Some comments...

In several posts in my blog Shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com, I compared Eretz Yisroel to a precious Violin and the Torah to musical notes and Am Yisroel to the virtuoso violinist.

There is poetic justice that the name of the latest owner of this Stradivarius violin is Joshua Bell whose very name "rings a bell"! :)

Joshua, Yehoshua is mentioned in the Torah reading of Shemini Atzeret in Israel and Simchat Torah in the Diaspora.

"Joshua" in the time of Moses was the quintessential student, the G-d Chosen successor to Moshe Rabbeinu. He is the leader chosen to lead the Nation of Israel to conquer the Land. 

On Shemini Atzeret and Simchat Torah we read

9 And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom, because Moses had laid his hands upon him. And the children of Israel obeyed him, and they did as the Lord had commanded Moses. ט וִֽיהוֹשֻׁ֣עַ בִּן־נ֗וּן מָלֵא֙ ר֣וּחַ חָכְמָ֔ה כִּֽי־סָמַ֥ךְ משֶׁ֛ה אֶת־יָדָ֖יו עָלָ֑יו וַיִּשְׁמְע֨וּ אֵלָ֤יו בְּנֵֽי־יִשְׂרָאֵל֙ וַיַּֽעֲשׂ֔וּ כַּֽאֲשֶׁ֛ר צִוָּ֥ה יְהֹוָ֖ה אֶת־משֶֽׁה:

And the name "Bell" alludes to the Liberty Bell. The Liberty Bell has a verse from Leviticus, Vayikra 25:10 Parshat Behar engraved on it that talks about the Jubilee year.

This particular verse follows several verses talking about Shabbat Haaretz, the Sabbatical year that comes every 7 years.

https://www.chabad.org/library/bible_cdo/aid/9926/jewish/Chapter-25.htm

10 And you shall sanctify the fiftieth year, and proclaim freedom [for slaves] throughout the land for all who live on it. It shall be a Jubilee for you, and you shall return, each man to his property, and you shall return, each man to his family.

Blessing for the upcoming year:

May our Precious Violin the Precious Holy Land Of Israel be recognized and treated with the proper respect in  accordance with its inherent value. 

May this Precious Land only be in the hands of virtuoso violinists, the Nation of Israel, playing the proper notes,  the Holy Torah, so that the entire world can enjoy its Heavenly music!

Pulling Our Troops From Afghanistan - Demand for Transparency

Written by Paul Fried 

Regardless of what you think of President Biden and his ability to lead, there are a number of people involved in making decisions such as pulling our troops out of Afghanistan. I cannot believe that our leaders are so incompetent that they would do this knowing that they are creating a terrorist country. Knowing that they are putting Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East and our only allie at risk. I cannot believe our leaders would turn this country over to a known terrorist group who has a history of murdering homosexuals and demeaning and degrading women. There is something very wrong here. Make no mistake about it there was a deal made behind the scenes. This is not what America stands for. We must demand transparency from our leaders. I don't care what side of the isle you sit, this not who we are as a country.

Fwd: My Letter to Unilever

Bsd

https://www.unileverusa.com/contact/contact-form/

To Whom It May Concern:

I am using my social conscience and G-d Given values to boycott Unilever!

I am a G-d fearing individual, and a proud Believer in the Bible. 

FYI. The Bible clearly delineates the boundaries of Israel.

FYI. Our Almighty G-d, Creator of Heaven and Earth...Owner of the Land...Has given the Seed of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob the descendents of 12 Tribes, the Children of Israel (Jacob), the Land of Israel as an Eternal inheritance! 

FYI The Palestinians are not even biological descendents of the Canaanites who were dispossessed as per G-d's Will!

Israel's Heritage, its Eternal Inheritance,  includes the heartland, namely Judea and Samaria!!! 

Temple Mount, Judea and Samaria are the Bible Belt traveled by our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob!

If Jews have no rights to Temple Mount and the territory of Judea and/or Samaria, than what gives them the rights to any part of the Land of Israel?

Israels enemies know this.

Israel's enemies, those who are pushing BDS  want to boycott all of Israel and basically wipe Israel off the map G-d forbid! 

Its no secret.

This phenomenon is not new.

Fyi The Land of Israel was  renamed to Palestine following the destruction of the Temple, by those who wished to erase Israel's claim to their G-d Given Land.

Yet history has shown that only once the Jewish People started returning to their ancient homeland, did the Arabs follow.

Read Mark Twain! The Land laid barren for thousands of years.

It was waiting for the Nation of Israel to return as was Promised in the Torah. The Land of Israel remains loyal to the Nation of Israel. 

Only then does the Land begin to bloom!!!

The Green Line is testimony. The Jewish side is green, blooming and flourishing. What was not under Israeli control, still lay barren. 

Sadly, the British, following the Mandate of Palestine, in the 1930s, reneged on their Mandate to reestablish Israel as the National Homeland for the Jews.

In fact the British did the opposite of their Mandate. They closed the doors to Palestine to Jews and opened it to non Jews.

Had they not violated their Mandate, surely many of the 6,000,000 Jews who perished in the Holocaust would have had a safe haven to run to and their lives could have been spared.

FYI For thousands of years Jews pray to return to Zion.

How dare Unilever and it's subsidiary, Ben and Jerry be so arrogant  as to choose Judea and Samaria  and only Judea and Samaria to boycott in the entire world?

They reject G-ds Choice of who inherits His Land!!!

They reject G-d's Laws of Universal morality also known as the 7 Noahide Laws.

They do this because they are G-dless and they wish for man made values to replace G-d's laws. 

They want to replace Laws of Universal Morality, laws for a civilized society  going back to the beginning of time with their own contrived man made unG-dly values.

Do we really need to eat Unilever and Ben and Jerry's ice cream and use their products?

G-d fearing people prefer to give business to companies who are G-d fearing.

Thank you for clarifying your position on the matter.
