​Our teacher, our mentor.
You have opened before us the door of history,
reconnecting us to our ancient past.

You have given us a great foundation
in knowing what was.

We wish to thank you for your dedicated research
and commitment in educating us with this knowledge.

Just as Zecharia in Hebrew means "Remembered by God",
we too will remember what you have taught us
and will share this knowledge with others.

You are truly a ray of light that has touched us all!
