As you watched the video, what were your thoughts and feelings about Yad Vashem, Jerusalem’s Holocaust Museum and Memorial grounds?

It is a hard place to see, but it is necessary to remember. It also shows God’s hand at preserving the Jewish people, because without Him they would have been wiped out.

I believe it is a sad place, but a place that must exist

My adult son once visited the holocaust museum in Washington and called home overwhelmed with emotion. I believe it is very important that we share in the events of history and be reminded of what happened to the Jewish people.

Such monuments are important for the whole world as a reminder of what could and did happen to God’s own chosen people in their disobedience. And, his remaining involvement in their lives through the memorials.

When you really consider the magnitude of the holocaust it is amazing that the state of Israel still exists. It shows God’s hand and involvement even though he was far from his people at that moment.

As horrible as the holocaust was, I think its important to have such a memorial there for visitors to learn from it and remember what happened.
