‘Beneath His sky, the wilderness outside,
God has another world that reaches wide,
‘Beyond the howling desert with its sand,
There waits beneath His stars the Promised Land.’
CH. N. BYALIK, 1896.

ZIONISM
ONE thing is to me certain, high above any doubt: the movement will continue. I know not when I shall die, but Zionism will never die.
THEODOR HERZL, 1898.
