The land of Israel is a main reason why God freed us from slavery in Egypt. However, there is a more important reason that God freed us. This other reason is that as slaves we had no freedoms, and therefore none of the responsibility that come with freedom. The only way for the Jewish people to develop was for them to experience freedom, and therefore have to live for themselves, taking on an extra level of responsibility.
