To be a jew in today’s world

Resumen

What is it to be a Jew in today’s world? It is first of all to be part of the human species, one and indivisible. But it is also to share a common inheritance of their own: first, the Jewish religious tradition, that is expressed and fulfilled in a very different way but in which all Jews recognize themselves. And simultaneously to inherit a millennial history that carves its identity essence, handed down from generation to generation. But history indelibly marks peoples and the Jewish people are no exception. This text tries to show how the geographic, political, civilizational and cultural space where we are located influences decisively in the Jewish character and ends up being part of its «interior statue».
