There s none else. t s wrtten n the Thorah and the word s engraven upon our hearts: Hear 0 srael the s our God. The 3hma Ysroel adona elohenu adona echod. Are you fully convnced cf ths truth? Do you frmly beleve n t?._ What s the se.dond cardnal doctrne of our fath? God revealed Hs v1ll~ thru Hs serva:t:s the prophets. The Lav of Sna wll endure f()rever.

What s the thrd cardnal doctrne of our fath? God go verno and judges the world n justce and mercy. The soul s from God mmortal frep and accountable to God and destned for a hgher purer state of beng. God ro. s chosen the people of srael to make Hs name known to man and Hs kngdom wll one day be unversally establshed. non that day God wll be One and Hs name One. 11 ll the Sacred Wrtngs t s sad: 11 The Lord shall regn forever and ever thy God O Zon from generaton to generaton.

.... _... THE COMMANDMENTS. What are the Ten Commandments and what do they teach?. The Ten Commandments contan the essence of the dutes of man. They remnd us of the kndness of God who s a zealous God. They demand reverence for Hm and observance of Hs holy day. They teach us our duty towards our parents towards the lves and happness the property and honor of our fellow-men. They warn us to pre~erve our soul from greed and e1vy that we may rejoce n the good that falls to the lot of our neghbor. THE FRST COMMANDMENr: " AM THE LORD THY GOD beng the ntroducton to the Decalogue contans the cardnal truth of our fath namely that there s only One God governng the unverse v1hose la1s we must obey and to whose commands we must adhere. He gave us lberty. He protects us. He s our rock and support our staff and refuce.. THE SECOND COMMANDVENT S: 11 THOU SHALT HAVE NO OTHER GOD BEFORE :rvm." Ths law prescrbes every knd of dolatry and everythng s dolatry that draws us from the reat sprtual God of srael. We must not bow the head or bend the knee nor worshp before any creature of Hs h~nd be t ever 80 powerful for to God alone belongs our soul. He gudes our destnes and watches over us from the cradle to the grave. Ths command further admonshes us not to be eve n wtchcraft or n evl sprts nor should our belef be guded by superstton. God rules the world n justce and mercy and nothng happens to us unless He drects t. As a father loves and 1.Jatches over hs chldren so does God hold us all n Hs love and wsdom.. T!ll THRD COMMANDlENT S: "THOU GHALT NOT TAKE THE NAME OF THE LORD THY GOD UNTO FALSEHOOD. 11 Ths law commands us not to take Gods name lghtmndedly not to menton t n connecton wth anythng mproper or mpure not to blaspheme by usng t n unholy speech. The thrd word of Sna further commands us not to fear man more than God and not to do n secret what ve hould be ashamed of to do n publc. Wo s:1all not svl6ar falsely whch s a terrble crme. Even our yes or no should be guded by strct truth for God s ever present and falsehood s a11 a bomna to:l n Hs sght. V. HE FOURTH CDMMANDMENT 2.:S: "REMEMBER THE SABBATH TO KEEP!T HOLY. 11 The Sabbath s a blessng to the people of srael and a sgn between God and man. We must do no servle work on ths day but devote our heart and soul to the hgher objects of lfe. Therefore the prophet exclams: "f thou restran thy foot for the sake of the Sabbath dong no busness on my holy day and f thou call the Sabbath a delght and honor t n not dong thne own busness and speakng van words then shalt thou fnd delght n the Lord and wll cause thee to tre d upon the hgh places of the earth and wll cause thee to enjoy the nhertance of Jacob thw father." Cuba Famly Archves v. HE FFTH "OMMANDMENT S: 11 HONOR THY FAT EER AND THY. MOTHER. 11 Ths word of Sna teaches us that our parents are essentally God3 representatves on earth showng us the rght path
«-........ : that leads to vrtue and honor. n the same manner as we love God wth all our heart soul and mght so we must rejoce whenever an occason presents tself to prove our love and affecton for our dear parents. We must love and honor them and fnd our happness n the joy of those who lke guardan angels nursed shelded and protected us from our very nfancy. We must obey them v th a vllng heart and a cheerful soul. Then "father ar:d mother wll rejoce and she who has born thee wll be glad." V. THE SXTH COMMANDMENT S: 11 THOU SHA.LT NOT MURDER. 11 The lfe and health of our neghbor must be as sacred to us as our ovm and we must embrace every opportunty to save a human beng from danger whenever t les n our power. How sacred s lfe gven by God and v1hch He alone can take av.ay. Ths commar~dment also admonshes us not to njure man r_ hs honot or self-respect or do anythng whch mght shorten bs lfe or weaken hs health. Not n van dd Moses say: 11 cursed be he who sm teth hs neghbor secretly 11 V. THE SEVENTH COMMANDMENT S: "THOU SHALT NOT COMMT ADULTERY. 11 Vrtue and honor should govern our lves and thus keep from our household everythng v1hch undermnes our happness. The Bble says of the unchaste 11 The end s btter as wormwood and sharp as a t1:110-edged sword whle thou moa.nest as thy. end when thy flesh s comng to an end." Vrtue s the prce of recttude. n every temptaton of lfe we should remember the words of Joseph: 11 Hov1 can do ths great evl and sn aganst God?" V. THE EGHTH CDMM.A.NDMENT S: 11 T~OU SHALT NOT STEAL. 11 Ths means that we nus t not talrn anythng whch does not by rght belong to us. vve must not njure the nterest 0f others nor shall we borrow and not pay. We shall not wthhold the wages from the laborer. Ths law prohbts us from appropratng anothers thoughts or deas and usng them as our own. "Ye shall do no unrghteousness n mete-yard n weght or n measure." 11 f thou selleth aught of thl neghbors hand thou shalt not over-reach one the other. 11 The wcked borroweth and payeth not but the r...hteous s benefcent and g ve:bh. 11 X. 11 T:m NNTH 1..;0MMANDMENT S: THOUS SHALT NOT TESTFY AGANST Tlff NEGHBOR AS A FALSE WTNESS. 11 Ths law warns us to be very careful n speakng of our neghbor whose honor and far name must be sacred at our hands. Ve must not harm or malgn hm verbally or n vlr tng nor nduce others to do t for us. Above all when ve are called upon to testfy n a court of justce.. we shall speak the truth wthout fear or favor. "The hor~or of thy neghbor must be as sacred to thee as thne own." 11 Thou shalt not go up and down as a tale-hearer amongst thy people." A fathful wtness wll not le but a false wtness courtnntly uttereth fal8ehood. Cuba Famly Archves
" Tlll TENTH CO M:.tANDl\ll"N T S: 11 TH9U SHALT NOT r:ovet. 11 x. Ths s the fnest essence of pure relgon. Ths command admonshes us not to cast a longng glance at anythng whch ue do not possess. ~e must not pollute the purty of our beart by snful desres: JV" must avo~d envy and. false prde.

The Cotton States Exposton brought thousands of vstors to the young cty. On January 31 of that year the 27th Annual Conventon of the Amercan Womens Suffrage Assocaton was held wth Mss Susan B. Anthony as speaker. On August 9 the Broad Street vaduct was completed. Yet a stll more sgnfcant event was to take place that would cast ts nfluence on the thrvng metropols for many years to come. On September 1 1895 Dr. Davd Marx arrved n Atlanta to become rabb of the growng Hebrew Benevolent Congregaton. Steppng from the tran at the old Unon Staton the 23 year old mnster fell n love wth the bustlng cty that had called hm from hs rabbnate at Temple Emanuel n Brmngham Ala. Somehow the youthful clergyman felt at once that hs destny was nter-woven wth the fate of ths brave communty that only a few years before had rsen from the ashes of the cvl war. The young rabb was gven a warm and hearty welcome by the members of hs new congregaton and ther Chrstan neghbors. He mmedately set out on hs dutes and hs nfluence for good was soon felt not only among hs own consttutents but throughout the entre cty. From the very begnnng hs nterests and devoton transcended the boundares of hs congregaton and encompassed every worthwhle undertakng n the communty. Wthn a short tme Atlanta had come to know and love Dr. Davd Marx and as the years passed ths affecton and esteem was to grow and deepen. The Hebrew Benevolent Temple was located then at the corner of Garnett and Forsyth Streets n a towerng structure bult n 1875. Prevous to that tme the congregaton whch was formed n 1867 had conducted ts relgous servces n rented halls and prvate homes. Cuba Famly Archves

The populaton of Atlanta con tnued to ncrease however and the congregaton soon outgrew ts quarters. Under Dr. Marxs leadershp plans were made for a new buldng and by 1900 a suffcent sum had been rased to secure optons on sutable stes. A plot of land at the comer of Pryor and Rchardson Streets was selected and constructon began mmedately. On Frday evenng September 12 1902 the mpressve new Temple was dedcated before a large and dstngushed gatherng that flled the edfce to overflowng. Hundreds unable to gan admttance wated reverently outsde. The new buldng provded ample oppor tunty for the congregatons steady growth and expanson. Specal quarters were provded for the relgous school whch Dr. Marx had fostered and developed. n the meantme on October 15 1901 the popular young relgous leader had marred Mss Eleanor Rosenfeld daughter of Abraham and Emly Rosenfeld poneer settlers n ths cty and on January 29 1903 ther son Davd was born. Dr. Marx contnued n ever ncreasng measure to devote hs treless energes to the mprovement of hs congregaton and the betterment of manknd. Under hs nspred drecton the Temple gradually assumed a poston of leadershp among southern Jewry and Dr. Marxs repu taton and scope of nfluence constantly wdened. Durng 190102 he became an edtoral wrter for the "Jewsh Amercan" publshed n Detrot. n 1908 he was apponted to the edtoral board of "Young srael" and n 1907 he was made a specal wrter for the Atlanta Journal.
