Burchartz, Alfred 1923-2009 - ‘If He does exist, God, the Righteous One, why’? His uncle's cry never let go of Alfred, pursuing him through the horrors of the Holocaust. God, why? Why do You allow all that to happen - all that suffering men are doing to men whom You have created? Why this madness in the world, all that hatred and torment of those suffering? Why do You keep silent - being called a God of Love, and Keeper of Israel? Where do You care, where do You love, and where is Your love being lived? Where are You, anywhere, if you do exist? He found that ultimately, the answer can be found only with the Man on Calvary, where Jewish people - and most Christians as well - don’t want to go. Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews!”

"It is the shepherd's duty to die with his flock" he said. He was arrested and tortured. In his last hours and minutes he pleaded with his fellow Jews to repent and turn to God for salvation. Many did. He died of suffocation in a cattle car while reciting the Psalms with a rabbi.
