Gog, Cyrus, Marcus Aurelius.... take your pick

Large signs bearing the image of US President Donald Trump now dominate the billboards of Jerusalem and Tel Aviv, as Israel braces for 24 to 48 hours of powerful emotion—the long-awaited return of most of the 48 hostages still held in Gaza, and the arrival of the man many Israelis credit for making it happen. Dr. Mike Evans, founder of the Friends of Zion Museum, launched a nationwide billboard campaign this week declaring, “Cyrus the Great is alive.”

  1. First and foremost we all should be thanking HaShem, King of the Universe. HaShem love for Klal Yisroel comes with no strings attached.

  2. Rav Yitzchok Yosef: Trump is a Righteous Gentile

    ".... thanks to a kingdom of kindness, America, and the Righteous Among the Nations, the US President.”

    This is interesting to note,

    "Rav Yosef also discussed the halachic aspects surrounding this momentous event, explaining that the returning hostages would have special reason to recite the Shehecheyanu blessing multiple times over Sukkos. “There are three Shehecheyanu brachos here,” he explained. “They will bless for the sukkah, for the daled minim, and for their parents: Shehecheyanu for seeing them again after two years. It will be a sanctification of God’s name.”

    1. Mike Evans is not Jewish. He is a long-time missionary residing in Jerusalem for decades and presumes to speak for Klal Yisrael regularly. He is a menace.

    2. Exactly....and as for Trump....is he really helping Israel? 900 soldiers died, and Hamas refusing to disarm and Trump is hinting at a fakestinian state. Which would mean carving E"Y into indefensible borders. Trump knows this very well, he isnt an idiot at all, but unfortunately I do believe he is a menace. Trump is on Trumps side every carrot is followed by a stick.
      They have turned E"Y into a protectoratewhich means they get to call the shots and we are expected to blindly obey.....this sounds strangely familia, No?

  3. How about Rothschild (the first) and sir Moses Montefiore reincarnations? Yes they were Jewish, but

  4. Trump is most likely Gog and definitely is not righteous. Sorry that was an insane comment.

  5. Could he be Armilus? Is that why the gematria of DJT is the same as Moshiach ben David... because he is his nemesis ? Just suggesting.

  6. The chief Rabbi of Yisrael says that President Trump is one of the righteous of the Nations for his efforts that brought about the freeing of the living hostages. Apart from many benefits to Israel and the Jewish people. (There are many anecdotes about his generosity such as freeing R. Rubashkin etc.)

    Please avoid insulting a ‘king and powerful leader’ who has done much good to Yidden. The Sages of Gemara give proper honor to the righteous of the Nations. Nobody asks you to speculate on negative. When there are great Rabbis we honor, be a little humble to control your opinion, you do not have the proper experience or Torah wisdom to give your ill informed opinion, especially because there are great ramifications. A hint to the wise is sufficient.

    Shana Tova umetuka to every one.
    R. Wing.

      Anonymous from 3:32, unless you are a Tzadik or one of the Lamed Vovnicks your comment is probably wrong. Mr. Trump is no saint, yes he has done some good things for Israel, but what is underlining reason. Trust only in HaShem!
