Geula Update from Rav Fish - Yitro 5774

From Rav Fish's latest:

• Rav Kaduri ZT"L about Sharon
• During the years 5764, 5765, and 5766, when the righteous sustained so much discontent from Prime Minister Ariel Sharon - after he established a government with Tommy Lapid to oppress the Haredim, and together with this, expelled the inhabitants of Gush Katif, etc. - the Gaon Mekubal Rav Yitzhak Kaduri ZT"L said in his Shiur that Sharon is the last prime minister before Mashiah and after Sharon will be the Mashiah. [YY - see also here.]  Also, during that period, Rav Kaduri's Havruta, the Gaon Mekubal Rav Shemuel Darzi ZT"L tried to perform the breaking of the neck of a Petter Hamor in order to cause the downfall of the Sharon government.  However, when people came to take pictures, he cried out to the donkey, "Rasha, they don't let me break your neck!"  And immediately after this incident, Rav Darzi ZT"L passed away.  And a few days after Rav Darzi ZT"L passed away, Sharon suffered a stroke, from which he had not recovered until he passed away.  And also Rav Kaduri ZT"L passed away that same month, a few weeks after Sharon suffered his stroke, as we'll see.  (Rav Darzi ZT"L passed away on Shabbat, the 23rd of Kislev, 5766.  Sharon suffered his stroke on the 4th of Tevet [YY - should be the 5th of Tevet, as I wrote here], 5766.  Rav Kaduri ZT"L passed away on the 29th of Tevet, 5766.)  
• We see that Rav Kaduri ZT"L understood that Sharon was the Kelipa that enclothes Redemption, and when that shell is peeled off, we will merit the fruit that is inside it.  
• And really, we see the connection between the Kelipa and the fruit.  The name "Ariel", which is a name for the Beit Hamikdash, appears 4 times in connection with exile and Destruction in the verses (Yeshaya 29:1-2) הוֹי אֲרִיאֵל אֲרִיאֵל, קִרְיַת חָנָה דָוִד; סְפוּ שָׁנָה עַל-שָׁנָה, חַגִּים יִנְקֹפוּ. וַהֲצִיקוֹתִי, לַאֲרִיאֵל; וְהָיְתָה תַאֲנִיָּה וַאֲנִיָּה, וְהָיְתָה לִּי כַּאֲרִיאֵל  [Ah, Ariel, Ariel, the city where David encamped! Add ye year to year, let the feasts come round! Then will I distress Ariel, and there shall be mourning and moaning; and she shall be unto Me as a hearth of God.]  And it is also written (Divrei Hayamim Alef 11:22)  הוּא הִכָּה, אֵת שְׁנֵי אֲרִיאֵל מוֹאָב [he smote the two altar-hearths of Moab].  We see the connection between אריאל [Ariel] and Mo'av, which is the Kelipa that enclothes Mashiah Ben David, who comes from Mo'av.  Also, Sharon had a house in the Old City of Yerushalayim, which has the aspect of "Ariel, Ariel, the city where David encamped!"
• Even though people simply understood the words of Rav Kaduri ZT"L to mean that the "Prime Minister" that will come after Sharon will be the Mashiah, it's possible that he was hinting that after Sharon will die will be the Mashiah.  And really, we saw a wondrous thing that in Tevet, 5766 when Sharon fell to his final sickness, Rav Kaduri ZT"L passed away.
• And Sharon was in a coma for 8 years and 40 days.  
• And the number 40 also symbolizes Bina - the eighth [Sefira when counting up].  
• This is as it is written (Iyov 3:13): יָשַׁנְתִּי, אָז.  The word "אז" is the gematria of 8.
• Also, the sickness is called an ארוע מוחי (brain incident).  The word מח symbolizes the eighth.
• The connection between "Sharon" and Shabbat "Shira", when he passed away - and to the eighth - is amazing.
• We explained that the eighth is the Sod of Redemption, which comes from Ima Ila'a [YY - Bina] and also the Shira was said about the Future Redemption.
• We find in the Zohar (Bereishit 29a) on the verse "חֲבַצֶּלֶת הַשָּׁרוֹן" that the name "Sharon" symbolizes the eighth Yovel.  Also, "Shirah" is in the eighth Sod, as is brought down in Tikkunei Zohar 28b, where it connects the verse אז ישיר to 8 as אז has the gematria of 8.
• And אריאל שרון plus the words = 800.
• And his wife's name - לילי - has the gematria of 80.
• [YY - See also the translation of Shir Hashirim 2:1 that we mentioned earlier.]
• And his first wife's name - מרגלית - also symbolizes the eighth, as is known in the Ariza"l having to do with the מרגלאן, which comes from Binah.
• Also, Mispar Katan of אריאל is 8.
• Also, Mispar Katan of שרון is 8x2.
• And his army unit is "Unit 101".  101 symbolizes the eighth since 100 = Malchut = 10x10.  And 1 symbolizes the eighth as we explained in "the essays about the eighth" that אחת [with the Kollel] is the same gematria as שמיני.
• And this is the greatness of one who learns 101 times, where he connects with the eighth, which represents the supernatural.
• Also, in the past, when elections would be close to Shabbat Shira, Maran Hagaon Rav Ovadia Yosef ZT"L said that שירה is Rashei Teivot for שרון יהיה ראש הממשלה (Sharon will be the prime minister).
• And those who expound on verses said at the time that אריק יבחר (Arik [Sharon] would be elected) is hinted to from the verse אָרִיק חַרְבִּי.
• Also, the letters of שרון are close to the letters of שירה.
• And the birthplace of Sharon was in Kfar Malal, which hints to the influence of the eighth - Ima, which is in the Sod of חיות אש ממללות.
• And it also hints to Berit Milah, which happens on the 8th day.
• And Sharon died at age 85, the gematria of מילה.
• כפר מלל has the gematria of אליהו הנביא זכור לטוב.
• Also, Ariel Sharon's birthday is on Purim, which has a connection to Berit Milah, as the gemara (Megilla 16b) says: "Sasson" refers to Milah.
• Also, שמיני (eighth) symbolizes שומן (fats) and שמן (oil) as is known in books of Hassidut.
• And there is a hint to this in a verse in Shirat Ha'azinu (Devarim 32:15) וַיִּשְׁמַן יְשֻׁרוּן וַיִּבְעָט  [But Jeshurun waxed fat, and kicked].
• And besides the fact that Sharon was on the heavier side, he was also known as a jokester, and the Kelipa of Leitzanut (mocking humor) enclothes the root of Tzehok (holy humor) of King David, as was brought down in the essay "Tzion and Yerushalayim".
• And on the other hand, להבדיל אלף אלפי הבדלות, Maran Hamekubal Rav Yitzhak (יצחק) Kaduri ZT"L, who was the antithesis of Sharon, was from the root of King David from the Tzehok of holiness.
• As it was known, Rav Kaduri was constantly in a state of happiness.
• Also, כדורי (Kaduri) symbolizes the aspect of game and play in the Torah, as is brought down in the Yerushalmi (Sanhedrin 50a): "[on the verse]  דִּבְרֵי חֲכָמִים כַּדָּרְבֹנוֹת ... like a ball among the girls."
• Also, the letters of כדורי are דרך י"ו, which is the aspect of Yesod that connects to the eighth.
• Also, we see that Sharon got involved in the mess in לבנון (Lebanon) and was relieved of his command for many years.
• לבנון, as is אריאל, is a name for the Beit Hamikdash.
• לבנון symbolizes the eighth, as is brought down in the Matok Midevash on the Zohar (Hayei Sarah 132a) that לבנון is Notrikon for ל"ב (the 32) pathways of חכמה and נו"ן gates of בינה - to hint that לבנון symbolizes the Sefirot of Hochma and Binah, which symbolize the eighth.
• Also, his being involved was claimed to be the cause of the war between the Xtians and Muslims in Lebanon.  This is a hint to the Gog Umagog War which will be a war between Xtians and Muslims.  All this shows that indeed, we're talking about the Kelipa that enclothes the Beit Hamikdash, Redemption, and the Gog Umagog War.
• Also, "א' שרון" is hinted to in the verse (Bemidbar 24:17) אֶרְאֶנּוּ וְלֹא עַתָּה, אֲשׁוּרֶנּוּ וְלֹא קָרוֹב [I see him, but not now; I behold him, but not nigh] that talks about the Keitz of Redemption.
• Also, אריאל שרון backwards is נור שלא ירא [fire that did not fear].
• As is known, he feared nothing in the world.
• And he was the aspect of fire - אש - which is the Rashei Teivot of his name אריאל שרון.
• Also, the Sofei Teivot of his name has the gematria of 80.
• It is brought down in the Gr"a (Sukkah 52a) that there is an aspect of MBY of Kelipa where at the time he dies, will begin the revelation of the Meshihim of holiness.
• This is in the Sod of slaughtering the Yetzer Hara in the future.
• (This is also the Sod of breaking the neck of the donkey, as is brought down in the Zohar Bo 43a.)
• And also, it is brought down in the book of the righteous Mekubal Rav Baruch Shapira ZT"L from Ma'aleh Adumim that Sharon as the aspect of ראש אפרים [the head of Ephraim, as in this verse].
• Rav Eliyahu Buhbut adds that שרון [Sharon] is hinted to in שומרון [Shomron], which was the capital city of the Kingdom of Ephraim after it broke away from the Davidic Kingdom.
• And it hints to the Kelipa that enclothes the Davidic Kingdom.
• Also, Ahav, who ruled in Shomron, fought against the sages of Israel.
• Also, ראש אפרים and ראש שמרון are mentioned in a verse that appears in the continuation of the Haftara of Yitro when Sharon died (since he died on Shabbat of Beshalah in the afternoon when they already started reading Parshat Yitro). The verse is (Yeshaya 7:9) וְרֹאשׁ אֶפְרַיִם שֹׁמְרוֹן, וְרֹאשׁ שֹׁמְרוֹן בֶּן-רְמַלְיָהוּ [And the head of Ephraim is Samaria, and the head of Samaria is Remaliah's son] and we explained that this Haftara of משני זנבות האורים העשנים hints to the end of the State of Israel [YY - see also here and here.] 
• And Tu Bishvat, 5774, that falls in that same week, is connected with trees which symbolizes Yesod.
• Rav Moshe Levinger adds that during the same time period of Sharon's funeral occurred an earthquake with a magnitude of 3.5 at the settlement of She'ar Yashuv.  And we explained that this settlement is connected to this prophecy, as was explained regarding the helicopter tragedy in 5756.
• Also, the number 3.5 is connected to the years 5772-5775, as we said earlier.
• Also, in the letters אריאל שרון are hinted the letters ארי שור נשר, who symbolize the 3 lines of Kelipa that are included in Yesod.
• And also, we see that Sharon had all 3 lines [of philosophy]:  Sometimes, he stuck to the left of the Kelipa and destroyed settlements and sometimes, he stuck to the right of the Kelipa and built settlements, etc.
• Also, his sons: Gilad and Omri are names of the tribe of Yosef (Ahav, the son of Omri, etc.)
• Also, Sharon was especially famous in the Yom Kippur War having crossed the Suez Canal in the Yam Suf.
• This is a hint to Keri'at Yam Suf.
• It is also a hint to Yom Kippur, which has the Sod of the eighth, as is known in the Siddur of the Rashash (whose Yahrtzeit is on 10 Shevat too) that on Yom Hakippurim, we go up to Ima Ila'a [Binah].
• Also, תעלה (canal) is the gematria of שיר (song).
• Also, מלחמת יום כיפור (Yom Kippur War) is the gematria of אריאל שרון לילי (Ariel Sharon, Lily) plus the letters.
• And this number - 890 - is also the name of the battalion (Paratroopers Battalion 890) in the army.
• Also, Sharon's home was in חות השקמים (Sycamore Ranch), which shares the same Rashei Teivot as חבצלת השרון.
• Rav Glazerson adds [as also found here] that Sharon died 10 Shevat, 5774, which was exactly 10 years after 10 Shevat, 5764, which was when he decided to enact the Disengagement from Gush Katif. 
• Rav Yitzhak Buganim adds that the expulsion of citizens from Gush Katif was completed in 8 days.
• See 2 Torah code tables from Rav Glazerson at the source.
• The gemara in Yoma 10a says the war in the future will be between Rome and Persia, but there are differing opinions who will be victorious.  According to the view that Edom will fall in the hands of Persia, the verse used is לָכֵן שִׁמְעוּ עֲצַת-יְהוָה, אֲשֶׁר יָעַץ אֶל-אֱדוֹם, וּמַחְשְׁבוֹתָיו, אֲשֶׁר חָשַׁב אֶל-יֹשְׁבֵי תֵימָן: אִם-לוֹא יִסְחָבוּם צְעִירֵי הַצֹּאן, אִם-לֹא יַשִּׁים עֲלֵיהֶם נְוֵהֶם [Therefore hear ye the counsel of the LORD, that He hath taken against Edom; and His purposes, that He hath purposed against the inhabitants of Teman: surely the least of the flock shall drag them away, surely their habitation shall be appalled at them.]  If you count Hashem's name as 91 (by adding the way it's read and the way it's written together) [and you remove the ו from the word לוא], the gematria of this verse is 5774.
