1) An identity and tradition. Jews have an unbroken tradition stretching back for 3800 years to our founder, Abraham.
2) A life. Some might consider the laws of Judaism as being too much, but for us they are a life, with happy festivals, structured family life, daily activities, and a sense of purpose.
3) Community; friends. Every Jewish community provides mutual help, daily and weekly classes in Torah-subjects, and community activities.
4) Eternity.
Consider this famous quote from Mark Twain:
"The Egyptians, the Babylonians and the Persians rose, filled the planet with sound and splendor, then faded and passed away; the Greeks and Romans followed and made a vast noise, and they were gone; other people have sprung up, and they sit in twilight now, or have vanished. The Jew saw them all, survived them all. What is the secret of his immortality?"
