ועל זה השיר

Return, faithless Israel,
declares the LORD.
I will not look on you in anger,
for I am merciful,
declares the LORD;
I will not be angry forever.
Only acknowledge your guilt,
that you rebelled against the LORD your God
and scattered your favors among foreigners under every green tree,
and that you have not obeyed my voice,
declares the LORD.
Return, O faithless children,
declares the LORD;
for I am your master;
I will take you, one from a city and two from a family,
and I will bring you to Zion.

Yeremyahu 3:12-14

Great Secret of Torah

Noach was the first human being who planted a vineyard {Bereshit 9:20}: וַיָּחֶל נֹחַ, אִישׁ הָאֲדָמָה; וַיִּטַּע, כָּרֶם. וַיֵּשְׁתְּ מִן-הַיַּיִן, וַיִּשְׁכָּר Noach, the tiller of the soil, was the first to plant a vineyard. He drank from the wine and became drunk. Noach was extremely happy, and he got drunk. What was the Simcha, the happiness, about? Noach found out that the soil, the Adamah, was not cursed. That what was previously thought of as a curse, the spoiling of the grape juice, was in fact a good thing. With a little help, it created wine. Noach was very happy because he was the one to find out the process. He had discovered a secret of Nature. Noach also discovered the truth of the saying in Sanhedrin 38a, נִכְנַס יַיִן יָצָא סוֹד as he fell asleep, drunken. Noach went to the world of Sod, and exclaimed as he woke up: "The Adamah is not cursed, but Canaan is." He had understood a secret of Torah. Of course, through this curse, the nation of Yisrael woul...

Why Moshiach Does Not Come

We have to do Teshuva. The Cherem of Ben Meir was wrong. The Cherem of Spinoza was wrong. The Cherem of Ramchal was wrong. There are many more. We have made mistakes. We have caused agony, untold agony. We, Israel as a nation, are responsible, because the awful sins against members of our nation and against the Truth that were perpetrated on our behalf. Maybe, if we change our ways, the Truth will forgive us. We have to, formally and loudly, revoke all these bans. And we have to do more. We have to make sure that it will happen no more that people feel banned from society, because today we ban people in many ways. Our government organizations have grown corrupt. They are only interested in the perpetuation of their power over the people. Gone is the idealism that once was, and it shows, on the roads, with the horrendous misbehavior in traffic. Where is the government organization that is in charge? The deeds of the fathers are sign for the sons. Moshe said, in Shemot 2:14: "The...

Historical Compromise

P and D came to a compromise, to construct one history for one nation. The important thing for the history to convey is the law code of D and the law code of P, in which this law code is embedded. They constructed one nation with one law, one Torah. To emphasize that everybody is right regarding history, P devised Shemot 46:8-27, showing that the seventy souls were no different than Yaakov and his family, and D accepted the fathers Abraham, Yitzchak, and Yaakov. The lesson of the compromise should be clear. If everybody is equally right about the historical truth, everybody, among the compromisers, is wrong about the historical truth. But the compromise did create historical truth, by the fact that it occurred a long time ago. Before the Islam, before Christianity, and before rabbinic Judaism. All three are the result, for better and for worse, of this historical compromise. That is the truth. The compromise is also a compromise between the sons of Aharon and the Levites, and from ...
