Yom Ha’Kaddish Ha’Klali


No one knows exactly when so many of the millions of Jews who perished in the Sho’a actually died. Many families were wiped out, and no one was left to say kaddish, the prayer for the dead, for them. In Israel the Chief Rabbis decided that on Asara B’Tevet, kaddish would be said for all these Jews who have no one left to say kaddish for them, and by people who lost families in the Sho’a, but do not know when their relatives died.
