To answer the above thread topic-a yeshiva education is worth our heritage. In my profession, the MAIN distinction between those who have a solid link to their Jewish Heritage, and those that worry daily whether their kids will marry someone Jewish, is the education they received.
The overwhelming majority of jewish children that receive a jewish education, and I would venture to say, 99.9% of those children that receive an authentic Torah education do not have to worry about the future lineage of their family.
I don’t have enough room here to expound on the countless stories I have of families who lament over the fact that they didn’t send their children to a Jewish Torah day school. The regret is enormous, and the pain they live with is sometimes immeasurable.
My humble suggestion to those out their who are eeking out the money to pay for tuition, and especially those that cut back on cleaning help and extras, the dividends for that are eternal. It’s worth every ounce of effort, and if we put forth the effort truly l’shem shomayim Hashem will make sure that we will give the guarantors of His Torah that which we promised thousands of years ago.
