The Tehillim 91 Sukkot Harvest Festival in Las Vegas, Nevada

This post will be in Note form since preparing for Sukkot is the busiest time of the year.  There is no busier time for a man than the two days before Chag Sukkot.  I believe that there is as much pressure on a Jewish man before Sukkot as there is on a Jewish woman before Pesach.  Of course that is my opinion.  You are free to differ.:

H.T.: J. R. Ewing of Dallas, Texas, in the other land of Gog who, along with his father from Houston, tried to build a 33 story roof over the world called the New World Order... The roof seems to have sprung a Tumah leak on the 32nd floor.

Sukkah spelled with a Vav (סוכה) is 91: The Vilna Gaon said that there are 91 varieties of non-kosher sukkahs in Mesechtat Sukkah, and there are 85 varieties of kosher sukkahs spelled without a Vav (סכה) in that mesechta.

Aldean, the Country singer who was completing his concert, means (This is) about judgement.

Esav pretends that he rises to the 33rd level of purity in order to serve G-d for the purpose of making money by having a chazakah on the Mon at the 33rd level of purity, the third time that the Mon fell.  Yet, he only rises to the 32 2/3 level of purity because he never shed that third tear when tears welled up in his eyes upon losing the brachah.  Paddock was "lodged" in a room on the 32nd floor when he submachine gunned the Country Music crowd of 22,000 fans.  He was shooting through a 32nd story window.  Apparently, Divine Protection has been removed from America almost completely.  The 33 degree FreeMasonic roof has sprung a leak of Tumah.   The FreeMasonic sukkah is not kosher since it is spelled with a Vav with the gematriah of 91.  Plus it was established by Gog Washington, and Gog refers to a roof with with no holes in it.  If you have a hole in your roof (gag), you will either need to patch the hole in your roof or build a whole new roof.  So when Gog Washington established the Great American sukkah in the 31st century after Matan Torah, his intent was that two centuries later at the end of 33 centuries, another Gog would patch up the Roof.  Well as I mentioned above, that NWO roof seems to have sprung a leak.  

I should point out that there really is not a  US Route 91 in Las Vegas that I could find on my road atlas.  There are two US routes that go north and south through Las Vegas (Route 93 and Route 95).  Plus what do they harvest in the Nevada desert?  So this concert was only aptly named on a spiritual level since there is no harvest in the desert around Las Vegas and since there seems to no Route 91 in Las Vegas itself.  I am open to being shown that there is a Route 91 there.  

Tehillim 91 begins:

א יֹשֵׁב, בְּסֵתֶר עֶלְיוֹן; בְּצֵל שַׁדַּי, יִתְלוֹנָן. 1 O thou that dwellest in the covert of the Most High, and LODGES in the shadow of the Almighty;
ב אֹמַר--לַיהוָה, מַחְסִי וּמְצוּדָתִי; אֱלֹהַי, אֶבְטַח-בּוֹ. 2 I will say of the LORD, who is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust,

Over the years, many of America's sins have been overlooked.  The Name of HaShem that is used to represent the attribute of Erech Apaim is Shadai.  He suspended judgement on those sins.  The Hebrew word Yitlonan (יִתְלוֹנָן) means (he, the man in G-d's shadow) will lodge as in a hotel (מלון) room.  So to lodge in the Shadow of Shakai provides much security because G-d is suspending judgement on your sins at least for a certain year.  But if He no longer suspends judgement, then we see what we just saw in Vegas right after Rosh HaShanah since that man, Stephen Paddock, was either not lodging in G-d's shadow or he was when he executed G-d's judgement.  May the 515 injured from this heinous crime have a complete recovery.  Amein.

  1. The body count started at -50 and kept going down from there. On Shavuot night 5776 when Sefirat HaOmar Mateen went into that gay bar in Orlando and murdered 49 homosexuals, he became the 50th dead body in that bar at Alot HaShachar. America was at -50 since that Shavuot night. For over a year HaShem has waited for Americans to repent out of that muckity muck sewer. But now America is sinking into the quicksand of -50, for at -50 there is no floor, just quicksand as its once great culture sinks into the sands of a Nevada desert.

  4. The moment i heard about the shooter @ level 32 i knew something weird was going on. The masons can't stand leaking. Debka says shooter was a convert to Islam, his wife is from the Phillipines, i understood. So the leak is the former president himself? He brought them down to this level deliberately, and the masons were sleeping behind the wheel, or maybe as the notorious P2 lodge from Italy seems to indicate; they didn't mind so much. Just spicing up your blog a little. Don't mind if you do mind, and never mind, if you don't mind.

    ReplyDelete
  12. The Mon first fell on a Saturday night/ Sunday morning on the 31st day of the Omer.

    As it says: א וַיִּסְעוּ, מֵאֵילִם, וַיָּבֹאוּ כָּל-עֲדַת בְּנֵי-יִשְׂרָאֵל אֶל-מִדְבַּר-סִין, אֲשֶׁר בֵּין-אֵילִם וּבֵין סִינָי--בַּחֲמִשָּׁה עָשָׂר יוֹם לַחֹדֶשׁ הַשֵּׁנִי, לְצֵאתָם מֵאֶרֶץ מִצְרָיִם. 1 And they took their journey from Elim, and all the congregation of the children of Israel came unto the wilderness of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after their departing out of the land of Egypt.
    ב וילינו (וַיִּלּוֹנוּ) כָּל-עֲדַת בְּנֵי-יִשְׂרָאֵל, עַל-מֹשֶׁה וְעַל-אַהֲרֹן--בַּמִּדְבָּר. 2 And the whole congregation of the children of Israel murmured against Moses and against Aaron in the wilderness;
    ג וַיֹּאמְרוּ אֲלֵהֶם בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל, מִי-יִתֵּן מוּתֵנוּ בְיַד-יְהוָה בְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם, בְּשִׁבְתֵּנוּ עַל-סִיר הַבָּשָׂר, בְּאָכְלֵנוּ לֶחֶם לָשֹׂבַע: כִּי-הוֹצֵאתֶם אֹתָנוּ אֶל-הַמִּדְבָּר הַזֶּה, לְהָמִית אֶת-כָּל-הַקָּהָל הַזֶּה בָּרָעָב. {ס} 3 and the children of Israel said unto them: 'Would that we had died by the hand of the LORD in the land of Egypt, when we sat by the flesh-pots, when we did eat bread to the full; for ye have brought us forth into this wilderness, to kill this whole assembly with hunger.'
    ד וַיֹּאמֶר יְהוָה אֶל-מֹשֶׁה, הִנְנִי מַמְטִיר לָכֶם לֶחֶם מִן-הַשָּׁמָיִם; וְיָצָא הָעָם וְלָקְטוּ דְּבַר-יוֹם בְּיוֹמוֹ, לְמַעַן אֲנַסֶּנּוּ הֲיֵלֵךְ בְּתוֹרָתִי אִם-לֹא. 4 Then said the LORD unto Moses: 'Behold, I will cause to rain bread from heaven for you (Mon); and the people shall go out and gather a day's portion every day, that I may prove them, whether they will walk in My law, or not.
    ה וְהָיָה בַּיּוֹם הַשִּׁשִּׁי, וְהֵכִינוּ אֵת אֲשֶׁר-יָבִיאוּ; וְהָיָה מִשְׁנֶה, עַל אֲשֶׁר-יִלְקְטוּ יוֹם יוֹם. 5 And it shall come to pass on the sixth day that they shall prepare that which they bring in, and it shall be twice as much as they gather daily.' (In this case, the 6th day was both a Friday AND the 6th day that the Mon actually fell since it fell first on Motzei Shabbat).

    So, The Mon fell for the first time on the 31st day of the Omer since the 15th of Iyar was a Shabbat and was the 30th day of the Omer. Therefore the Mon fell for the third time on Lag B'Omer, when Esav calculates that if it falls for him in three separate centuries, it will fall for him forever because he is now part owner of it. The entire bit of why each level of purity corresponds to a century while Israel purifies the world through Mitzvot has been explained in several places on this blog.

  13. The Las Vegas shooter didn’t commit suicide as the mainstream media is reporting, but was killed by a FBI hostage rescue team who also found Antifa literature in his hotel room, according to a source linked to the team.

  15. It is either a Muslim thing such as fulfilling a vow to ISIS and Allah, OR this mass shooting might very well be a way to express intense hatred for those who voted for Donald Trump. Country Music devotees more likely voted for Donald Trump than any of the Socialist or New World Order candidates in the Primaries or the General election. And we already have one example of an attempt to murder a bunch of Republican Congressmen playing baseball which was thwarted after the shooter put Steve Scalise in a life threatening situation with a bullet through his lower extremities.

  17. Because Esav only serves G-d to build Olam HaZeh, his essence is to only serve HaShem to the 33rd level of purity. So Esav's Angel, SamKel (Goat of Medes), loses koach at the 33rd level of purity. It is the main reason that Rabbi Akiva's students stopped dying on Lag B'Omer during the Bar Kochba Revolt. The spiritual essence of Edom peters out at the 33rd level of purity at Hod that is in Hod in the same way that the spiritual essence of Yawan peters out at Netzach that is in Netzach, the 25th level of purity. The spiritual essence of Amaleq in Persia petered out at Tiffereth that is in Tiffereth the 17th level, but Amaleq is not pure. It represents the dark underbelly of Edom. It is no accident that 33 + 17 =50. Whenever Edom does not strive for greater purity, it provides a vacuum for Amaleq to fill 17 levels of impurity. It helps to explain why the last great war is between Edom and Amaleq in the Persian Empire. They systematically destroy each other because by Edom only striving for 33 levels of purity, Edom provides a place for Amaleq in the Persian Empire to "hide out" and establish himself at the End of Days. So since Edom itself has reached -50, it has to destroy and be destroyed by his own dark underbelly. Since it is Israel that purifies the World through mitzvot, one level every 100 years, The angel of Edom must "die" no later than 3333 years into this purification process since 3333 years is 33 1/3 centuries. Well, we are now this year 3330 years since Matan Torah. Either the war between Edom and Persia begin NOW, during Sukkot, with an attack on North Korea or vice verse since N. Korea's number one ally right now is Persia, or Trump foolishly delays the war. If he waits just two years, 2 to 2.5 billion people will likely die (1/3 of the world's population) when the war "inevitably" (in the words of Kim Jong Un) begins at that time. What a horrible prospect that would be!! B'Rachamim the War should begin during Sukkot 5778. Beseech G-d that this should be the case if a miraculous third option does not unfold. He is not inclined to destroy 1/3 of the world. To be a Destroyer is not one of His attributes.

  18. The autistic kid already said the prophecy of Zecharia will be fulfilled: "One third [of the world] will be completely destroyed. One third will be very badly hurt and one third will be untouched for the most part. That will be the area where Eretz Yisrael is."

    With or without Mashiach, I'm making Aliyah by february, beezrat Hashem. I want to work the land in the Sde Eliyahu kibbutz while keeping the mitzvot and learning Torah at night. If I have to wait two or three years with the cows and chickens, so be it. A yeshiva is not for me. But I really hope Mashiach comes this year. I'm already tired of this damn exile and the enemies of Israel, specially in Edom. I want all antisemites dead and rotting in hell. Two more years with that filthy wicked people living in our world is too much, but I guess it is worth the wait if one billion haters of Israel will die once and for all.

  28. Chag Sukkot Sameach. Unlike on Rosh HaShanah where we say L'Shana Tovah/ and K'tivah VeChatimah Tovah or on Yom Kippur where we say Gmar Chatimah Tovah, we replace the word Tov which means Good with Sameach which means Joy for Sukkot. This is the Time of Our Joy to concentrate on Simcha ... in spite of whatever is happening on the other side of the Globe. We will dwell in Sukkot for 7 days and Shake the four species D'Oraita on the first day of Chag and D'Rabbanan on the other 6 days. The 7th Day will be Hoshana Rabbah which flows into the next Chag, Simchat Torah aka Shmini Atzereth.

  29. Dear Dov, please post this version of my comment, as the first version was not complete. Chag Sukkot Sameach! B'H

    After reviewing the videos and witness testimonies I do no believe the shooting was genuine. It was a deep state masonic psyops hoax. I could not find a single dead body in any video, no pools of blood, no heavy bleeding. Many witness testimonies claimed they ran past bodies, but looking at the videos shows many people were paralyzed in fear laying down, not shot, but staying low. It seems that panic of the moment tainted their perceptions. The interview with the brother of the alleged shooter was very strange, and his reaction seemed feigned. Testimony from Dan Bilzerian also seemed strange and insincere. I don't doubt there were many injuries from the stampede, because of people being intoxicated and terrified, but I still cannot find any gun shot wounds or corpses among the footage, with the exception of the single mass publicized photo on most media outlets of the girl with bloody legs, who may be only unconscious and wounded from the chaos, but not shot dead.

    So what is the motive to create this illusion? Gun control.

    How could it have been accomplished? By cooperation between deep state operatives who are in revolt against Trump and allied with the globalists and their agenda to disarm Americans, and a young group of passionate anti-gun liberals posing as concert goers (or young loyal agents). They would have to be crisis actors among the crowd, sworn to secrecy, and willing to perform such a deception in the name of gun control. It was like a mass hazing ritual for those crisis actors, working with the deep state freemasons.

    This event seems to have been a grand Disney production; however, not as well planned as 9/11. It seemed sloppy and too obvious that it was fake, if you look close. There are a bunch of other "conspiracy theories" suggesting multiple shooters, firing from other floors, and a plethora of strange anomalies, like the woman who warned them in advance, and the varying reports that keep coming out about the alleged shooter. I sense this was designed to create a pandemonium of information, and lead people on "wild goose chases" in order to obfuscate the fact that it was a hoax; albeit hidden in plain view.

    America's 2nd amendment is the biggest obstacle to the globalists making America subservient to its NWO agenda. May Hashem save us quickly!

    The primary reason G-D allows the wicked to get away with such things is to pile up sins upon them before their destruction. All things are from Hashem, and serve His righteous “conspiracy.”

  31. "I am open to being shown that there is a Route 91 there."

    Main article: Interstate 15 in Nevada

    The route of U.S. 91 in Nevada was replaced with I-15 in 1974.

    >>>>In Las Vegas, U.S. 91 was better known as Las Vegas Boulevard<<<< (State Route 604 after the 1976 renumbering of most Nevada state highways). The intersection of Las Vegas Boulevard and Fremont Street is the historic intersection with U.S. 93 and U.S. 95. Here, U.S. 466 parted ways with U.S. 91 and headed southeast on Fremont Street with southbound U.S. 93 and 95. At this intersection, U.S. 93 and 95 departed Fremont Street and turned northeast onto Las Vegas Boulevard, heading northbound with U.S. 91. A few blocks further up, at Bonanza Road, U.S. 95 turned west until it hit Rancho Drive, then continued north. U.S. 91/93 stayed aligned with Las Vegas Boulevard, which turned into Salt Lake Highway after departing the city of North Las Vegas.

    Until its decertification in 1974, U.S. 91 followed I-15 to exit 112, where it took present-day NV 170 through Riverside to Mesquite, turned right onto NV 144 (Mesquite Boulevard and Sandhill Boulevard), and then followed Hillside Drive into Arizona (where the road became Fairview Avenue).

  34. Shilo, you may be on to something. However there was one Jewish victim who I believe died from her wounds. Yes, it seemed like a theatrical presentation of a massacre. However, I saw videos showing injured bodies on stretchers, and people being asked to take wounded to the hosp. Yes, there are many discrepancies and mysterious and inconclusive evidence, the hallmark of a false flag setup to confuse the nation. Gun control? right about that. More has to come our.

    ReplyDelete
  35. I knew that if they could not prove a motive within 48 to 72 hours after the massacre, the conspiracy theorists would come out of the woodwork. No way to stop that. It was bound to happen. We are over three days into this investigation, and the authorities have or are at least pretending to have no idea why he did it. Driven by G-d to inflict Judgement is not on anyone's radar,.... of course. So we will watch the merry-go-round a conspiracy theorists come to the wackiest conclusions under the Sun. Eventually, it won't take long, they will be blaming the Mossad, once they have eliminated all the other possibilities. Very few will be looking at themselves in the mirror asking what did I do, or what can I do to change. That is the tragedy of it all. There won't be a Cheshbon HaNefesh. I just should point this out with regards to G-d's messaging. Al Din or Aldean was the Country singer singing his last song of this performance while Paddock himself was an Accountant for Lockheed-Martin, a Cheshbonai in Hebrew. But the message for everyone to do a Din veCheshbon on themselves will continue to escape the minds of most, but that is one of the messages.

    Plus, let us be honest, 58 people are dead. Maybe the LVPD will release a list of names. When we see the names, we will all agree that they actually died in this massacre. Let us not pretend or even suggest that no one died even if we come to the conclusion that this was a false flag operation.

  40. The first two plagues in Egypt were water plagues: Blood and Frogs. Nile turned to Blood, and Frogs came from the Nile. They corresponded to Aharon hitting the SURFACE of the Nile, and Moshe Rabbeinu himself was saved by the SURFACE of the Nile. This was established because Noah's Ark had floated on the SURFACE of the Flood Waters which were 15 Amot above the peak of Mt. Ararat. After the first two plagues in Mitzraim, the next 8 plagues left the original paradigm of Water plagues. The Blood plague attacked the Nile as an Avodah Zarah while the Frogs plague attacked those who actually worshiped the Nile as an Avodah Zarah, the Egyptians themselves. No more plagues were necessary to attack those two things, the Avodah Zarah and its worshipers, conceptually. So the next 8 plagues completely left that paradigm.

    In the Final Redemption, the first two plagues needed to correspond with Noah's Ark being immersed in the Waters of the Flood 11 Amot as it floated on the Waters of the Flood which we established rose to being 15 Amot above Mt. Ararat. In the Final Redemption the First Plague Harvey first attacked Corpus Christi, the Body of X, the Avodah Zarah of Edom for most of the last 2000 years. It then immersed the Land of Gog, Houston, in up to 50 inches of water. The next Plague that effectively was really a plague, and not just a warning or an impetus for teshuvah like Irma, was Hurr. Maria who first attacked the island of Dominica which means "belonging to the lord (Yoshke)". Maria destroyed that island. So Yoshke's mother destroyed the island dedicated to his most loyal devotees, and thereby directly attacked their very lives. She then went on to destroy half of the island of Puerto Rico another island filled with devotees to Yoshke. So just like with the first redemption from Egypt, there is no reason for the paradigm of Water Immersion plagues to continue since there have already been two such plagues. The process seems to have shifted to a plague of a senseless massacre against Sin City in the shifting sands of the Nevada desert because America at -50 is sinking into spiritual quicksand and totally losing its original identity that had been established 241 years ago by its Founding Fathers.

    As we will see, the Final Redemption will come in two parts corresponding with the Vav and the Final Hey in HaShem's Name. In Mitzraim there were really 15 total plagues, 10 in Mitzraim itself and 5 more at the Reed's Sea where the plagues at the Sea were Five times more powerful than the ten plagues in Mitzraim. That adds up to 15 plagues. continued...

  41. Since the Final Redemption is with the Vav and the Final Hey, the first plagues unheralded by Eliyah the Prophet will correspond to the Vav in HaShem's Name and will have the quality of the Gematriah of Vav which is 6. Then Eliyahu will herald the plagues associated with the Final Hey (5). 6 + 5 = 11 since the Ark sunk 11 Amot into the waters of the Flood.

  49. Moadim lesimcha! As usual, the conspiracy theorists keep blaming "tha jooos" instead of their God Who runs the world (not here, obviously, I'm talking in general). A few days ago another user said in the name of infowars that the attacker had "antifa" magazines and was killed by the FBI. As you all know, I'm not crazy about liberals, but I laugh at the very possibility that somehow they were behind the last shooting to impose "gun control".
    "Don't mess with muh freedom"... if there is an NWO, they couldn't care less if people have guns. They will go underground while the rest kill each other. I seriously doubt the "right to bear arms" will save those rednecks when Nibiru strikes in the US with millions of debris (Ezekiel 39:6).

    Apparently there are no mistakes in security. Someone always "controls everything", but never The One above. I guess it's an easier explanation and doesn't force them to change their evil ways. Sooner or later, when nature strikes in catastrophic ways, they'll have to admitt that something bigger than any human force is hitting them... martians! or even better, Zionist martians! Honestly, this time I don't think the Bush cabal has something to do with the last shooting. And even if it did, the fact is that everything that happens in the world must be approved by The Big Boss (no, not Gog). Over 50 people are dead, and nobody can tell their relatives that everything is an hoax and they will see them soon. But they never learn their lesson. It seems that wicked nation will suffer something much bigger.

    So, what's next? Plagues of fire? What do you think, Dov? A nuclear war with North Korea? Maybe another hurricane, since a scapegoat is less efficient when it comes to natural disasters. However, if you look for excuses, you'll find them. It won't save you in your trial.

  50. The Snake-Like Trump does it again

    Trump says in an interview he wants to give his peace efforts a chance before moving the U.S. embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

    http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/236423

    My message to Trump: There cannot be any peace with inherent haters and enemies of Israel. And they cannot make peace with Israel since it is against their belief. Instead you send your Court Jews to try to enforce your new peace plan - a plan that would be suicidal to Israel. A plan based on the Saudi peace plan. SHAME ON YOU!

    Report: Preliminary details of US plan for new talks

    Sunday, September 24, 2017

    Senior Arab and Palestinian Authority officials have revealed preliminary details regarding a diplomatic plan being formulated by the United States to renew the peace process between Israel and the PA, according to Yisrael Hayom. According the London-based Arabic-language Al-Arabi Al-Jadid, American diplomats in Cairo, who wished to remain anonymous, have confirmed the reports.

    Under the temporary plan, said to be acceptable to Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia, there would first be reconciliation between Fatah and Hamas that will allow the PA to hold power in Gaza. Israel and the PA would discuss the gradual establishment of full PA control of Areas A and B in Judea and Samaria. In accordance with the progress of the political process and the negotiations between the sides, a summit would be held in Cairo, with the participation of Egypt, Jordan, the United States, Israel and the PA, in which the parties would discuss ways to facilitate the continuation of the diplomatic process and expand the authority of the independent state to Gaza.

    In the last stage of the plan, discussions would begin on a predefined timetable regarding core issues, such as the status of eastern Jerusalem, the annexation of large blocs of Jewish communities beyond the 1949 Armistice Line, the complete freeze of construction in isolated communities and the uprooting of communities that are not part of the blocs based on land swaps and a solution to the refugee issue.

    Finally, don’t you find it amazing how the FBI was able to clear any ISIS connection in less than 12 hours after the shooting? This is the same FBI, remember, that has spent over a year desperately trying to find a Russia conspiracy link to President Trump, yet has been unable to do with any legitimate evidence whatsoever. Yet more than year into their investigation, they refuse to clear President Trump of Russia collusion. [ISIS and CIA/FBI connection?]

  58. Dear Dov,

    I posted an update to my first comment (sorry for it being long), but it may have been missed. As a general comment to everyone, it is understood and should be known that Hashem is behind all events, but we are often dealing with human agents, and it is important to analyze their selfish agendas in context of the greater Geula, as this blog is focused on. For example, just because G-D was behind the holocaust, doesn't mean we don't blame Hitler or investigate his motives and the circumstances. The Satan is like G-D's vicious attack dog on a leash. Its nature is to attack and do evil, but G-D only lets the leash loose when He uses it for His purpose (i.e. judgement).

  66. Today's rain event in Eretz Yisrael on the 5th day of Sukkot. The Ushpiz for today was Aharon HaKohen. His Midah that he perfected during his lifetime was Hod (Glory). Today was the first day of rain here in Israel to "kick off" the rainy season. We hold off mentioning rain in our davening until Hoshana Rabbah, and we hold off mentioning rain in Shmoneh Esrei until Musaph of Shmini Atzereth when we have already left the Sukkah for the Chag. We do so for two primary reasons.

    1. We don't want to open our mouths in Shmoneh Esrei, mentioning that rain might fall in Eretz Yisrael, in order to not give the Satan permission to ask HaShem that it should rain while we are sitting or sleeping in the Sukkah forcing us to go inside and nullifying our ability to fulfill this mitzvah.

    And 2. While the actual judgement for how much rain will fall all over the Globe is decided during Sukkot, specifically on Hoshana Rabbah, the Judgement for how much rain will fall in Eretz Yisrael is decided on Shmini Atzereth when we are already inside our houses for the long winter. So we pray for rain all over the Globe on Hoshana Rabbah, and we pray for rain in Eretz Yisrael on Shmini Atzereth during Musaph.

    The keys for rain all over the world are given to the ministering angels of the various lands throughout the world, BUT the key to rain in Eretz Yisrael is only held by G-d Himself. So a rain event in Israel during Sukkot is highly significant. It rained today on the 5th day of Sukkot, and it seems to have dried out for the rest of Sukkot for the last two days. So HaShem is telling us that He is displeased about our midah of Hod specifically. The level of Hod that is in Hod is of course our favorite number 33. So we have all inculcated the American midah of serving G-d to make money, but in order to welcome Mashiach, we have to divorce ourselves from the American worldview in its entirety by serving Him lishma in order to build Olam HaBa. We are lead by leaders like Bibi who are immersed in this American worldview, and it is time to make a break from our dependence on American protection and American culture as a source of our worldview. That is, I believe, the message of the rain event today on the 5th day of Sukkot.

  73. Dov is right. We have to get rid of materialism once and for all. This idol is kaput. Let's focus on building our eternal Olam Habah in Eretz Israel. But first, "the Lord your G-d will put all these curses on your enemies who hate you [Arabs] and persecute you [Christians]." (per Ramban)

    Still waiting for the plagues of fire. However, I'm afraid if Kim Jong Fat is the messenger to punish Edom, the Americans won't get the point about Who is really doing all this... except for the antisemites who will scream "tha jooos" (never their G-d, of course). They'll keep pointing fingers at NWO, North Korea, the liberals, nature, patriarchy or "tha joos"... anything except looking at the damn mirror and changing their evil ways, which is harder, but much more effective.

Because of the extreme drought situation over the past 4 years, this year would bring catastrophe regarding WATER. I believe that Hashem was telling us that we would be getting our WATER - Rain this winter and not to worry. The Rain being the Glory of Hashem in His exacting Wisdom. We need to look at the “positive” and “negative” of all events that occur in Eretz Yisrael, but to think positive. RAIN is ALWAYS a blessing in Eretz Yisrael First Rains

    And this underscores the FIRE ASH SMOKE that is choking California. I believe this is part of the WHO BY FIRE plague.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Yes, it is indeed important to interpret and contemplate on what message the intense rain full yesterday means.

    A special blessing for rain appears in our liturgy of the holiday of Shemini Atzeret, at the beginning of Israel’s rainy season. We pray that the Divine bring beneficial rain, which falls at the right time to nourish our crops and fill our reservoirs. As the Talmud says, “The day when rain falls is as great as the day on which heaven and earth were created (Ta’anit 8b).”

    But it is not enough to just pray for rain. The Torah teaches that our actions impact the rain as well. In Bechukosai, we read that rainfall is a function of our doing God’s will. If Israel keeps the Torah, G'd says, “I will give your rains in their time, the Land will yield its produce, and the tree of the field will give forth its fruit… you will eat your food to satiety, and you will live in security in your land, and I will grant peace in the Land.” (VaYikra 26:4-6)

    This promise of abundant rains and prosperity is followed by a warning that, should Israel ignore the Torah, G'd will “make your skies like iron”–cease all rains and bring drought, according to the Midrash. Conversely, the fact that we specifically ask that the rain be “for a blessing” acknowledges that too much rain is just as dangerous as not enough.

    In a number of instances in the Tanach, H' sent rain that was a curse, not a blessing. The Flood came to punish the generation for transgressing H’s will. Rashi explains that the rains of blessing became a destructive flood when the people refused to repent. In the time of the prophet Shmuel, G'd brought thunder and rain to chastise the people. (Shmuel I 12:17-18)

    Now, how do we continue from here. How should we understand that we got plenty of rain out of the season - more than two weeks too early and maybe there will be more. On the one hand, the Land cries for rain so it was probably most welcome. However on the other hand, if this continues it could become a curse. I have still not found an answer in our sources that could understand the situation where the rain fall prior to the "right time". Please note that forecasters predict another year of draught in the Land, C"V. I hope H' in His mercy will overrule their calculation as He did with the outcome of the US presidential elections.

    To be continued.

He also stated that, unlike the other SBOs, the Dutch organisation was autonomous and was not controlled by NATO, MI6 or the CIA. Less than two years later he saw himself forced to dismantle the organisation. "

    Dov, i am not suprised that some people see conspiracies. There is some proof of that, and reality beats fiction anyway. What do we know? Erev rav may be involved in some of that. Even the blue and white state could be. Please don't get me wrong, i have my own Cheshbon HaNefesh to make, believe you me. But if Jewish people don't live up to their G'd given potential - causing a vacuum - while others might be involved in shady things, than that might indeed be one of the reason how the conspiracies about Jooos get into the world. And doesn't it say that all the blessings and curses are for the sake of Israel ? So in a strange way they might even be right. So you have to smarten up; no more gay parades for a start, and so on. That causes a Din from Heaven for you guys and the world. That was just an educated guess to illustrate the point though.

  86. Vincent, neither Jews nor gentiles are living exactly for the purpose they were created for. Let's put it that way. That's why Zechariah 12 and 14 must take place before the world is clean. At least two thirds of humanity must go, I don't want to say where. Since the time of Abraham, instead of using the Jews to look for spiritual guidance and purpose in life, the goim have been trying to kill or assimilate our people to get rid of God's rules, also because of jealousy. As for us, we messed up too many times because of the yetzer hara and trying to imitate other nations. Of course, 2,000 years scattered in this long and horrible exile didn't help much. Although if you compare the rigtheousness of Jews to goim... well, there's nothing to compare. It's just that God expects more from us, and He wants to clean us here more than "over there". Don't think another nation would do a better job. But yes, we messed up big time. Sometimes I wonder how come Hashem hasn't wiped out all of us and stay with the angels. I know I would. Hashem is patient, but if someone doesn't do teshuva sooner or later, He will take revenge against that person beyond our wildest nightmares. However, despite Hashem let us have free will, He knows the future. Therefore, for some strange reason He chose to create this world despite everything that was going to happen. He knew it to the last detail! I can't imagine something so good that justifies all this mess for so long. He created evil, suffering and sin for a reason, not because He enjoys it. Was it worth it???

  87. The tensions with North Korea continue.
    The Daily Telegraph reported yesterday that the UK military has developed a 'war plan' for possible conflict with North Korea.
    This is normal, because the UK military will have 'war plans" for the most likely hotspots of conflict in many areas of the world.
    But what is worth noting is that The Daily Telegraph is one of the right-of-centre broadsheet newspapers of the UK, which have links with the intelligence services.
    They use it as mouthpiece when they need to.
    So the article represents a "warning shot across the bow" from the British military, in the direction of the North Koreans.
    The British military is small in number, not well funded, but punch above their weight, have a history of getting involved in recent conflicts, have strong special forces, and have nukes.

  89. AN OPEN LETTER TO MR DONALD TRUMP, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.

    ...Dear Mr. President, you are a good man with high aspirations to advance the welfare of your nation in every field. But just look around: uncontrollable forest fires in California. Tornadoes in Oklahoma and other states. Devastating hurricanes that are costing the federal, state, and local governments hundreds of billions of dollars. Oil rigs are down. California is counting the days until the next major earthquake, not to mention New York City, which is built on a geological fault.

    Stop for a moment and ask yourself, why are these tragedies happening to your country?


    The answer is that like Pharaoh, you, Mr. President are an obstacle to the realization of G'd’s plan for the Jewish nation and hence for the world.

    The land of Israel was given to the Jewish nation exclusively and in accordance with the Biblical boundaries of the Euphrates River in the north continuing to the Nile in the south.

    Your prohibition on Israel’s building in the areas liberated in the Six Day war are the obstacle to the implementation of God’s plan, that the Jewish nation return home, hence your nation is suffering plagues of many kinds.

    If this prohibition is United States policy, or even if it is the pressure of certain misguided Jews of all ranks, it is your Christian duty to aid and abet the Jewish people’s return to their ancient homeland.

    I wish you success in all your endeavors. But remember your success and the success of your nation (and of the world) will be contingent on the manner in which they all relate to the Jewish people’s miraculous survival and return to their ancient homeland.

  90. Meir: I don't believe that Donald Trump is a Xtian. Whenever he mentions G-d, he is referring to the G-d of Israel. I actually believe that. If he is repenting, and possibly he is still in process, he personally is repenting as a Noachide.

    I am reassessing the role of this blog and its direction now that nothing dramatic happened on Hoshana Rabbah/ Shmini Atzereth in the direction of Geulah. The Geulah has definitely picked up speed since the Solar Eclipse that cut America in half on Erev Rosh Chodesh Elul. Plagues are occurring on that once great country and on North America in general including in Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. But the dramatic event that was discussed in detail on this blog with regards to the Messianic Era commencing at the End of Sukkot obviously did not occur. This blog will likely continue since the Geulah has begun even if only with regards to the Fall of Edom in the world and not with the consummate rise of Ya'akov/ Yisrael at the same time that Edom is disintegrating. Persia/ Iran along with N. Korea seems to filling in the void since as the potentially good side of Edom deteriorates, his negative alter-ego Amaleq in the Persian Empire is filling the void. Yet, how this blog will continue will require introspection and thought over the next few days. I will write something with regards to this either on Sunday or on Tuesday, bli neder, this coming week.

    Shavua tov and Erev Shabbat Bereishit tov. We are At the Beginning again when G-d created the Heaven and the Earth.

  92. Time to Review

    Rav Dov,

    Maybe it’s just time to take stock. As we’re starting from בראשית, it’s an opportune time to do a “Geula Accounting” and assessment, much as any business has an annual review.
    Let’s review what we know for a fact, what are speculations, what are contra-indications to the geula process.

    For example:

    Fact – ingathering of Jewish people / closing of “galut”.
    Fact – flourishing of Land of Israel.
    Fact – recent miraculous events.

    Contra – destruction of settlements.
    Contra - division and polarity.
    Contra – all predicted dates have passed.

    Speculation – Korea’s role in redemption process.
    Speculation – Trump’s role in redemption process.
    Speculation – Natural disasters.

    So, I don’t think it’s time to shut down the blog – but to take a long, cold, hard look at what we know and what we don’t know; then re-evaluate where we think we are. Maybe review past assumptions and methodologies to see what worked and what didn’t.

    We still treasure and need your wide ranging expertise.

    Blessings for the upcoming year and a fresh new start.

  93. Bereishit is the foundation on which every other book of the Tanach stand.

    The tiniest error in definition (names, places, events) and interpretation of any part of Bereishit leads to cascaded exponential type errors of unimaginable proportion in interpretation of other books of the Tanach. These errors have led to the creation of so many geula fairy tales.

  99. I am not going to stop writing. I am taking stock over how I will approach this task. The Makkot on the US are increasing at an astronomical rate. Eurasia is a Muslim dump. The world is disintegrating. It just did not reach a point over nine months where Mashiach could fill the vacuum. Esav's Malkhut is dying rather quickly, but .....

    1. Israel is not at a point where we can lead the world, and we are far from being in a leadership role. When Netanyahu has to wait for Trump to leave UNESCO before he can announce that he is leaving UNESCO, we are exceedingly far from wearing the kipah of world leadership. And to be honest this sniveling humiliation and self-deprecation that is hallmark Bibi does not seem to bother most Jews here. They are used to it, and they don't think that it will be changing anytime soon. It is the essence of spiritual Galut.

    2. The Coming War is going to last more than one day. The World of Lies has to utterly collapse before the Messianic Era can take hold. When 49 homosexuals were mowed down by Sefirat haOmar Mateen while he became the 50th dead body in that gay bar on Tikkun Leil Shavuot at Alot HaShachar, right on schedule when America reached the 50th year since the Summer of Zima in San Francisco in 1967, something became very apparent. America was collapsing on a Geulah timetable discussed by this blog while Israel was in no position to take the mantle of world leadership. The West at -50 in spiritual quicksand was collapsing on the timetable discussed on this blog while we here in Israel were going about our business brown-nosing Edom's behind. It is specifically that point that needs to be reassessed.

    ReplyDelete
  103. Oh, yes

    1. Half the G-d fearing/loving Jews in Israel are Chareidi. They are divorced from the day to day running of the State. That has to change. You can't effect change in a worldview of yourself as a lowly peon, if you have that SAME worldview of our role in "perpetual" Galut, something that your worldview holds that only G-d can change. Yes, one needs G-d's blessing to change it, but then one has to take an active role in convincing our leaders to stop brown-nosing the nations of the world. Yes, that will incur the rage of those nations "when we rebel", but the process will then move along because G-d WANTS US TO REBEL AT THIS TIME, especially after the Shoah, the founding of the State, and when we reached the population plateau of 6 million Jews in the Land of Israel. You see that desire to rebel in Naftali Bennett when he says, "Let us just annex Area C, and yes, the UN will take a hissy fit, but who cares. G-d is with us." But 8 to 12 seats in the Knesset are not enough seats to rebel. The Chareidi parties are not on board. So religious Jews are divided. Some think that it is time to assert ourselves, and some think that the Galut will drag on for at least another 100 years. The ones who think that the Galut will drag on for another 100 years have no desire to assert themselves.

    2. The dispensation of Aliyat HaRegel to the Temple Mount, at least to the parts of the Temple Mount that were part of the Court of the Gentiles during the time of Herod's Temple. On those 2/3rds of the Mount, one can make Aliyat HaRegel by not incurring Kareit and by doing preparatory actions such as going to a mikveh that is kosher to remove Niddah impurity. One does not need the ashes of the red heifer to ascend to the Northern and Southern Courts of the Gentiles. I am trying to remember who said that if we don't use it, we will lose it. Well we saw this past Summer, that is precisely the case. Who felt national humiliation the full week during the 9 days when Bibi removed those metal detectors?? Which Torah observant Jews felt humiliation, and which ones were not fazed one bit? What were the percentages? Again, you can't fight Bibi's acts of national humiliation, if you don't feel humiliated!!

    ReplyDelete
  104. Dov, maybe Hashem simply wants us to wait and trust Him, instead of taking matters on our own like when Shaul made the sacrifice without waiting for Shmuel to arrive. The only difference between me and Satmer is that, despite I'm also willing to adopt the "waiting mode" for Mashiach, I don't accept this when we are stateless and subject to the mercy of the goim, always suffering discrimination, assimilation, pogroms, inquisitions, crusades and genocides. We got part of our ancestral homeland back. I prefer an imperfect Jewish state (or state of the Jews if you will) than no state at all. Honestly, I prefer a million times to live under the "patriotic" erev rav than any foreign nation in the world. Edom is collapsing anyway, so I don't know how much time the US Jews have. HOWEVER, now it's not pikuach nefesh to make Aliyat HaRegel to the Temple Mount. Baruch Hashem we have a developed country and a strong army to survive and keep mitzvot, even without the Mashiach and the third temple. If Hashem wants us to do something about the Temple Mount, let's wait for His orders. It's His problem after all. How are we supposed to guess what He wants anyway? Except for Moshe, Hashem always talks with riddles, tests and tricks. Let Him for once to unambiguously communicate with His people and tell us what the hell He wants from us! If not, I suggest to keep the status quo and stop the enemy before they have the capacity to hurt us (i.e. Iran, if necessary). What if we try to do something dramatic and we mess up? It will be "game over" for us. Unfortunately our nation is not steeped in merits to start something crazy and trust that Hashem will always help us, if you know what I mean.

    For my part, I'm planning to make Aliyah and live in a religious kibbutz for the rest of my life. I just want to work the land in peace. If Mashiach wants to come, good for us. If not, it's his problem. I will try to have a frum life with or without him. As far as the chabadniks preaching to bring Mashiach by keeping Torah and mitzvot... I wasn't planning to drop the religion anyway. I care about my own soul and the afterlife, regardless of Mashiach and the redemption. Every person has its own "redemption" and judgment when they leave the world, I heard that from people who had near death experiences, so we shouldn't make the Torah something conditional to the coming of Mashiach... who will come, eventually (13 principles of faith, Rambam). If not now, maybe in 200 years. Who knows? We should try to be happy in our present circumstances. Our grandparents would have given everything for the life that we have. In the meantime, let's pray that righteous rabbis working in kiruv like Rav Yosef Mizrachi Yish Emeth have success to bring more and more Jews closer to their Father in Heaven. AND CONVINCE OTHER JEWS TO MAKE ALIYAH!

I think the last time that the Iraqis controlled Iraqi Kurdistan was when their President was Saddam Hussein. Iranian Revolutionary guard proxies are on the prowl against Kurdistan, and Erdogan of Turkey is making strange threats against his relationship with the United States since the Americans seem to be sticking with the Kurds this time around.

    ReplyDelete
  114. Yes, we were invited by G-d to come up during the waning days of the Tamuz Moon, precisely at the time of Ivah (אוה) that the Arizal HaQodesh predicted. Chronologically the first mitzvah in the Torah to build a Dwelling Place for G-d in Olam HaAsiah by building a Mishkan or an altar is the mitzvah to build that altar out of whole stones than were never hewn by metal tools. Later on in Devarim the mitzvah is clarified that the metal that should never touch G-d's altar is iron. So HaShem was enforcing the first mitzvah of building a Mishkan or a Temple in the Torah by setting up a situation where metal detectors were installed so that iron implements would be prevented from being taken up to Har HaBayit. HaShem often works in such subtle ways to get His message out. How could such a powerful message and "invitation" fall upon eyes that are too blind to see the spiritual implications of what happened during those 12 days of Ivah, those 12 days of HaShem's intense desire to dwell in His House in the lowest world? It happened.

    Bibi then capitulated like a crumbled piece of aluminum foil, using the excuse that he wanted a security guard out of Israel's Jordanian Embassy in Amman. So what a way to capitulate than to capitulate before the Jordanian king's blackmail. Shame on him. Shame on J. Greenblatt for pushing Trump's acquiescence to the king's blackmail. G-d's invitation tuned into a week of national humiliation. A spiritual opportunity blown to smithereens. But HaShem will now find another way. And those who spurned His invitation, He Himself will now spurn!

Waiting and procrastinating on this matter will only increase the power of ten of the eventual death toll. It is best that he take care of this matter pronto. Pray for it. One can pray that HaShem take care of this matter miraculously so that very few wicked people die, but we must always work within the situation as it exists by not assuming that a miracle will be performed. So yes, millions may die if Trump goes to war right now, but billions will die if he procrastinates.

  121. For the moment Trump has only kept on talking and referred that issue to the Congress. Twitting is Trump's specialty.

    He has not interceded on behalf the Kurds and thus Irak/Iran have reoccupied the territory the Kurds liberated in earlier conflicts.

    Palestinian leader Rami Hamdallah met with Trump's emissary in Ramallah and called on him to pressure Israel to halt construction in Judea and Samaria communities. I have no hopes that any intervention from Greenblat the Court Jew will benefit Israel, c.f. what he achieved concerning the magnetic detectors in the Old City of Yerushalayim.

    Until further notice I stay with my position that Trump is Snake-Like and supporting the Saudi peace plan. Under the temporary plan, said to be acceptable to Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia, there would first be reconciliation between Fatah and Hamas that will allow the PA to hold power in Gaza. That phase seems to already been achieved.

  122. Yes, Meir, for the moment..... But Trump has done partial teshuvah. Is it enough? Probably not.

    So far in the meantime the Kurds have lost Kirkuk in the short term. The Kurds like guerrilla warfare though. They suck the enemy troops in and pick them off in droves when they come in as an occupation force. The US controls the skies above Iraq so that the Persian proxies in Baghdad have no planes. At this moment the war between Madai (the Kurds) and Persia and their Bavel proxies is under way. This is far from over.

He gains nothing by procrastinating except for approval by the Village Idiots running the Deep State and the New World Order Waiting and Procrastinating because of the fear of millions dying, starting with in Seoul, will lead to hundreds of Millions dying. Waiting and procrastinating because of the fear of tens or hundreds of millions dying will lead to the death of 2.5 billion people. We live in a world run by Reprobate Idiots. Maybe that is the reason why Trump has procrastinated and may continue to procrastinate. I am not at the point of Ginno who believes that 2.5 billion need to die (1/3 of the world's population).

As of September 3rd, he has a hydrogen bomb, a bomb with at least ten times the destructive capacity as a regular fission bomb. I ask, in what way has Trump's procrastination made things better? Un is on record saying that he has nothing to talk about until he can reach the East Coast of the US. All Tillerson has achieved is that he has allowed Un to work toward his Goal!!! What a Reprobate!!! Is he really that stupid? He was the CEO of the world's largest oil company (headquartered in Houston, Texas, the Land of Gog Sr.). Well therein lies the answer. He is not stupid, but he is a Class A Reprobate. And Trump is LIABLE for hiring him in the first place. Let us be honest about that. He should have hired John Bolton as Sec. of State, and this situation would not have been allowed to deteriorate as it has. But alas, Bolton is too pro-Israel and an exceptionally decent man.

Any country, state, prime minister or president who wishes to disturb the Holy Land of Israel and the Jews who live in the holy Land of Israel, and wish to take parts of the holy land - the Creator of the world will strike them and their country so hard that they will regret that to have been born.


    Says Rabbi Nachman Kahana

    Dear Mr. President, you are a good man with high aspirations to advance the welfare of your nation in every field. But just look around: uncontrollable forest fires in California. Tornadoes in Oklahoma and other states. Devastating hurricanes that are costing the federal, state, and local governments hundreds of billions of dollars. Oil rigs are down. California is counting the days until the next major earthquake, not to mention New York City, which is built on a geological fault.


    Stop for a moment and ask yourself, why are these tragedies happening to your country?


    The answer is that like Pharaoh, you, Mr. President are an obstacle to the realization of God’s plan for the Jewish nation and hence for the world.

  136. Please consider the following verses and commentary carefully:

    Devarim 4:30
    When you are distressed, and all these things happen upon you in the end of days, then you will return to the Lord your God and obey Him.


    “These things” are referred to below...

    Devarim 31:29
    For I know that after my death, you will surely become corrupted, and deviate from the way which I had commanded you. Consequently, the evil will befall you at the end of days, because you did evil in the eyes of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger through the work of your hands.


    “The evil WILL befall you at the end of days.” No more denial! time to face reality and be apart of the holy remnant.

    Devarim 32:35
    Vengeance is poised with Me, and it will pay at the time their foot stumbles. For the appointed day of their reckoning is near, and what is destined for them hastens.


    Nothing can stop Hashem. It will come like a hurricane. This is the price exacted by the sins of our forefathers, and those of Israel today (majority) who forsake their G-D, and His Covenant.

    Zechariah 13:7-9
    O sword, awaken against My shepherd and against the man who is associated with Me! says the Lord of Hosts. Smite the shepherd, and the flock shall scatter, and I will return My hand upon the little ones.

    And it shall come to pass throughout all the land, says the Lord, two parts of it shall be cut off. They shall perish, and the third shall remain therein.

    And I will bring the third in fire; and I will refine them as one refines silver, and I will test them as one tests gold. He shall call in My name, and I will respond to him. I said, "He is My people"; and he shall say, "The Lord is my God."


    The “shepherd” is clearly referring to Israel's leaders or government. As shown in Zechariah 12 and 14, Israel will be invaded, and here it says that two thirds will be killed (i.e. those who did not repent and fear Hashem)... The 1/3 remnant will be like David, and like angels... The holy remnant.

    These verses are not implying the leaders of other nations, because they are not associated with Hashem like a Jewish leader or government is. This prophecy, in proper context, is a message to Israel today! The 2/3 who will perish are those living in the land... of Israel!

    Forget about applying this to the rest of the world; they will be dealt measure for measure, and the final death toll could be higher!

    Devarim 32:36
    When the Lord will judge His people, and will reconsider His servants, when He sees that the power is increasing, and none is controlled or strengthened.


    Hashem will have mercy after the 2/3 of Israel perish, and the “final debt” is paid, and He will reconsider.

    Devarim 32:43
    For He will avenge the blood of His servants, inflict revenge upon His adversaries, and appease His land [and] His people.


    Then Hashem will destroy all the wicked of the world on Yom Hashem.

    Zechariah 9:9
    Be exceedingly happy, O daughter of Zion; Shout, O daughter of Jerusalem. Behold! Your king shall come to you. He is just and victorious; humble, and riding a donkey and a foal, the offspring of [one of] she-donkeys.


    So what about those who say the Messiah is already in Israel..? They are deceived, because he will come to Israel from exile, after Yom Hashem, when the wicked of the world have been destroyed, and he is victorious.

    Micah 5:2
    Therefore, He shall deliver them until the time a woman in confinement gives birth. And the rest of his brothers shall return upon the children of Israel.


    Until then, Hashem has delivered the Messiah (born in exile) and his branch of the House of David (his brothers), until the woman (Jerusalem) gives birth (her exiled children are gathered in).

    Shalom aleichem; Baruch Hashem!

    The chabad.org website states that the Rambam in Mishnei Torah writes Mashiach will come before the rebuilding of the Beit Hamikdash, and then he will help to rebuild it.

    There are opinions that some or all of the Beit Hamikdash will descend fully built from Shamayim. According to the link below Mashiach will connect the Gates of the Beit Hamikdash to the rest of the structure which descends from Shamayim.

    Shiloh: On this blog, Ariel Sharon was the Shepherd in Zecharia 13. His tale is in the sidebar of this blog. His last biography of himself was a book that is no longer in print: HaRoeh with an Ayin with a picture on the cover of Ariel Sharon milking a baby sheep. The original shepherd according to Radak was Herod the Great. Herod and Ariel Sharon had much in common. Both were Great Builders, and both were great destroyers too. One might wonder if they were the same soul.

  140. Dov, call me crazy, but I've always believed that Sharon was a reincarnation of Herod. Another similarity: the Jewish origins of Sharon are doubtful, just like Herod, since Sharon's mother, Vera, was a Subbotnik, and we are not sure if the Subbotniks are really Jewish, just like there's controversy regarding the forced conversion of the Edomites during the conquests of Yochanan the Hasmonean Kohen Gadol. A goi who is converted by force is not really Jewish, unlike the fake religions of Christianity and Islam where you can convert to escape death (without being sincere in your faith). I heard from rabbi Mizrachi that Sharon was actually a goi since Vera's conversion in Russia wasn't really kosher because it was done by a kofer of the reform movement. Of course, we must clarify that this is NOTHING MORE than pure speculation. There's no prophecy in Israel since the destruction of the Temple. This is pure speculation and nothing more. I guess we won't have a definitive answer until Mashiach comes.

    Another thing: despite the Intifada was planned by Arafat and the Fakestinians bear most of the responsibility, Sharon was willing to sacrifice Jewish lives in the process (1,000!). Herod didn't have much respect for human lives. Don't get me wrong, I respect Sharon because he was a great general who fought for Israel his entire life, but I reserve the right to criticize him for other decisions he made besides the Gaza withdrawal.

  141. Sorry, I correct myself: Herod's mother was a Nabatean convert, not Idumean like his father. So it could be that Herod was really Jewish according to halacha. I'm not sure.

  142. When Will the Resurrection Take Place?
    By Nissan Dovid Dubov

    “G‑d builds Jerusalem, He gathers together the outcasts of Israel.”1

    The Sequence of Events

    Describing the advent of Mashiach, Rambam writes:2 “If a king will arise from the House of David who, like David his ancestor, delves deeply into the study of the Torah and observes its mitzvos as prescribed by the Written law and the Oral law; if he will compel all of Israel to walk in [the way of the Torah] and repair the breaches [in its observance]; and if he will fight the wars of G‑d; — we may, with assurance, consider him Mashiach. If he succeeds in the above, builds the [Beis Ha]Mikdash on its site, and gathers in the dispersed remnant of Israel, he is definitely the Mashiach.”

    We see from this ruling that Rambam holds that the Ingathering of the Exiles will follow the building of the Third Temple. This view is based on the verse,3 “G‑d builds Jerusalem, He gathers together the outcasts of Israel,” and is supported by numerous Talmudic and Midrashic sources.4

    Continuing this theme, the Zohar5 quotes the verse in Tehillim that follows the above verse,6 “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds,” and writes that the Resurrection will take place forty years7 after the Ingathering of the Exiles.

    The order of events will thus be as follows:

    1. The arrival of Mashiach.

    2. The rebuilding8 of the Beis HaMikdash.

    3. The Ingathering of the Exiles.

    4. Forty years later,9 the Resurrection.10

    According to one view, the Resurrection will take place in the month of Nissan.11

    Early Resurrection

    There is an opinion that certain righteous individuals will be resurrected at the outset with the arrival of Mashiach.12 As a reward for their lifelong divine service, they will thus be privileged to participate in the universal rejoicing that will accompany his arrival, and to witness the rebuilding of the Beis HaMikdash.

    Similarly, there is an opinion that Moshe Rabbeinu and Aharon and his sons will be resurrected before Mashiach comes, so that they will be able to instruct the people as they did at the time of the Exodus.13

    A related question: Can Mashiach himself be resurrected from the dead or does he have to be a man now alive?

    Rambam14 describes the revelation of Mashiach as a gradual process in the course of which a righteous and learned leader of his generation will fight the wars of G‑d, become a potential Mashiach, and then go on to build the Beis HaMikdash and gather in the exiles.

    However, there are indications that Mashiach could possibly be a righteous individual who has already lived and died and will then be resurrected as Mashiach.15 Discussing the personality of Mashiach, the Sages state:16 “If he is one of the living, then an example would be Rabbeinu HaKadosh [i.e., R. Yehudah HaNasi]; if he is someone from among the dead, then he is someone like Daniel.”17 Abarbanel, in his authoritative classic entitled Yeshuos Meshicho,18 clearly raises the possibility that Mashiach may be among those resurrected. He cites a passage from Tractate Derech Eretz Zuta: “Nine people entered the Garden of Eden alive ...Mashiach.” He explains that according to this view, a righteous individual deemed to be the Mashiach will live, then die on account of the sins of his generation, but will eventually be resurrected. In his encyclopedic work entitled Sdei Chemed,19 R. Chizkiyah Medini states that if Israel is exceedingly meritorious, Mashiach will be resurrected from the dead in a miraculous manner.

  143. Footnotes

    For the previous post on When Will the Resurrection Take Place?

    1.Tehillim 147:2.

    2.Hilchos Melachim 11:4. Considering the elaborate length of his Discourse on the Resurrection, it is interesting to note that Rambam does not even mention this subject in his Mishneh Torah. A number of commentaries explain this by observing that the function of this work is to codify applicable Halachah; it does not discuss future events outside this context. Hence it does discuss the coming of Eliyahu HaNavi and Mashiach, for these have applicable halachic ramifications, as is documented in the commentaries.

    3.Tehillim 147:2.

    4.Berachos 49a; Midrash Tanchuma, Parshas Noach, sec. 11 (and see the commentary of Etz Yosef there). For full documentation, see Igros Kodesh (Letters) of R. Sholom Ber Schneersohn of Lubavitch (the Rebbe Rashab), Vol. I, p. 309.

    5.I, 139a; see also p. 134a.

    6.Tehillim 147:3.

    7.The Zohar draws a mystical analogy between this interval of 40 years and the 40 years of Yitzchak’s age at marriage and the 40 years’ sojourn in the wilderness. According to Sanhedrin 99a likewise, the Messianic era will last for 40 years. Commenting on this passage, Chiddushei HaRan cites the view that the Resurrection will take place 40 years after the arrival of Mashiach, and also cites variant opinions of 70 and 400 years.

    8.According to many sources, it appears that G‑d Himself will build the Third Beis HaMikdash (rather than Mashiach, as in the passage from Rambam which opened this chapter). It has been suggested, therefore, that the actual edifice will be restored by G‑d, but its gates will be restored by Mashiach. For a full discussion of this point, see Chiddushim U’Biurim of the Lubavitcher Rebbe on Hilchos Beis HaBechirah, sec. 19; and in English, Seek Out the Welfare of Jerusalem (by R. Eliyahu Touger; Sichos In English, N.Y., 1994), p. 145ff.

    9.Cf. Tzror HaMor on Shir HaShirim 8:12, citing Ramban.

    10.Rambam’s apparent conception of two distinct periods within the Messianic era — an initial period conducted according to the natural order followed by a supernatural state of being — is discussed in Likkutei Sichos, Vol. XIV, p. 417. (See also footnote 56 there regarding the view of Ramban.) This discussion appears in English in I Await His Coming Every Day (Kehot, N.Y., 1991), p. 51ff.

    The Rebbe often quotes the Zohar to the effect that the Resurrection will take place 40 years after the advent of Mashiach. (See Igros Kodesh, Vol. II, p. 75; Sefer HaSichos 5752, Vol. I, p. 274. However, there are also other references in the sichos (e.g., Likkutei Sichos, Vol. XXVII, p. 206; Sefer HaSichos 5733, Shabbos Parshas Balak, footnote 3) — that if Israel merits it, Resurrection will take place earlier. (See Yeshuos Meshicho by Abarbanel, Iyun 1, ch. 3; Maayanei HaYeshuah, Tamar 2, Maayan 1; Netzach Yisrael by the Maharal, ch. 45.) The fact that Rambam does not mention the Resurrection in Mishneh Torah (see footnote 202 above) also suggests that in his opinion the Resurrection will take place at some time after the Ingathering of the Exiles.

    However, there are opinions that the Resurrection will take place before the advent of Mashiach. (See the commentary of Yfei Anaf on Midrash Eichah 1:51; Likkutei Sichos, Parshas Vayechi 5751, footnote 6, quoted also in Shaarei Geulah, Vol. II, p. 57; Taamei HaMinhagim, p. 470; Maasei Tuvia (by R. Tuvia the Physician); Olam HaElyon, end of sec. 47.) The Halachah, however, does not follow this opinion, since where there is a difference of opinion in the Talmud, the Zohar decides the Halachah (see Sefer HaMaamarim 5709, p. 184; Likkutei Sichos, Vol. XXIII, p. 102) and in this case the Zohar is clear in that Resurrection will follow the advent of Mashiach by 40 years.

    11.Tur, Orach Chaim, sec. 490, quotes Rav Hai Gaon in the name of the Talmudic Sages; see the Alter Rebbe’s Shulchan Aruch, Orach Chaim 490:16. According to Rav Hai Gaon, the Resurrection will take place before the rebuilding of the Beis HaMikdash. (See Otzar HaMidrashim, Vol. II, p. 388.)

  144. Dear Dov, perhaps that is true, though... "it shall come to pass throughout all the land, says the Lord, two parts of it shall be cut off. They shall perish, and the third shall remain therein.

    That hasn't happened yet, but if you reckon that Ariel Sharon was the shepherd, and also considering the current state of the world, it surely is at the door.

    In the era preceding the redemption-no one will take the Torah concepts of faith and trust and apply them to real life. No one will demand, for example, that we rely on G-d and not pay attention to what the non-Jewish nations have to say about our future in Eretz Yisrael. "Teachings" and "halacha" will operate in separate spheres. Faith and trust in G-d will remain theoretical concepts while security and sovereignty over the Land of Israel will be considered "politics."

  150. Aharon Shapiro

    I would said that is more interesting to ask when we can expect the redemption/the arrival of Moshiach. This blog has mainly been occupied with this question. This although a person should not occupy himself with the Aggadot and homiletics concerning these and similar matters, nor should he consider them as essentials, for study of them will neither bring fear or love of G'd.

    Similarly, one should not try to determine the appointed time for Moshiach's coming. Our Sages declared: 'May the spirits of those who attempt to determine the time of Moshiach's coming expire!' Rather, one should await and believe in the general conception of the matter as explained.

    The Talmud tells us that Moshiach has to come by the year 6000. The year 6000 view comes from the Babylonian Talmud, Sanhedrin 97a. The Talmud compares the messianic age to the Sabbath and note that a day to G'd is like a thousand years. So Sunday (0-1000), Monday (1000-2000), Tuesday (2000-3000), Wednesday (3000-4000), Thursday (4000-5000), Friday (5000-6000), and Shabbat (6000-7000). It has been taught in accordance with R. Kattina: "Just as the seventh year is one year of release in seven, so is the world: one thousand years out of seven shall be fallow, as it is written, 'And the Lord alone shall be exalted in that day,' and it is further said, 'A Psalm and song for the Sabbath day,' (Ps. 92:1) meaning the day that is altogether Sabbath — and it is also said, 'For a thousand years in thy sight are but as yesterday when it is past' (Ps. 90:4)."

    Rambam does not set the time at 6000 years. He says Hashem will send Moshiach when He has determined to. We are guessing about 6000 years. Indeed consider the problem if it actually means 6001 (1 - 1000, 1001 - 2000, ... 5001 - 6000) and people get upset about Moshiach not coming in 6000 Or indeed, consider the upset if people are off in when during the year. Cheis HaEigel occurred because of a one day miscalculation.

    Although some scholars believed that G'd has set aside a specific date for the coming of the Moshiach, most authorities suggest that the conduct of mankind will determine the time of the Moshiach's coming. In general, it is believed that the Moshiach will come in a time when he is most needed (because the world is so evil), or in a time when he is most deserved (because the world is so good). For example, each of the following has been suggested as the time when the Moshiach will come:

    when all Israel repent a single day
    when all Israel observe a single sabbath properly
    when all Israel observe two sabbaths in a row properly
    in a generation that is totally innocent, or totally guilty
    in a generation that loses hope
    in a generation where children are totally disrespectful towards their parents and elders (commonly thought to be "our generation", in every generation!)

    But in the words of Rabbi Dr. David Berger:

    I am more than a bit disturbed when respected Orthodox organizations disseminate material stating as undeniable fact that the redemption must come before the year 6,000 in the Jewish calendar. Other messianic dates in the Talmud have passed, and Maimonides—in an explicit effort to discourage messianic calculation and obsession—made a point of emphasizing that even Chazal did not have a tradition regarding these matters (Hilchos Melachhim 12:2). Many years ago, a friend told me how a classmate of his in a traditionalist yeshiva had told him that if he would be alive in the year 6,000 and the Messiah would not have come, he would throw his tefillin on the ground and stomp on them. It is worth reemphasizing the prophet’s declaration: “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, nor are My ways your ways, declares the Lord. But as the heavens are high above the earth, so are My ways high above your ways, and my thoughts above your thoughts” (Isaiah 55:8-9).

  154. Leah: The possibility that Mashiach will be resurrected is mentioned in the Gemorrah in Sanhedrin. Yet, most of of our sages hold that the Resurrection of the Dead will take place AFTER the Messianic Era has commenced. But the possibility most assuredly does exist. I will not argue against it. How could I argue against Amoraim. But as mentioned before, when we daven Shabbat morning, the first brachah before Qriat Shma, we delineate that G-d is Great in all four "Worlds" (Olam HaZeh, Olam HaBa, Yemot HaMashiach, and Techiyat haMeitim). In that very ancient prayer, Yemot HaMashiach PRECEDES the Resurrection of the Dead. So Chaza"l have for the most part held that that is the order. Now, even though the order is delineated that Yemot HaMashiach should precede Techiyat HaMeitim, many have held that since Yemot HaMashiach comes in the merit of the Chessed of our Avot and Imahot (3 Patriarchs and 4 Matriarchs), they, those 7 forebears, will be resurrected first either just before or immediately after Mashiach arrives. Of course there are yichidim who do say that Mashiach himself might be included in that select group, but they are yichidim. The bulk of our sages think that Mashiach will come from the Land of the Living.

    One thing is for sure. If Mashiach "dies" for the sins of the generation before coming back from the dead, he dies so that those in that generation do NOT have to die or suffer for the Messianic Age to commence with them alive and well. Only the one who suffers receives "reward" for that suffering in this world and in the next world. Others who receive benefit from his suffering ONLY receive that benefit in Olam HaZeh or the physical world of Yemot HaMashiach. Nowhere in the annals of Jewish thought and practice, is the World to Come, of those who believed he suffered for them, secured by virtue of the fact that he suffered. It is a bizarre concept and not a Jewish one even in the slightest sense. If Xtians want to believe that, they believe such nonsense at their own risk. They may go up to Heaven after 120 years, and when they arrive there, they will be asked why they believed such nonsense. You and I are being judged for who you and I are and what you and I did and how much you and I repented in the fullest sense during our lifetimes.

  158. May Moshiach alreadu come because the longer we wait, the more nonsense I read by commenters. H' promised us Moshiach will come, whether we are good or bad. We know that he will come with glory if we are good and not so glorious if we are bad (wars and the bad prophecies). We also know that we are in the pre-Moshiach era and thus H' hastens the geula because it is in its time. When reading about him not coming, c'v, by the year 6000, it becomes laughable and shows there is little emunah amongst our people, unfortunately. One of the signs is the lack of emunah and rise of athiesm in the world which we are now seeing. Because of modern tech, many see themselves as gods. We just need to keep the FAITH - EMUNAH!

    Would like to comment about the comments on Sharon, whom it seems likely might have been a reincarnation of Herod. Sharon's mother was not Jewish, as most already know and also read where we are not sure of a kosher conversion. Herod was a Roman slave and was not Jewish (whether he converted or not means nothing). He was a murderer and murdered all the great Sages of that time, except for one whom he blinded and then asked forgiveness and advice from Ben Buta, the blinded Sage, what to do to make up for his sins and was told by the Sage to rebuild the Temple.

    Ta'anis 10a (Mishnah - R. Gamliel): We start to request rain on the Cheshvan 7, so the slowest travelers (who came for Sukos) will reach the Pras river. In Bavel we delay requesting, lest rain harm produce in the field. Also in Eretz Yisrael they should delay, due to returning travelers! Rambam (Hilchos Tefilah 2:16): From Cheshvan 7 we begin to request rain in Eretz Yisrael. In Bavel, Surya, Mitzrayim and places close to them and similar to them, we begin on the 60th day after the equinox. dafyomi

    This was also stated by Rabbi Mendel Kessin. There cannot be any peace with inherent haters and enemies of Israel!

    When will our leadership and politicians acknowledge this. When will the leftists and self-hating Jews recognize this fact? Never I suppose.

  168. "Defense officials think rockets were intentionally fired from Syria, contrary to official report. 'We fear this will become routine.’” “Iran has an unequivocal interest in an escalation on our border,” he said, according to NRG, explaining that Iran “collects terrorists from the whole Shiite-Islamic world and establishes militias. So they still aren’t a military threat in the Golan, but later Iran apparently intends to approach the Israeli border via Hezbollah.” ArutzSheva

    Are we looking at the next war? With Iranians in Syria?

  174. Said R' Nir ben Artzi (Rosh HaShana)

    Trump came to expel the Jews from the United States and to strengthen the Jews in the Land of Israel, and if he did not do so, the Holy One, blessed be He, would give him work to keep him busy in the United States.

    Current situation

    Under Trump, anti-Semitic incidents in U.S. surged 76 percent in first half of 2017

    The increase can be attributed to an environment in which 'extremists feel emboldened,' Anti-Defamation League CEO Jonathan Greenblatt says...

    Could I once more ask you to post the link to my latest blog post? This is an important one that I think your readers should be made aware of. Please read what I found out today!

    Thanks. It refers in part to the California fires that took place on Sukkot; and implications for us, here in Israel. We will need a lot of Tefillot!

  177. On the soil of Syria, Tehran has defeated both Europe and America.

    Without the world understanding what is happening, the arrangements Russia and Iran are now imposing on Syria will spark a chain reaction entailing a larger influx of refugees and Europe’s irreversible descent. The Atlantic Ocean is not wide enough to protect North America from this calamity. Thus do Iran’s ayatollahs plan to destroy the infidel, permissive, drunk, materialist West: by banishing additional millions of wretched Syrians to the lands of heresy, the nemeses of the ayatollahs.

  179. Said Rabbi Meir Kahana

    I do not even bother any longer to persuade Jews of the halachic obligation to live in Eretz Yisrael, of the positive reason for going there. They will not go. Together they sit in the fleshpots, in a sensational display of Jewish unity against leaving the golden land. Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, ultra-Orthodox, all bound in a pledge of allegiance to the good life and all that for which it stands.

    I can only warn them about the ultimate halachic scholar for the Jew in the Exile. Who is that? Why, surely, the gentile.

  183. Part of the Snake-Like Trump's peace plan - a plan suicidal to Israel

    Can Netanyahu say 'no' to Trump?

    Reports dribbling in to Jerusalem over the past few days indicate that US officials are enthusiastic about the Palestinian reconciliation agreement between Fatah and Hamas. The news came as no surprise to the Israeli leadership...

    All indications are that the United States has no intention of giving up. There are an increasing number of leaks from Washington about the upcoming peace initiative. They seem to be saying that they will not force anything on either party, but at the same time, they certainly intend to present the parties with the "ultimate deal." Will this be the first time that President Donald Trump forces Netanyahu's hand and drags him to the negotiating table?


    Trump the Snake-Like wants to attain the ultimate real estate deal of the century and get the Nobel Peace Price. He supports the Saudi peace plan and doesn't care less about Israel.

  186. Neshama: We have been saying that since Shmini Atzereth, the mentioning of the power of Wind and Rain, but we have not been davening for rain until now. Tonight we begin Tal UMatar leBracha in the ninth bracha of Shmonah Esrei. Dew and Rain for a blessing.... We start praying for rain in Eretz Yisrael to fall. Tonight is Zayin MarCheshvan, the exact day that Donald Trump was elected President of the United States last year.

  187. DS, exactly what are we supposed to do with this information if we are unfortunate enough to be living in the US? Cry and panic? If there is an EMP, only Hashem can help us, or we are doomed. Ein Od Milevado. It only happens with His permission and He will need to kick up His miracle machine a few notches to rescue those of us who are serving Him regularly and with sincerity.

  188. Rachel,

    Tthe various authors have recommendations on what to do, whether there is an EMP or not. Steve Olsen recommends buying a scanner, so you will be able to hear news on different frequencies. Besides that, preppers have for the longest time recommended having sufficient non-perishable foods, water, cash on hand, even silver coins, batteries, etc. to be able to survive for a few months without communications or stores functional. Jews in the cities should try to avoid being in large cities during that fateful week-end, mostly because of the threat of violence by Antifa and co. The groups are targeting police mostly, but civilians will end up caught up too if they find themselves in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    Preppers have prepped for years now waiting for just such an event!

    Besides that, Jews have been warned over and over and over to come home to Eretz Yisrael, but the majority of Jews have no interest in that. I couldn't agree more with Rav Meir Kahane, quotation above provided by Meir:

    "I do not even bother any longer to persuade Jews of the halachic obligation to live in Eretz Yisrael, of the positive reason for going there. They will not go. Together they sit in the fleshpots, in a sensational display of Jewish unity against leaving the golden land. Reform, Conservative, Orthodox, ultra-Orthodox, all bound in a pledge of allegiance to the good life and all that for which it stands.I can only warn them about the ultimate halachic scholar for the Jew in the Exile. Who is that? Why, surely, the gentile."

    Of course in case of an CME caused EMP we are all in the same boat.

    As for the rest and Hashem, it is as you say. Tefillah, Teshuvah, Tzedakah, Maavirin et Roa Hagezera.

  190. Said R' Nir ben Artzi now almost two years ago - Parashat Bo, 29 Tevet (10/1/16)

    All of the Jews living abroad, G'd is warning them to urgently come to the holy land of Israel! If they don't make Aliyah, they will lose - G'd never loses. Anti-Semitism in the world, ISIS and extreme Islamists, will toss them from their homes and work and will take their property; they will be left with nothing. It is better to come to Israel now with Joy, to sell your property at any price, than be thrown to the streets. These are harsh but true things. There is no choice; the words are harsh in order to save Jews living abroad. ISIS, Muslims, and anti-Semitism are destroying all of Europe and the United States. If the Jews don't wake up, there will come a time when they cannot run, it will be too late to come to Israel. If there are Jews married to gentiles - they need to come to Israel and convert them. Israel is the mother and father of all of the Jews in the world.

  191. Ginno: I can't publish the third thing that Rav Yehudah Ze'ev Leibowitz zt"l, (the esteemed teacher of Rav Shalom Arush Shlit"a), said. I understand Rav Lazar Brody's reason for not posting that on his blog/ website. I have posted that he did say, as the situation in the US will inevitably deteriorate, that it might lead to pogroms. I have posted that in the past. I can't post the worst case scenario. Scaring the h-ll out of people does not lead to teshuvah. The other two things that Rav Leibowitz zt"l did say long before 2010 are:

    1. Uprisings and infighting will sweep through the Arab countries;

    2. Bibi will not be able to attack Iran; Hashem will use other means as He did with Sadaam Hussein.

    The third thing directly affecting the US has not yet happened.

  192. Yes, the Diaspora needs to be ingathered pronto. Shabbat Shalom.

    I have a court case next week against a reckless Arab Driver who smashed into my left rear fender with his East Yerushalayim company truck at the Ya'akov Pat/ Baram intersection. The wickedness of this man and his boss is business as usual in the Arab world. The accident was so obviously his fault that they have to lie and cheat in order to avoid justice, something that they can easily justify because they are Muslims and I am a Jew, and lying through their teeth is so obviously justified in their minds. I have no idea if I will have a fair judge or an Erev Rav Swamp Creature as my judge. It is in G-d's Hands.

    This is one of the reasons why I have published so sparsely recently. The court case is this coming Thursday. Pray for my success in getting justice, something that is difficult to dispense here in Israel these days. On that note, the Marsha'ah Miriam Naor has retired from her Court of Fools. May the Witch retire to a comfortable place in Hell.

  193. DS: I'm sick to death of hearing judgements from those who assume that everyone stuck in the US is here by choice. Some of us have to go down with the ship because we can't abandon elderly and ailing parents who won't budge and extended families that are stubborn. This chicken little sky is falling nonsense helps no one. I strongly doubt that Hashem's faithful servants here (and you have no idea the immense Torah scholarship and chessed that goes on here by people who are otherwise "clueless" because they don't go online) will be let down by the Holy One Blessed Is He. I have to keep reminding myself the small paragraph following Aleinu, and not fear the destruction of the wicked when it comes. Hashem will not abandon His devoted ones.

  194. Shabbat Shalom. Amen to your last comment. While reading it, just can't help wanting to either cry or laugh at the insane situation where living in Eretz Yisrael and you have to worry about this court case because of fifth column invaders in the Land who usually have the upper hand because of those who rule in the court and at the helm. H' bless you with hatzlacha rabah!

  195. Rachel,

    I am not trying to scare people "stam", i.e. just so: I see my role as alerting you, not scaring you. I have done my job, I have warned. Now it's up to people to decide what to do with my warnings. I am not doing this for myself, I am doing it because I care about my fellow Jews in Chutz Laaretz: I spend an lot of time abroad for family reasons, I care about them a lot and worry about them a lot too, you have no idea how much. I wish I could only tell all Jews in the world: please come home, please come home! And by the way I am very aware of the tremendous Chessed and kindness of numerous Jews in the US; nobody is judging anybody; there is no reason to get all angry and upset.

    Shavuah Tov

  197. Neshama: It poured in Yerushalayim over Shabbat! Pray for rain on the 7th of Cheshvan, and watch it rain on the 8th!

    For those who want to inquire with Rav Lazer Brody shlit"a about the 3rd prediction of the saintly Rav Yehudah Ze'ev Leibowitz zt"l that he said before he died, please contact Rav Brody from his contact information on his website/blog about the details. One could possibly figure it out on their own from what I wrote about it above, but the purpose of this blog is NOT to scare the hell out of people. Scaring the hell out of people would accomplish very little. Very few would listen. So if you want to be pro-active about what eventually will happen to American Jewry, please consult with Rav Lazer Brody. You can guess though. The end will be worse than pogroms. Neither I nor this blog are the addresses whose brains need to be picked in order to discuss this matter. It is not a pleasant subject in the same way that talking about the death of 2 billion people is a pleasant subject as a result of procrastinating with North Korea in order to avoid war at this time. Procrastinating for two or three years will lead to the inevitable death of 1/3 of the world's population. If my blog were geared toward that, I would be depressed and my readers would be depressed. Very little would be accomplished in the areas of learning and growth.

    Another Zeev, Zeev Jabotinsky traveled all over Eastern Europe in the mid to late 1930s. He warned the Jews of Eastern Europe from pulpits that were occasionally open for him to speak from that "Er kumt". He (Hitler) was coming! They laughed at him and scorned him. They called him a dirty Zionist as if being one was a dirty word. They were determined to prove him wrong by vowing to stay in Poland until the day that they died. "Po Lin" they would tell Jabotinsky. (Remember Lin means to lodge as in to lodge in a hotel.) "Here will will lodge" ostensibly for the next 600 years even if that kept them there way beyond the year 6000. They were not leaving Po Lin until they were brought out in a casket, buried 6 feet under in its soil, or burnt to a crisp in an Oven. And so it was. You think for one minute that I am going to change anyone's mind on this issue if the great Zeev Jabotinsky zt"l spoke from the pulpits of the synagogues of Eastern Europe, and that was their response?
