Re: The Hebrew Language by Rabbi Avi Schwartz

Nice!

The Hebrew Language by Rabbi Avi Schwartz

A nation is known by several elements. One outstanding feature that tells of the origin and cultural makeup of a nation is language. And loyalty to language no matter how great the trials and tribulations a people endured reflects that people's commitment to the origin of that nation, especially in the case of an exiled people. If an exiled people uses its original language for thousands of years it means it identifies itself with the region of origination and/or subconsciously or consciously wants to return to it. 

Such is the case with the Jewish people. Of all the nations of the world it is only the Jews that speak, read and write Hebrew, a Semitic language of the middle east that was only used by the citizens of the Kingdom of Israel and Judea.

The fact that all scholarship, prayers, and cultural expressions were written in Hebrew throughout the last 20 centuries even after the fall of the Jewish state implies that the Jews and their descendants identified themselves as Middle-Eastern, exiled citizens of the fallen Jewish state who emotionally longed to return to its national homeland. 

Hence from a sociological, cultural and ethnic standpoint the modern Jews are the indigenous people of the Jewish homeland. To deny this is to engage in the ethnic cleansing of the Jewish homeland, a war crime that should not be allowed to continue. The Jewish People's claim to reestablishing their State and homeland has the credibility earned through unparalleled loyalty demonstrated through 2000 years of exile. The Jews' very allegiance to their middle eastern ancient Jewish state culture throughout the centuries is a superhuman achievement entitling them to be recognized as the legitimate heirs to the land of Israel by all peoples of principle.

Yezidi's Isis Genocide. Let us help them now before ISIS reaches Israel.

June 10, 2015 Never Again? The ISIS Genocide of Yazidis by Stephen Schwartz and Christopher Bilardi The Huffington Post  http://www.meforum.org/5313/yezidi-genocide 

Please watch this video posted Aug 20, 2014

Yalda Hakim goes to Dohuk in Northern Iraq where 200,000 refugees have arrived in the past few weeks fleeing ISIS in search of safety.These people in the videos are a peaceful, decent, civilized  people caring for their own. 

https://www.youtube.com/watch?t=269&v=brYm4g_KoVU

Surely, one can conclude that if ISIS had the opportunity, they would not hesitate in the least, G-d forbid, to attack Jews, behead the men and enslave the women,  no different than they are attacking Yazidis today and no different than in the times of Muhammad 1400 years ago.. 

It is therefore, not only a humanitarian gesture for Israel to help the Yazidis it is a matter of self preservation, and stopping ISIS before they reach Israel.. They do have a long term plan of reaching Israel but in stages...

ISIS Closing in on Israel from the North and the South - See more at: http://www.thefiscaltimes.com/2014/12/23/ISIS-Closing-Israel-North-and-South#sthash.R5LK5xOr.dpuf

http://www.thefiscaltimes.com/2014/12/23/ISIS-Closing-Israel-North-and-South

There are definite parallels and precedents with the genocide happening in our times to the Yezidis and other ethnic non Islamic populations going back to Mohammad. 

I turn your attention to this link written in May 2008 by Islam Watch  - Islam under scrutiny by Ex-Muslims entitled In Islam's Own Writings: Muhammad's Massacres and Sex-slaves http://www.islam-watch.org/Larry/Muhammad-Massacres-and-Sex-slaves.htm. The author http://www.islam-watch.org/IW/aboutus.htm  concludes

CONCLUSION

Muhammad's unprovoked, murderous attacks of Jewish tribes described above are acts of utter barbarity. His extermination and genocide of the whole community, such as that of Banu Qurayza, makes it worse.

His institution of slavery as a divine order of society was one of the worst curse that could happen to humanity. Allowing sex with slave-girls made it worse. His trading of slaves, such as selling some Banu Qurayza captives in Nejd, was another evil institution.

Muhammad engaged in all these cruel, dehumanizing and horrible acts  with the divine sanctions of Allah. Muhammad and his brainchild Allah were the worst evils to befall humankind, the detriment of which continues to afflict humanity with no end in site.

ISIS  finds ideological affinity with Nazi Germany.  ISIS Caliphate can be labeled as the new up and coming, (G-d Forbid) Holocaust

PROPHET' MOHAMMAD WAS A TERRORIST

The number of incidents of killing and looting by Mohammad runs into more than 80. All those incidents expose the cruelty of Mohammad. If you go through the following 2 horrifying incidents, you can understand how the other such incidents were executed by Mohammad and his gang:

1. In AD 627, Mohammad committed an atrocity against the last remaining major tribe of Jews inMedina :  Banu Qurayza. The larger background of this atrocity against the Jews reveals that Mohammad had already expelled two tribes of Jews: Banu Qaynuqa in AD 624 and Banu Nadir in AD 625. The Banu Qurayza was a Jewish tribe who lived in the northern Arabia during the 7^thcentury, at the oasis of Yathrib (now known asMedina ).

Some 800 to 900 men from the Qurayza were lead on Mohammad's order to the Market of Medina. Trenches were dug and the men were beheaded, and their decapitated corpses buried in the trenches while Mohammad watched in attendance. Women and children were sold into slavery, a number of them being distributed as gifts among Mohammad's companions. The women and children became hysterical as they watched their men folk being butchered. The women, young girls and boys were taken as "sex slaves" to satisfy the unending sexual appetite of Mohammad and his soldiers.

These women were mercilessly raped in front of the children as per the instruction of Mohammad and were bundled as "used goods" and taken as "sex slaves" by each and every soldier of Mohammad. The Qurayza's property and other possessions (including weapons) were also divided up as additional "booty" among the Muslims. Mohammad chose one of the Qurayza women, Rayhana for himself after murdering her father and husband before her eyes. Rayhana was continuously raped by Mohammad for four days.

 "Mohammad beheaded the men and the pubescent boys and enslaved the women and children. In doing this, he wiped an entire tribe off the map".

Practically, the Yezidis probably  are the most  motivated to fight Isis and should get all the humanitarian aid and military aid they require. This is not only the humane way to protect and allow a people who does not provoke cruelty and barbaric behavior to defend itself but also a line of defense for Israel before Isis infiltrates Israels borders either through Gaza or with their border with Syria by the Golan Heights G-d forbid.  One need not use extensive imagination to envision what Isis has in store for Israelites G-d forbid. These pictures should do the trick...

Very disturbing pictures of Yezidi slaves

And if we say surely this will never happen to us in Israel... I pray to G-d you are right!

Living Shmitta and Cherry Picking from Zu Artzeinu

Summer 2015 Cherry Picking Festival   Living Shmitta I realize that most people outside of Israel do not think about Shmittah on a regular basis, but to the Israeli farmer this word has been on his forehead for two years. There was getting the field ready before Shmittah - which was a tremendous amount of work. An extra amount of planting was done before Shmittah and the farmer spent a lot of time making sure his fields would be able to make it "on their own" during the entire year. Many people have commented that this year, in Israel, it rained much more than in previous years - even raining after Pesach and Shavuot! To the Shmittah farmer this was not surprising at all because although watering the fields is permitted (since that merely keeps the trees alive) the farmer tends to water much less in order to follow the Halacha of not improving the trees. Therefore, Hashem Himself sends additional rain during Shmittah to make sure the trees are well cared for! This is not a "bubba-mayseh"... this is 100% true. Ask anyone in Israel and they will tell you how much rain fell this year - all because of Shmittah. During the actual year of Shmittah, not only is planting forbidden but anything that helps a tree grow is forbidden as well. The main task that cannot be done is pruning which means that trees in Israel look like guys who haven't taken a haircut or shaved in a year... no joke! There are weeds growing everywhere and the tree is wild. Usually, when you visit a vineyard, for example, the trees are very neat and form a "V" like shape. During a regular year the farmer is busy trimming, cutting and shaping the tree so that it produces fewer, yet sweeter and larger, fruit. During Shmittah the farmer cannot do these tasks and the trees are big, bushy and quite wild looking. Believe it or not, because the trees have not been pruned, Shmittah vines produce 20 times the amount of grapes! While this sounds great to me and you, it is not such great news for the farmer. First of all, he cannot do any business with these fruits as they carry the sanctity of Shmittah with them and are called "Kedushat Sh'vi'it". Secondly, because there are so many grapes, they tend to be much smaller and not as sweet as the farmer would like. Most of these grapes rot on the tree and are not used at all, although some of them are used to produce very special "Kedusha Sh'vi'it" wine which - according to the Ramban - fulfills a Torah mitzvah with every drink!    Like I wrote before, most of us don't think much about Shmittah but the Israeli farmer is living and breathing this for a very long time. One of those farmers is a man named Menachem Livni, with whom I visited last week. Menachem has a farm near Kiryat Arba called Sde Calev, the Field of Calev (ben Yefuneh). As you know, Calev was one of the good spies - from this past week's parsha! When Calev entered the land of Israel he immediately went to Hebron to pray and the Tanach states very clearly that regarding the area around Hebron; "the fields of the city and its villages were given to Calev ben Yefuneh" (Divrei Ha'Yamim I, chapter 6 verses 40-41). The land that Menachem has his field was purchased by Jews in 1936 but was untouched for many years until he redeemed it and brought it back to life!   In these fields, Menachem grows grapes and 7 different kinds of cherries. From the grapes, he produces 5 unique wines that are sold under the "Livni Winery" name. He took me through his fields and, as stated above, they were indeed quite overgrown and wild. He showed me the tremendous amounts of grapes growing on the vines and I easily noticed how small they were. He then took me into his cherry orchard and explained the different kinds of cherries that grow there. I asked if I could eat some and he said that I don't need his permission since during Shmittah his fields are "hefker" and therefore anyone can take the fruit. This is what I call living the Torah as opposed to just learning the Torah! For many years I learned that Shmittah fields are hefker but I was now living this in real time! I picked the cherries and... another halacha came into play. Normally, all fruits taken in Eretz Yisrael must have Terumot and Ma'asrot separated but during Shmittah this does not apply so - once again - I lived the halacha with a beautiful, first-hand experience! I munched on these delicious cherries and took a bunch home for my kids. I told my children that these cherries cannot be thrown out or discarded in any way since they have the Kedusha of Shmittah on them so we were careful to eat each and every one!! 3 Generations of Livni's Planting Fruit Trees in Israel   My farmer friend, Menachem, is a very unique individual. He began this farm in 1980 and has literally risked his life many times to keep this farm going. His farm is totally surrounded - on all sides - by Arab villages and these Arabs have tried killing him 10 times. Yes, 10 different times. He told me incredible stories of how his life was saved with open miracles in each of those 10 times. In addition to attacking him physically, the Arabs regularly attack and attempt to destroy his fields.   Molitav Cocktails thrown by Arabs They have burned many of his trees and just 2 weeks ago threw several Molotov cocktails (which are gasoline bombs) at his storage and work facility inside the field. This facility has been destroyed - and rebuilt - 3 times in the last 8 months by Menachem and his family. His dedication and self-sacrifice is simply second-to-none and I enjoyed every minute spent in his presence. Menachem Livni is just one of hundreds of Israeli farmers who do much more than observe Shmittah... these heroes live Shmittah! Just as our entire life is centered around Shabbat, their entire life is centered around Shmittah and talking to these amazing people gives me such energy that I cannot even begin to describe. These simple Jews take the words of the Torah and bring them to life with the sweat of their brow. They work the land, guard it and make it produce delicious fruits that allow us the ability to make brachot and Kiddush Friday night!! May Hashem protect them and bless their holy work.   Please CLICK HERE and order your tree TODAY!!!     Cherry Picking Festival in the Gush Last Week  When you come to the land -  Plant FRUIT TREES!

Rabbi Sorotzkin Teshuva - Tikun of ending the Golus - yearn for recognition of G-d's Kingdom, yearn for Davidic Kingdom and yearn for return of Temple Service. Msg following Har Nof Massacre

bs"d

Rabbi Yitzchok Sorotzkin's Stop the Talking campaign going around, to encourage people to stop talking in shul https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6WgMPCtm1Y&safe=active leads us to a Yalkut Shimoni which describes how Am Yisroel must do Teshuva to dispel the prosecutors up in Heaven. 

 Rav Sorotzkin ends his talk describing a scene where all the Tzadikim righteous souls are defending Israel saying how much Chesed, kindness the People of Israel do and how many Mitzvoth they do etc. yet it is not enough... 

He then brings down a Yalkut Shimoni that there are three things that Israel despised 

  

Maasu B'malchut Shamayim They despised the Kingdom of Heaven

not machshiv Beis Dovid       and the Davidic Kingdom

Ubibinyan Beis Hamikdash    and the building of the Beis Hamikdash.

and until there is a Tikkun on these three things, we won't be zocheh to leave this Galus. 

Let us elaborate...

Maasu B'Malchut Shamayim.  Despising the kingdom of heaven...

We remember the Malchut Shamayim on Rosh Hashana in Malchiyut.  We pray that all the Nations of the world will recognize Hashem and His Kingship.  For that we need to be willing to take a leadership position in the world.  Har Habayit is the key for this to happen.  The Nations of the world will stream to Jerusalem and bring gifts to Hashem.

 Isaiah Chapter 2

1. The word that Isaiah, son of Amoz, prophesied concerning Judah and Jerusalem.  א. 2. And it shall be at the end of the days, that the Mountain of the Lord's House shall be firmly established at the top of the mountains, and it shall be raised above the hills, and all the nations shall stream to it.   ב. 3. And many peoples shall go, and they shall say, "Come, let us go up to the Lord's mount, to the House of the God of Jacob, and let Him teach us of His ways, and we will go in His paths," for out of Zion shall the Torah come forth, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.   ג. 4. And he shall judge between the nations and reprove many peoples, and they shall beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks; nation shall not lift the sword against nation, neither shall they learn war anymore.   ד. 5. "O house of Jacob, come and let us go in the light of the Lord."

 Isaiah 11:9  "They will neither harm nor destroy on all My holy mountain, for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord, as water covers the sea"

We need to be Mevakesh these three items as it says in Hoshea 3:5

ה. אַחַר יָשֻׁבוּ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וּבִקְשׁוּ אֶת יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֵיהֶם וְאֵת דָּוִיד מַלְכָּם וּפָחֲדוּ אֶל יְהֹוָה וְאֶל טוּבוֹ בְּאַחֲרִית הַיָּמִים:

5. Afterwards shall the children of Israel return, and seek the Lord their God and David their king, and they shall come trembling to the Lord and to His goodness at the end of days.

Achar  Yashvu Bnei Yisroel, if Bnei Yisroel will return once again, 

Uvikshu es Hashem Elokeychem.  They will ask for Hashem their G-d.  (This is Malchut Shamayim)

Ves Dovid Malchum  They will ask for the Kingdom of David

Upachado as Tuvam, they will want His goodness, this is the Beis Hamikdash.

Hoshea   tells us the importance of understanding the Chashivos (great importance) of 

• Chashivus Malchus Shamayim
• Chashivus Malchus Beis Dovid
• Chashivos Malchus Mikdash

Yerushalyim Ircha BeRachamim Tashuv.

Surely one can not imagine that in Har Nof there was lack of decorum, among those brutally murdered....  

Hoshea may be the key to better understand why this tragedy happened. 

The key is Unity of Am Yisroel so much noted by the parents of those recently sacrificed namely the parents of the 3 boys and the family members of the Har Nof massacre and the Father of the Sassoon family. 

Let me suggest the following:

The Secular yearn for a Malchus Shamayim.  A Jewish Kingdom where Israel is involved in Tikkun Olam and being a light onto the Nations.

The Chareidim yearn be be Holy and separate.

When there is appreciation between the Secular and Chareidi Jews of the value of each others yearning, to be a Kingdom of Priests, a Holy Nation serving the Nations of the World then we will be deserving of dissipating our enemies without war and without human sacrifice. 

Let us yearn for the return o the Davidic Kingdom and the return of the Temple and the Holy Sacrifices where Israel will be known far and wide as a Mamlechet Kohanim veGoy Kadosh a Kingdom of Priests and a Holy Nation..
