Handing the Keys to Moshiach

Rabbi Moshe Ben Tov [1930 - July 16, 2010] was a renowned Kabbalist, known for his unique ability to read mezuzot, earning him the title “Roeh Mezuzot,” or “the Mezuzah Seeker.” Through his extraordinary spiritual insight, Rabbi Ben Tov could discern the past and present conditions of individuals by examining their mezuzot. This practice made him a revered figure in the world of Jewish mysticism, and people from all walks of life sought his blessings and guidance.  

During  a visit to the Prime Minister's Office, Rabbi Ben Tov made a remarkable statement to Netanyahu.

“It is very important that your love of Israel continue until the Moshiach comes because you are going to stay in office and are going to meet him,” Rabbi Ben Tov said to Netanyahu. “You are the one who will give him the keys to this office.”

The Month of Av and the War with Iran

Miracles can happen on Tisha b'Av, according to this short video Why Now? The Month of Av and the War with Iran, which is in Hebrew, but for me it was auto-dubbed into English.  

Iran is the head of the snake, Hashem is performing miracles for us in the 9 days.   With the help of Hashem we hope to see a great miracle on Tisha b'Av.   It is recommended to attack on this day for this reason.  

IY"H Tisha b'Av will no longer be a bad day for the people of Israel  - these are days that,  with the help of Hashem, will turn into joy and gladness.  We need to hold on to the name of Hashem and await Redemption and we will see great miracles.

5 Av - Yarzheit Arizal

The Arizal [1534-1572] - Rabbi Isaac Luria was the most famous Kabbalist in the city of Safed, Israel who became known as the "Holy Arizal" or ARI, an acronym for “The G-dly Rabbi Isaac of Blessed Memory.”

The Arizal passed away at the age of 38, and it was only during the last two years of his life that he met his foremost disciple, Rabbi Chaim Vital. The Arizal himself never wrote any books, however all his words were faithfully recorded by Rabbi Chaim Vital in what is known as Kitvei Ari, the “writings of the Arizal.” The Kitvei Ari is the key to the secrets of the Zohar, and it was the Arizal who formulated the Kabbalah into a comprehensive system. Rabbi Chaim Vital writes in the name of the Arizal that, “It is a Mitzvah to reveal this wisdom.” Until the time of the Arizal, knowledge of Kabbalah was not known outside of the tightly knit circle of the tzaddikim.

Disclaimer: I must add this... no-one can definitely pinpoint a date for Moshiach's arrival. Moshiach can come at any time. 

If you don't have young kids, then you don't understand.  They've been saying "six seven" for a long time. It's a chant, and as soon as they hear anyone say 6 7 they all start screaming "Six Seven".

 

Yoel 1:1

And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out My spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy.....

and if you still don't understand..... it represents the final digits of the Hebrew years 5786 and 5787.... when we are expecting our Redeemer. 

Maimonides' [Rambam] Thirteen Principles of Faith. Specifically, the 12th principle states: "I believe with complete faith in the coming of Moshiach, and although he may tarry, nevertheless, I wait every day for him to come".

Subtle Slander

"These are the words that Moshe spoke to all Israel" [Devarim 1:1]

Why, asked the Megaleh Amukos [R' Nosson Nota Shapira] does the verse state "...that Moshe spoke to all Israel" and not simply "...that Moshe spoke to Israel"?

The acronym of the word "eileh" he answered is "avak lashon hara" - the dust of evil speech - subtle types of slander.

Chazal state in Maseches Bava Basra [165b] "Most individuals transgress the sin of theft, a small minority transgress the sin of illicit relations, but all transgress the sin of avak lashan hara."  The grave sin of lashon hara is a sin that all of Israel might come to transgress, so all Jews must be cautioned of the danger it presents.  The verse therefore states: "These are the words that Moshe spoke to all Israel."
