The yetzer harah, the evil inclination, blocks the directives of the neshama which emanate from one's intellect, stopping if from entering the heart and the middos which lead to deeds The mitzvah of ‫ואהבת‬ ‫ את ה' אלקיך בכל לבבך‬is nothing less that circumcising the orlah of one's heart thereby subjugating one's desires to those of Hashem. In that sense, in Eretz Yisrael the earthly dense orlah of nature which conceals the consciousness of Hashem's presence and intervention in creation everywhere else, is removed and it is as if Eretz Yisrael is circumcised, making Hashem more easily accessible and attainable. He was born without an orlah, he removed the orlah from his heart, he removed his yetzer harah, he defeated the root of Orlah of the Pelishtim nation by killing Galiyas, he removed two hundred orlahs from the Pelishtim, and he removed the orlah of makom which was covering all these years the future makom of the Beis Hamikdash. It was when Avraham fulfilled the mitzvah of Milah in the category of nefesh on his body, that it immediately triggered the necessity to achieve the same action in makom Eretz Yisrael, to circumcise and remove the orlah of Sodom from within it. When Am Yisrael does not keep the Torah and mitzvos they are chased out of the Land of Eretz Yisrael for although they fulfilled the physical Milah on their bodies they failed to circumcise their hearts from the orlah that resides there. Why did the Hashgacha have it that this special royal neshamah of Dovid and Moshiach was heavenly navigated to dwell in Sodom through Lot, a city which was completely destroyed because of its evil, spiritual bankruptcy and waywardness? When the final geulah will come Hashem promises ‫ ומל ה' אלקיך את לבבך‬that Hashem will perform a circumcision on our hearts and no more will we desire anything that opposes Hashem's will. The explanation to this cryptic message is that in Lot was nestled the neshamah of Dovid Hamelech and the future Moshiach as Dovid's great grandmother was Ruth who descended from Lot's daughter. Eretz Yisrael has a quality of spirituality more than any other place on earth because ‫ עיני ה' אלקיך בה‬Hashem's personal presence can be felt and experienced there. Dovid was the example
