Encouragement to pursue the Ultimate

Notwithstanding all this positive (often disturbing) indicators of Reality about the fast evolving formation of the required Reawakening towards the Final Redemption , we sure need encouragement in these days when the World as we know it and have experienced it, seems to be cracking up all around us – like an earthquake, reshaping a continent.
We find such encouragement in a Scripture from this week’s Parashat Balaq:
“He (HaShem) does not look at evil in Jacob, and sees no perversity in Israel: G d, their G d, is with them.” (Num. 23:21)
Wow! Can thus be true?

Standing at the Gates of the Promised Land in the Second Exodus at the culmination of the Ages

OvadYah Avrahami 4.7. Balak, Blog 2

This Blog is compiled from Parashat and Haftorat Balak:

Parahah from TORAH: NUMBERS 22:2-25
Haftorah from PROPHETS: MICAH 5:6-6:8

In Jewish synagogue services the Torah is read in 52 weekly Parashot sections consecutively every year. The insight of the Jewish Sages in having paired up each Parashah with a section from the Prophetic books of the Tanach is astounding. This becomes evident from the fact that this pairing up does not change annually and it is eerie how these readings are ever so often echoed by leading international news events of that same week to confirm the accuracy of Bible prophecy. In general, These Haftorahs encapsulate and expound on the theme of the Parshah for the week.

Unfortunately, while commentaries on the Parashot abound weekly (on Internet these days), reviews of the Haftorot do not receive the same prominence generally. Haftorat Balak this week (from the book of the Prophet Micah), has a specially important concluding Message for the Time that we are living in.

The Awakening is taking place!

We have observed many signs this week that the Restoration of Israel End Time Process is taking shape. Normally, such signs are not always obvious. In fact, clear signs of success are mostly dangerous, for the many negative side effects it carries. Reminds us of the Rabbi who said: “I get very worried when my entire congregation agrees with me and there is no fierce rejection of my view points!”

At the risk of seeming self priding, we will share some of these observations this week rather than a blog and Parashat commentary. We will share video and other snippets of such inspiring signs that came our way, unasked for. To us, this showed a monumental move forward in our endeavours to get Judah to recognize and accept the reality of a “reawakening Ephraim” out there.

Turning Stumbling Stones into Stepping Stones

OvadYah Avrahami Blog 1

We are now at the Redemptive stage of the 2nd Exodus, having left the exile in spiritual Egypt, and now being “in the Wilderness Trek” towards the Promised Land where HaShem will raise and perfect His Tabernacle (Temple) in which He will dwell amongst His People to rule over His Universal Kingdom through “His Servant” whom He is preparing.

Resistance amongst the Nation featured prominently in the 1st Exodus. It now serves as a paradigm for our current experience on this Final Lap. We can mirror our current experience in this and learn from the mistakes made in the 1st Exodus.

This week’s Parashat Korach highlights such a major flaw in the Nations reactions. It deals with the rebellion of Korach against Moshe’s leadership. This serves as yet another mirror for us to evaluate and reconsider our own reactions in this regard on our current Final Trek to the ultimate Achievement.

Decide and accept the Final Invitation to the Ultimate Promise

This week we find ourselves in the time of the “12 Spies” – checking the Final Entry. And the report, coming from “the Two” sides (10 and 2 sectors): 2 spies positive and 10 spies negative, causing the entire nation in transition to cry through the night.
Significantly, the 2 ‘approving spies’ were:
Yoshuah – from the Tribe of Ephraim, and
Caleb – from the Tribe of Judah.

This already sets a confirmation of the metaphorical hint at the 2-House Reconciliatory Redemption that we are now approaching in Time. If this allegory is correct, what then is the Message that this week’s Parashah conveys to us?

Time for introspection – How long will we shun HaShem’s Purpose?

I’ll venture to share with you and say it with my own song this week inspired by this week’s Parashat commentary by Rabbi Dr Jonathan sacks

Awesome Guidelines highlighted by the controversies surrounding Shavuot

OvadYah Avrahami Blog, Commentaries 0

Like with all Biblical proclamations, there rages a huge controversy between various religions which do commemorate this Biblical Sacred Day of Shavuot. In an enlightening commentary Rabbi Breitowitz expounds on different opinions which exist even within Judaism and amongst the Sages of Jewish Torah Wisdom regarding this day from their writings and deliberations regarding the Guidelines that are thereby set for furthering the Creator’s Plan for Humanity.

The Greatest Spiritual Force in the Universe

OvadYah Avrahami Blog 0

Yearning for Return to the Zion was the Secret Life Force which kept Jews going throughout centuries of exile from the Land. Unbeknown to most people today is another remnant of Ancient Israel, a sector (in fact, 10/12ths of the entire Hebrew Israelite Nation) which is still ‘lost’ to this day, in exile for 2730 years now beyond identification, amongst the nations of the World. Yet, the same Divine Promises of Return embalmed in Torah and the Prophetic Writings of the Holy Scriptures, apply to this ‘Lost’ sector of the Nation. Probably the most confirmative factor of the Divine eligibility of this masse of ancient Israelites which could number one billion souls at this time, is the very fact highlighted by this week’s Torah portion (at this memorable ‘Jerusalem Day’ fulfillment of Jewish yearning) of the yearning for Return also which is now responsible for the building of a silently gathering Tsunami of Returnees to their Divine Israelite Heritage.

Torah unto all Nations – A Response to the Message of Isaiah 56

Rabbi Avraham Feld Blog, Commentaries, Return and Ingathering of the Lost Ten Tribes of Israel 1

Not only Isaiah 56 but all of the Torah cries out to us to reach out to our fellow Jews, Hebrews (incl. those lost souls of Judah and the House of 10-Israel) and all the nations.

We need to be an educative ‘Light to the Nations’.

Here is but a small sampling of the exhaustive sources that are available in the vast library of Jewish Writings.

Our Giants of mind and soul, the Jewish Sages, and our current remnant covenantal faith action community have much to say on the above.

The Final Ultimate Divine Retribution Option

If ever we thought of receiving confirmation for our projections in our Blogs in this series since the start of Corona and its World stopping pandemic then this week’s Parashah leaves us with no doubts. While it spells out a dreadful bleak situation, it also holds the most sublime upliftment for our spirit of Hope, Triumph and Eternal Reward.
