This autonomous institution became the forerunner of the political structure of the nascent Jewish state, and its leaders – David Ben-Gurion among them – emerged as Israel’s future political elite. Israel succeeded as a nation, with a vibrant and sometimes obstreperous parliamentary life, precisely because its leaders used this opportunity.
这个自治机构成为了新生的以色列国的政治结构的前身，而它的领导人，其中就有大卫·本-古理安将成为以色列未来的政治精英。以色列人成功地建立起了一个国家，并且有了一个活跃、有时有点喧闹的议会，正是因为领导人抓住了这个机遇。
