A Case Study: The Origins of Yom Hashoah

Soloveitchik based his opposition to the fast and memorial day on a kina that is recited on Tisha B’: Tisha B’Av, the ninth day of the Hebrew month of Av, is the traditional day of Jewish mourning commemorating destruction. The date was selected because, according to Ta’anit, five misfortunes befell the Jewish people on that day: Five events befell out ancestors on the seventeenth of Tamuz and five on the Ninth of Av... On the Ninth of Av, it was decreed upon our ancestors that they would not be allowed to enter the Land of Israel, the First and Second temples were destroyed, Beitar was captured, The city of Jerusalem was plowed over. From when the month of Av starts, we reduce joy. (Mishnah Ta’anit 4:6) One of the customs on Tisha B’Av is the recitation of kinnot, dirge like prayers which mourn the destruction of the Temples. There is one kina called, Mi yiten roshi mayim (Would That My Head Were Water), which describes the destruction of German Jewish communities during the Crusades in the eleventh century. It was one of the first kinnot added to commemorate a tragedy other than the five stipulated in the Mishnah. The kina’s author was the early twelfth century Rabbi Kolonymos son of Yehudah. Kolonymos was from Mainz, Germany, one of the destroyed communities which is mentioned in the kina. In the kina, Rabbi Kolonymos explains, “The deaths of the leaders (in the Crusades) was as worthy of mourning as the destruction of the Temple…It is not appropriate to add a fast day. Instead the day of Tisha B’Av is to be used to commemorate such tragedies in .” This kina echoes a position presented by Rashi who wrote in his commentary of II Chronicles 35:25: (emphasis added) and they made them a statute: When any grief or weeping befalls them, for which they and weep, they mention this grief with it. An example is the Ninth of Av, in which we recite lamentations for those slain in the persecutions that occurred in our times. They will similarly bewail the day of Josiah’s death. An example is (Jud. 11:39f.): “and it became a statute in Israel, etc. to lament the daughter of Jephthah the Gileadite, four days in a year.” Even though the communities were not destroyed on Tisha B’Av, according to both Kolonymos and Rashi, it was the appropriate date to commemorate their destruction. For Soloveitchik, the precedent was clear. According to Jewish tradition any commemoration for the victims of the Nazis in Europe should be incorporated into Tisha B’Av.

Did either Rashi or Rabbi Kolonymos intend to prohibit for all time any day commemorating Jewish tragedy? Does the fact that additional fast days of mourning were indeed established during the Crusades and after other Jewish tragedies in the Middle Ages create a precedent for a new day of mourning for a different tragedy? Is the existence of a kina recited on Tisha B’Av enough to create a halakhic precedent? Does the prohibition only refer to adding a fast day or any day of mourning? Yitzchok Zev Halevi Soloveitchik

A Case Study: The Origins of Yom Hashoah

“Our forebears have dedicated days of fast and mourning to certain events, such as the 20th of etc., which cannot be compared in any shape to this modern tragedy. We must choose a significant day which will reflect the days of slaughter and the days of uprising that took place in the month of Nisan. Therefore, the House Committee has chosen the end of the month of Nisan...during which many sacred communities were destroyed by the ancestors of the Nazis, the Crusaders. The commemoration of the victims of the Holocaust is an issue in and of itself. I hope we will do so when the people of Israel will dwell secure in our country, and by the grace of God, we will achieve a normalized state. ...The people of Israel have always excelled in the commemoration of their departed. Our forebears carried Joseph’s coffin 40 years in the desert in order that he buried in the Land of Israel. Let us commemorate the memory of our martyrs and the future generations will pass down from generation to generation the glory and honor of our martyrs, and from them they will draw strength and courage to continue the chain of generations. Our martyrs have a significant part in the building of our people and the land. And we ask with pain gripping our hearts: Why didn’t our dear and beloved ones live to see their hopes and dreams, from which they dedicated their lives, come to be? ...Honored Knesset: We too have seen a cemetery before us, a graveyard of six million of our sisters and brothers, and perhaps by the merit of their blood spilled like water, we achieved a state and the beginning of redemption, as in the words of the prophet spoken from the hills of Zion: ‘And when I passed by you, and saw you wallowing in your blood, I said unto you: In your blood live, yea , I said unto you: In your blood live.’” Rabbi Mordechai Nurock (shown in photo), Member of Knesset and Holocaust survivor addressing the Knesset on April 12, 1951 Quoted in: Berger, Alan L. Ed., Bearing Witness to the Holocaust, 1930-1939, Lewiston, NY: The Edwin Mellen Press, p. 288.

DespitePalestine the fact Post that, November the resolution 27, 1942 was passed in 1951, no formal mandate for commemorating the remembrance day emerged. In August 1953, the Knesset created Yad Vashem as the official Holocaust remembrance authority and tasked it to “promote a custom of joint remembrance of the heroes and victims.” It took until April 1955 for the Knesset to pass a law creating Yo m Hashoah (“Holocaust Memorial Day”) and until 1959 to implement the law creating the national holiday.

A Case Study: The Origins of Yom Hashoah

Despite the law being fixed in 1959, there is still opposition to the creation of Yom Hashoah among some religious leaders until today. In August 1977, Menachem Begin, shortly after becoming Prime Minister actually led an effort to abolish Yom Hashoah. Begin wanted to fold honoring the Ghetto fighters into Yom Ha’atzmaut and memorializing those who perished into Tisha B’av. His efforts met with little support. In 2005, the UN General Assembly designated January 27th as International Holocaust Remembrance Day. The date was chosen because it was the day that Auschwitz was liberated in 1945. Many communities also mark November 9th, the anniversary of
