When Ben-Gurion proclaimed these words, he uttered the most consequential sentence spoken by a Jew in 2,000 years. In this new course from Tikvah—the first of its kind in English—Dr. Martin Kramer takes you on a journey back to the harrowing days of 1948, when in the middle of a war, Israel's founders wrote the state's most important document: The Declaration of Independence.  [START YOUR COURSE TODAY]( [8bbd6d4c-837d-47e3-80b1-b8a945661a83.png]( [Sholem Aleichem's Tevye the Dairyman](  The Broadway hit Fiddler on the Roof and its star, Tevye the Dairyman, are among the most beloved cultural icons in America and the world. But long before Fiddler, Tevye was the protagonist of Yiddish writer Sholem Aleichem's greatest short stories. And in Tikvah's free online course, taught by master teacher of Jewish literature Professor Ruth Wisse, you'll get to know Tevye, his five daughters, and their suitors as you never have before. You'll laugh with Tevye, cry with Tevye, and appreciate anew what this simple country Jew can teach us today.  [START YOUR COURSE TODAY]( [ac66663d-535b-4a36-9d23-7c8afb5268f4.png](  [7585d92f-34fb-4347-b000-3deb6f876747.png](  [ea81e6d4-e5a5-4a88-bcc9-c712b84e511d.png]( This email was sent to {EMAIL} [why did I get this?](    [unsubscribe from this list](    [update subscription preferences]( Tablet Magazine · P.O.
