The publication issued by the Djerba Jewish community states: “We are very glad today to witness the fulfilment of our aim and we have been blessed with a hebrew teacher from Tripoli […] We thank our young woman Esther who dedicated her all and left her family to give hebrew lessons to our young women and instill their hearts with the holy hebrew spirit.”
