Hypothetical question for everyone to ponder.

Here is a hypothetical question for everyone to ponder.

“Let us assume the Three Oaths (Ketubot 111a) are actually a halacha applicable today and the creation of Medinat Yisrael was a violation of the Oaths.” (A view which I do not hold)

Okay, we and those before us have “sinned” by violating said Oaths. So what should we do now? Leave Eretz Yisrael and move to Chutz L’Aretz? “Absolutely not, because according to that same Gemara, one is not allowed to leave E”Y.”

Whether wrong or not, it appears that Hashem has given his approval to return to the land, b’di’avad.

Which leads me to ask, what other examples in our history did the nation or individual Jews violate the will of Hashem, only to later be judged as acting correctly.

I think I found an example. In Shmuel I, the nation says to Shmuel “תְּנָה־לָּ֥נוּ מֶ֖לֶךְ..”

Hashem tells Shmuel

”…כִּי־אֹתִ֥י מָאֲס֖וּ מִמְּלֹ֥ךְ עֲלֵיהֶֽם”

As a consequence the rule of a human king from the House of David becomes the foundation of Jewish nationalism, which will culminate, G-d willing soon, in the arrival of Mashiach ben David.
