Now the queslKJh arises what^; type of education must we give our =:«bttdrpn.:todayi%The-answer is our ' education must propound Judiasm, 'i that is to say, to make the child-Into a fully fconscious- Jew, one who will be bound to the Jewish: people body and soul, who will" live the , "Tanath'' and Chumash and be devoted to their p^nciples, one who will be devoted to God, to his/people, an^ tp his history.'
ijaeh nation perpetuates its own language and the time has nbw. coipe yiriien-| every Jew must take c'ognizance of ^liis fact. The heroic* struggle in Israel, the striking! morale of; the people, the strategic . arid political victories achieved during the i>ast three years should serve as a* tremendous incentive to, us in this country to appreciate and evaluate the Tole thdi we must play in reviying the Hebrew langni-age;. We must instill in the children the pure-and basic nation-: alistic thought because Israelis the ' birth place pf the Jewish people, the; land of Tanach and- Chumash, the; Zion of the Sidur, the refuge of ; our harassed \ and persecu^d people and a' national home for-those Jews wh.p need and wish it.
For' a people to live and progress and remain independent/it niuBt possess thjreeimpiortc-nt attributes, a homeland, a language and; a religion. The Jewish religion isf the Mosaic Law, the language, isji' Hebrew and nbw we have the'^^ State of Israel. In order to raise our children as good Canadians,;, they must also be versed ;and fam-: iliar with their own language and*i their own religion. To understands the significance of the Jewish-state, can only be done through the Hebrew. Schools, Hebrew education' gave the impetus to the Jewish: State. There, would be no Jewish'. State without it.
