"Tear and Eternal Fire" Memorial – A Living Memory of the Fallen of Moshav Beteh

In the center of Moshav Beteh stands proudly the "Tear and Eternal Fire" monument, a powerful and respectful work of remembrance, dedicated to the fallen of the moshav who sacrificed their lives during their service to the country. The monument is a living testament to their courage, dedication, and supreme duty to protect the land and the people.

Design with deep meaning
The monument is constructed from a combination of granite and Jerusalem stone , durable materials that symbolize strength, stability, rootedness, and continuity. The Jerusalem stone, common in Israel’s capital, represents the deep connection of the fallen to Jewish and national heritage, while the granite conveys strength and eternity – like the memory of those who fell and will never be forgotten.

A name with depth and symbolism
The elements of the memorial, "The Tear and the Eternal Flame," were carefully chosen to reflect the painful feelings of loss and bereavement, along with a commitment to continue to preserve the legacy of the fallen. The tear symbolizes the sorrow and pain of the families, friends, and the entire community, while the Eternal Flame symbolizes the light they left behind – their unforgettable spirit, their heroism, and the path they charted for future generations.

Memorial and community gathering center
The memorial is a significant place for the families of the fallen, their friends, and residents of the moshav, who come here to honor their memory, light memorial candles, and be alone with their loved ones. It serves as a center for Memorial Day ceremonies and community gatherings, where stories are told about the fallen, memories are shared, and a sense of continuity and unity is strengthened.

A commemoration that continues to live on
The "Tear and Eternal Flame" memorial is not only a place of remembrance, but also a call to continue the path of the fallen – to perpetuate their names, learn from their legacy, and carry their spirit in the hearts of future generations. It symbolizes the pain of loss, but also hope, the connection between the past and the present, and our commitment to remember and not forget.

To remember, honor, and commemorate – because their heroism always accompanies us.
