Text Of Covenant

As we approach the 2 1 s t century,
we pause to celebrate and rededicate
ourselves to the enduring ties that
bind us together as one people.
For generations, Jews throughout
the world shared the dream of a home-
land for the Jewish people. Together
we turned that dream into reality
through the creation of the modern
State of Israel, the historic homeland
of the Jewish people, which we cele-
brate now, in its 50th anniversary year.
We embrace a common vision of car-
ing for each other; of assuring a vibrant
Israel; of enhancing Klal Yisrael through
the building-of dynamic Jewish commu-
nities that span the seas; of reaching out
to Jews wherever they are and strength-
ening their connection to the Jewish
people; of dedicating ourselves to the
ideals of Jewish Unity and mutual
respect; and of supporting those princi-
ples that have sustained our Identity
from the giving of the Torah until today.
Today, we rededicate ourselves to
strengthening the links between us by
creating personal relationships and
active involvements that will serve to
draw us closer to one another.
For us, our children and our chil-
dren's children, we rededicate ourselves
to the spiritual and historic centrality
of the State of Israel and to one anoth-
er. We affirm the values that have sus-
tained us for centuries: belief in one
God; respect for the infinite value of
human life; the goal of peace; the spe-
cial responsibility of Jews to each
other; the shared obligation of Tikkun
Olam — to help repair the world; the
concepts of Klal Yisrael and Ahavat
Yisrael — Jewish peoplehood and the
love of that people, which has sus-
tained us to reach this cherished day.
Am Yisrael Chai!
