There is a powerful and frightening Meshech Chochmo on the Tochocho which I remember every year. I encourage anyone who can to learn it. For those who won’t be able to, below I have copied a short blurb of what he wrote (which I found on shemayisrael.com):
The Meshech Chochma (a commentary on the Torah written about 1870) wrote on the tochacha in Leviticus that German unreligious Jewry was making Germany and its culture their idolatry, and it was making Berlin for them what Jerusalem is to Torah Jewry, and that the punishments written in the Torah will come against them from Berlin for their defection from Torah and its commandments. The unreligious German Jew stood by his belief in the culture, civilization and alleged progress of Germans. Hashem cut them down and cast their carcasses on the idolatry which they left Hashem for!
WWII and the Holocaust came not much later. Hashem yiracheim aleinu.
