A Question Of G-D: Jewish Theology And Memoirs Of The Holocaust, Rebecca Mcclellan
A Question Of G-D: Jewish Theology And Memoirs Of The Holocaust, Rebecca Mcclellan
Honors College Theses
The Holocaust, the systematic murder of the European Jews by the Germans, had massive impacts on the religious beliefs of those Jews who survived it. Nazi authorities and their accomplices stripped Jews away from their homes, their families, and everything they knew. Forced to work under inhumane conditions, many came to question the God they had followed and the religion they had practiced. This thesis investigates the memoirs of five Jewish survivors to analyze the impact the Holocaust had on their faith.
