Benjamin Netanyahu at Western Wall “The nation shall rise like a lion” — ‎"עם כלביא יקום וכארי יתנשא"

Good morning family, friends, and the Jewish community. Just approximately 12 hours ago is when Israel entered a preemptive strike against Iran who wants to and wanted to annihilate the Jewish people. Prime Minister Benyam Netanyahu went to the hotel and placed a note beforehand and he put in the famous verse from the Bible from the prophecy that Bum gave for the Jewish people when Bullock hired Bum to curse the Jewish people. Instead, he gave us the greatest blessings. A matter of fact, the Reb in his last talk in paras where it speaks about this verse in the year, the last talk of the Reb, the Reb says that this verse speaks about the ultimate redemption because it doesn't talk about exile. It talks about true liberation, true Israel standing strong with Hashem. And this is the most powerful prophecy of redemption that the Jewish people are going to stand strong like a lion. So Rashi the commentary in the Kum says what is this powerful standing strong like a lion and Rashi says you know what the real power of the Jewish people why they're successful because they get up in the morning they put on their talit they wear the and they say they recognize the only one and true existence in the world is God and the Reb goes on to explain in a powerful letter that he has with a cabalist And he says, "What is the connection between saying and a lion?" And the Reb explains because we know in the world there's so many different powers and so many different energies. Like in Cababal, it's called as if there's two powers going on. But when you say, what you're saying is there is only one power. And not only the godly soul says there's one power, but the animal soul said as well says there is one power. everyone is united in one front that we only have one god and that is basically the connection to a lion because a lion devour something when it's alive and know when we say we include our animal soul we're bringing a live force of the animal soul dedicated to hashem so I think the lesson over here is Israel is doing great thanks to Hashem and thanks to us praying what we need to do and we all want to do something we need to put on our tal put on fill in if you're a man and then obviously everyone say the not only say it but realize we only have one God learn Torah do mitzvot and pray and like the Reb actually in that last talk in parishes bulk he explained this verse and he encouraged people learn Torah because we know there's no such thing as a free person we all want freedom you want to be free study Torah and the specifically speaks about learning where it speaks about in the Torah the laws of Messiah and not just the way it's going to be in the future, but we see it's actually happening and we're going to learn what's going to happen life when Messiah comes, the laws of the temple, the laws of the coming of Messiah, everything that's needed for Mashiach comes. So, let's hope and pray we use this opportunity to continue to connect to God. realize we have one God and the whole world will realize there is one God on the world by doing Hashem's mitzvos putting on talis putting on fillin saying the schma studying Torah and most importantly the Reb says in that in that gathering to be happy and matter of fact it's interesting because the rebidic talk it was on the 17th day of the month of tamas and 17 we know is is is the numerical value for for which means Good. Because we know Tess is nine and and and and VV is six. 9 and six is 15 and and Vay is two. So which is 17. And the strike took place when? Today, which is the 17th day of the month of of of of um of of Son. So 17th is good. Today is a good day. And let's bring out the goodness by continuing to do what Hashem wants, learning Tyra, praying, and doing mitzvot. And the whole world is going to see that love the we're a lion. We get up in the morning, the first thing in the morning, do the mitzvah of and we'll continue to be successful and the whole world will realize that Hashem is the only real force in this world. Have a great day and a Shabbat shalom.
