From Darkness to Light
An image and a story which I missed at the time of Holocaust Memorial Day but have now picked up courtesy of the Jewish Chronicle's website.
This image shows the outstretched arm of 93-year-old Holocaust survivor Hershel Herskovic as he received his life saving coronavirus jab from a British army medic in the same arm which 76 years ago he received his prisoner number tattoo at the Auschwitz death camp.
The picture was posted online by his son David, who tweeted it with a quotation from the Torah (Old Testament,)
“And I will redeem you with an outstretched arm”.
and the theme for this year's Holocaust Memorial Day commemoration, "From Darkness to Light."
