Hallel - Praise, Gratitude and Thanks to Hashem for all His Miracles especially now in Operation Protective Edge! Nishmat Kol Chai & The Pollard Connection

bs"d


Over 2,000 rockets have been fired at Israel and there has been only one fatality from the rockets. Baruch Hashem bli ayin hara.  Let us praise Hashem for His continuous miracles and for protecting us! May we have no more fatalities from the ground operation as well and may Hashem protect and guard each and every Israeli Soldier in harms way!

It can not be denied that there is a G-d in Heaven who is protecting us because statistically there is no other explanation.  Similarly this happened when the 39 Scuds fell in 2001. Over 5,000 rockets hit Gush Katif in the 4 years leading up to their expulsion in 2005 and the miracles are documented in the Gush Katif Pesach Hagaddah. Miracles of the 1967 War are well documented...Not to mention the miracles of 1948 and every subsequent war.....

Please Father in Heaven, keep Kerry (happenstance) out of the picture.... We depend on You Alone.......Thank you Hashem for your ongoing miracles and for watching over us.... Hinei Lo yanum velo Yishan Shomer Yisroel. The Guardian of Israel never slumbers or sleeps!

There is no one that we can lean upon except Our Father in Heaven! Therefore....

Let us Sing Praise to Hashem....Ain Anachnu Maspikim Lehodos Lecha....! 

 I searched online for an English Translation of this expression of thanks and gratitude to Hashem and I found it on Jonathan Pollard's website!  I can't think of a greater person who in spite of all his trials and tribulations, and all his years of suffering due to anti-Israel sentiment  would publicize our need to constantly Praise Hashem! 

 Let us not forget Jonathan Pollard and pray for him along with all the other Soldiers fighting on our behalf! 

Understanding Nishmat Kol Chai & The Pollard Connection  
J4JP Release - July 11, 2003 - Addendum #1 

"Were our mouth as full of song as the sea, and our tongue as full of joyous song as its multitude of waves, and our lips as full of praise as the breadth of the heavens, and our eyes as brilliant as the sun and the moon, and our hands as outspread as the eagles of the sky and our feet as swift as hinds -- we still could not thank You sufficiently, HaShem our God and God of our forefathers, and to bless Your Name for even one of the thousand thousand, thousands of thousands and myriad myriads of favors, miracles and wonders that you performed for our ancestors and for us."  

What is Nishmat Kol Chai?
Nishmat Kol Chai is a song of praise and thanksgiving to the Almighty. Apart from its place in the Jewish liturgy on the Sabbath and Holidays and at the Passover Seder, Nishmat Kol Chai is a powerful "segula" which brings great blessing to whomever says this prayer at any time. People in need of a livelihood, marriage, children, health and/or healing, protection from danger, and success in all endeavors, can pray for these things by saying Nishmat Kol Chai. While praying Nishmat Kol Chai a person can keep other people in mind for a blessing or a healing as well.
What is Zikui HaRabim?
Any person who facilitates or enables the public to do a mitzvah is doing a meta mitzvah called Zikui HaRabim, "giving merit to the many". Our sages tell us that the blessing that accrues from Zikui HaRabim is immeasurable and continues throughout the generations until eternity for the individual and for their descendants.
What is the Pollard Connection to Nishmat Kol Chai?
With the blessing of His Eminence HaRav Mordecai Eliyahu, Esther and Jonathan Pollard have undertaken an initiative to make it possible for EVERYONE to say Nishmat Kol Chai! How? By doing a mass distribution of this prayer along with a Special Prayer for Jonathan. By doing Zikui HaRabim in this manner, enormous merit will accrue both for Jonathan and for the Jewish People and this can only help to speed Jonathan's release and the redemption of the Nation.
