PR okay good morning everyone shim uh
this week uh is the week that many are
uh considering the role that is plays in
the destiny of the Jewish people in our
time in the post Holocaust era we know
that shortly after the Holocaust AR is
was established as a Sovereign Nation in
1948 and their various viewpoints among
g is how this is
viewed um and of course everyone should
follow the opinion of their respective
MRA but for your consideration it's
worthwhile to be aware of the approach
of rakov ketki because many people so to
speak uh have never formulated a uh a
Torah ideology regarding the hakamas of
the of this nation and rakov ketki in
the context of speaking about the three
days that M asked par that the Jews
should spend in the midbar at first
glance it seems like it was a um a scam
what do you mean 3 days in the midbar
they were going out for
good say Let My People Go what did he
mean let's spend three days in the
midbar soob keski develops a beautiful
idea and rishit writes similarly
regarding a different phenomenon that
I'm going to share with you that the
three days in the
midbar was in order clao was uh
plummeting they were falling rapidly
um and they needed to be redeemed the
only thing the only thing is it was not
time for them to be redeemed yet so
wanted them to go out to the midbar not
to be redeemed but to strengthen
themselves in amuna to elevate
themselves and this would give them the
kak to be able to continue through the
Galas however when par did not allow
them there was no alternative other than
to redeem the Jewish people so from here
we see there's a concept in Jewish
history that sometimes
could be M to CL is it's not necessarily
Redemption but it's a way of
strengthening them in order to fortify
them um and prepare them ultimately in
to strengthen them in the Galos so that
they can get through the Galos and be
around at the Finish Line when the Gul
happens ROV
and say this is also how we understand
the period of the building of the second
M mikdash the second m mikdash paled in
comparison to the first
there was no pres at the second there
was no there was no fire there was no
there was
no those who saw the first bdash and saw
the second bdes they cried they they
they remembered the glory of the first B
mikdash and this was what but a a empty
shell of what the first B mikdash was
like so what was the function of the
second
mdash writes keski said says the purpose
was it was a
pida it was merely a visitation rather
than a full-fledged G and the purpose
was after 70 years in Galas BBA the Jews
had sunk so terribly they didn't even
know what a Suka was anymore they had
intermarried and they would not last the
Galas they were intermingling with the
nations of the world and therefore in
order to fortify us re gave us the
second B mikdash during that era all the
D were established all the G of and Sh
and so forth and that gave us the Kay
there was a great proliferation of T and
that's how we're still hanging around
today 2,000 years later if not for the
bayen we never the Jewish people would
not have been able to
continue so in a footnote in theak he
brings that many many times rakov would
use this analogy to explain the
establishment of the state of Israel in
1948 where rakov would say that the
Jewish people were reeling in the post
holocost era we lost 6 million in Europe
there was terrible devastation in Russia
the Judaism was being stripped from from
uh literally millions of Jews so in
order to M CL and Jewish identity see
this is something that um many don't
fully understand
that for Ben
B of course the main Jewish identity is
learning Tyra like
said but unfortunately 90% of CLA is
doesn't not only doesn't learn Tyra
doesn't even know what Tyra is and the
majority of the Jewish people especially
after the Holocaust were in danger of
completely disappearing and the fact
that there is a
state
gave Mo most of the Jewish people some
Jewish identity so was this a Redemption
yov ketki says it should be
viewed exactly parallel to the three
days in the midbar and the second B
mikdash it was not a g it was a p and it
was a way of strengthening the Jewish
people strengthening Jewish identity so
that we'll be able to still hang in
there and be around so more Jews would
be around in the finish line so again
this is a important perspective that
rakab ketki said not one time not a few
times but uh numerous times and
something to consider wish everybody a
wonderful
day recording sto go doctor what would
you like to
say so really what you just saying okay
um how do we ensure that there
be or that Direct
