Israel’s Yad Vashem Holocaust Memorial published a Spanish edition of a Rosh Hashanah prayer book that was written from memory by a Holocaust inmate in a labor camp, according to the Jerusalem Post. Naphtali Stern penciled the evening service for Rosh Hashanah onto pieces of brown paper bag at the Wolfsberg labor camp so he could lead other inmates in the holiday services.
