Summary/Abstract: The Jewish community share the same fate of Jews around the world. Before World War II it was counted to a thousand members of the Jewish religion, and today there are only about thirty. Before the war the Jews had a synagogue, yeshiva, a rabbi and a cemetery, today they don’t have any of that. But they kept their faith and collective identity. Through the memories of shared oppression and suffering, the Jews of Nis successfully withstand time.
