Israel's leading known Kabbalistic Elder, Rabbi Yitzchak Kaduri called upon worldwide Jewry Tuesday night to return to Israel due to the natural disasters which threaten to strike the world.

In a class between between the Mincha (afternoon) and Maariv (evening) prayers at his Jerusalem yeshiva seminary, Rabbi Kaduri issued the following call:This declaration I find fitting to issue for all of the Jews of the world to hear. It is incumbent upon them to return to the Land of Israel due to terrible natural disasters which threaten the world.
Rabbi Kaduri also stated that the upcoming year would be a year of "secret and revelation" in the world. The Jewish year 5766 begins in less than three weeks, with the holiday of Rosh Hashana. The Rabbi explained that the numerical Hebrew abbreviation for 5766, tav, shin, samech, vav gives insight into the nature of the upcoming year. "This will be a year of secret (or sod, from the letter samech) and revelation (or v'giliu from the letter vav. Arutz Sheva Israel National Radio show host Yehoshua Meiri first publicized the declaration on his Hebrew radio show late Tuesday night. Meiri, who attended the class, typed out the words of Rabbi Kaduri's declaration and presented them back to the Rabbi who signed on the document. Associates of Rabbi Kaduri were dispatched to communicate the Kabbalistic Elder's call to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon before the latter's departure to the United States later in the same night. Meiri says he will publicize the signed declaration after Prime Minister Sharon delivers a speech in the U.S., in which he is expected to call upon the Jews of the Diaspora to make Aliyah (immigrate) to Israel.
Earlier this Jewish year, Rabbi Kaduri predicted great tragedies in the world. Just two weeks before the devastating tsunami in southeast Asia, Rabbi Kaduri was quoted in the Yediot Acharonot newspaper as saying:
Rabbi Kaduri said in the week prior to the interview, "What can save the world from calamities is real repentance by Jews, who must increase acts of kindness towards one another... The cry of the many poor in Israel and the expulsion of Jews from their homes shakes the world... It's not for naught that this place was hit, where many of our compatriots went to look for this-worldly lusts." The month of Elul, which immediately preceeds the Jewish New Year is traditionally a month of teshuva, or repentence by the Jewish people, in anticipation of the judgments that are incurred on the Jewish High Holidays of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur. Rabbi Kaduri has told his students that the current government will be the last one of the "old era." He is on record as saying that Sharon will be the last prime minister in Israel, and that the new government will already have leadership of the Messianic era. |
this means Christ is coming back in all his glory and wrath.
"Actually, the Maronite and Assyrian Christians in Lebanon claim to be Phoenecians"
And I know you do not believe them ;)
The Kingdom was initially divided for a time under David. Avner was instrumental in bringing resolution to the matter. True the division was the house of Saul as opposed to the house of David. So, there was a division.
In any case, please note I said from the "time of David". I intended that era.
The usage of the term "Jew" for all Israel first occurs in the Text during Ahaz's (Hezekiah's father) reign, which was imediately before Hezekiah's reign. If it was in usage at that time, then it is only logical to conclude it predated that time in some effect.
Now, of course, we must date the penning of 2 Kings if we wish for external critical evidence.. but internally, the Text has it just before the time of Hezekiah, and just before the carrying away of Israel to Assyria.
I mostly agree with your point 2. Although I would suggest that Samaritans intermarried with gentiles whereas the "Jews" did not.
In the absence of reasonable proof of Jewish maternity, conversion to Judaism is necessary, even for descendants of 'lost' tribes.
Good post. I had a great aunt who said the Irish(us)were one of the 12 lost tribes of Israel. I've come to see where devout Roman Catholicism and Judaism have close ties, in many instances.
Bottom line: The Muslim extremists(just adding that to be pc)want us all dead. Catholic, Jew, Southern Baptist-Missouri Synod, Mormon.....we're dead.
Good post.
Incidentally, dispensationalism found it's place (hints of anyway) in very early Christianity (33ce-250ce) and then in contemporary Christianity (roughly around 1800ce-present).
The worst Christian persecution against Jewry is found in the intervening millenia.
May be coincidental, but it would seem as though eras where dispensationalism thrived, so did well treatment of the Jews.
Jesus did say the law doesn't change, but some of those laws were made obsolete by His appearance, in other words, the law was fulfilled
Jesus came and 'fulfilled' the laws applying to menstruant women? Puh-leez!!
Thank you for clearing that up. I was wondering.
I know that what this man said, is true.

German Jewish rabbis say that Sephardic rabbis are well-known for proclaiming that a Messiah is about to arrive, so don't believe them. There are many examples of this in Jewish history.
However, given what Rabbi Kaduri has stated more than once, I'd reckon that the higher-up rabbis in Israel have someone already picked out to be their "Messiah."
Got that a little wrong.
You referenced Zechiah 12:10
Well, it's an ordinance. Dealing particularly with being unclean.
Prophesied here: Zechariah 13:1
In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.
Explained here:
Ephesians 2
13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.
14 For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us;
15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
I suppose it is no more of a stretch to "fulfill" a feminine condition than to make a proscription against it in the first place :^)
Where's the headache guy? Thread hijacked agin!
mark for later reading
To all who have ears..
Yup! I agree with you there, Sheik!
It is coming soon.
LoL..
Ok, Ok.. didn't mean to, it just kinda drifted that way.
I'll bug out.
Jesus simply meant that Kosher (clean hands) don't make one holy, but good heart, good faith and holiness with God helps one achieve Kosher.
It is too hard to repent. Someone who loves you must do that for you, must apply the law for you. Jesus did that.
