A pomegranate fruit is a symbol of abundance and prosperity on a Jewish table on New Year holiday (Rosh Hashanah).
In the artist’s painting, it turns into crematorium furnaces. This is a cruel truth, which you cannot escape.
Before being destroyed, the Jews were robbed, and the wealth taken from them was spent on improving the Nazi destruction machine.
Jewish New Year is a Judgement Day. The Hitlerites preferred to conduct the most horrible campaigns at this time, thus the Jews in Kiev Babi Yar were killed on the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur).
The Holocaust is not only death of millions of people; it is also a war of ideologies.
Whose truth is more powerful?
Why did not the Tablets of Testimony or a shofar save the Jews?
Maybe they are not needed at all, since God does not “respond” to prayers…
Still, something is looming in the distance, some tree hovering in the air.
The tree is a symbol of life, a symbol of faith and the Garden of Eden.
Where is it flying, where will it find soil for itself?
Perhaps, in that very country where already during the Holocaust the Jews were living on their own land.
The land that they will be able to protect, protect their children, their families who live on it.
And most likely, it is exactly a pomegranate tree that we see.
A pomegranate is one of the five holy fruits of the Land of Israel.
Those who are looking at the artist’s paintings can feel a rising question: why bother the past, provoke hard reminiscences and negative emotions?
The answer is simple: the Holocaust is not yet a turned page of History.
There are heads of some countries who claim that there was no Catastrophe of the Jewish people, at the same time saying that, “millions of Zionist occupants” have no right to live.
Jewish cemeteries and synagogues are desecrated all over the world, including those in Western countries.
Hatred towards the Jews did not go away, and we need to remember every day what it can lead to.
We need to remember it in the name of the dead, but even more – in the name of the future of the living!
