Immanuel Bernstein: The halachah states that although acquisition normally requires some form of act, there are times when something can be acquired just by looking at it. Firstly He told Avraham to look at the land, thereby acquiring the spiritual connection to and ownership of Eretz Yisrael. Since this aspect of the land was ownerless, Avraham could acquire it through looking at it.
Eliezer Melamed: Torah guides us to invest our efforts in planting trees in order to root ourselves in the Land through permanent means.
Eliezer Melamed: He should live in Israel whether it is in a city where the majority of its inhabitants are not Jewish or where the majority of its citizens are Jewish.
BOB FRYER: There are about 4,450 Jews living in Pasco County. If you are looking for the utopian Jewish community, it is certain you won't find it here.
Desirée M. Mondesir: Prophets are here to rule over kingdoms and nations (again, depending on their particular rank - your kingdom could be a neighborhood or it could be an empire)
Ja'Net Defell: From the folks I know that have moved South, it's just an easier, less stressful life.
