Yehuda Bauer: A Holocaust Scholar's Warning to the World

Yehuda Bauer, one of the most prominent Holocaust scholars of our time, passed away on October 18, 2024, at the age of 98. Born in Prague in 1926, Bauer fled with his family just before the outbreak of World War II. He dedicated his life to the study of the Holocaust, becoming a professor and later an academic adviser at Yad Vashem, Israel’s World Holocaust Remembrance Center.

Yehuda Bauer, a pioneering Holocaust scholar and moral voice, dedicated his life to ensuring the world never forgets the atrocities of the Holocaust. His powerful reflections serve as a reminder that history must not only be remembered but acted upon. Bauer’s work has been vital in addressing the rise of modern-day antisemitism and teaching the world about the dangers of hatred and bigotry.

In today’s world, where antisemitism is once again on the rise, Bauer’s message is more relevant than ever. For Christian Women For Israel, Bauer’s teachings offer a clear call to stand...

Espionage: Esther’s Role and Israel’s Legacy of Intelligence

The story of Esther can be seen as an ancient example of intelligence gathering, with striking parallels to modern espionage events in Israel today. As a Jewish queen in the Persian Empire, Esther was in a unique position to gather critical information that would save her people from destruction. She used her access to the royal court to uncover the plot of Haman, who sought to annihilate the Jews. Esther’s bravery, combined with her strategic use of intelligence, allowed her to expose this threat and ultimately save the Jewish people, making her story one of the earliest examples of using secret information to protect a nation.

Fast forward to today, espionage remains a critical part of Israel’s survival. Modern Israeli intelligence agencies such as Mossad and Shin Bet have been instrumental in defending the nation against numerous threats. Israel has a long history of covert operations and intelligence work, whether it’s gathering information about enemy...
