"In the unique structure architect Eli Armon built, shaped like an altar with the flames surrounding the prayer hall, a new idea and special place was created. This place expresses not only a unique connection point between heaven and earth, but much more - it generates a unique link in Israel's heritage between past and future, from Abraham the Hebrew and Moses, to the young Israelis entering the officer's academy to take on the legacy of mission."

Maj. Gen. (Res.) Gershon Hacohen, from the preface of the book "The Burning Bush - The Synagogue of Bahad 1" describing the design and construction process of the synagogue at the IDF Officer's Academy. The book was published in 2021.
