Nor should you remain alone and isolated; join yourself to a community, by which alone your work can be made universal and eternal in its results; on the one hand, the congregation, on the other, the state which harbors and protects you. Living thus, you will contribute your share to sanctifying the Divine name; you will become monument and witness to the sway of God and the duty of man; your Israelitish and non-Israelitish brethren as well, will derive enlightenment and courage from your example, and will learn to serve the only God as their God, and to love Him with all their hearts, with all their souls, and all their might. Thus will you be individually and in your restricted circle what it is the mission of your people to be everywhere and forever.

"Build houses and dwell therein; plant gardens and eat the fruit thereof; take wives unto yourselves, and beget sons and daughters, and take wives for your sons and give your daughters in marriage that they bear sons and daughters, and that you multiply there and diminish not. And seek the peace of the city whither I have exiled you, and pray for it to the Lord, for in its peace there will be unto you peace."
