Eva Kor: Surviving the Angel of Death
Вставка
- Опубліковано 19 сер 2024
- Eva Kor was 10 when she and her family stepped off the train in Auschwitz in the fall of 1944. Minutes later an SS officer took her and her twin sister, Miriam, away from their mother, father and two older sisters. The twins never saw the others again. Awaiting the girls was Josef Mengele, "the Angel of Death" who performed unspeakably sadistic experiments on roughly 1,500 sets of twins. When the Soviet army liberated Auschwitz on Jan. 27, 1945, Eva and Miriam were among the fewer than 200 survivors of Mengele's atrocities. Kor talks about her ordeal at the hands of Mengele and her decision to forgive. Recorded on 05/05/2016. [7/2016] [Show ID: 30962]

It always amazed me how Eva could talk about such a difficult topic with such grace and even some humor and wit mixed in. I know Eva died a couple of years ago, but her stories will live on forever.
I came across her lecture via a client of mine who actually got the honor of "working" with her. She traveled to Auschwitz with Eva and was shown all of the things spelled out here. This woman said her secret to the grace, etc. you speak of was her forgiveness of these evil doers. That allowed her to move on from anger and rage. The power of forgiveness is HUGE!
I am so moved. I went to see "Forgiving Dr Mengele" at the Wiener Library in London this evening not knowing quite what lay in store. I was so profoundly affected that I came home and looked up "Eva Kor" on my laptop. And so I listened to this interview. Thank you for sharing your life story and lessons. You have helped to articulate for me what it is to be alive.
I am 88 years old. Eva Kor's lecture was the most moving inspiring talk I HAVE EVER HEARD IN MY LIFE! I CRIED, I LAUGHED WITH HER, and HER THOUGHTS ON FORGIVENESS SHOULD BE STUDY MATERIAL FOR EVERY RELIGIOUS TEACHING SCHOOL & COLLEGE IN THE WORLD. GOD BLESS HER, MAY EVERYONE HAVE A CHANCE TO HEAR THIS & MONDAY I WILL ATTEMPT TO FIND HER BOOK.
"Forgiveness is the best revenge." What an absolutely beautiful paradox. And in fact, I agree with her. All these days that have passed, years, decades and centuries, the human race had been living their lives trapped in a vicious cycle of hatred. From the crucifixion of Christ to the witch trials to the elimination of Jews and Israeli- Palestinian conflict, it has just been the same brutal story of human hatred revolving around the heads of centuries of men who've evolutionised into the future. In fact, it is an absolutely rare thing to see a final change in the world after all we've come that involves an actual apology to an enemy created. It must have been tremendously hard for Jew to ever forgive a Nazi, but surprisingly forgiveness doesn't have to take that much. All you need is the power to say "I'm sorry" and when that's done, you say it over and over again regardless of the fact those people have harmed you, because you are not like them. You are better.
This woman's message to the world is so pure, so clean and so precious. She is an example of the kind of light we need to see in people not just now, but forever. She is like a gem.
I thank you for sharing your story. you are a very wise strong & beautiful woman.may God bless you.
Oh my goodness, I have no words! I was born and brought up in England, born in 1950 whilst I was brought up in the after effects of the War, rationing etc. her speech is the most empowering that I have ever heard. She is amazing, more people should hear her story, particularly those who try and say the Holocaust never happened. Thank goodness there were survivors of this despicable atrocity (even my words mean nothing!) I am now 72 and still can’t can’t comprehend what happened. This lady is soo strong my 😘😘 goes out to her. I wish more people in the World were more like her today but unfortunately they only live for themselves!!🇬🇧
37:37 "I could feel exactly the way Miriam died and her lungs were filled with cancer". I believe it, because it is said that between twins there is a special connection. May God heal this wound, and bless you.
I have no words....what an absolutely beautiful soul. Eva's story is the most inspirational story I've ever heard. Thank you for never giving up.....amazing...LOVE TO YOU
It is beyond human strength for her capability to be able to FORGIVE her abusers !!!!!!!
Thank you for sharing finding the courage to share you story, and thank you for putting this on UA-cam for us to access. You've taught me a lot about forgiveness. Never forget!
Extraordinary woman.
@Edgar Allan Foe its not a lie..... In her mind.
Eileen Dover shut up, just shut up, your hate bleeds though your lies.
Eva was an awesome woman. Just amazing. Good advice. Forgiveness, even for small things, is hard. You think you have forgiven but come to find out, you have not.
I was pondering how any survivor could forgive, truly forgives. And if it was fair to expect this from any survivor. You showed me the answer …. Thank you for your amazing sharing and love you hold so dearly for all.
Thank you for sharing your story. You are so brave. May god bless you. I don’t know how I would of done it. I’m so sorry you had to go through that.
Your sharing your story enlightens and elevates humanity. All need to hear the truth of man's inhumanity to others so hopefully this is never repeated. Sending you love and respect and so much gratitude.
Rest In Peace Eva Kor...

WOW! Extraordinary talk of heartache and healing. So very much appreciated and helpful. Please do an update. It might help. Thank you so very much for sharing this with us all!❤️🍀🌈😇🙏❣️
What a great women and it breaks my heart about her and all her family.😭😭😭😭
Eva Kor, rest in peace!
Unforgiveness is a poison that we drink in hopes that someone else will die from it.
The comments on this video are actually making me sick, actually so disgraceful she’s telling a story so that history does not repeat its self!
Your story really touched me.You are a very strong lady and I admire you for after all you have been through you forgive those who taken so much from you.Thank you for sharing your story you are amazing .God bless you.
Her message of תיקון עולם (including her message of forgiveness) and survival is inspiring! Mrs. Kor was truly an אשת חיל, may her memory be for a blessing and and her neshuma have an aliya.
The fact that there are people who try to deny what happened boils my blood.
The only objection: it is not Angel of death but devil of death.
Do not insult the adjective Angel.
Thank you Eva for sharing your story! God bless you!!
Such a wise woman and her choice of forgiveness 💕
Rest in peace Ava!😪😥
She is such a beautiful woman that went through so much. She is so brave. Thank you.
God Bless Ms. Kor You are a Angel in Heaven. 🙏🙏🌹🌹🇨🇦
RIP sweet lady. I hope you are now with your family and finally happy. You had a strength I don’t think many had. We should keep Eva’s story alive. People think this all never happened but it did happen. A race of people were tortured and humiliated as well as living in fear.
What a beautiful picture of My Lord Jesus. He tells us, encourages us to forgive our enemies. He will repay those who choose to do evil, those who will not admit their guilt. The Lord Jesus knows who they are and he will repay. Their time dead or alive WILL COME, the Lord is our hope.
And now for Jewish peoples, I am african American, I stand in solidarity with you. My Lord ask that I love and I do so gladly . There is a marked blessing for those bless you. I choose love.
I think why people struggle with forgiveness is that 1. The perpetrators need to ask for it and many have not. 2. What happened in the Shoah is so horrific the trauma exists to this day.
Eva was an amazing human being. How awesome it must have been to talk to her 1 on 1, she is very inspirational 👏
Eva’s story is so horrible and sad and wonderful and hopeful all at the same time… What she says here is profound and I think it would be beneficial for everyone to no her story and see how she lived her life even with her life was and her sister through such unimaginable situation
Amazing woman. May you go from strength to strength.
Such a wise lovely person. Everyone should listen to her.
I have a hard time forgiving. For me forgiveness feel too much like saying what you did was okay and you can do it again and i will just let you. I'm sure that's not what it means to Eva, but it does to me. And I also think it's different to forgive someone who still might hurt you again vs something that is definitely over.
This is her story and this is the only way she could find peace, by forgiving. This isn't the only way to move on, but this is HER way of finding peace. I agree with you, I couldn't have forgiven such people, not in a million years, it's not my way of moving on, but it is hers.
@@MariaKiran1 Yes exactly, I'm glad you also understood that. I only commented because she asked us all to also find peace by forgivness, and I will not be doing that
Thank you so much for sharing !!!!!!!
God Bless You Always 🙏🏻💜
Great story. I thought they could have done better with the questions.
I am not criticizing her but people need to stop calling box cars cattle cars. Box cars had little ventilation. Cattle cars had numerous openings for ventilations. The people in cattle cars were the lucky ones.
This is really profound. May her wisdom and light shine forever through history and I hope gems like her never go unseen in our thoughts. There is hope in that dark sky, a guiding star. But, this might sound as a strange question but, how do you forgive yourself? Does the same logic apply?
I got an anonymous reunion for giving the possibility of science because there were an attak on Berlin- and they showed me their night- so I described it on my Internet site. With a to do list
U are a brave, strong and extremely powerful person. I appreciate u telling ur story. May God bless u and all other survivors of the horrors the holocaust and the war. 💜💜♥️♥️
Why do we still see atrocities in this world? Haven't we learned a lesson from the past? Truth is, we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against a spiritual wickedness in high places (Ephesians 6:12). What is happening on this planet is the great controversy that has existed between satan & Jesus. Each person will either have the Spirit of Christ or the spirit of satan. Make your calling and election sure. (2Peter1:10)
Its to much. Try to hear this another day
Thank you mum.....your are one of a kind!!!
She is so strong damn.!!!!
My late grandmother Evelyn Martine was a US Chiricahua Apache prisoner of war born in 1912, these Chiricahua Apaches were treated pretty harshly by the US government. I don't think it is the same as the Nazis' trying to exterminate another human race, but it shows what humans are capable of doing to others.
I agree with you.. be it Nazi’s or cruel caretaker relatives .. the childhood memories remain forever .We look at the big powers but neglect their cruelty to the people of the soil , be it their own country or brandishing smaller countries in the name of religion , caste or color .
Loved this
Some say forgiveness is the best revenge. But millions of people died just because somebody hated their faith. How do you forgive that?
St Peter was heard saying " Ihre papiere bitte "
You can find it under Elke Entz in 3 languages, and it was worse than I thought
Writing their names on paper works for I been doing this exercise all my life but it was for their KARMA to come to them and I witnessed each name that I wrote down on my paper KARMA strike them, every single one in such a short time. I witnessed heavy sorrows and death come their way without my hands ever touching it, but just by the amount of hurting energy they caused in my heart. It was a Spiritual act of revenge and this energy does work no matter what energy you use ... whether for good or for bad.
I know it sounds like such a cruel thing to do .. assuming it would ease my pains. It eased some but not all. I had forgiven these people over and over again before casting their names on that paper .. my Forgiveness was always taken for granted and many kept repeating the same torchures to me afterwards.
Will Forgiveness erase it all, Yes but it won't stop them from constantly striking back at you.
However I'm willing to try the excerce of Forgiveness again. It will be a heavy challenge and I know it won't come overnight as easy as I have given it before because I have much more RESIDUE to cleanse from my hurt before applying that much Forgiveness again.
Yes, this type of Energy does work and is very real.
Thank you for sharing your personal life with us. I started mine on Facebook in my group titled: THICK RESIDUE
Concerning my mother trying to end my life in her womb after she was raped with me, the abuse from her all my life, the incest, the rapes I suffered as a virgin, the whipping til my leg bled, ect. ... I slashed them all on Facebook because my family refused to ever hear my cry.
Paperdoll Artzgeniuz

Edgar Allan Foe
What? Why
She lied?
Lol all of you are so unbelieveably stupid... This woman is telling the truth. I just finished visiting auschwitz and saw pictures of her and her sister miriam... Just stop and let her rest in peace please...

I am honestly so confused.
Paprika don’t beleive the neo nazi bastards, don’t let their hate get to you
May God bless your memory .My family survived The Turkish " Final Solution"in !914 .
1943 begann the lost of the war and the experiences to avoid sending humanes to the four
May people never forget our history if they do they’re bound to repeat it. in America we are heading down a very dangerous path
Eva went to the big " camp in the sky". Godspeed.
I will never forget
Wehen I got a little bit of human meat, I was isolated 3 years and the sons of nazi doctor helped me to go out of this horror called black magic
Whatever happened , still survived, not killed brutally like Princess D. Still think why killed her, why. Why. Why
i have no words to say after seeing so many videos of holocaust survivors and the nazi camp, and how much the have been through, they were not humans i wouldnt even call them animals they were worst then animals,, a sincere condolence from a MUSLIM to those innocent jews and all those innocent people who died in world war 2.... May ALLAH guide such misguided people and protect everyone .
Animals don’t do such things,
only humans do such evil things.
Animals are kind and full of love
unless they have been abused,
then they will be afraid of us.
@@annebalderston2520 thats why i mention them as worst than animals
May God bless all the victims and survivors of these Nazi atrocities....
THIS WOMAN WAS AT MY FUCKING SCHOOL TFFFFFF
God bless you eva
For the moment, german cry because they never cöuld like these childs they have in tjeir families, because they never admitted the child of Kain with hairs

Eva Kor. Surviving the trench run on the first Death Star. Let's go full makebelieve.
What do you do with your life?
All these ^survivors^ lived a ripe old age considering their torture, disease & privation.
All look well off too.
Grifters.
Having worked with a number of survivors during my career, I see their lives as a miracle. Even that cannot compensate for their personal losses.
Ain’t buying it....
Lol k
Eva Kor , I don't believe one word she is saying
Are you an idiot or have you been drinking the Kool-Aid??? Wake the Eff up...THIS HAPPENED!
Melissa Dinger! you are an idiot who believes her lies with no evidence! I care less what you think
Marlene....how sad it must be to be so closed off in your mind...whether you want to believe something didn't happen, doesn't make it so...I have relatives and friends who know first hand...So, crawl back under your rock
The same lame story they all have that has made the Jew cult billions through donations.
Ur fucking disgusting and a waste of a human
I thank you for sharing your story. you are a very wise strong & beautiful woman.may God bless you.
