what are we waiting for?
WE CLAIM TO BE WAITING FOR MESSIAH'S COMING EVERYDAY. WHY ARE WE WAITING? WHY DON'T WE JUST GO ON WITH LIFE? WHY DO WE PLACE SO MUCH STOCK IN THE COMING OF ONE WHO HASN'T YET COME?
FURTHERMORE IS THIS JUST A NAIVE NOTION OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN PERSECUTED TO EXPECT SOMEONE TO COME AND MAKE THINGS RIGHT? PERHAPS WE SHOULD TAKE OUR DESTINY IN OUR OWN HANDS AND GO FROM THERE?
IS THIS EVEN HEALTHY TO INSPIRE CHILDREN TO ANTICIPATE SOMETHING THAT HASN'T HAPPENED IN 2000 YEARS OF BITTER EXILE?
STILL THE VOICE OF HOPE LETS ITSELF INTO THE CONSCIOUS MIND AND ARGUES THERE MUST BE SOME SENSE TO ALL OF THIS THERE MUST BE SOME JUSTICE.
IT IS ALSO UNIVERSAL. THE WHOLE WORLD REALLY SEEKS AND YEARNS FOR A MESSIAH. COULD THE WHOLE WORLD BE WRONG?
THE FACT THAT WE HAVE THE BELIEF THAT THERE IS SUPPOSED TO BE A FAIR SETTLEMENT OF ALL MATTERS, THAT THERE WILL BE A SOOTHING HAND AND A PLEASANT VOICE THAT WILL BRING US ALL TOGETHER INDICATES THAT WE ARE PRE-PROGRAMMED FOR MESSIAH.
WHAT MESSIAH IS SUPPOSED TO ACCOMPLISH AND WHAT WE MUST DO BEFORE AND AFTER ARE MATTERS OF SPECULATION. THE VERY FACT THAT WE ARE ALL FASCINATED AND ENTICED BY SUCH A POSSIBILITY INDICATES VERY STRONGLY THAT IT IS HEALTHY TO WAIT EXPECTANTLY EVEN WHILE WE DO WHATEVER WE CAN TO MAKE THE WORLD RIGHT!

THE LEPER AND THE PERVERT
AFTER DISCUSSING THE LEPER=THE ONE WHO SETS HIMSELF APART FROM SOCIETY, THE ONE WHO CAN CRITICIZE BUT HIMSELF IS ABOVE CRITICISM, THE TORAH TALKS IN COUCHED TERMS ABOUT THE PERVERT.
THIS IS THE ZAV. WHAT IS A ZAV? ONE WHO HAS CONTRACTED VENEREAL DISEASE.THE TORAH IMPLIES THAT DUE TO SEXUAL DEVIANCE CERTAIN DISEASES BECOME RAMPANT. THESE INCLUDE THE SYMPTOMS OF VENEREAL PROBLEMS BOTH MALE AND FEMALE.
THE TORAH IS ALSO CLEAR THAT BY KEEPING THE MIKVAH LAWS THESE PROBLEMS CAN BE AVOIDED.
IT IS A FACT THAT UP UNTIL 2 GENERATIONS AGO THERE WERE CERTAIN TYPES OF WOMAN'S CANCER THAT DID NOT OCCUR IN JEWISH WOMEN. RESEARCHERS IDENTIFIED THE AVOIDANCE OF RELATIONS DURING THE MENSES AS WELL AS THE CLEANSING PROCESS AS BEING THE MOST LIKELY REASON FOR THESE CANCERS NOT TO APPEAR AMONGST JEWISH WOMEN.
TODAY THIS HAS CHANGED,HOWEVER THOSE WHO STILL KEEP THEIR MOTHERS' WAYS STILL HAVE THE SAME RESULTS. WHILE DIFFERENT THEORIES ABOUND THE BOTTOM LINE IS THAT JEWISH LIFE AND TRADITIONAL VALUES DO HELP US EVEN IN MUNDANE MATTERS.
THE PERVERT IS DISTINCT FROM THE LEPER SO WHY IS HE INCLUDED IN THE SECTION ABOUT THE LEPER? BECAUSE WHEN A PERSON LOOKS DOWN AT OTHERS
HE BECOMES THE LAW IN HIS MIND. IN SUCH A STATE THE LEPER BECOMES THE PERVERT! PERHAPS NOT IN THE FULL FLEDGED SENSE . THE LEPER BELIEVES THAT ONLY HIS WAY IS RIGHT. IN ESSENCE HE CREATES HIS OWN MORALITY . IN TRUTH MOST OFTEN HIS MORES ARE A PERVERSION OF THE TRUTH. AS SUCH HE IS THE PERVERT FOR HE HAS PERVERTED THE LAW OF G-D FOR HIS OWN RULES!
AS SUCH HE CAN EASILY SUCCUMB TO DEVIANT BEHAVIOR FOR HE HAS AN EXCUSE FOR EVERYTHING HE DOES. FOR HIS WAYS ARE TRUTH AND GOODNESS-NOT YOURS OR MINE. HIS SPIN IS THE ONLY CORRECT ONE. IT IS TO HIS STANDARDS THAT ALL ARE TO BE MEASURED. THIS IS SPIRITUAL PERVERSION WHICH IS FAR WORSE THAN THE IGNORANT INDULGENT!

THE CURE OF THE LEPER
MY FATHER'S YAHRTZEIT WAS THIS MONDAY, THE SECOND OF NISSAN. IN THIS SMALL WAY I SHARE THE FATE OF THE PREVIOUS LUBAVITCHER REBBE Z.T.L. WHO ALSO LOST HIS ILLUSTRIOUS FATHER ON THE SECOND OF NISSAN. MY FATHER WAS
MATURE BEYOND HIS YEARS AND WHEN HITLER BEGAN THREATENING WORLD JEWRY, HE JOINED THE BETAR MOVEMENT TO PROTECT HIMSELF AND HIS LOVED ONES.
ON YOM KIPPUR IN 1939 THE GERMANS ENTERRED KRASNABROD, A SMALL CITY WITH ABOUT 4000 JEWS. THEY SHOT THE 10 OLDEST MEN OF THE CITY IN FRONT OF THE WORSHIPERS IN THE SHUL. MY GRANDFATHER WAS THE CHAZAN AND HE WAS THEN CHOSEN AMONGST 100 MEN TO BE SHOT IN AN OPEN FIELD. THEY WERE FORCED TO DIG THEIR OWN GRAVES , STRIP AND AS THE GUNS WERE READIED A POLISH OFFICER ,RIDING ON A HORSE CAME AND ASKED IN THE NAME OF THE GENEVA CONVENTION THAT CIVILIANS NOT BE EXECUTED IN WARTIME.
THE OFFICER IN CHARGE WAS A WHERMACHT, NOT AN SS EXTERMINATOR AGREED AND ORDERED THE MEN TO RUN ACROSS THE FIELD NAKED. SHOTS WERE FIRED OVER THEIR HEADS,TO SIMULATE AN ESCAPE TO THE WOODS.
MY GRANDFATHER SPENT THE REST OF YOM KIPPUR NAKED AND FRIGHTENED IN THE WOODS.
MY FATHER HAD SEEN ENOUGH. WHEN THE RUSSIANS CAME HE WAS ABLE TO SAVE
SOME OF HIS MOTHER'S STORE WARES FROM THE POLISH LOOTER WHO WAS TRYING TO SELL THEM. WHEN THE RUSSIANS EVACUATED, HE LEFT ON THE LAST LORRY HOPING TO CONVINCE HIS BELOVED PARENTS TO FOLLOW HIM. TAKING HIS YOUNGER BROTHER WITH HIM THEY ARRIVED IN BIYALISTOK ON SHABBOS. PEOPLE WERE INCREDULOUS. TO BE FAIR, THEY COULDN'T HAVE IMAGINED THE DEATH
AND DESTRUCTION THAT WAS BEING PERPETRATED BY THE GERMANS AS ONLY THE RUSSIANS HAD COME AND THEY DID NOT INTERFERE IN PRIVATE LIFE AS YET.
SEEING THAT CONDITIONS IN THEIR CITY HAD NOT IMPROVED WHEN THE GERMANS CAME BACK AND MISSING THEIR CHILDREN, MY GRANDPARENTS WENT AFTER THEM TO BIYALISTOK.
THERE, THE RUSSIANS ASKED ONLY ONE QUESTION-"DO YOU WNT A RUSSIAN PASSPORT OR A POLISH ONE"? MY GRANDFATHER ANSWERD , AS DID 90% OF THE REFUGEES THAT THEY WERE HAPPY TO REMAIN AS POLISH CITIZENS AND AFTER THE WAR ENDED THEY INTENDED TO RESETTLE IN KRASNABROD.
THAT NIGHT, AT THE STROKE OF MIDNIGHT , FOR TENS OF THOUSANDS OF JEWISH REFUGEES, CALAMITY STRUCK. THE RUSSIANS ORDERED THEM TO LEAVE WITHIN 30 MINUTES WITH ONLY WHAT THEY COULD CARRY WITH THEM. THEY WERE LED AT GUNPOINT INTO CATTLECARS WITH NO FOOD OR WATER.
THE TRAINRIDE LSATED FOR DAYS. MANY DIED ON THE WAY. THEY WERE THUSLY DEPOSITED AT A FORCED LABOR CAMP IN ARCHANGEL IN NORTHERN LAPLAND.
THERE THERE WAS LIMITED FOOD, PERPETUAL DARKNESS AND SUBZERO WEATHER.
HERE, THEY HAD TO OBEY THE COMISSARS , CHOP WOOD AND SURVIVE IN THE HARSH NORTHERN CLIMATE.
WHEN HITLER INVADED RUSSIA , THE REFUGEES WERE ALLOWED TO GO TO OTHER PLACES IN THE INTERIOR, FOR BY THEN THE RUSSIANS HAD MADE AN AGREEMENT WITH THE POLISH GOVERNMENT IN EXILE TO GRANT THEIR CITIZENS CIVIL RIGHTS.
HOWEVER, CONDITIONS IN THE SOVIET UNION HARDLY IMPROVED. DISEASE WAS RAMPANT AND HUNGER WAS YOUR COMPANION. FOR 6 YEARS THEY STRUGGLED AND SURVIVED THE WORKER'S PARADISE, UNTIL THEY COULD RETURN TO THEIR HOMES IN POLAND. FOR ALL THOSE 6 BITTER YEARS , MY GRANDFATHER BLAMED MY FATHER FOR THEIR SUFFERINGS,THE LACK OF FOOD, MEDICINE AND THE FEAR OF ARREST OR VIOLENCE WHICH AWAITED ANYONE JEWISH.
HE WAS NOT FORGIVEN FOR HIS "ERROR" UNTIL THEY RETURNED TO POLAND AND SAW THE TERRIBLE TRUTH!
WHAT HAD APPEARED AS SATANIC ANGELS SENDING THEM TO SIBERIA WERE REALLY ANGELS OF MERCY THAT ALLOWED 200,000 POLISH JEWS TO SURVIVE THE WAR. THE POLES HAD GLEEFULLY ASSISTED IN THE EXTERMINATION OF JEWS. THEY WERE ALSO DISAPPOINTED TO SEE THE SURVIVORS TRYING TO REPOSSESS THEIR HOMES.JEWS WERE MURDERED IN THE STREETS AND THE REFUGEES FLED TO THE DP CAMPS WHERE I WAS BORN.
THINK ABOUT IT,THEY WERE FORCED AT GUNPOINT TO ENTER CATTLECARS TO GO TO A FORCED LABOR CXAMP. MANY DIED ON THE WAY AND CONDITIONS WERE BRUTAL.IT WAS THE SAME EXPERIENCE THAT OTHER JEWS WOULD HAVE IN GERMAN TERRITORIES. THEIR FRIGHT WAS NO LESS .
YET THE RESULTS WERE DIFFERENT. FOR THEM THEY ONLY HAD TO BE DIPPED IN THE BLOOD-THE EXPERIENCE OF THE SLAUGHTERED HALF OF THE OLD WORLD'S JEWS. THE SURVIVING BIRD=HALF WAS THEN CAST INTO THE UNFAMILIAR TERRITORYWHERE THEY WOULD LEARN TO LIVE AGAIN.
WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF THE SECOND BIRD . OUR PARENTS CARRIED WITH THEM NOT ONLY THE SCARS OF THEIR SURVIVAL BUT THE MISSION TO CONTINUE FOR THE SAKE OF THE SLAUGHTERED BIRD, FOR THE CURE OF THE LEPER.
WHAT IS THE LEPER?THE PEOPLE WHO BELIEVE THAT THE WAY OF THE JEW MUST
NOT DEVIATE FROM THE WAYS AROUND HIM. THAT OUR SUCCESS COMES FROM CURRYING FAVOR FROM PEOPLE IN POWER. THAT OUR DESTINY IS TO DISAPPEAR AND BLEND AMONG THE NATIONS. THAT SOMEHOW OUR PEOPLE ARE LESS THAN GOOD AND RIGHTEOUS.
THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH JEWS AND JEWISHNESS. THER IS ONLY SMALLMINDEDNESS AND DIVISIVENESS THAT HURTS OUR PEOPLE'S HEALTH AND STABILITY. THE HO;OCAUST CANNOT BE JUSTIFIED. HOWEVER, WE MUST LEARN FROM IT. THE REAL LESSON IS THAT WE NEED NOT BE INTIMIDATED BY ANYTHING IN ORDER TO BE WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE CAN BE. WE MUST BECOME ONE PEOPLE WITH A MESSAGE FOR THE WORLD ,RATHER THAN BE ONLY A RECIPIENT OF WORLD MORES.
THOSE MORES LEAD TO SOCIALISM AND FASCISM AS WELL AS ISLAMO-FASCISM.
WE HAVE NOTHING TO BE ASHAMED OF , WE MUST STAND PROUD AND STATE THAT
THE BELIEF IN A UNIFORM WORD ORDER RESTS WITH ACCEPTING THE CODE THAT LIES IN THE TORAH FOR ALL PEOPLE. IT IS CALLED THE NOACHITE CODE. IN IT ALL MEN AND THEIR LIFE AND PROPERTIES ARE EQUAL BEFORE G-D. ALL MEN HAVE EQUAL OPPORTUNITIES FOR LIFE,LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS.
THIS IS ALSO WHAT THE MOSHIACH WILL BRING FOR ALL.
HE TOO, IS A LEPER. HIS LEPROSY COMES HIS ALLERGY TOWARD HATRED AND PREJUDICE.
MAY THE CURE OF THE LEPER HAVE BEEN FULFILLED THROUGH THE SACRIFICED BIRDS AND THEIR SURVIVORS...AMEN

the leper's cure
THE TORAH TELLS US THAT THE LEPER=MOSHIACH OR THE JEWISH PEOPLE WILL BE CURED OF THEIR LEPROSY. THE FINISHING TOUCHES OF THIS PROCESS WAS TO TAKE TWO WILD BIRDS ,KILL ONE OF THEM AND DIP THE SECOND IN THE BLOOD
OF THE FIRST AND SHAKE THE SECOND BIRD AND SPRINKLE THE WATER AND BLOOD MIXTURE IT WAS DIPPED IN UPON THE LEPER.
THIS WAS DONE TOGETHER WITH A CEDAR STICK,BOUGH OF HYSSOPP WRAPPED IN A THREAD OF SCARLET WOOL. BY IMMERSING THE OBJECTS IN A MIXTURE OF "LIVING WATER" AND THE BLOOD OF THE FIRST BIRD THE LEPER WOULD CONCLUDE HIS HEALING AND PURIFICATION.
THE LEPER IS US AND THE LEPROSY IS OUR RELIANCE ON MEN AND NATURAL MEANS TO THE EXCLUSION OF G-D. WE HAD TO BE SHAKEN OUT OF THIS GOLUS MENTALITY. WUITH THE LEPER IT REPRESENTED THE CONCEPT THAT THE DEAD BIRD WAS GONE =THE BIRD BEING ATTITUDE AND A NEW ATTITUDE WAS GOTTEN BY CASTING THE LIVE BIRD TO ITS' OWN DESIGNS FOR SURVIVAL TOWARD THE "FACE OF THE FIELD".
THIS HAPPENED WITH THE HOLOCAUST. HALF OF THE OLD WORLD'S JEWS WERE MURDERED AND THE OTHER HALF SURVIVED. HOWEVER, THE OTHER BIRD=HALF OF JEWRY WAS SHAKEN UP WITH THE FEAR AND DREAD OF THE FIRST BIRD. IN THE PROCESS OF RE-ESTABLISHING THEIR LIVES,THE SURVIVARS HAD NO PARENTS GUIDES OR TEACHJERS TELLING THEM HOW TO LIVE. THEY WERE CAST INTO THE FIELD ,THE WILD FIELDS ,UNFAMILIAR TO THEM IN ORDER TO REBUILD THE COSMIC CONSCIOUSNESS OF OUR PEOPLE.
WE ARE THE CHILDREN OF THE SURVIVORS WHO WERE CAST TO CIRCUMSTANCE IN ORDER TO SURVIVE. NOT ONLY DID THEY SURVIVE , THEY FLOURISHED.
THE REASON FOR THEIR SUCCESS? G-D GAVE THEM THE AWARENESS THAT THEY COULD NO LONGER DO THINGS THE OLD WAY . THEY HAD TO REBUILD JEWISH RESOLVE , IDENTITY AND ULTIMATELY , A NEW SPIRITUALITY.
THIS IS THE RUACH OF CHANGE, THE SPIRIT OF THE MOSHIACH THAT RESIDES WITHIN EACH OF US..
