We are told that the reason for the golus, is that we should gather and collect and bring with us to the geulah, converts, which mean literal converts, and also the divine sparks that need to be brought back to holiness, they are also considered converts.
		The answer is that all this darkness that we see, all the yeridas that are happening, these are only externally true, it's only on the surface, underneath, the exact opposite is true.

		Yerida, of course, is the opposite of aliya, "ascent," or immigration to Israel, and the two words have been paired since talmudic times, aliya being the older of the two (it is already found in this sense in the biblical book of Ezra).
		Interestingly, their meaning of coming to, and leaving, the land of Israel does not seem to have originated in the value system they later came to imply — that is, in the belief that "ascending" to Israel is a positive act and "descending" from it a negative one.
		And yet long before modern times, the words aliya and yerida lost their topographical associations and became value-laden, "going up" to the land of Israel being considered a praiseworthy ascent in one's personal life, and "going down," the reverse.

	If I forget thee......: Aliyah vs Yerida
		Efforts must be made to keep our talented population here and to encourage those who have left to return.
		The root causes for an increase in yerida appear to be being dealt with as the economy makes the correct noises but additional steps must be taken by the government to find out why people are leaving and to solve these problems.
		Of the more than a million Olim who have arrive since 1989, some 100,000 have left - less than 10% - a success rate of 90+% is generally something to be proud of and it is important to see the positive side of things.

	israelinsider: The Jewish question revisited
		We are too comfortable, too content, too fat, to realize that we are contributing to their deaths every day.
		We American Jews are justifying Yerida (the leaving of Israel) by not making Aliya (moving to Israel).
		We are justifying the death of Israel by providing a viable and attractive alternative to the State of Israel right here in America.

		The rhetoric used with regard to such concepts as the 'ingathering of exiles', 'aliya', 'yerida' expresses the nature of the relationship between Israel as a homeland and its diaspora in the context of Israeli discourse.
		Immigration is an ideologically charged concept which is reflected in the on-going rhetoric: immigration is "aliya" (going up) while emigration is "yerida" (going down).
		This ideology and its supportive rhetoric have their roots in the pre-state period and have created a supportive mythology which has persisted to the present although "yerida" is presently accompanied by less derision than in the past.

		years when emigration or yerida was considered shameful, only a minority of Israelis now disapprove.
		As Israeli casualties continue to mount, the numbers of those contemplating yerida can only increase, as will the number of those who do in fact emigrate.
		This is precisely what Arafat has hoped to achieve by his campaign of terror.

		A dramatic rise in Yerida - emigration from Israel.
		When the Sabra sees nothing special in being Jewish why should he be different than the Sicilian or the Irishman or the Pole or all the rest who loved the lands of their birth but who did not hesitate to leave them, for new worlds of opportunity?
		One is thus left with one other reason to be a Jew.

		I admit that this approach does not seem to "lamdush" but the idea that there were eras in our history where the yeridas hadoros engendered a qualitative yerida in the profundity of klal yisroels grasp of the Torah is not a foreign idea.
		Thus, Rav Chaim Volozhiner explains the Mishna in Avos as follows: Moshe "keebail" Torah meysinai, Moshe accepted, meaning in its entirety, with a full grasp of the Torah, but it doesn't say and Yehoshua was "mikabel" from Moshe because Moshe's grasp of the Torah was qualitatively greater than Yehoshua's.
		However, if there is a profound yerida, then, as the Chazon Ish states, "haemes cheeyaiv osam", the truth of the vastly superior grasp of the previous generations obligated these great men to accept their words unconditionally.

	Chabad Talk - Jewish Forum - Even transgressions are part of Hashem's plan
		What is the source for this idea that says that the chet eitz hadas, the chorban bais hamikdash, etc., and the aveiras that generated them, are all part of Hashem's plan?
		I understand how this is the philosophical basis of "yerida l'tzorech aliya," but what is the source for it.
		But afterwards, if you sinned, it is because Hashem wanted you to experience that yerida for the sake of the greater aliyah that can follow.

		As I understand the sugya, all the proofs brought by R. Eliezer, up to and including the bat kol, are rejected as not being part of the halachic process (ein meviin raya min heharuv, ein meviin raya me'amat hamayim, etc.), which is an orthogonal issue to the relative authority of batei din of different periods.
