Geula Update from Rav Fish - Vayeishev, 5772

From Rav Fish's latest:
  • As Yaakov's ladder hints to the Keitz (as the Midrash states and as the Baal Haturim says והנה סלם = וקץ),  we can understand why וַיַּחֲלֹם וְהִנֵּה מַלְאֲכֵי אֱלֹהִים עֹלִים וְיֹרְדִים בּוֹ has the gematria of תשע"ה.
  • The 3 flocks of sheep in Bereishit 29:2, according to Ba'alei Hatosefot, refer to the 3 exiles - Mitzrayim, Bavel, and Edom.  The words from this verse "עֶדְרֵי צֹאן רֹבְצִים" equal  תשע"א, if adding the words and the Kollel.
  • Or Hahayim on Bereishit 32:3 says "עשו אחיו" refers to the time when Esav and Yaakov were brothers - until the Hurban, "ארצה שעיר" refers to the time after the Hurban when Esav was on top, and "שדה אדום" refers to when Mashiah comes when Esav will be plowed like a field.  R' Shlomo Breyer Shlit"a says that the Targum on "שדה אדום" is "לחקלי אדום" (according to more accurate versions), whose gematria is 229 - the number of years until the end of the millennium.
  • Baal Haturim on the next verse says that the words "עד עתה" refers to the 3 exiles of Mitzrayim, Bavel, and Edom. "וָאֵחַר עַד עָתָּה" is the gematria of תשע"ג with the letters
  • The Yerushalmi in Sota says that Shimshon wanted reward for his eyes - 1 for this world and 1 for the future.  The 'עין הב hints to the year of ע"ב, which is 72 (i.e. 5772)
  • R' Tzion Sivoni Shlit"a said that we need to add 1290 to 1335 and count from the destruction of the first Beit Hamikdash in 3338, which brings us to 5963.  Just like in Egypt the redemption came 190 years earlier than it was supposed to, the same will occur here, which brings us to 5773.
  • R' Yitzchak Ginsburg Shlit"a said that דַּמֶּשֶׂק בַּגְדַּד קַהִיר (Damascus, Baghdad, Cairo) equals the gematria of תשע"ב, hinting to the fact that in this year, we will merit to overpower these 3 Kelipot, and the salvation of Israel will sprout.  Like the Lubavitcher Rebbe said during the Yom Kippur War, when the IDF was close to Damascus, that they should capture it - even for one day - to subdue its Kelipa.
  • R' Tzion Sivoni Shlit"a adds that אחמדיניג'אד (Ahmedinejad) is the same gematria as אסלם (Islam) which is the same letters as the angel known as ס"מ - to hint to the fact that Ahmedinejad is bringing the entire Islam - Yishmael - toward the War of Gog Umagog, which is a war between Edom and Yishmael.
  • He also adds that תשע"ד is Notrikon of תשעת דוד and of תשובו עד ה' אלקיך. Also, תשע"ג is Notrikon for תְּשֻׁעָה גדולה.
  • R' Moshe Mizrahi Shlit"a adds that Bereishit 44:1 (וַיְצַו אֶת אֲשֶׁר עַל בֵּיתוֹ לֵאמר מַלֵּא אֶת אַמְתְּחֹת הָאֲנָשִׁים אכֶל כַּאֲשֶׁר יוּכְלוּן שְׂאֵת וְשִׂים כֶּסֶף אִישׁ בְּפִי אַמְתַּחְתּוֹ) hints to תשע"ב and חתם אמת, which refers to the Berit Milah, which is influenced by Yosef since this year, the influence of the plenty of Mashiah ben Yosef starts toward the side of holiness.  Also, חותם is hinted in a 3-letter backward interval in Bereishit 43:18 הַכֶּסֶף הַשָּׁב בְּאַמְתְּחֹתֵינוּ בַּתְּחִלָּה.
  • The Geula comes when evening turns to morning.  Bereishit Rabba 21:1 - לִכְשֶׁיַּעֲשֶׂה עִרְבָן שֶׁל יִשְׂרָאֵל בֹּקֶר.  Also, Midrash Peliah: מָתַי יָבֹא מָשִׁיחַ, אָמַר לָהֶם וַיְהִי עֶרֶב וַיְהִי בֹקֶר יוֹם הַשִּׁשִּׁי.  This obviously is referring to the sixth millennium.  R' Yosef Sheinburger Shlit"a explains that it hints to the idea that when it will be "ויהי ערב (evening)" - i.e. Minha Gedola of the sixth millennium, then we can merit "ויהי בקר (morning)".
  • The Klausenberger Rebbe ZT"L in 5735 that is brought down here.
  • R' Eliyahu Mann Shlit"a, a relative of R' Chaim Kanievsky Shlit"a, said that last Shemitta year, Rav Chaim Kanievsky told a few supporters of Keren Hashevi'it that it would be the last Shemitta that they would be able to merit in the Mitzvah.  
  • A Jew to whom a baby boy with a brain defect was born came to Rav Chaim Kanievsky downtrodden.  Rav Chaim told him that it won't take long until Mashiah comes.  
  • R' Don Segel Shlit"a spoke recently that we are presently in the time of "evening" and the Redemption is at the doorway, and he mentioned the verse "הָסִרוּ אֶת אֱלֹהֵי הַנֵּכָר אֲשֶׁר בְּתֹכֲכֶם וְהִטַּהֲרוּ".
  • Pirkei DeRibbi Eliezer (chapter 30) says that the children of Yishmael in the future will build the desolate cities in Eretz Yisrael and will clear the pathways in the End of Days.  It's worth noting a story brought down in "Otzerot Aharit Hayamim" (153) that once when R' Zerach Reuven Braverman ZT"L was by R' Yehoshua Leib Diskin ZT"L, they heard the whistling of the train that started traveling to Yerushalayim for the first time, and R' Yehoshua Leib Diskin commented, "They are already clearing the pathways and the time of the Redemption is near."  And what would we say today where there is already a light-rail inside Yerushalayim that passes the Mekom Hamikdash, and we clearly see that HKB"H is preparing the pathways for those who will be Oleh Regel soon.
  • The Baal HaTanya expounded the verse פדה בשלום נפשי when he left the prison on 19 Kislev, meaning that from that day forward, he could publicize the inner secrets of the Torah.  פדה בשלום נפשי is the gematria of י"ט כסלו תשע"ב, meaning that this year is the completion of what he started.
  • R' Yehonatan G. Shlit"a added that the birth of the Baal Shem Tov was 18 Elul, 5458, which is an hour before sunrise of the sixth millennium - i.e. Alot Hashahar.
  • Maharsha on Bava Batra 74b says that in every generation from the time that the wicked kingdom (Edom) arose, they decreed against us not to be busy with Torah and Mitzvot, etc.  Then came the kingdom of Yishmael and as we saw for the most part, in the kingdoms of Yishmael which were kingdoms of kindness, permission was granted for anyone to accept the yoke of Torah and its Mitzvot.
  • We also find in the gemara Menahot 98a with the explanation of Rabbeinu Gershom that they engraved on the eastern gate of the Beit Hamikdash the image of Shushan Habira as a sign of gratitude to the kingdom of Persia who granted them permission to build the Beit Hamikdash.  We see that the Kingdom of Persia which is related to Yishmael (as is brought in the Malbim on Yehezkel 38:5) has no opposition to the Beit Hamikdash.
  • (After quoting the Ramban who says that Tehiyat Hameitim will occur before the year 5800), the verse says קֵץ בָּא הַקֵּץ עַל אַרְבַּע כַּנְפוֹת הָאָרֶץ: עַתָּה הַקֵּץ עָלַיךְִ.  The words עַתָּה הַקֵּץ עָלַיךְִ have a gematria of 800, meaning that after "An end! the end is come upon the four corners of the land", the era of the Ketz will conclude in the year 5800.
  • The word "Eretz" doesn't appear in Megillat Esther, but rather, "Medina", which is an expression of "Din" (judgement) and a similar gematria as חצי (half), to hint to the Sod of Nesira.  Also, the word "Yisrael" doesn't appear in the Megila as "Yisrael" symbolizes the Ze'eir Anpin, which was sleeping during the entire episode of Purim with the aspect of the slumber that Hashem caused to Adam Harishon when He built Hava.  Hence, "Yisrael", if we could say such a thing, didn't exist in Megilat Esther.  This also is occurring in our days where there is a Medina via the Kelipot, which is with the Sod of Nesira, which prepares for the Geula.  And even though the Medina is given the name "Yisrael", true Yisrael is slumbering, just like during the era of Purim.

Now if Tav Shin Ayin Hey, which is a Shmittah year, is the keitz for Gog UMagog so that Mashiach ben David can come in the 8th year, Can we safely assume that Tav Shin Ayin Bet is for Mashiach ben Yosef??

Also, unless there are two Rav Yosef Scheinbergers, I believe that Rav Scheinberger zt"l of the Eidah Chareidit was niftar several years ago. A bracha from Rav Scheinberger was forever. May he be a malitz yasher.

Dear Ya'ak: You have proven the point that I made earlier about 5772 being the year of MBY and 5776 being the year of MBD. The only reason that there is any prosperity at all in the 4th year 5772 is because MBY is the Mashiach that is mepharnes HaOlam from the Highest Heaven. Now the world will still hate his guts, but they will begrudgingly have to accept that without Mr. Yud Key Vav, MBY whoever that may turn out to be, there would be no prosperity in the New World Order of Atereth HaYesod, the Yesod being Yosef who wears the Atarah of Malkhut when the Atarah is on Yesod. Yet, since he only comes to power in the middle of the year by Purim, G-d willing, the year is half poverty and half abundance. So until Purim we continue the slide toward international bankruptcy, a process that will accelerate this week if Greece totally defaults on the first day of Chanukah. Now, Baruch HaShem, we were saved from the worst of the poverty of the 3rd year because Papendreou did not send those flotilla ships during Tamuz and by doing so fulfilling Bila'am's last prophesy. So thousands of tzaddikim did not die from the starvation of the 3rd year. May this geulah process continue to be with Rachamim. Amen. So now we are in the 4th year without the gut-wrenching poverty of the third year, for 5771 was really no worse economically than 5770, the 2nd year, primarily because for whatever reason Papnedreaou did not send the flotilla ships.

Now the 6th year of the Shmittah cycle is 5774, a year when the special Haftarah for Pinchus is read in Shul associated of course with Eliyahu NaNavi running away from Jezebel and receiving the eschatology of the Acharit HaYamim Sefer Eliyahu, is the return of Kolot, the spirit of prophesy. And the leading prophet in the 6th year will be Eliyahu HaNavi who will return in the 6th year to prepare the Klal Yisrael for the coming of Mashiach ben David in the 8th year. Now Eliyahu lost the right to herald Mashiach ben Yosef because in that very haftarah he tried to return the Torah to G-d. And G-d told him three things: 1. Anoint Elisha as your successor. 2. You will attend every brit and every Pesach Seder for the rest of time to prove to you that Israel has not abandoned Me. 3. You are to give up 5 Vavs from your name and these Vavs were given to Ya'akov which is spelled with a Vav five times in Tanakh, the most famous time of Zecharti eth Briti Ya'akov...

So Eliyahu has to appear in the 6th year half way in between the arrival of MBY in the 4th year of the cycle (5772) and MBD in the 8th year of the cycle (5776). So we read that Haftarah in 5771 to remind Eliyahu of the fact that he lost the privelege to herald MBY, But we also will read it again in 5774 when Eliyahu arrives on the scene in the 6th year to herald the coming of MBD after the final stages of Gog UMagog in the 7th year 5775. Keep in mind that it is MBY that represents the Vav from Ya'akov's name in VaYikra, when HaShem remembers his covenant with Ya'akov by adding a Vav to Ya'akov's Name and to His Great and holy Name so that Amalek can be defeated in the world, once and for all by MBY. Yet, without Eliyahu HaNavi heralding his coming, the full process is hidden from us (tzafun) just like the 3rd cup of wine at the Pesach Seder comes from Tzafun. The first two cups were related to the Redemption from Egypt and the Yud and the first Key in HaShem's Name. The Yud was the ten plagues, and the Hey was the five times multiplier effect at the Yam Suf. Since there were ten plagues in Egypt, therefore there were 50 at the Sea, etc. The last two cups of wine are associated with the Final Redemption and the larger piece of Matzah, and therefore greater redemption which had been hidden. The third cup of wine is MBY. Then comes Kos Eliyahu, and only then comes the rest of Hallel and MBDavid's 4th cup. IN THAT ORDER!! Chazal made a big deal about the order of events at the Seder that the very word Seder means Order.

I noticed that the Eliyahu haftarah was also read in 5765 and 5768. As you know from my Cosmic Clock, 5765 was supposed to be the First Year of Sukkot, a year of B'itah Achishena. As a matter of fact, I distinctly remember Rav Mordechai Eliyahu saying that Eliyahu HaNavi himself would show up in Gush Katif to stop the evacuations. It kind of makes one wonder who by their behavior stopped this wonderful decree from occurring. Pity we blew it, for in that year many in our midst could not pass that simple test of common decency that was presented in that year of which the Targum Yonatan spoke of 2000 years ago when he described the destruction of Kiryat Dekalim by its fellow Jews. Real pity that we missed out on Gog ben Gog Bush being the kinder and gentler Gog of Achishena within b'itah. Thinking about this makes me sad and angry, but I wish those who could not be decent in that year that they would do teshuvah b'Yirah now before that teshuvah gate is closed forever. My 5 year old son at the time who came from the country of Adams, Jefferson, Washington, and Lincoln could have made a more decent choice at that time. No wonder why we lost that final Achishena opportunity. So now it is b'itah, B'itah, and more b'itah, and there is no way that those same people who stood in the way of Redemption starting in 5765 can step up and blow it for the rest of us this time around. Baruch HaShem, that the decent amongst us all get to keep our sanity.

Finally, it should be pointed out that even though this process is B'itah in its fullest sense, the only real Onshim after the Shoah for the Klal in general will be for our lack of common decency. After the Shoah for the vast majority of the world's Ashkenazic Jews at least, the tests of Olam HaBa revolve solely around common decency and marrying within the Jewish people, giving one's son a brit milah, and avoiding gossip. So the coming of MBY, the Mashiach that establishes common decency lishma, will be with suffering for those who cannot be decent since being a tinok shenishba is never an excuse to be indecent. Sorry about that, that after Adam and Chava ate of the fruit, the Yesod of decency in the world is the big 7 Laws of common decency. Since the Eitz HaDa'ath is the soul root for MBY according to Rav Vital, human decency lishma has always been a key for human beings to have Olam haBa after the original Cheit. After human decency is established by MBY as being the Yesod HaOlam, the road to Mashiach ben David will be with tremendous Rachamim even though it will take at least three years but less than four years. This 3 1/2 year period is needed for birur, to weed out amongst those who are Shomrei Mitzvot those who do not keep the Torah in order to be more decent, or in the word's of Hillel HaZaqen: "Do not do unto others that which is hateful to yourself." Those who are Shomrei Mitzvot must surely come to the conclusion that this is not just a yesod of the Torah but the purpose of keeping the Torah. End of Story. So please quickly do not be part of the Erev Zeir by refusing to accept this bedrock principle of the Torah. For Jews who are already observant, the birur is to not be a part of the Erev Zeir. For Jews who are not shomrei Torah yet, the 3 1/2 years is to provide both a path to becoming more observant (in the 5th and 6th years) and to not be a part of the Erev Rav at peril of their own death at the hands of MBY. So in the full b'itah process those 3 1/2 to 4 years of MBY are essential in order that there be this final birur which was made necessary by the enabling of the Evacuation of Kiryat Dekalim which was Moshe Rabbeinu's last prophetic vision brought down by the Targum Yonatan. Please, for G-d's sake and your own spiritual survival, find Rabbaim who will lead you by this path of human decency first kadmah to the Torah. With MBY in the imminent future, there is no more time to play games with your eternal soul. If your Rav could care less about the Gush Katif fiasco while it was occurring, you should be asking serious questions about who should be your Rav at this most critical juncture in human history.

One last thing. It should be remembered that the Gush Katif fiasco was meant to take place before the arrival of Mashiach ben Yosef. And the Targum Yonatan says that the residents of Newe Dekalim were gilgulim of students of Elisha not Eliyahu. So the prophet that would have shown up there to stop the evacuation if we had played all of our human decency cards right was most likely Elisha not Eliyahu. And then in 5766 during the 2nd Lebanon War Machiach ben Yosef would have appeared in the Galil. The 5768 reference point was the last year of Gog ben Gog from the Land of Magog (land of the Apache and the Navajo) as President of the US who would have arrived with NATO (Gomer and Togarmah) and the Russians (Meshach and Tuval) to divide Jerusalem at that juncture when at that time Eliyahu HaNavi would have arrived b'itah Achishena to be mevaser for Mashiach ben David to arrive in 5769. But lo and behold, it was not to be. So now we get a different Gog, but Obuzzard is doubtfully that man. He is anti-Gog. At the precise moment that the Persians are about to become a nuclear power, Obuzzard is leaving Botzrah, Iraq rather than fortifying his existing positions there. So yes he may turn out to be the 11th horn in Sefer Daniel, half iron and half clay (Rome and Yishmael), but we will only know that to be true if he is re-elected in 2012. Yet, unlike the Gog described in Yechezkel, Obuzzard does not want to gather wealth for Edom. He wants to redistribute the wealth of Edom amongst the Third World. Not a very good Gog is he. Yes, he wants to divide Yerushalayim, but not for the purpose of creating prosperity for Edom. So who is the final Gog? He has not yet shown up. He could be from the Mongol regions of the Russian Empire which would be from the Eastern part of Russia where the Mongols (Magogites) live in large numbers. Perhaps the guy who will replace Putin will be from there. Perhaps the new leader of Russia will be the gilgul of Ghengis Khan. Perhaps but no way of knowing at this time.

True Yisrael (Yosef) G-d willing with prayer, might get out of an American prison within the next few weeks. Pray hard for Yehonatan ben Malka. 26 years is way too much. Until then we are stuck with Sha'ul of Binyamin matrilinearly with a patriliear Yud Key Vav in his last name, better than the Erev Rav but still a dead end unless he somehow changes.
