The tombstones of the Jewish cemetery of Vishki

Могили Еврейского кладбищa в Вишках

 

 

Klaus Peter Rex,a german priest, was in Vishki last july with a group of young people to restore the Jewish cemetery.

He said " We have cut the grass on whole cemetary, pull out the small vergetation, cut some (ill) trees. We try to find stones under the ground (and we are sucessful), we erect some stones, which fell down, we make a map, documentate every stone, make the inscriptions visible with foam or crayon. I enclose the report (diary) of the works, but is written in German. Now we try to translate and afterwards we will make a list.

We try to find out what happened in the north-west of the cemetary. I think You have seen the unnatural deepening. Our suspicion it could be a mass-grave (for the 80 Jews from Dagda, who are killed in Vishki) could not be confirmed. It is unnatural, but the reason is unconcious.

In the beginning of the cemetary we found very much small hill, bigger than mole-hills. All these must be graves and the stones are stolen.

There are two graves in wrong direction. We cannot find out why. One of these graves is from 1970 .

Very interesting: we found two stones for two persons. And the first impression: very much people died 1923/1924"

( There is a problem here with the civil year engraved on the stone, 1924. The year 1924 has 2 months Adar; if it is the first Adar, the date is Wed 13 Feb 1924. If it is the second Adar, the date is Thu 29 Mar 1924. The last letter of the year is not easily readable, if it is a ד (= 4) or a ה (= 5). If it is a ה, the year is 685 (with only one Adar) and the date is Wed 4 Mar 1925.)

Jewish calendar tools

The phrase "A perfect man of integrity, Our rabbi and teacher " is meaningless when it appears on a tombstone, since it appears on most tombstones of males.  It does not indicate that the deceased was unusually righteous or a great rabbi, though he might have been.(Schlomo Katz)

The hands with the spreadt fingers means that this person is a cohan (tribe of Cohan i.e. priests.... descendents of Aaron the brother of Moses). The spread finger hand was used when the Cohanim blessed the congregation.  Cohans were restricted from going to cemeteries with the exception of the burials of their parents, children, brothers and unmarried sisters.
