Yom HaShoah Shofar salute commemorating the 85th Anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising!

Scroll of Fire is a monument found in the hills, on the western outskirts of Jerusalem, Israel, and it commemorates Jewish history from The Holocaust until the Independence of Israel from the British.

The sculpture is made of bronze and is eight meters high. It is in the shape of two scrolls, a gesture to the Jewish nation being the "People of the Book". One of the scrolls describes the Holocaust and the other describes independence.

The Three Musketeers at the Kotel

The Three are Rabbi Yehuda Glick, famous temple mount activist, and former Israel Mk, and then Robert Weinger, the world's greatest shofar blower and seller of Shofars, and myself after we had gone to the 12 gates of the Temple Mount in 2020 to blow the shofar to ask G-d to heal the world from the Pandemic. It was a highlight to my experience in living in Israel and I put it on my blog each day to remember.

The articles that I include each day are those that I find interesting, so I feel you will find them interesting as well. I don't always agree with all the points of each article but found them interesting or important to share with you, my readers, and friends. It is cathartic for me to share my thoughts and frustrations with you about life in general and in Israel. As a Rabbi, I try to teach and share the Torah of the G-d of Israel as a modern Orthodox Rabbi. I never intend to offend anyone but sometimes people are offended and I apologize in advance for any mistakes. The most important psychological principle I have learned is that once someone's mind is made up, they don't want to be bothered with the facts, so, like Rabbi Akiva, I drip water (Torah is compared to water) on their made-up minds and hope that some of what I have share sinks in. Love Rabbi Yehuda Lave.

Yom HaShoah is a day to remember the six million Jewish people who died in the Holocaust

It is also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day in English¹. It is observed on the 27th day of Nisan in the Hebrew calendar, which corresponds to April or May in the Gregorian calendar²^,⁴. In 2023, it will begin in the evening of Monday, April 17th and end in the nightfall of Tuesday, April 18th²^,³^,⁴^,⁵.

Holocaust Remembrance Day, or Yom HaShoah, was inaugurated in 1951 as a day set aside to memorialize the six million Jews murdered during the Nazi reign of terror. The original proposal called for Yom HaShoah to be held on the fourteenth day of Nissan on the Jewish calendar, the anniversary of the Warsaw ghetto uprising (April 19, 1943).

Why do Jewish holidays start at nighttime?

According to the Torah, the story of creation in Genesis says "And it was evening, and it was morning day one", "And it was evening, and it was morning; the second day", thus night comes before day. So for the Jewish calendar all days begin at nightfall and end the next day at nightfall including holidays.
