Belief in G‑d After the Holocaust

Why do you say Hashem did nothing. Actually as written Hashem works ALL things together for those who love G-d. Hashem put our people back in our ancestral homeland. He showed Himself mighty in ALL of our wars and the VERY existence of Israel shows His Wonderful and Mighty hand. And brother you aint seen nothing yet for the best is YET TO COME. "But you have saved the best for last" He has saved His best because WE haved suffered more than any one people group on the earth. And through it ALL He makes sure that for the purpose of His Holy and righteous Name we will STAY in that land and WHEN Gog and Magog come against us He will Himself will STAND as our mighty rock and we will "burn the enemies spears for 7 years" "The heaven's shall be rolled up like a scroll" Heaven and earth may pass away but His Word NEVER will.

For those who cannot understand why we can believe in G-d after the Holocaust, get Viktor Frankl's book, "Man's Search for Meaning." He went through the Holocaust and came out with a strong belief in the G-d that so many dismiss.

Like it or not, we Jews are called the apple of G-d's eye; he protects us and prevents us from being completely wiped out. Ge it? While the Holocaust was going on, millions of His people were in other lands, safe from the reach of Hitler.

I've got some research to do before I comment further.

Once again, you are trying to use human intelligence to figure out what G-d's intelligence is. It cannot be done. The face that so many of us know that we are the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob PROVES beyond a doubt that G-d IS. What other people ,know who they came from over 3,500 years ago? There is not a single nation that knows for certain who they used to be, ONLY the Jewish people know.
The Babylonians and the Romans thought that if they destroyed a group's temple, they destroyed the home of their god they had destroyed that god.
The G-d of Judaism has no body, nor does our G-d have someplace to "live." He is ETERNAL. So our G-d still exists.
The PROBLEM is that WE have broken His laws and commandments. We were told that we'd be spread all over the earth. However, that meant that we could tell the story of the ONE TRUE G-D to the people of this world.
You think that you've got G-d figured out...you don't.

Sarah, thank you for for your sensitivity. I appreciate your not wanting to hear the more terrible parts. I happen to be recording the video and if it works, I might be able to give you that information. However, I also dislike hearing about some of the horrors people went through whether or not they were Jews. I'll try to help you out. But I have listened to Holocaust survivors tell their stories and they've left nothing out. As shocking as it is to listen to, methinks that we have to at least once listen to the horrible things they witnessed and lived through.

I'm making no promises, but I will try to help you.

All these atrocities and "G-d" did nothing. Today the world is starting the next round. Again "G-d" is doing nothing.

Case closed.

I have recently learned that I have Jewish ancestry. I have always been deeply moved by anything having to do with the Holocaust. Now I know why. Thank you for sharing your experience. Yes, G-d is a G-d of miracles. If we look with a pure heart, one looking for G-d, we see.

I'd like to watch the video but don't want to hear the disturbing parts as I am very sensitive. Can someone tell me at what time of the video should I switch it off?

I was baptised a Catholic,but as a child of 10 , quickly realised ,the nuns at the Catholic school where i went ,were as cruel as a non Christian could be . For a long time ,i never entered a church and towards my teen years,was in limbo as to what to believe as far as religion. I finally found my solice in just being spiritual, just doing good for people ,and treating people as i would like to be treated. I have always felt empathy and admiration for the Tibetan people , the Jewish people, and the black American people .

Keeping in mind that our thoughts are not Hashem's thoughts and his ways are not our ways,suppose that Hitler had USED his Jewish resources instead of doing what he did, Germany and the rest of the Axis powers would have WON WWII!
Being born just before American got involved in the war, the first time I knew what had happened when I saw the newsreels at a theater. Even as a child, I realized what I was watching and instantly got ill. How anyone can deny the Holocaust happened is beyond my ability to comprehend.
That said, however, again, our ways are not Hashem's way. Those who blame him for the Holocaust need to read Job. Where were THEY when he created all we see? In the end, we belong to him, he can do as he will and has done.
People are denying that the Sandy Hook atrocity happened and that was a MONTH ago!
I find that it is easier to believe in Hashem than to believe that WE are alone in the universe, that we just happened.

IT Happened! I regret not being able to listen to a talk given by a rabbi whose very name contains ANGE for angel as in our French word and I just commented on the word change containing 'ange' on Facebook, my 'page'. So yes I feel visibly & totally led.

I cannot personly handle revisiting the barbarous cruelty. And yet I know G-d was there in the camps and that Divine Providence does and must implicate G-d. It is a story that has great impetus bringing us and me to my knees. It cannot be over when it's over. I know everyone and all places this soul has been makes a solitary journey also totly connected to a vast burgeoning truth that G-d is ever and always in the wings. It's all G- AWED and this story is Messianic in nature.
