1869: Yad Vashem Jan 27, 2020

The name of the Israel's national Holocaust museum, Yad Vashem (יד ושם) is sometimes translated as 'a hand and a name', and while this is a possible meaning verbatim, it ignores the context. It comes from Isaiah 56:

"To them I will give within my temple and its walls a *memorial and a name* better than sons and daughters. I will give them an everlasting name that will endure forever"

This verse deals with the concerns of those who can't have children, and will not have anyone to remember them, so this 'memorial' is far more suitable. However, the imagery of 'hand' is at once present in Hebrew, such as one might imagine a hand reaching out.
