Yom HaShoah begins this week on Wednesday evening, April 27th, 2022. First officially commemorated in the Holy Land in 1951, its observance was enshrined in Israel national law by the Knesset in April 1959. Held annually on the 27th day of Nisan, unless that date coensides with a Sabbath, this day of mourning and memory honors the six million Jews murdered by the Nazis in the Holocaust, known as the "Shoah" in Hebrew.     For almost a century, the words "never again" have been used as a rallying cry for those who belong to or stand with the Jewish people. As Emily Burack of JTA explained in a 2018 article,"never again" carries deep meaning when one considers the tragedy of the Holocaust. Isaac Lamdan, the Hebrew poet, may have initiated the current use of the phrase when he wrote "Never shall Masada fall again!" in 1927. The Lord's loving kindnesses indeed never cease, for His compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. "The Lord is my portion," says my soul, "therefore I have hope in Him." (Lamentations 3: 22-24).  -Trey Graham is a pastor and radio host in Texas who leads unique tours of Christian pilgrims to study the Bible in Israel.
