Abstract
Rabbi Yerahmiel Kerom, a popular Ashkenazi Haredi preacher, describes in one of his sermons a conversation he held with a nonreligious Jew from Ashdod, a Holocaust survivor who had been a yeshivah student as a young man. According to Kerom, the man objected to the use of sirens in major cities to herald the beginning of the Sabbath because they evoked grim memories of the Holocaust. As he continued to speak, Kerom distinguished between those who survived the Holocaust and those who make associations with the event decades later.
