Expect the Unexpected

Something to bear in mind as we watch current events:

The months of Adar are considered to have the power of “venahafoch hu”, turn things around.

Let Moshiach Come

 

Let [Moshiach] come, but let me not see him. [Sanhedrin 98b] 

The Sages knew that before the arrival of Moshiach, the world would be in a state which they did not want to be part of.  We are the generation who have chosen to be here, to live through the terrible times and greet Moshiach Tzidkeinu.  We all chose to be here, and here we are, as we sit and watch the terrible invasion of the Ukraine by the evil Putin.

But.... Putin is only doing Hashem's Will, as the hearts of the leaders of the world are in the Hands of Hashem.

Our hearts go out to the people of the Ukraine at this time.

Putin and the Jews, and Moshiach

This short video below is Rabbi Berel Lazar, Chief Rabbi of Russia, speaking about Moshiach. "Through the Eyes of Moshiach: Who Needs The Ideal World?"

You may also be interested to see this video: The Enigma of Putin and the Jews, where Rabbi Lazar is interviewed on the topic.  [sound is quite low, so if your computer volume is not loud enough -  like mine - try watching it on another device.

A Hint in the Numbers?

It's already Tuesday here in Australia.  Today's date is 22.02.2022 [21 Adar A]

We are in the 3,333rd year from Yetzias Mitzrayim.

All these recurring numbers, and each set adds up to 12. 

Twelve represents totality, wholeness, and the completion of God’s purpose. There are 12 tribes of Israel, 12 months in the year, and 12 houses of the zodiac [Genesis 27:20, 25:16; Exodus 24:4, 25:27; Ezekiel 43:16;Yoma 75b, 77b; Taanit 25a; Hullin 95].  [Source]

Our generation has all the signs of the generation before Moshiach.  The war of Gog u Magog appears to be starting.  Maybe these numbers are a hint that this year will see the completion of God's purpose.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and insights.
