(IsraelNN.com) Two Torah scrolls that were hidden from the Nazis have been dedicated in the Golden Rose Synagogue in the Ukraine community of Dnepropetrovsk. One scroll was found in the attic of a Ukraine home. It was sent to Israel for restoration.
The second Torah scroll was hidden in a cave after the Nazis invaded Belarus in 1941 and then was sent to China for safekeeping. The Chinese government agreed several years ago to release the holy scroll, which also was restored in Israel.
"These two Torah Scrolls came from Jewish communities that died out in the Holocaust," said Dnepropetrovsk Chief Rabbi Shmuel Kaminetsky. "This fact is proof as to the rebirth of Jewish life here."
