Abraham a founding patriarch they see
Moses made the law
No mixing meat with cheese
They pray dusk, noon and dawn
_______________________
Jews have the Torah
Only five books to believe
Sacrificial light from Menorah
Scrolls in Qumran called Dead Sea
______________________
Ten Commandments no sin
Sabbath is holy
Honor mother
No adultery
Honor father
______________________
Temple destroyed
Temple rebuilt
Anne's diary tells the tale
Jews never gave; up never did fail
__________________________
Israel stands today for
Millions mayby Five alive
Judaism in the states
Million mayby six are alive
_________________________
Happy Days Rosh Hashana
No food for Yom Kipper
Creation of th World with manna
Must fast lips to be zippered
____________________________
Girls do the bat mitzvah
bar miztvah is for boys
Selah Selah Selah
All serious no toys
________________________
Never finished is their faith
Jews celbrate memories of past fate
A whole week for Passover
A world remembered for goodness sake!
