Eytan and Avi Goodfriend sugya

Quote: Avi says… You probably hate Israel if you do not like Jews.

S&T: Israel is the home of Jews so they are connected

M: Rabbi Yehoshuah Ben Levi Avi of Lod in Israel of the first generation says if they are connected, then it makes sense that you don't like the other if you already don't like one.

M Ukimtah: Rav Huna Eytan of Sura in Babylon in the second generation says what if you met just one Jew who you didn't like becuase of his personality but when you visited Israel you fell in love with the country?

S&T: Not all Jews are the same

M Ukimtah: Rabbi Avi Rav Chisda of Sura in Babylonia during the third generation says if they aren't all the same, then how do congregations survive?
