But Judaism provides a multitude of ways to help us know how to act morally and to motivate us to do so. It thus increases the probability that Jews can be the holy people that G-d expects of us: “Indeed, all the earth is Mine, but you shall be to Me a Kingdom of priests and a holy nation” (Exodus 19:6).
