Jerusalem’s world-renowned Holocaust museum, Yad Vashem, takes its name from the above Biblical verse. Yeshayahu articulates Hashem’s promise that even those who are unable to have sons and daughters will be memorialized in Yerushalayim by their “everlasting name.” According to its mission statement, the Yad Vashem museum, “safeguards the memory of the past and imparts its meaning for future generations.” Yad Vashem has collected and memorialized the names of over four million Jewish victims of Nazi persecution, and aims to persist until all 6,000,0000 names are recovered. The museum is often a first stop for visitors to the Jewish State, because to appreciate the State of Israel, one must understand the tragedy of the Holocaust. Tens of thousands of elderly Holocaust survivors are currently living in Israel. Many of these survivors are left without family and do not have the necessary means to provide for themselves. This Jewish New Year, warmly embrace these heroes by sending them a personalized gift of tea and honey.
