En efecto, en su poema Despierta, pueblo mío, Ialag estableció la célebre máxima: «Sé un judío en tu casa, y un hombre en la calle». En su artículo «Iremos con jóvenes y ancianos» propuso el apotegma bíblico de «Beit Iaakov Lejú ve-Neljá» (Casa de Jacob, ved e iremos) cuyas siglas dieron nombre a los protagonistas de la primera alía, o inmigración judía a Palestina en 1882.

be a jew in your tent and a person when you leave. "..guarda a Alá en tu corazón y sé uno más fuera de El.."

Language variant: ..lleva tu Fe en tu corazón y sé uno más en el exterior."

Explanation:
Se refiere a aquellos Judíos que consideran que el ser Judío(valga la redundancia) es un don especial dado a unos pocos y todo aquel que no lo sea es una "persona" y no un "elegido de Dios".el "resto" es el mundo exterior(aquellos que no lo son),al que deben integrarse a pesar de sus creencias.Se basa principalmente en la exacerbación de la Fe Judía sobre cualquier otra fe.

Explanation:
Have a look at following for explanation:
In Europe they had performed the rituals, for there was parental and social pressure to do so, and it was easier to live as a Jew than to violate community norms. But in New York, the reverse was true. There was pressure to grab a (probably non-kosher) sandwich, to work on the Sabbath, to skip a prayer here and there. And as the ritual pillars began to collapse, they brought down with them the whole structure of faith for many new American Jews.

Finally, the American Jewish community cannot have been unaffected, in its religious behavior, by its own argument that a secular society was a safer one for Jews. If religious divisions within the society threatened Jews, how could it be helpful to stress them by ritual practices that set the Jew apart from his neighbor? In the mid-1880s, the East European poet J. L. Gordon, a champion of the Haskalah, told his community that the Enlightenment now allowed Jews to join civil society. The formula was to "Be a Jew in your tent and a ‘mensch’ [man] when you go out." But Gordon did not foresee that those who stopped being Jews in the street and on the job almost inevitably would stop being Jews in their tents as well. An end to rituals that interfered with the rhythms of American life might soon undercut faith as well, for who could wish to believe that he was shirking and doing wrong? Far easier, and more natural, to shirk not only the practice but the beliefs that required it. To enjoy the bounty of America fully, to mute the distinctiveness that had always brought danger to Jews, and to contribute to the building of a secular society where Enlightenment values would be safer, all seemed to lead away from traditional Judaism as it had been practiced for a thousand years.
