In the past, most Jews lived in countries that made it very difficult to do our service of G-d. Nowadays, most Jews live in countries with kind governments, starting with the United States, with the biggest and most established Jewish community, which helps Jews reach inner Redemption in their service of G-d and do the work to bring the ultimate Redemption, and this treatment has spread to other countries. Even Russia, which used to limit the Jews’ freedom to observe the Torah and to leave the country, now allows Jews to observe the Torah and leave the country, and even helps them move to the Holy Land. This is a prelude to the nations of the world helping the Jews go from exile to the Holy Land in the Redemption through Moshiach!
