Geula Update From Rav Fish - Ki Tisa 5772 - Part 1

From Rav Fish's latest (link available when ready now):

• The Midrash (Shoher Tov 9) says that as long as Amalek is around, His name (השם) and His throne (כסא) will not be complete.  The gematria of the Milui (hinting to completeness) of both words (הא שין מם כף סמך אלף) is 777 - ה'תשע"ב.
• The Benei Yissaschar (Tamuz-Av 2:8) writes that there are 4 things that are not complete in this world, but will be completed when Mashiah comes: ירושלים is missing a י and אליהו is missing a ו and כסא is missing an א and Hashem's name is missing ו"ה.  The words ירושלים אליהו כסא הוי"ה have the gematria of ה'תשע"ג.
• Moshe lifted his hands in the Amalek War for 3 hours to pray for the 3 hours of the Gog Umagog War.  The Keli Yakar on Shemot 17:12 says that עד בא השמש hints to Mashiah's time.  עד בא has Rashei Teivot of ע"ב.  Also, עד בא השמש hints to when the sun begins to set - a hint to Minha Gedola.
• The Midrash (Yalkut Shimoni Bereishit 41) says that HKB"H showed Adam Harishon all the generations, and saw that King David was only supposed to live for 3 hours so he gave him 70 years of his life to King David.  We can understand the 3 hours as the 3 hours of Gog Umagog which is the true life of King David, where Hashem destroys evil and the period of Mashiah Ben David's reign begins.  When those 3 hours start, that's when King David will receive the true time allotted to him from Heaven.
• The gemara Rosh Hashana 11a, Midrash Tanhuma Bemidbar 14 and Tikkunei Zohar 6a all say that the future Redemption is in the merit of the Patriarchs and Matriarchs.  If you take the Milui of אברהם יצחק יעקב שרה רבקה רחל לאה - using the מלוי ההי"ן for the ה in אברהם but the מילוי האלפי"ן for the ה of שרה רבקה לאה, you get:
  
  אל"ף בֵּי"ת רֵי"שׁ הֵ"ה מֶ"מ יוֹ"ד צָדִ"י חֵ"ת קוֹ"ף יוֹ"ד עַיִ"ן קוֹ"ף בֵּי"ת שִׂי"ן רֵי"שׁ הֵ"א רֵי"שׁ בֵּי"ת קוֹ"ף הֵ"א רֵי"שׁ חֵי"ת לָמֶ"ד לָמֶ"ד אָלֶ"ף הֵ"א
  you get the gematria of 5772.
• [On the Alef Bet gematria that came out to 5772, as also noted by Shirat Devorah]  Rabbi David Katz Shlit"a adds that the Milui used is יודי"ן to hint to Hashem's name that adds up to 72 using the Milui of יודי"ן.
• R' M. Z. Shlit"a adds that the one verse in Tana"ch that has all 22 letters + the 5 end letters is Tzephania 3:8:  לָכֵן חַכּוּ-לִי נְאֻם-יְהוָה, לְיוֹם קוּמִי לְעַד:  כִּי מִשְׁפָּטִי לֶאֱסֹף גּוֹיִם לְקָבְצִי מַמְלָכוֹת, לִשְׁפֹּךְ עֲלֵיהֶם זַעְמִי כֹּל חֲרוֹן אַפִּי--כִּי בְּאֵשׁ קִנְאָתִי, תֵּאָכֵל כָּל-הָאָרֶץ, which is a verse that talks about Gog Umagog.  The verse that follows stresses the importance of Leshon Hakodesh.  The Zohar Hadash at the end of Shir Hashirim shows a connection between all the letters of the Alef Bet and the שם ע"ב.
• The book "Zohar Hai" from Rav Yitzhak Isaac of Kamarna ZT"L (Pekudei) writes that the gematria of all the letters of the Alef Bet + the end letters is 1775.  This hints to the verse that has to do with the Keitz: וְאֶת-הָאֶלֶף וּשְׁבַע הַמֵּאוֹת, וַחֲמִשָּׁה וְשִׁבְעִים, עָשָׂה וָוִים, לָעַמּוּדִים according to the Ariza"l.
• The number of Simanim of Shulhan Aruch is 1705.  This equals the gematria of אֹרַח חַיִּים, יוֹרֶה דֵּעָה, חוֹשֶׁן מִשְׁפָּט, אֶבֶן הָעֶזֶר.  This hints to the fact that a man, in his 70 years on earth, needs to live his life according to the number 1705 - which is the Shulhan Aruch, and then, he will merit the number 1775, which is the number of Redemption.  Also, the 7 shephards - אברהם יצחק ישראל משה אהרן יוסף דוד - with the words are the gematria of 1705.
• The Hoshen (חשן) is the gematria of Mashiah (משיח).  The letters of the Alef Bet (1495) + the names of Hashem which are the Sod of the Urim Vetumim (72 + 42) + the gematria of what was written on the stones of the Hoshen according to the Rambam on Yoma 7:4: אַבְרָהָם יִצְחָק יַעֲקֹב, רְאוּבֵן שִׁמְעוֹן לֵוִי יְהוּדָה יִשָּשׂכָר זְבוּלֻן דָּן נַפְתָּלִי גָּד אָשֵׁר יוֹסֵף בִּנְיָמִין שִׁבְטֵי יָהּ with the words and the Kollel (4168) = 5772.  [YY - I got 5777.  I don't know the discrepancy.] 
• We were redeemed from Egypt because of the merit of blood of Mila.  Similarly, in the Future Redemption.  Rav Avigdor Aharonson Shlit"a adds that יסוד ברית מילה is the gematria of ה'תשע"ב.
• Tikkunei Zohar 119a says that HKB"H will take revenge against both Kayin and [his great-great-great-great-grandson] Lemech and that's what it means when it says כִּי שִׁבְעָתַיִם, יֻקַּם-קָיִן; וְלֶמֶךְ, שִׁבְעִים וְשִׁבְעָה [If Cain shall be avenged sevenfold, truly Lamech seventy and sevenfold.] and that's what it means by בלע המות לנצח.  We see that the verse כִּי שִׁבְעָתַיִם, יֻקַּם-קָיִן refers to the revenge at the time of Redemption.  The year תשע"ב is the first letters of שבעתים.  It implies that the revenge will come after 7 generations, so if we combine the number 7 with 77, we get 777, the gematria of ה'תשע"ב.  Also, תשע"ב is the letters of ע' שבת, or 77.
• The gematria of the first blessing of the Amida (again, without the Hatima - ending of the blessing):  בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֵינוּ וֵאלֹהֵי אֲבֹתֵינוּ. אֱלֹהֵי אַבְרָהָם. אֱלֹהֵי יִצְחָק. וֵאלֹהֵי יַעֲקֹב. הָאֵל הַגָּדֹל הַגִּבֹּר וְהַנּוֹרָא אֵל עֶלְיוֹן. גֹּמֵל חֲסָדִים טוֹבִים. קוֹנֵה הַכֹּל. וְזוֹכֵר חַסְדֵּי אָבוֹת. וּמֵבִיא גֹאֵל לִבְנֵי בְנֵיהֶם לְמַעַן שְׁמוֹ בְּאַהֲבָה: מֶלֶךְ עוֹזֵר וּמוֹשִׁיעַ וּמָגֵן is 5773.
• The gematria of the end of the Amida: עֲשֵׂה לְמַעַן שְׁמֶךָ. עֲשֵׂה לְמַעַן יְמִינֶךָ עֲשֵׂה לְמַעַן קְדֻשָּׁתֶךָ. עֲשֵׂה לְמַעַן תּוֹרָתֶךָ. לְמַעַן יֵחָלְצוּן יְדִידֶיךָ הוֹשִׁיעָה יְמִינְךָ וַעֲנֵנִי with the words is 5772 and the Tur (Orah Hayim 122) brings down in the name of Shemuel that whoever says those 4 עשה למען prayers will merit to greet the Shechina, and that he himself has the custom of preceding those words with a prayer to bring Mashiah closer.
• מקדש is 444, multiplied by 13 = 5772.  Shekalim 6:3 says that there were 13 gates in the Beit Hamikdash.  Yoma 54a says that there were 13 curtains in the Mikdash.  Rabbeinu Bahye (Vayikra 6:2) says that there were 13 types of sacrifices in the Mikdash.  Midrash Tanhuma (Teruma 5) says that Israel donated 13 things to the Mishkan.  Also, Shekalim 6:1 says that there were 13 Shofars, 13 tables and 13 bowings in the Mikdash.  Also, we find in Yoma 25a that 13 Kohanim dealt with the daily sacrifice which had 13 tasks.  Also, the Greeks fought against the Beit Hamikdash by making 13 breaches, as the Mishna in Midot (2:3) says, which is why the 13 bowings were instituted.
• Rav Avigdor Aharonson adds that יהיה עולם מתוקן is the gematria of 772.
• Psalm 93, according to the Metzudat David and the implication from Rashi, has to do with the days of Mashiah.  We say this pslam on Friday, which corresponds to the 6th millennium.  Rav Avigdor Aharonson adds that תהלים צדיק גימל is the gematria of 772.  The gemara in Pesahim 117b implies that there is meaning behind the division of the chapters of Tehillim.
• Tikkunei Zohar (4a) says: בְּדַרְגַּת יַעֲקֹב תָּלוּי קֵץ הַגְּאֻלָּה, שֶׁדַּרְגָּתוֹ אֱמֶת. זֶהוּ שֶׁכָּתוּב תִּתֵּן אֱמֶ''ת לְיַעֲקֹב,
  שֶׁהוּא סִימָן אֶלֶף מָאתַיִם תִּשְׁעִים. אֶרֶץ אֶלֶף רָ''ץ, מָאתַיִם וְתִשְׁעִים, לְקַיֵּם בָּהֶם "אֱמֶ''ת מֵאֶרֶ''ץ תִּצְמָח", כְּשֶׁיִּהְיוּ בַחוּץ כְּחֶשְׁבּוֹן אֶרֶ''ץ.  The Zohar explains that the Keitz of Daniel of 1290 years is hinted to in the word אר"ץ, which is אלף רץ and all this is connected to the trait of truth of Yaakov, whose merit will let us be redeemed.  It appears we could say that if we take the gematria of אמת (which is 441) + the מ of מארץ (which is 40) + the 1290 of ארץ, we get 1771, which hints to 5772, and with the Kollel, it's 5772.
• The number of years from the destruction of the Beit Hamikdash (in 3828) until the end of 5772 is 1945.  1945 is the gematria of וְלִירוּשָׁלַיִם עִירְךָ בְּרַחֲמִים תָּשׁוּב with the words and the Kollel.
• The Sephardic Nusah for the 7th blessing of the Amida, while using the Kabbalistic name of Hashem for that blessing and by using 500 for a final Chaf and 700 for a final Nun:  רְאֵה נָא בְעָנְיֵנוּ וְרִיבָה רִיבֵנוּ. וּמַהֵר לְגָאֳלֵנוּ גְּאוּלָה שְׁלֵמָה לְמַעַן שְׁמֶךָ כִּי אֵל גּוֹאֵל חָזָק אָתָּה, בָּרוּךְ אַתָּה יאהדונהי, גּוֹאֵל יִשְׂרָאֵל is 5772.  [YY - I got 5815.  I don't know the discrepancy.]
• I heard from Rav Yisrael Gliss Shlit"a that for the first time, they recently saw caperbushes growing between the stones of the Kotel close to the small stairs in the women's section, and producing fruit - something that they never saw before.  It's brought down in the book "Sha'arei Yerushalayim" by R' Moshe Reisher ZT"L that was published in 5278 on the verse מֵצִיץ מִן-הַחֲרַכִּים [he peereth through the lattice] that if fruits come out between the walls of the Kotel, we will know that the Redemption is at the doorway.  
• The word for caperbushes צלף is hinted to in the verse (Tehillim 31:20) מָה רַב-טוּבְךָ, אֲשֶׁר-צָפַנְתָּ לִּירֵאֶיךָ: פָּעַלְתָּ, לַחֹסִים בָּךְ; נֶגֶד, בְּנֵי אָדָם [Oh how abundant is Thy goodness, which Thou hast laid up for them that fear Thee; {N} which Thou hast wrought for them that take their refuge in Thee, in the sight of the sons of men!]
• (Another amazing thing I heard from Rav Yisrael Gliss Shlit"a: that there is a cave in northern Israel in Kfar Kabul wherein are buried the Ibn Ezra, Ribbi Shelomo Ibn Gabirol, and Ribbi Yehuda Halevi.  There is a tradition that is brought down in the book "Hibat Yerushalayim" and other books that every year on the night of Tish'a Be'av, a great wailing sound is heard from the cave.  He related that he and others tried to go there on the night of Tish'a Be'av to investigate this tradition, but the Druze villagers closed the village on that day and darkened their homes, claiming that there were noises coming out of the cave and they wouldn't let anyone enter, whereas the rest of the year, they have no objection to anyone entering.)
