Excerpt from At Sinai a Manual of Confirmation
This belief has been an inspiring conviction to the Jew through his entire history leading him to live for it and, when necessary, even to die for it. It still finds expression in some form upon the lip or in the mind Of the true Jew upon all Of his occasions Of gladness or gloom.
TO appreciate the greatness Of this command ment we need to remember that when it was given to the Israelites they were surrounded by peoples who, like the Egyptians, believed in many gods. The entire world was said to bedivided into countless departments over each Of which one or more gods ruled. There are peo ples who still have such a belief. Against this Judaism has always protested, as it does em phatically In this commandment, in the grand idea that all other beings are inferior to God and subject to Him.
