Wisdom to the Wise

"He has imbued him with the spirit of God, with wisdom, with insight, and with knowledge, and with [talent for] all manner of craftsmanship" Vayakhel 35:31

The Midrash Rabbah states that Betzalel must have already possessed an extraordinary degree of wisdom even before he was blessed, for Hashem does not bestow wisdom upon an individual unless he is already wise.  This is as the verse states: "He gives wisdom to the wise" [Daniel 2:21]

To what can this be compared?  To a man who wanted to buy wine, oil, or honey, and walked into a store with an empty jug in hand.  If the storekeeper is intelligent, he does not have to ask the customer which of the three he wants to purchase.  All he needs to do is smell the man's jug; if it gives off the scent of wine, then he has come to purchase wine.  If, however, the scent is that of honey, then he has come to buy honey.

So it is with wisdom. When Hashem sees a person that has some wisdom, He fills him with more!

Wonders in the Heavens

"And I will show wonders in the Heavens and on the earth" [Yoel 3:3]

Here are some 30second videos [click full screen for best viewing] and some photos of weather events, as well as weird halos and colours around the sun and the moon caused by the planet/sun behind our sun.  All of these events, giant shelf clouds, and other strange clouds are being brought to us by the "Nibiru" system.  None of the photos are photo-shopped, mostly they are stills taken from live videos on TikTok, filmed by ordinary people all over the world.   

 

Shelf Cloud from another planet's atmosphere, is what they are saying

This is a rain bomb, from another planet's atmosphere

This is a rain bomb

Another rain bomb

Sun with yellow aura, from a close-by yellow planet

Since when did the moon have a rainbow halo

Rabbi Yuval Ovadia on "Planet X"

This is a re-posting from 2018.  Thank you Sherry for bringing it to my attention.  I think it is very relevant right now.  There's a lot more to come on this topic but for now, this is all I can manage.

The shiur includes the following information:

• Sources from the Torah and the Zohar
• This Star was seen in the war of Devorah and Sisera and will also be seen at the End of Days
• Which Rabbis have spoken about it, and why some Rabbis say it is nonsense
• The deliberate fake news and dates given on the internet purely to confuse people and cause them to think that it is not real, when it is in fact very real -  for example Obama Warns Americans
• It is not going to destroy the world
• Isaiah prophecies that those who try to escape by going into bunkers will just fall into another trap - they cannot run from Hashem 
• Rainbows, climate change, earthquakes, volcanoes, extreme weather
• How Gog u Magog will play out
• The government of Israel will stop functioning at the same time that Moshiach will be revealed
• The war against Moshiach ben David
• What kind of person Moshiach will be
• Nibiru is just a messenger of Hashem, we must do teshuvah [repent] - the effects of Nibiru are in our hands
• Moshiach is definitely coming soon and He will take the world into the new spiritual phase. 

Restoring Evil to Its Holy Source

"He forgives sins.... " [Ki Tisa 34:7]

The word for "forgive" here literally means "carry" or "lift". Based on this, the Baal Shem Tov taught that G-d elevates the sparks of holiness in the sin, for nothing - not even a sin - could exist unless it contained a spark of holiness. G-d returns them to their source. This is the essence of forgiveness.

Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi explained this idea as follows: It is indeed impossible to elevate a sinful act; such an act is evil, and the only proper treatment for it is to denounce it. 

In contrast, the power of desire vested in the act is not evil, for it is possible to utilize this power to desire good as well as evil. When we repent properly, we divest our power of desire of its veneer of evil and restore it to its holy source.

Purim 5783

Chag sameach everyone.  Sorry for the lack of posts, I haven't been feeling great lately, I think it is part of the suffering we all have to go through.

If you can't do much for Purim, at least give some tzadaka.  This can be done easily over the internet.  I know some people are homebound and may not even be able to hear the Megillah being read "live" and in person, unless they are fortunate enough to have someone come to their house and read it.

It seems a long time ago that I looked at a photo of a strange "planet" [moon?], seemingly covered in holes.  That same  planet is back again and starring in it's own cameo on the FAA Advisory camera.  It's part of the "Nibiru" system, and when I find out its name [someone has given them all names] I'll let you know.

Third Rome #3: Russia's Hidden Role in Hasidism and Zionism

Rabbi Efraim Palvanov 

How did events in the Russian Empire launch two transformative Jewish movements that changed the world? What role has Russia (particularly the KGB) played in the early years of the State of Israel, and the ongoing Arab-Israeli conflict? And what does it all have to do with ancient prophecies of Magog, Edom, and the "Third Rome"?
