Happy Hanukkah! ✡️

The light of the Jewish people will never be extinguished.

 

"In 1931, a rabbi’s wife, Rachel Posner, photographed the family’s brass menorah on their windowsill in the northern port city of Kiel.

 

Opposite their apartment was the Nazi party’s regional headquarters with a large swastika flag hanging menacingly from the facade.

 

On the back of the snapshot Rachel wrote an inscription: “The flag says ‘death to Judaism,’ the light says ‘Judaism will live for ever.'”
