Omer 2025 Day 28

Day 28: Remember for Life: Holocaust Survivors' Stories of Faith and Hope edited by Brad Hirschfield
Malchut in Netzach, Leadership in Endurance


The omer ends every year with a celebration of Torah learning on Shavuot. From this Shavuot to the next, I hope you'll take the opportunity to embrace your own personhood of the book (so to speak) by reading more, either from the works I'm highlighting here, or your list of books you've been meaning to get to. But in the spirit of Torah and peoplehood, I strongly urge you to add Remember for Life to your regular Shabbat routine. Don't worry - it's a small book and a quick read. The book offers a short story (usually just a page) from a Holocaust survivor, and is meant to be read once a week to supplement your Torah study. Each story illustrates a theme from the week's Torah portion, connecting the enduring wisdom of the Torah with incredible stories of resilience.
