The Director General of the Ministry of Education, Amit Edri, said:
The Bible, the book of books, shaped the spiritual, political, and cultural image of the Jewish people. He shaped his values that have become the connecting glue throughout history. Even today, when we hear the voices of controversy, they do not challenge the connecting and sharing between us all.
The Bible quiz takes place two days before Seder night. That evening which is part of the core story of our people. You are the contestants and you contestants continue the story. Even in the complex and uncomplicated conditions of the corona, you did not give up. You persevered and came to this moment. You have plunged into the great ocean of wisdom. You pumped it with love and eagerness. You have been investing in Bible study for months, so each and every one of you deserves the honorable title of Knowledge of the Bible. The knowledge you have acquired is an iron-clad asset that will serve you at all times. It is a great gift, the cows of which will be picked over the years.
Mayor of Beit Shemesh, Dr. Aliza Bloch:
Warm congratulations to the winners. Beit Shemesh is the city of the Bible and the Bible walks for it. In the 70th year of its founding, we are pleased to host the National Bible Quiz for Youth. For me all the contest participants are winners. They won by taking responsibility for the eternity of the book and within a complex year took a challenge outside of the curriculum and the system of hours and met it. These days there is a question about choice and choices these boys have chosen the Bible, studying and memorizing the Bible. It is a statement that rests on our past as a people and builds for us our future as a nation.
