Abbas Calls Temple Mount ‘Exclusive Property of Muslims’ in Speech to UN General Assembly | The Jewish Press - JewishPress.com | Mike Wagenheim | 24 Elul 5784 – Thursday, September 26, 2024 | JewishPress.com

The Three are Rabbi Yehuda Glick, famous temple mount activist, and former Israel Mk, and then Robert Weinger, the world's greatest shofar blower and seller of Shofars, and myself after we had gone to the 12 gates of the Temple Mount in 2020 to blow the shofar to ask G-d to heal the world from the Pandemic. It was a highlight to my experience in living in Israel and I put it on my blog each day to remember.

The articles that I include each day are those that I find interesting, so I feel you will find them interesting as well. I don't always agree with all the points of each article but found them interesting or important to share with you, my readers, and friends. It is cathartic for me to share my thoughts and frustrations with you about life in general and in Israel. As a Rabbi, I try to teach and share the Torah of the G-d of Israel as a modern Orthodox Rabbi. I never intend to offend anyone but sometimes people are offended and I apologize in advance for any mistakes. The most important psychological principle I have learned is that once someone's mind is made up, they don't want to be bothered with the facts, so, like Rabbi Akiva, I drip water (Torah is compared to water) on their made-up minds and hope that some of what I have share sinks in. Love Rabbi Yehuda Lave.

The Portion of Nitzavim An Eternal Covenant

The portion of Nitzavim begins with the covenant involving the entire people of Israel, from the elite to the common man.

Not only did this covenant include all who were present at the time but it included all who were to be born in future generations.

Severe consequences await the people if the covenant is broken; the penalty is exile without the possibility of returning to the Land of Israel.

And in fact the ten tribes which were exiled in the time of Sancherev to a place far, far away- Afriki (Tractate Sanhedrin 94a).

And in the words of the Torah: " And the Lord uprooted them from upon their land, with fury, anger and great wrath, and He cast them to another land, as it is this day." (Deuteronomy 29l;27)

The text is hard. "Vayashlichem"- and he cast them, which refers to a long exile in a far-away land. This word is written without the letter "yud" following the letter "lamed". This alludes to the exile of the Ten Tribes (the numerical value of "yud" is ten.) And the form of the letter "lamed" in the accompanying picture found in a Torah which I rescued from Holland alludes to the fact that the tribes were exiled to a far-away place. (Remazei Rabbenu Yoel)
