Jewish Identity


The secret of our existence is in our being "a people that dwell alone" (Numbers 23:9), a people that believes in the one G-d, and leads a life according to the one Torah, which is eternal and unchangeable.

Our independence of thought and conduct are not our weakness but our strength. Only in this way can we fulfill our function as imposed on us by the Creator, namely, to be a "kingdom of priests and a holy nation" (Exodus 19:6), and a merit to all humankind.
