概要

Dedicated in loving memory of my nephew, Yishai Elyakim Urbach, who fell in Gaza one year ago, a few weeks after setting out to build his own home.

Tehillim 127:1 "Unless God builds the house, those who build it labor in vain."

Human beings cannot truly build alone. What we build by ourselves, the psalmist suggests, cannot ultimately endure.

And yet one of the most beloved songs sung in Israel on Yom Ha’Atzma’ut insists: I built a house in the Land of Israel.” Human initiative—human courage, labor, and creativity—stands at the heart of the Zionist ethos. Even in religious communities where the day is marked by the recitation of Hallel, a prayer of gratitude to God, the name of the day itself—Yom Ha’Atzma’ut, Independence Day—centers the human story.
