Throughout the saddened world todayin the Diasporaas the Hebrew language calls it. desolate. sad. and weary people are treading their way wearily and painfully to their ancient homeland In Israel. buoyed up by the hope and freedom that this new State portends. No one is refused admission. All are welcomed. Truly. the present State of Israel is following the ancient biblical pronouncement: Love ye therefore the stranger. for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. (Deuteronomy x: 19.) So many centuries have elapsed. that the new immigrants coming to Israel are like strangers. As we see the strangers and the homeless coming into Israel today. I would like to conclude my remarks with these words that are found on the base of the Statue of Liberty in the harbor of New York City.
