The Song of Resilience: A Pesach Melody and the Door to Hope

“Rabbi is there a date set for the arrival of Messiah? Awaiting the signal for Salvation by
Resurrection!!”  Lazer sang the song every Pesach during Seder meal – became part of the celebration of Passover in his Sister’s home after the Second World War. Lazer returned from the War to find his wife and children “Gone”.  My Mother was the Sister who survived; his two other Sisters, “Gone”.   Three of his Brothers “Gone”. Lazer singing about Resurrection with his wife and children “Gone” every year as I, a very young Second Generation Survivor opened the door for Eliahu HaNavi to come in.
