What is the Secret of our People's Survival? By Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson, The Lubavitcher Rebb »
Purim teaches us the age-old lesson, which has been verified even most recently, to our sorrow, that no manner of assimilationism, not even such which is extended over several generations, provides an escape from the Hamans and Hitlers; nor can any Jew sever his ties with his people by attempting such an escape.
On the contrary: Our salvation and our existence depend precisely upon the fact that “their laws are different from those of any other people.”
