Was Moshe Rabbeinu ever in Eretz Yisrael? It’s not as simple as it sounds. Rav Shlomo Katz explores the spiritual and halachic status of עבר הירדן המזרחי—the eastern side of the Jordan River—conquered before we ever entered the land proper. Can mitzvot tied to the land be fulfilled there? Can you force someone to move from east to west? Why couldn’t the Mishkan dwell there? Through midrash, halacha, and the longings of Moshe himself, we uncover the deeper meaning of why we came home—not just to any land, but to a מקום שכינה.
