Reply To: What's the argument against having a Madina?

Abelleh: Yes, you certainly need to go on. The first pasuk mentioned might only be in force until the decree of galus. You will have to prove otherwise. The second pasuk makes no mention of our obligation of yishuv eretz yisrael at all. The Ramban makes no mention of a medina, and as for the Rambam see further in halacha gimel. So please go on.
