A Tree grows from the seed of Israel. L’Dor Va Dor, from generation to generation it is said. From its ancient roots, the words are inscribed into each Jewish soul that stems from its life force. Zikaron (Remembrance), Chochmah (Wisdom), Imoteinu and Avoteinu (Our Ancestors), Yedah (Knowledge), Or (Light), Torah (Torah), Yisrael (Israel).
Along the way, entire branches have been cut off, sometimes violently, and leaves fall away into the forest. Occasionally they grow back, but often they are gone forever. However, against all odds, the ancient tree continues to grow and spread new branches and leaves, לדור ודור, from generation to generation.
