Hi,
“[Psalms 87:5 says:] And regarding Zion it will be said: A person and a person have been born there, and Gd will establish it above.
"Rabbi Meisha, grandson of Rabbi Yehoshua ben Levi, explained this passage: This refers to a person born in Zion, or a person who hopes to see Zion.
"Abayye said: One of them [Israelis] is worth two of us [Babylonians].”
(Talmud, Ketuvot 75a)
Have a great day,
Mordechai
