Someone asked me to help them watch this video with the sub-titles .... anyway I started to transcribe it, and so here is the beginning of the shiur transcribed, I will add more to it a bit later. To see the sub-titles click on the Settings cog and navigate to English and click on the CC.
Thank you to Dave for sending this link.
Rav Ron Chaya
The Yanuka said last week Moshiach is arriving very soon so we are preparing, we believe it !Does Moshiach know he is Moshiach?
In the writings of the Ari, in the beginning he does not know he is Moshiach and then one day G-d reveals to him who will be Moshiach, and he tells no-one but after a while he tells a few Tzaddikim.
We heard already two weeks ago that Moshiach has revealed himself to two hidden Tzaddikim, and they know he is Moshiach. One of those is Rav Kook, we believe, and he believes he knows who Moshiach is.
Moshiach is waiting for the green light from G-d and when this happens he will reveal himself and he is going to do actions where all mankind will know He is Moshiach. I don't know what he is going to do but it will go very quickly - there is something very interesting in Eruvin that says Moshiach cannot come on Shabbat because a day before the prophet Eliyahu must come and announce His coming. If he comes on a Friday we are preparing for Shabbat and we are busy, who has time for that, especially if it's a winter Shabbat we don't have time, so it won't be a Friday. As soon as Moshiach comes all the people will recognise him and will help us prepare for Shabbat..
When Moshiach comes it's immediate and very fast. When Moshiach comes we make four blessings.,,,

What is the significance of "the ships of Kittim"?? Thanks. Yisroel

which I don't have time to do now, but I think all the explanations are in there somewhere, I don't actually remember, but I think it's exciting LOL I just hope Rav Chaya is right :)
"Jerusalem is the safest place in the world" quoting Rav Chaya who was quoting the Tzaddik haDor at the time.
This is during the time of the big war Gog u Magog.
This is exactly what the Lubavitcher Rebbe said.... it will be a war around but not IN Jerusalem.
Shalom aleichm!!!! Great to hear from you Divid!!!! I am great. We're living in Lakewood. Be in touch Yisroel.killian@gmail.com
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and insights about Moshiach and the teachings of the Yanuka. It's always inspiring to hear how deeply our community is connected to these beliefs and traditions.
However, I must admit, I have some reservations about the practicalities of this anticipated move to Eretz Yisroel. While I understand the profound significance of Moshiach's arrival and the potential for a transformative era, there are some logistical and personal concerns that weigh heavily on my mind.
Firstly, I've built my dream home here in Lakewood, tailored to my family's needs with a large kitchen, a finished basement for the boys to learn, and ample space for everyone. It's not just a house; it's a home filled with memories, hard work, and love. The idea of leaving this behind for a cramped apartment in Eretz Yisroel is daunting, to say the least.
Secondly, the practical challenges are considerable. I have six kinderlach, bli ayin hara, and they all need their own space. The living conditions in some areas of Eretz Yisroel, especially the more densely populated ones, are not comparable to what we have here. The dust, the lack of central air, and the overall environment pose significant concerns for us.
Additionally, the education and stability of my children are paramount. We are blessed with fantastic yeshivos and Bais Yaakovs here, and uprooting them from their friends and rebbeim to an unfamiliar system is a significant worry. The overcrowded classrooms and different educational standards are a stark contrast to the structured and supportive environment we have here.
I know some may view these concerns as trivial in light of the greater spiritual significance of Moshiach's arrival, but they are very real and impactful to our daily lives. It's not that I don't believe or anticipate Moshiach's coming, but the idea of such a radical change brings about anxiety and hesitation.
I've also noticed that many who fervently speak about Moshiach coming might not fully grasp the practical implications. Maintaining a home, managing children's behavior in a new environment, and adapting to a completely different lifestyle are challenges that can't be overlooked.
While I deeply respect the teachings and prophecies, and I truly hope for Moshiach's arrival, I believe it's important to balance our spiritual aspirations with practical considerations. Perhaps Moshiach's coming will indeed bring about miraculous changes that will make these concerns moot, but until then, I remain cautiously contemplative about what lies ahead.
Chaya S. - Lakewood
When Moshiach Ben Yosef reveals himself and we see that he's real, and he starts doing his thing what does that mean for the rest of the world at that moment? What is supposed to happen outside of Israel? Rfael Yaakov
Chaya S, I understand your concerns. I also wish to make aliyah, and the logistics are overwhelming to say the least. I am constantly asking Hashem for His guidance, and direction and will for my life and then the ability to do so! Avigail
Shalom to everyone from Brazil.
When I was in Israel a few months ago, as I walked towards the kotel, as my sandals got wet in the dirty water on the way, I couldn't think of anything other than dream of a different and NEW clear path to the temple. Clean, beautiful and not so dark and closed.
I prayed along the way, not only for peace, but for new roads as well.
My faith in the new times to come is so firm that I am already praying for sustainable and modern buildings, and with beautiful and welcoming communities for the future of Israel.
Sometimes I look at the map of Israel that I have here and try to understand why God left a vast area uninhabited until now.
I think maybe it was already reserved for the future.
I try to understand the post and the words above that Chaya spoke, as this kind of living must be the same as what Hashem desires for all of us.
Beautiful places in Shamayim and on earth down too!
Then I see with my mind, something totally different, unprecedented and innovative in areas not yet populated in Israel.
A world of totally different and new constructions, and why not say, also totally FOCUSED on the Kingdom of God.
And with this feeling I look at the map of Israel that I have, already dreaming of these new spaces that combine spirituality and healthy living.
I pray that the arrival of Mashiach makes EVERY PLACE and the new areas of Israel a reference for the world, of loving, healthy and happy communities.
I look to the SOUTH MAP and dream that buildings never seen anywhere in the world will appear there.
When I walked towards the Kotel I also imagined very beautiful things on the way, and while my feet now going to a cherry blossom park (winter here), I continue walking, imagining, figuring, conceiving and asking Shamaiym for a new very beautiful and CLEAR PATH to the temple.
That's how my mind works dear Chaya!
A new path in the desert. With good eyes. Like this:

So far no one has chipped in.
For Chaya S. please read This Land is My Land by Rav Chaim Kramer.
It's true that any change in a person's life can evoke the feelings that you write about. I honestly wish you well, but the truth is that Hashem could take away the palace that you have ensconced yourself in with or without Eretz Yisrael. That's just a fact.
Regarding change, and children, children do need stability, but true stability is transmitted to children by the parents. You set the tone.
Anyway, please read the book and you will understand why you have all these doubts.
Miria from Brazil: Your lovely comment is such an inspiring pickup
for all of us. May those beautiful days soon be a reality! We're closer than
we think!

Gina, Thank you for your very generous donation. $36 You and your mishpacha should be g'bentched!!
Living in Israel is according to some (maybe not all) rishonim a mitzvah NOW regardles of whether moshiach is coming or not. The Gra attempted, The Baal Shem Tov attempted, countless rishonim and achronim made the switch because the spiritual level of everything is so much higher in Israel. The midrash compares Israel to Jews and Shabbos. Just like you can have extremely fine non-Jews, according to Judaisim a Yiddisher neshama is something quite different. You can be an excellent Jew on Tuesday or Wednesday but it doesn;t compare to a Jew on Shabbos (even if it can't be scientifically proven). Likewise, you can be a good Jew in Lakewood or anywhere else in Galus, but it is not the same as that same person in Israel. It might be subtle, it might be hard to internalise when you are hot and sweaty and missing the gashmiyus, but this is what the midrash on Tehillim teaches.
No one should judge anyone, and as the Nesivos Shalom says, either you live in Israel or at the very least yearn to live in Israel. There are many stages to moving to Israel but the first stages are in the mind (making some sort of mental switch).
Hashem should continue to protect us and support us at every stage of our Journeys and may we all be worthy of experiencing the Geulah Shleimah today, and if it can't be today then I guess we will have to settle for tomorrow.
For Chaya S.
I reread your comment. It's interesting how you present a black and white picture, or white (Lakewood) and black (EY, chalila). That is not necessarily the reality but how your mind sees it. Do you realise that some people live in rather large homes in EY too? If you live in such a palace, you would probably be able to afford something nice here too. Again you don't have to live somewhere densely populated. There are haredi yishuvim, big houses, children running around. The dust? You don't have to live near the desert. You can have central air. The 'overall environment'? Rav Frand talks about how the goyish culture has permeated the yeshiva world in the US. Otoh, for example, in Yerushalayim even the so-called chilonim are huge baalei emuna, with Jewish values.
As for chinuch, of course there is an adjustment period, but it really is a matter of attitude. I met a French family who made aliya. The children said that their mother told them that they were going on a great adventure, and that is how they took it. If you make aliya and see everything with tsarat ayin, don't be surprised if you have unhappy children. And vice versa.
As for the level of the learning, there is no comparison between the level in Israel and the galut.
I am grateful for your account though. Some Jews would be very pressed to make aliya on account of health issues or the like. According to what you wrote, you could indeed make aliya, but choose not to. Aliya is not a 'nice to have', but is central to the geula process. Rav Shlomo Teichtel HYD, the Yanuka, Rav Dov Kook shlita. Rabbis in the galut will not tell you this, the opposite. It doesn't matter how august their stature is. The spies too were great spiritual leaders, who also btw outnumbered Yehoshua and Calev 5 to 1.
The Land of Israel is crying out for real Jews to come and claim their nachala. Whilst they refuse to do so, non Jews have taken their place, in the millions. If this is true for any Jew, how much more so for a frum Jew, who keeps Torah and mitzvot. Rav Alon Anava said that the more shomrei mitzvot Jews there are in EY, the stronger our spiritual and political hold on the land is. Your country needs you. Literally.
Thank you Dvorah for posting this video. I follow Rav Ron Chaya already many years. BH I understand french. Even tough he has been saying about Moshiach for many years, he is always so convincing and you feel he talks from the bottom of his hearth that he gives me so much chisuk (excitement).
Let me suggest you another fantastic one, very very different approach tough. Very deep. He speaks in hebrew:

I love this last comment.... so true!
I meant that I love the last comment by anonymous, to Chaya S.
I enjoyed the rabbis video but a few points GOG is from America/Britain :Germany =Nato that’s the head of the snake if you read ezikiel it’s the utmost north and if you take the earth and flatten it the utmost north is North America .plus it will be the superpower of the day which is USA . GoGandMagog is in stages stage 1- World War One and stage 2 World War Two which is possible
And likely that Russia and Georgia were Mesech and tubal
As Stalin was from Georgia .etc
Now is the 3rd phase which is th trying to create a one world government just as pharaoh did 4000 years ago and HaShem had to send Moshe to bail us out it will be a replay like that . And now it will be on a global scale as we are not scattered worldwide and we were condensed in Egypt back than.
The final redemption will be Epic B”h
15As in the days of your exodus from the land of Egypt, I will show him wonders. טוכִּימֵ֥י צֵֽאתְךָ֖ מֵאֶ֣רֶץ מִצְרָ֑יִם אַרְאֶ֖נּוּ נִפְלָאֽוֹת:
16Nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might-they shall place a hand upon their mouth; their ears shall become deaf. טזיִרְא֚וּ גוֹיִם֙ וְיֵבֹ֔שׁוּ מִכֹּ֖ל גְּבֽוּרָתָ֑ם יָשִׂ֚ימוּ יָד֙ עַל־פֶּ֔ה אָזְנֵיהֶ֖ם תֶּֽחֱרַֽשְׁנָה:
17They shall lick the dust as a snake, as those who crawl on the earth. They shall quake from their imprisonment; they shall fear the Lord, our God, and they shall fear you. יזיְלַֽחֲכ֚וּ עָפָר֙ כַּנָּחָ֔שׁ כְּזֹֽחֲלֵ֣י אֶ֔רֶץ יִרְגְּז֖וּ מִמִּסְגְּרֹֽתֵיהֶ֑ם אֶל־יְהֹוָ֚ה אֱלֹהֵ֙ינוּ֙ יִפְחָ֔דוּ וְיִֽרְא֖וּ מִמֶּֽךָּ:
18Who is a God like You, Who forgives iniquity and passes over the transgression of the remnant of His heritage? He does not maintain His anger forever, for He desires loving-kindness. יחמִי־אֵ֣ל כָּמ֗וֹךָ נֹשֵׂ֚א עָוֹן֙ וְעֹבֵ֣ר עַל־פֶּ֔שַׁע לִשְׁאֵרִ֖ית נַֽחֲלָת֑וֹ לֹֽא־הֶֽחֱזִ֚יק לָעַד֙ אַפּ֔וֹ כִּֽי־חָפֵ֥ץ חֶ֖סֶד הֽוּא:
19He shall return and grant us compassion; He shall hide our iniquities, and You shall cast into the depths of the sea all their sins. יטיָשׁ֣וּב יְרַֽחֲמֵ֔נוּ יִכְבֹּ֖שׁ עֲוֹֽנֹתֵ֑ינוּ וְתַשְׁלִ֛יךְ בִּמְצֻל֥וֹת יָ֖ם כָּל־חַטֹּאתָֽם:
20You shall give the truth of Jacob, the loving-kindness of Abraham, which You swore to our forefathers from days of yore. כתִּתֵּ֚ן אֱמֶת֙ לְיַֽעֲקֹ֔ב חֶ֖סֶד לְאַבְרָהָ֑ם אֲשֶׁר־נִשְׁבַּ֥עְתָּ לַֽאֲבֹתֵ֖ינוּ מִ֥ימֵי קֶֽדֶם:
Thank you Vanessa. It's so rare I get any positive attitude to my comments.
