Young Israel

    And oh! if my young babe were born,
    And set upon the nurse’s knee,
    And I my self were dead and gone
    For a maid again I’ll never be.

    There is Israel, for us at least. What no other generation had, we have. We have Israel in spite of all the dangers, the threats and the wars, we have Israel. We can go to Jerusalem. Generations and generations could not and we can.
