A crowd of Jewish prisoners huddle around the menorah at the Westerbork transit camp in the Netherlands, in an image at the Yad Vashem archives. More than 100,000 Jews were ultimately deported from Westerbork to camps like Auschwitz, Sobibor and Bergen-Belsen.

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004. You can contact me at: IsraelMatzav at gmail dot com

קֵץ, שָׂם לַחֹשֶׁךְ, וּלְכָל-תַּכְלִית, הוּא חוֹקֵר, אֶבֶן אֹפֶל וְצַלְמָוֶת
He made an end to darkness, and every end He fathoms-a stone of darkness and the shadow of death.
Iyov (Job) 28:3
