The Creator will evidently show us that Israel cannot exist in exile, and will find no rest as the rest of the nations that mingled among the nations and found rest, and assimilated in them until no trace was left of them. Not so is the house of Israel. This nation will find no rest among the nations until it realizes the verse, “And from there you will seek the Lord your God, and you will find Him for you will demand Him with all your heart and all your soul.” (Baal HaSulam, article “Exile and Redemption,” “Harmony between Religion and the Law of Development or Blind Fate”).

Question: Why does he call it a sentence as a result of the judgment?

Answer: Because it is in this state when we are completely scattered, and divided, when we have no society, no country, no sense of something of ours that surrounds us, we come to realize that, in principle, that we are nothing and nobody, and from this state, we begin to rise.
