I Am A Jew
I am a Jew because, born of Israel, and having lost her, I have felt her live again in me, more loving than myself.
I am a Jew because, born of Israel and having regained her, I wish her to live after me, more living than myself.
I am a Jew because the faith of Israel demands of me no abdication of the mind.
I am a Jew because the faith of Israel requires of me all the devotion of my heart.
I am a Jew because in every place where suffereing weeps, the Jew weeps.
I am a Jew because every time when despair cries out, the Jew hopes.
I am a Jew because the promise of Israel is the universal promise.
I am a Jew because, for israel, the world is not yet completed: people are completing it.
