Shalom [subscriber:firstname | default:dear friend],

The inauguration of the Democratic Party rule over the USA on 20 January, 2021 coincides with Parashat (Bible Reading) Boh which holds a traumatic Message for these Times. This inauguration finalized amongst very wide ranking speculation beforehand of a probable overturn of what seemed a tampered Vote Count as alleged by Pres. Trump and his legal team. The courts of the USA refused almost blankly to investigate the corroborated evidence that this legal team has been gathering supported by wide-ranged testifying witness.
|
Expectations circulated widely in conspiracy theories leading up to the 20 Jan. inauguration. It predicted a military take over and a subsequent military hearing of alleged treason committed on various levels by the incoming rulers. But, it never transpired. A peaceful transition to elected Pres. Biden resulted.
|
|
So, where does that bring us? The purpose of this discussion is certainly not to present further speculative reviews. However, we will comment here in line with our strategy in these commentaries to search for and accentuate the Torah Messages contained in every week’s Parashat with regard to the Final Redemption (viz. the united reconciliation of Judah and Ephraim – i.e. re-awakening 10 Lost Tribes).
|
To open this discussion, we feature a concise review by a guest writer, of the latest
|
development on the World stage and its probable affect on our future. We will then delve
|
into our Parashat Boh commentary which was featured a year or more ago on this Website.
|
Amazingly, it now sheds so much more Light and direction on the Way forward.

Dissenting voices have become enemies of the State, “The United States”
|
“Through the power and by the decree of the big tech industry, backed and supported by the elected US government in waiting – the rights and freedoms of the people of the United States have been usurped. Due process and the rule of law will no longer exist, having been replaced by a subjective form of trial by the media. MSNBC, CNN, FOX, and others. With Facebook, Twitter, Google, YouTube and scores of other internet platforms sitting as the judges, determining what is admissible in the kangaroo court of popular opinion. Any non-compliance that threatens the objective to condemn the accused will be silenced. The Congress of the United States, with the passive approval of the US Senate and Judiciary have abrogated their authority and power to ensure that our laws and the rights of the accused are not recognized and any attempt to readdress those rights are summarily dismissed. When the few have attempted to take a stand against the tyranny, they have been ruthlessly attacked and maligned by the media, their peers, and other government officials, effectively crushing any dissent. Our former presidents and other high-level officials are now actively siding and complicit with the oppression of our rights and those who would uphold them.
|
Seventy-four Million people voted for a sitting president Trup. Questions concerning due process and legal challenges to the election procedures and the validity of their votes were summarily dismissed by the media and the government. Legitimate concerns of lawmakers and the people of the United States were deemed frivolous and unworthy of consideration. Those who challenged or questioned the status quo have been smeared and had their voices silenced, including the sitting president of the United States – ALL without due process of law.
|
This silencing goes far beyond the presidential election – it has encompassed every aspect of the lives of individual Americans. The freedom to peaceably assemble, freedom of religion and conscience, freedom of speech and due process have all become non grata.
|
The ruling President of the United States and millions of other law-abiding citizens have had their natural rights, as defined in the Declaration of Independence, Constitution of the United States, and the US Bill of Rights, summarily dismissed in a gradual process, over many years, of usurping the Constitutional rights of the US Government and Corporate America.
|
The Freedom of Speech and the Press have been abrogated and our freedom of expression is thus nullified – private and public corporations have conspired together to silence or malign any dissenting voices that they deem are inappropriate or do not comply with their world view. They have become an arbitral tribunal of all truth, determining what is fit for print or publication on the internet and television networks, censoring or flagging any thoughts that are inconsistent with its policies.
|
The usurpers of our constitutional rights include, but are not limited to corporations such as Twitter, Google, Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Amazon and many others who have conspired to silence the ability of the American Citizenry to have a voice in our country.
|
Without due process, they have also consorted together to crush businesses and non-conforming news outlets by limiting access to funds, sales platforms, search engines and internet access for those they deem a threat to their pogroms.”

What to expect after the inauguration in the USA
|
People are losing sight of the inherent and awesome threat to our future. We are facing a Replay here of the exact same build up that was applied by Hitler in the 30’s, which led up to the Holocaust and the vicious mass extermination of millions of Jews and Gypsies who were regarded as inferior human beings by the autocratic new German Regime. These people were first horded into Ghettos and then into Death concentration camps. (One cannot help to think of the purported fenced camps built by Obama’s regime in deserted areas in the USA. The current newly inaugurated President of the USA was the vice president of Obama. This is not fear mongering – we are talking about historic facts of what happened in Germany under similar suppression and Media controlled brain washing. We have just witnessed the start of such suppression revealing itself in the USA).

Turn now to our Parashat Boh commentary here below. Amazingly, this Rabbinic commentary and our KHT Commentary thereto, have been written a year ago (perhaps more …). Yet, it speaks loud and clearly to us as a detailed prescription of where we are heading on the Prophetic Time Line and what our strategies should be.

Selected commentaries featuring the Reconciliation and Restoration Message of the Scriptures.
The commentary following here below is a reprint of our article published one year ago - bringing even more clarity now.
NOTE: Kol HaTor, in its commentaries on the weekly Parashot, endeavours to search for and accentuate the Torah Messages contained in the Parashot as applicable to the main Theme of Tanach of the Return of the House of Israel, i.e. the Lost Ten Tribes of Northern Israel and their Reconciliation with Judah to form the reunited 12-Tribed Kingdom of Israel.
|
|
|
Our last few Parashot have repeatedly pointed to “A Time of Trouble” approaching the People of HaShem, like the 10 Plagues and the death of the first-born of Egypt before the Exodus, as we are drawing closer to the Time of the Ultimate Redemption, i.e. the Restoration of the Reconciled 12 Tribed Kingdom of HaShem.
|
Jeremiah 16 describes this as follows:
|
14. “The days are coming,” declares HaShem, “when it will no longer be said, ‘As surely as HaShem lives, Who brought the Israelites up out of Egypt,’ 15. but it will be said, ‘As surely as HaShem lives, who brought the Israelites [12 Tribes] up out of the land of the north and out of all the countries where he had banished them.’ For I will restore them to the land I gave their ancestors.”
|
This is referred to as the ‘Second Exodus‘ and does not only refer to the return of Jews to the Land of Israel after World War 2, but to the Return also of millions of re-identified Ten Tribers who have lost all identity among the nations where they were exiled for 2800 years. The immensity of such a vast re-identification and Return will totally overshadow the original miracle filled Exodus from Egypt, according to Jeremiah.
|
The Rabbis are united on the principle that HaShem uses periods of travail upon His People to purify and strengthen them spiritually. Their struggles with hardship, adversity and misfortune serve to mold them into the righteous likeness which they require to be part of His Kingdom and to be in His Service.
|
This Divine method is not just used in the final refining process of His elect, but, throughout all humanity, even as initial Calls for their heart and minds. The Ten Plagues of our last two Parashot are perfect example of this, and it holds many strategic guidelines for the sincere observer. HaShem constantly calls on those who know Him not, who rebel against Him, but, in response, like Pharaoh, they challenge Him, for they do not wish to acknowledge Him. First G-d appeals to their emotions, but, like against Pharaoh, after the first Plagues, G-d changes His approach and even hardens his heart, while appealing to his intellect.
|
We, the people of Judah and 10-Israel today, when applying the allegory of ‘Pharaoh’ to ourselves, are also hard of heart against His Calls for higher devotion and commitment. This becomes especially evident with regard to the approaching Final Redemption (which also entails working for Peace in His House which is so disastrously split in two). We do not respond to His Calls for change and rethinking. We hesitate, turn our ears and hearts away, procrastinate, promise falsely and continue in our ways of neglecting the Cause for Peace in Zion..
|
Then, like with Pharaoh, HaShem “puts on the screws” when He Calls for final refining. This time He is using a different Calling. He is appealing to our intellectual resources rather than our emotional. The Troubles may increase, physical persecution may become a reality (like through wars or anti-Semitic onslaughts even on our lives). It is all about a higher Calling for Final Refining.
|
This insight into the spiritual implications of the Ten Plagues is given in a Commentary on Parashat Boh by Chasidic Rabbi Biggs. We publish an extract of it here:
|
Parashat Bo – Kabbalistic Dimensions of the Plagues
DISCLAIMER – The authors whom we quote from for this Commentary are not associated with KOL HA’TOR and need not agree with our views expressed herein or in our other publications. While we publish their views for its relative value to the interpretation of the Parashah, KOL HATOR does not necessarily agree with the views expressed by these authors.
|
The Exodus from Egypt was a precursor for the coming of Moshiach. As we study and relive the Exodus, our yearning for Moshiach is heightened.
|
The ten plagues parallel the ten Sefirot, the ten Divine emanations by which Hashem creates the world. The Sefirot are divided into two types, three intellectual and seven emotional. Evil also has ten Sefirot of impurity through which it exists. The ten plagues broke the ten negative forces of Egypt and prepared for the revelation of the Ten Commandments. Last week we read of the first seven plagues, which parallel the emotions. This week we read the final three, which parallel the intellect. The three faculties of the intellect are Chochmah, Binah, and Da’at [Wisdom, Understanding and Knowledge] (the abbreviations of the three together form ChaBaD). The plagues were in an ascending order.
|
The first plague [of the last three] in this week’s portion is locusts, which paralleled Da’at. Da’at, translated as ‘knowledge,’ is the faculty by which we connect the intellect and the emotions. It is possible to understand something well on an intellectual level with no effect on our emotional traits or actions. We often come to the full intellectual resolve that we should adopt good practices or reject bad habits but it doesn’t happen. Think for a moment how many of us smoke or drive without seatbelts, knowing full well the dangers involved. This is because the resolve remains in the intellect, and has not reached Da’at. Da’at is attained through repeatedly meditating upon and applying the conclusions of our thoughts until they become second nature. The Talmud states that a child only develops Da’at when he eats grain. The locusts, which destroyed the grain, were the antithesis of Da’at. In our service of Hashem, Da’at is constantly attuning our emotions by meditating on the greatness of Hashem and how each Mitzvah creates a bind with His infinite light until this becomes our ingrained perception.
|
Binah means ‘understanding’. When an idea first falls into our head, we don’t fully grasp it. When we carefully consider the idea, analyzing how it answers numerous questions and sheds light in other areas, this is the power of Binah. When we fully understand something, it illuminates our awareness. Darkness and confusion are the opposite of Binah. Thus, the ninth plague is darkness. In our service of Hashem Binah means to study each concept we learn in Torah until it illuminates our minds and hearts.
|
Chochmah (wisdom) is the first Sefirah. In intellect, it represents the first awakening of a new idea. As a trait, it represents the nullification to that which is higher. The Hebrew word Chochmah is a composite of the two words Koach and Mah, which means the power of nullification. Because of its humility, Chochmah is able to be the channel of all life. The first born of Egypt were the antithesis of Chochmah and of the life that Chochmah represents. Therefore the plague connected to Chochmah is the smiting of the first-born. This is represented by dedicating our first thought in any issue towards service of Hashem. When we rise, our first words are “Modeh Ani”

Kol HaTor Commentary
Conclusion and application to Judah and 10-Israel
As we approach the reality of the Redemption, there are things that have to change and need to be achieved:
|
-
The restoration and recognition of the Lost House of Israel, consisting of Ten Tribes in exile among the nations, beyond realization or recognition.
|
-
Reconciliation has to be achieved between these re-identifying and returning Lost Ten Tribers and the House of Judah before the Peace can be established which will trigger the Return of the Shechinah (visible Divine Presence) of HaShem to Zion (the Land of Israel).
|
-
Judah (the Jews) have to “recognize Yosef” (who are busy re-awakening to their Hebraic Roots and approaching Judah for re-identifying and Return). To Jews today, it must be much like ancient Israel having to accept a foreigner to them, an Egyptian style Moses, or an Egyptian seeming Ruler, Yosef, in his ‘Egyptian Cloak’ of many colours.
|
-
Ephraim (Ten Tribes) who are in process of awakening and re-identification across the entire world, has to turn away from their inherited pride and rebellion against Judah (as their fathers did for which they were exiled into oblivion). As the returnee Prodigal Son, they have to respect and acknowledge their ‘Brother’ Judah who has faithfully been keeping ‘The House of their Father’ during their exile ‘to the pig sties of paganism.’ They should shake off their arrogance of pride in rediscovery of Torah principles and rather than try to ‘save’ Judah, humble themselves and acknowledge the Divine Mandate of Judah as the ‘Mechoqeck’ of HaShem (‘Lawgiver of G-d,’ Ps. 60:7, 108:8).
|
Like HaShem did with Pharaoh, He will “put on the screws” in this final refining. He will be appealing to our intellectual rather than our emotional spirituality. The world is facing catastrophic culmination for its evil empire Babylon which it has been building throughout nearly 6000 years. The Sabbath Millennia is at the door.
|
Chochmah, Binah, and Da’at (Wisdom, Understanding and Knowledge). Both Houses urgently need more Knowledge about each other and about the controversial way that Redemption will have to come. We need understanding of each other. This will result in Wisdom about HaShem’s Redemption Plan, to realize our individual personal responsibilities, to accept each other and thus to establish Peace in Zion. Now we may grasp why HaShem refers to His ‘Servant,’ whom He is preparing to be a Light unto the Nations, as being “blind and deaf”. With all the wonderful knowledge and insight that is available today, we still do not recognize, acknowledge and accept each other as the Final Step to bringing the Final Redemption about.
|
Our Haftarah concludes with a wonderful confirmation of all this:
|
Haftarah
“Do not be afraid, Jacob [12 Tribes of Israel] My servant; do not be dismayed, Israel [10 Tribes, or, in this context also all 12]. I will surely save you out of a distant place, your descendants from the land of their exile. Jacob will again have peace and security, and no one will make him afraid. 28. Do not be afraid, Jacob my servant, for I am with you,” declares HaShem. “Though I completely destroy all the nations among which I scatter you, I will not completely destroy you. I will discipline you but only in due measure; I will not let you go entirely unpunished.”
|
Suggested Future Strategy
Considering the above Scriptural Guidance in conjunction with the latest developments in the USA which pose a grim future for independent thinkers, free speech and religious convictions and which will affect the entire World, we suggest the following for consideration and application:
|
-
If Pres. Trump received such condemnation, even as ruling President, what chance do the general populace have in the future to express opinions? Those therefore who back God’s Purpose need to drastically consider bridging the valleys of division amongst all Bible believers who seek the Almighty and HIS Ways –realizing that on the top of the ladder we all follow the Creator, God of Israel, albeit with different interpretations of His Being (which differs from person to person anyway in ANY of the Bible related religions itself). We should become ONE Family, all part of His Creation, following His Will - NOT our ways, our religious cultures and its teachers – but His Culture and His Will for His People. From this week’s Haftarah: Jer. 46: 27, “But fear not thou, O Jacob My servant (all 12 Tribes), neither be dismayed, O Israel; for, lo, I will save thee from afar, and thy seed from the land of their captivity; and Jacob shall again be quiet and at ease, and none shall make him afraid. 28 Fear not thou, O Jacob My servant, saith HaShem, for I am with thee; for I will make a full end of all the nations whither I have driven thee, but I will not make a full end of thee; and I will correct thee in measure, but will not utterly destroy thee.”
|
-
Twelve Tribes came out of Egypt (not just Judah) and a great masse of Egyptians joined them. This reflects ALL of God’s Created beings who wish to serve Him according to His Will – ONE Nation, ONE Body, ONE God. They had NO CHANCE of fixing Pharao’s strategies of slavery and suppression. Even God had a hard time convincing Pharao. And He will deal with them in the End. Our part is to join arms and EXIT, RETURN – JOIN forces in following HaShem as ONE People.
|
-
We need to avoid being influenced by conspiratorial theories, motions and mind bending, from BOTH sides, as this lead up to the USA Inauguration has proven. This Reset in the World is coming on international level. We similarly need to re-group. We need to concentrate on, proclaim and follow the only and most powerful Tool at our disposal – that is, the REALITY that we have at our disposal – and that is the existence of the Creator and guidance from His Word which we all have at our disposal.We need to correctly interpret this Word though, anew, on its sound foundations, while joining arms, souls and our forces. THIS is what the Final Redemption is all about and which can NOT transpire while we remain divided.
|
-
THINK! And YIELD unconditionally
|
|
|
|
|
Wishing you HaShem’s richest Blessings!
