Pam Larson Knowing Gawd through his word day by day@wordpress.com July 25 2 Chronicles 34 -36

Pam’s blog offers but only a retelling of Biblical tales. Her blog retells old stories … as if ignorant Goyim just learned how to read a book. With no commentary, the question stands: what does ancient tales concerning the long dead kingdom of Yechuda have to due with Xtian faith, spirituality, and their Gawd awful avodah zarah? Her blog —– completely silent, it even prevents comments or questions.

First year yeshiva students within the study halls of baali t’shuva Yeshivot across Israel, duplicate this rote like instruction called שקלא וטריא. Roughly translated as negotiations or debate. But this translation fails to validate the rote style of memorization of the page of Gemara made by young Yeshiva students, who most recently broke their teeth and learned how to read a page of Gemarah. Learning how to learn Gemarah takes years, hundreds upon hundreds of hours, sitting with close rabbinic instruction … and even then the vast majority of Yeshiva bochim, they fail to grasp the Big Picture across the board interconnections which define the nature of all the Primary Sources contained within the Jewish masoret\traditions.

In my early years as a Yeshiva bocher, endured this primitive style of baby learning at Ohr Sma’ach in Jerusalem. But after about 8 months, completely disgusted, (both the rabbis of that institution and myself), we mutually thought it wise for us to part company. Moved to D’var Yerushalim and their met Rav Aaron Nemuraskii and rabbi Waldman. These two rabbis truly imprinted upon me, a unique sh’itta of learning, which years later would develop into the style of learning by which this blog interprets all Torah Primary sources. Development of an across the board sh’itta of how to systematically learn and interpret the Masoret, permanently changed my life.

Neither of these seminal, highly influential rabbis, at all interested in rote שקלא וטריא narishkiet\non sense. Their repudiation of rote learning shaped how much later, their student – myself – would develop a harsh and critical view of Reshonim commentary scholarship made on T’NaCH, Midrash, Talmudic, and Siddur Primary sources of Yiddishkeit; the dogmatism of current rabbis beliefs touching ירידת הדורות totally disgusts me. It reminded me of the Nazi Untermensch propaganda which Europeans used as a crutch to justify the attempt to systematically exterminate the Jewish people from all Europe and Russia.

View most Reshonim scholarship as an expression of failure. Specifically the short comings of rabbinic leadership to check and prevent Jewish assimilation throughout the long g’lut within Europe and Islamic countries. This blog tends to isolate the scholarship of the “Untermensch” Rambam as contrasted by the far superior French school of Talmudic scholarship, the Rashi and Baali Tosafot commentaries made upon the Talmud and Chumash (Torah commentaries). The bane of my existence personally, it goes hand in hand together with Jewish societies throughout history; we share an identical destiny as a whole.

Nothing has caused more destruction and distress than assimilation to non brit cultures and customs. Assimilation where the Jewish people “ape” the manners, customs and ways of peoples and societies who never accepted the revelation of the Torah @ Sinai & Horev; while at the same time losing all contact and knowledge of the Cohen civilization which accepts to this day the revelation of the Torah at Sinai and Horev every time we accept the ‘Yoke of Heaven’ … when we say kre’a shma evening and morning respectively.

During my first year learning as a ‘baali t’shuvah’, in a Yeshiva on the outskirts of Har Nof, a Chabad Yeshiva, (The kindness, and generosity of the folk of that community I always remember with a profound sense of gratitude.), the rabbinic teachers, while very nice and supportive, their shallow understanding of how to interpret the Siddur greatly distressed me. Then came the Rebbe as Moshiach narishkeit, this ‘final straw’, combined with my own personal failures to due t’shuvah, severed my relations with Chabad chassidus.

It took the great merits of my wife Karen, to cause me to bow my head and accept\grasp the responsibility for my failure to due t’shuvah. This obligation rests fully upon my own shoulders. In matters of t’shuvah, all fingers point to myself. The responsibility to due t’shuvah rests solely within my own heart. T’shuvah, this great mitzva which defines the k’vanna of tefillah; it likewise and equally defines that moment wherein HaShem asked Adam why he ate from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. The aggadic story of Adam in the garden, this mussar defines and shapes the total k’vanna of the mitzva דאורייתא of t’shuvah, for all generations of bnai brit, unto all eternity in time.

Xtianity, does not limit its rejection of the Oral Torah, but equally rejects the Written Torah. The bible perversion of Old and New Testaments serves as a primary witness which the above accusation makes; and which this blog submits unto the judgment of the reading audience. Even with the most casual of observations, it becomes immediately obvious that the Mishna, (how much more so its Gemarah commentary), has made a radical and drastic change in both style and content when compared to the much earlier T’NaCH sources. This most apparent of distinctions, caused the counterfeit New Testament supporters to decide they had absolutely no interest or need to learn from rabbinic sources which produced Talmudic, Midrashic, and Siddur sources.

This profound error of judgment serves witness that the new testament counterfeit shares no “graft of Paul theology” with Yiddishkeit. All Xtian biblical scholarship, not only did they bury or worse burn rabbinic literature which studies the T’NaCH, they radically altered the organization of the structure\organization of all T’NaCH Books. Assimilated Rambam would duplicate this exact error, when he published his 14 volume Yad Hachazakah code of Jewish law. This error caused a profound ירידות הדורות in all generations, both Goyim and Jews, and how their later generations learned both T’NaCH and Talmud with an amputated right arm.

To reach this astounding conclusion took a gestation period of more than 30 years. Perhaps Rabbi Walman planted the seed of this mussar into my heart when he personally showed me where Rashi disputed an opinion expressed by Onqelos Targum on the Chumash. Remember asking in shock, how Rashi, a Reshon, could argue with a Tanna (a sage who lived before Rabbi Yechuda wrote the Mishna)? By the terms of the modern rabbinic mantra dogma of ירידת הדורות, a later generation could not possibly dispute with an earlier generation!!! Rav Waldman’s t’shuva, have never forgotten. No generation owns a lock & monopoly upon logic. Rashi challenged the logic by which the Tanna Onqelos expressed his opinion.

Later the dispute between Rashi and the Baali Tosafot over how to learn the 13 middot of Rabbi Yishmael; when I saw in Rashi’s commentary to the NaCH that he learned from his own Gezirah Shava! Realized that Rashi and Tosafot did not dispute with each other, in that famous “dispute” over how to learn the פשט of a page of Gemarah.

That Rashi’s comment to the Talmud which limited the uses of Rabbi Yishmael’s 13 middot unto a Kal v’Chomer (a fortiori, or major to minor דיוק inference), that it based itself upon the recognition that Rav Ashi sealed the Sha’s Bavli as the permanent masoret of all generations of Israel to this very day! In effect, based upon the sealed Masoret of the Sha’s Bavli, Rashi’s explanation which on the surface, severely limited use of Rabbi Yishmael’s 13 middot of logic … in point of fact, Rashi’s comment makes a critical דיוק, it made an inverse argument. To learn correctly how to learn whether T’NaCH or Talmud, this scholarship requires the skill to know how to make logical דיוקים based upon employment of all of Rabbi Yishmael’s 13 middot of logic. The sealing of the Sha’s Bavli\Yerushalmi,,, this decree made the Talmud the masoret of all generations of Israel.

Arrived at this conclusion while Rav Aaron personally instructed me on a sh’itta of how to learn, how to learn. Rav Aaron did not teach this sh’itta to his son. This bothered both of us, (his son & myself) for years. Why?

Rav Aaron, a great חכם, he viewed his talmidim as vessels. Old skins cannot hold new wine. Rav Aaron’s son lived among traditional observant Jewry. Traditional Judaism has developed its own unique dogmatism. The vast majority of Observant Jewry, simply will not tolerate deviation from the dogma of their defined and designated sh’itta of learning. A glaring example: the rabbinic narishkeit which has developed concerning the coming of the Moshiach.

Not nearly as wise as Rav Aaron, attempted to reveal this sh’itta of learning to Moshe Eli, Karen’s only son. The attempt, it shattered our relationship together. From that time on, Moshe Eli had absolutely no interest what so ever – to learn Torah together with me. This failure to educate Karen’s children, shot straight across the board, Karen’s three daughters likewise viewed my Torah with the deepest of suspicion. They too had no interest to learn Torah through my sh’itta of learning. Herein explains how I personally answer the question of why Rav Aaron revealed the פרדס kabbalah to me and not to his son.

Rav Aaron understood, at least it appears to me as such, that for me to challenge and harshly criticize Reshonim scholarship made upon T’NaCH and Talmudic Primary sources, not a difficulty for me, seeing that my background came from a socialist non religious almost totally assimilated non Jewish social environment. Perhaps 5 Jewish families lived in Midland Texas, the place of my birth. When Rav Waldman revealed to me that Rashi disputed an opinion taught by the Tanna Onqelos, he did it privately and spoke almost in a whisper. Both חכמים understood, that even in a baali t’shuvah Yeshiva, that most talmidim could not handle this revelation.

Specifically, Oral Torah consists of Logic rather than Law. That most, if not almost all the post Rambam Reshonim, the Baal Ha’Turim stands out as a very strong example of the difference between his work from that halachic code which his father the Rosh produced. Even Yosef Karo spoke of the Tur commentary in terms almost worthy of contempt when compared to the Rambam and the early Reshonim.

The Rosh made a precise commentary upon the terse language employed by the Baali Tosafot. The Rosh modeled his sh’itta of learning based upon the Rif. By sharp 180° contrast, both the Tur and Shulchan Aruch “parroted” the gross errors committed the assimilated Rambam רשע. The Rambam did not know, much less follow the logic kabbalah of פרדס – as taught by Rabbi Akiva and all his Talmudic talmidim. Assimilated Rambam organized the structure of his code of law based upon the errors first committed by the Xtian church’s reorganization of the bible & the foreign alien logic developed by that Greek – Aristotle. Assimilation, the first face of avodah zarah, a direct profanation of the 2nd Commandment of Sinai.

Let’s learn. Contrast Pam’s rote learning of regurgitating T’NaCH sources by comparing her דברי הימים\Chronicles with a sugia in מלכים ב. Specifically מלכים ב כב:א – כג:ל.

King Yoshiyyahu followed the way of King Shlomo in matters of the beit hamikdash. King David obeyed the mussar given by the prophet Natan and understood that the mitzva to build the beit hamikdash centered upon following the Last Will and Testament of Moshe Rabbeinu, to construct the 6 Cities of Refuge most essentially requires the establishment of the Sanhedrin lateral Common law Federal Courts System. King Yoshiyyahu followed the avodah zarah first established by King Shlomo. Hence when he went to war, HaShem did not war against the Gods worshiped by King Nekho, Par’o of Egypt.

The Order of Rashi tefillen stands upon the oath brit sworn at Gilgal in the days of the prophet Yehoshua. The faith of this brit oath, that just as HaShem made war against the Gods worshiped by Par’o in the days of Moshe, so too HaShem would make war against the Gods worshiped by the kingdoms of Canaan. Yoshiyyahu suffered total military defeat before the armies of king Nekho. King Shlomo failed to obey the oath brit faith like as did King David. King David, the model by which all Kings of Israel stand in judgment. Concerning the fall of King Yoshiyyahu in the war he waged against Egypt, the sages teach that Israel placed their idols behind their doors. That when Yoshiyyahu made search for avodah zarah in the camp of Israel, that he failed to search behind the opened doors.

Avodah zarah does NOT, most essentially concern the worship of idols. The sin of the משל ‘golden calf’ requires making the logical דיוק נמשל! Translating the רוח הקודש thirteen Oral Torah middot Spirits whereby a person pronounces the Name of HaShem revealed in the First Commandment of Sinai; herein defines the נמשל דיוק of the Gemarah explanation for the military defeat of King Yoshiyyahu in war … the nation of Israel obeyed the commandments of the king, but not לשמה. When ever the nation of Israel honors HaShem with our lips but not WITHIN our hearts, Israel goes unto g’lut\exile. This mussar, it applies just as much to Jews living in Israel today as it did when the T’NaCH prophets commanded that mussar a long long long time ago.

Following the sh’itta\methodology ‘ whereby the Gemara makes a search for precedents by which to gauge the k’vanna of a Case\Rule Mishna,,, shall bring a precedent and follow it up with an even closer precedent. יחזקאל יא:יד-יג:ז vs. יד:ב-טז:נ. Learning by the discipline of comparing precedents with even closer precedents does not compare to the childlike stupidity and immaturity of rote learning; line by line, here a little, there a little narishkeit. Mussar does not view the visions of the prophets as history that happened a long long long time ago. The discovery of dinosaur bones does not disturb the mussar of the Creation story.

  1. Man, that’s opened my eyes! In an attempt to understand your post I googled a few of the words that, on first read, had no meaning for me and found that they have translations that render your post meaningful and, dare I say it, rather insightful. But, like – wow – a whole new universe, one that I never expected, has revealed itself to me. Thank you.

      2. Integrating T’NaCH prophetic mussar with Talmudic halachic ritual. In the last two days made a summery:

        NarrowPathMinistries@wordpress.com How to Respond to Scripture Rejectors

        First Order of business: touching the evil Xtian bible MISTRANSLATIONS – INTENTIONAL SLANDER — wherein their bible books with original intent – did slander and pervert the Hebrew\Aramaic T’NaCH …

        All T’NaCH prophets command Mussar. Mussar defines the meaning of the word “prophecy spoken by prophets”. Xtianity, followed by the Muslim Koran wherein every 7th word, or there abouts, repeats the prophet this, or the prophet that etc etc etc etc etc etc. Something like the Polish saying: Od nasiona do rośliny\\{a poor translation: from seed to flower} or Od nasiona do drewna//{from seed to tree}. This defining perpetual error: It perverts ethical mussar unto physical history. But the T’NaCH has no purpose or intent to express the physical history of bnai brit societies of the past. Mitzvot only applicable to the living not the dead. Bible put ancient Israelite history upon a pedestal. It perverts a “historic” description of JeZeus the counterfeit Greek\Roman messiah into a God.

        This gross perversion, comparable to that made by aristocratic land owners within the Southern Confederacy of States, who declared that the bible permits slavery. No. The T’NaCH recognizes the way how virtually all agricultural based societies farmed their lands. Ever try removing seeds from raw cotton fibers w\o a cotton engine? Separating those seeds, captured and contained with intertwined cotton fibers – requires intense manual concentrated labor.

        Agricultural based economies therefore required slave labor. The aristocratic land owning minute 1% minority made money though owning slaves who work and farmed their lands. This Xtian perversion of the bible as history, it totally ignores the T’NaCH economic revolution, which established, for the first time, that all citizens merited the status of “land owners”. Not till the American and French revolutions would a comparable revolution occur. These two revolutions institutionalized citizens who had Rights over serfs who existed as slaves. The Xtian bible translations totally ignores the k’vanna\intent of the mitzva of sh’mita\\the 7th year release// of all debts owed, and the 50 year Yovel/Jubilee which returns all sold properties back to their original land owners.

        T’NaCH does not teach history. True where there’s smoke — also fire. In ancient times a people of Israel existed within the borders of the first Common Wealth. But to confuse smoke as fire, incredibly stupid. People hostile to the influence the Hebrew T’NaCH has on shaping Jewish culture, customs, and identity, they often declare “they do not believe in the bible”! As if such declarations accomplished something, other than their contempt. Non bnai brit Goyim//Volk who reject the obligation of the revelation of the Torah\\virtually all non Jews throughout history//, often these Volk make such arrogant and totally absurd declarations. Comparable to a person who publicly laughs after making a loud stinky fart in a crowded elevator.

        The T’NaCH literature compares in a sense unto gravity. Gravity functions irregardless, whether Man believes in its existence yay or nay. Gravity defines physical reality for all living and\or inanimate matter. Irrespective whether before or after Newton attempted to express a mathematical theory which explained this scientific term modern man knows as “gravity”. The Gods, how much more so … they do not depend — much less require, belief by Man Yay or Nay. Yet all belief systems of avodah zarah\\perverted worship//, their creeds, theologies, doctrines, and dogma all absolutely require that Man believe in this or those God(s). All the while, those foreign alien perversions of faith deny and reject the revelation of the Written Torah @ Sinai and the double revelation of the Oral Torah logic system which interprets the Written Torah k’vanna @ Horev.

        Mussar, either bnai brit Israel accepts or ignores, but actions Yay or Nay have their consequences. Mussar, in this sense compares to philosophy. It validates the conflict between to opposing Yatzirot forces within the heart of Man. Something like Yin\Yang symbolism, expressed by ancient Chinese philosophy. Or the modern scientific law of thermodynamics: every action has its equal and opposite reaction.

        T’NaCH literature — it’s mussar commands the bnai brit people, who accepted the Written Torah @ Sinai and the Oral Torah logic format @ Horev — it, addresses the opposing Yatzirot within the human heart of Man. Perverting the T’NaCH into a history book about ancient Israel,,, as huge a distortion as the argument, ”the bible permits slavery”, made by slave owning Southern aristocrats – prior to the US Civil War.

        Such perverted arguments, they totally high-jack original intent. The Torah k’vanna/intent\ represented by & through commandments in general, and the sh’mita and Yovel commandments – specifically! The current year in the Jewish calendar — a sh’mita year! Non Jewish calendars make no more reference to the 7th year sh’mita than does the Gregorian calendar validate: the Asian calendar, the year of the tiger, ox, rat etc, which Chinese calendars both identify & shape the cultural identity and\or perspective – of all Asian societies.

        Xtianity stands upon a foundation of racial prejudice. This utterly vile European racial superiority complex express by Nazism in the 20th Century. This specific perversion, it defines the barbarism and extreme violence that expressed through all eras of European history.

        Notions of superior vs. inferior races,,, a perversion which so defines Nazis ideology,,, this gross perversion of Humanity, it did not just, out of the blue, pop into only German Nazis minds – only during the 20th Century. European culture stands upon absconding foreign cultures, and making them as their own. Something like General Chang, a Klingon patriot and romantic nationalist declared that Shakespeare – a born Klingon! Roman polytheism renamed the Greek pantheon of Gods, it – so to speak – baptized Greek mythology, as Roman theology.

        Comparable to Xtian priests who stole Jewish children and baptized them against their Will. Thereafter Church authorities denied the original heritage these abducted and baptized children. European courts early in the 20th Century validated Church crimes against Humanity. The biblical translations of the T’NaCH, likewise do the same with their old/new testament bible perversions. This latter disgrace defines the distorted nature of Xtianity to this very moment in time. The equivalent of attempts made by pornographic ‘Gay Pride parades’ to normalize the immorality of sexual hedonism.

        “NarrowPathMinistries@wordpress.com How to Respond to Scripture Rejectors”

        Parshat Yitro — within the annual Torah reading of the Torah. The most basic question, or First question applicable to all Torah and T’NaCH characters of Aggadic mussar (((Something like characters in the famous books of modern novels Sherlock Holmes, Nancy Drew, and Leo Tolstoy’s long novel: War & Peace: Prince Bolkonski Andrew, Mademoiselle Bourienne, Count Ilya Rostov etc. etc. etc.)))).

        What qualifies as the dominant Yatzir which stirs the hearts of all T’NaCH mussar characters to keep and obey Torah commandments and Prophetic mitzvot? The Yatzir Ha’Rah: understood as doing mitzvot לא לשמה; or the Yatzir Ha’Tov: understood as doing mitzvot לשמה. This most basic and fundamental question defines the Mitzva known as “Acceptance of the Yoke of Heaven; the mitzva of Kre’a Shma: Hear Israel HaShem our Judge HaShem is One.

        This one mitzvah defines the k’vanna of all תרי”ג Commandments (613 mitzvot). For example: When Sarah commanded Hagar, her slave, to serve as a surrogate\substitute mother/ to birth the children of Avraham … with which Yatzir did Hagar obey her mistress Sarah? Answer: Hagar, the mother of Ishmael, obeyed the commandment of Sarah לא לשמה: with her Yatzir Ha’Rah\Evil Inclination.

        Contrast Moshe, who obeyed the command by HaShem, for him to go down to Egypt and take Israel out of slavery. He obeyed this commandment לשמה, with his Yatzir Ha’Tov\Good Inclination. All T’NaCH mussar characters within this Jewish novel, whose plot in simplicity designates them as either righteous or wicked. All these T’NaCH mussar characters express and serve the simple story plot that separates Good from Evil; which bases itself upon this most simple distinction. The distinction which separates the heroes from the villains — in all the T’NaCH mussar stories whose characters depict the distinction between righteous vs. wicked.

        A fundamental error made by church authorities throughout history, they read their bibles based upon the assumption that these biblical characters physically existed as real historical personalities. The mussar question of substance, which equally applies across the board to all T’NaCH novel characters, fictional aggadic personalities: which Yatzir dominates the heart of bnai brit man when he strives to keep and do Torah prophetic commandments? This most basic question, church theology, doctrine, dogma and creeds never ever, not even once, asks.

        The T’NaCH as an ancient novel series of stories never makes any reference to Palestine. The modern parlance ‘Palestinian people’ – how much more so. Post WWI propaganda attempts to refer to historical people, first the Jews who lived within Mandate British Palestine, and later the Arabs who Yasser Arafat called Palestinians, as ‘historical’ peoples. The post WWI British empire labeled their Middle Eastern division of the spoils of Ottoman Greater Syria as — “Palestine”. That same territory renamed unto Israel, in 1948 by David Ben-Gurion — the first Prime Minister of the modern State of Israel. Not till late 1963, early ’64 did Yasser Arafat attempt to foist the name Palestine – as the name of his terrorist organization – which he dubbed, the Palestine Liberation Army.

        As stated above, during the entire post WWI period, the British & French imperialist carving up of Ottoman Greater Syria (the name which the Ottoman Empire labeled the lands of Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Jordan, and Iraq), wherein France took as its post WWI spoils of victory, the territories of Lebanon and Syria – of Ottoman Greater Syria; while England awarded itself, by means of the recently established League of Nations, the Greater Syrian territories of Israel, Jordan, and Iraq. — All this part of Ottoman Greater Syria, the League of Nations Ventriloquist Doll Dummy labeled as part of “the British Palestine Mandate”.

        Obviously the post WWI Arabs living in Ottoman Greater Syria would never refer to themselves by the name of European imperialism —- Palestine —- Because this “British Mandate”, based itself upon the Balfour Declaration, cut in 1917. In this famous treaty, Britain agreed to accept as an obligation to temporarily rule the League British mandate territories: to honor the terms and conditions to establish a Jewish Home in the Middle East.

        For Arabs share cropping populations, who lived within the pre-WWI Ottoman Turkish Greater Syria – Muslims NOT Arabs – (1) Only Ottoman Turks could own land within the Ottoman empire. (2) Arab share croppers, post WWI, would NEVER consent, much less willingly accept any British European reference: which attempted to describe Arabs as Palestinians”.

        The British Palestine, whereby the League of Nations based awarding Ottoman Greater Syria lands as victory spoils of war, unto the British — based strictly and solely upon terms established and specified within the Balfour Treaty; Arabs in the Middle East cannot even pronounce the letter P as in Balestine. All Arabs across the Middle East rejected the British Palestine Mandate established in 1920, which based itself upon the Balfour Declaration of 1917. But Britain won the Great War, and Arab objections which rejected European rule over former Ottoman lands, the Allies and the League of Nations totally ignored. How much more strenuously did all Arab countries and peoples actively reject the name of British Palestine after Britain returned the mandate back to the United Nations in 1947.

        Following the Declaration of Independence by the newly born nation of Israel in 1948, the British mandate name of Palestine ceased to exist. Attempts to convert novel fictional characters into historical persons or histories — utterly and totally absurd, war time propaganda. On par with the classic and most famous example of war time propaganda: the Roman inspired counterfeit religion that preaches — the historical man messiah — JeZeus son of Mary.

      3. The propaganda which floods the Main stream media press, it loves to foist the lie that stateless Arab refugees once ruled the mythical land of Palestine. Comparable to the French frogs of Paris who foist the lie that France defeated the Nazis in WWII. The EU and Jimmy Carter love the metaphor that Israel has imposed abaasskap Apartheid upon the Arabs, whose lands Israel illegally occupies. Why this charade? Follow the money. The Great Powers view a dominant Israel as a direct threat to their sphere of Influence in the Middle East and North Africa. Great Power propaganda condemns Israel as guilty of establishing bantustans ghettos whereby the Israelis exploit Arab refugee labor on par to how S. Africa racially classified its black Untermensch populations. As if Israel following the Shoah had replace Hitler! The gross stupidity of this vile comparison, it measures up with the Xtian belief that 40 days following the revelation of the Name of HaShem @ Sinai, that Israel worshiped a golden calf named אלהים, “who took them out of Egypt”.

        Tarek Fatah correctly points out that the original Palestine Mandate, which the recently post WWI established League of Nations “awarded” to Britain, likewise included the lands of Trans-Jordan. What he fails to mention, the original Palestine Mandate likewise included the land which comprises present day Iraq and Kuwait!

        Saddam justified the invasion of Kuwait based upon this fact – that Kuwait, originally part of the territory of Iraq … as Pakistan – originally part of India. Tarek Fatah claims that the Jews in 1948 confronted 10 Arab armies. Perhaps, but these Arabs “serfs”, the Great Powers dominated and ruled these non Independent Arab lands as the Ottoman empire fell into chaos and decay. By the 19th Century, the European powers referred to the Ottoman empire by the term of contempt: “The Sick Man of Europe”.

        The Ottoman empire in the 19th Century, its status as a world power compares to the 2nd tier status which England and France, Germany how much more so … following the Second World War. These Arab “countries” existed as subject populations on par with the Jews in British Palestine! Britain artificially created and established the borders of Jordan, Iraq, and Kuwait. British interests deprive Iraq of possessing a descent deep water port! It purposely unilaterally chopped of Kuwait from Iraq like it created Trans-Jordan.

        The Cheney\Bush illegal invasion of Iraq to restore Kuwait independence has everything to due with Great Power politics whereby the imperialist nations determine the borders of countries across the Middle East. Herein explains the interests of the Great Power “Two State Solution” in the name of Peace. Carving up the Jewish state and Capital City into two hostile states promises “Peace”, like declaring a Golden Calf took Israel out of Egypt. How come the Xtian church foists this complete and utter narishkeit for 2000+ years? Church interests center upon name of JeZeus. The Poop of Rome combined with the “opposing” Protestantism pastors, they have no interest to worship the Name of HaShem as revealed in the opening Commandment of Sinai. Xtianity, like Islam, and all Goyim religions – one and all worship other Gods.

      Tom blogs that his Gawd has a simple vision for all Humanity.

      [[[“””God’s desires for us are not hard to discern. He wants to bless us with salvation. The incredible gift of his Son is a powerful testimony to this truth. Yet salvation from sin and death is not something he wants to happen in our lives just once.”””]]].

      He confuses the 5:2 reference with the birth place of David with that of the Roman\Greek counterfeit, wherein the Roman characters in the new testament fiction, mockingly declares this fictional man as ‘king of the Jews’. Such revisionist history\church propaganda/ Xtian preachers continually has vomited for 2000+ years. As if prophets could miraculously see some 700 years into the future, and their predictions merited a close watch with great anticipation and anxiety. This טפש פשט narishkeit rubbish merits not short of loathing and absolute comtempt.

      What a lot of hoey apothecary. And yet Xtian Apologetics applauds this LSD trip theology throughout its long history of murder and bloodshed. People quickly found themselves, and their wives and children and neighbors violently murdered if they challenged the Church Party line & religious propaganda, preached continuously to ignorant lords, serfs and slaves – to keep them “Saved” while enslaved unto church dogma. Tom, just another preacher of the reactionary Church Party line. He totally ignores the savage brutal barbaric history of Xtian church dominated Europe during the Dark and Middle Ages. His preach totally indifferent to the rebellion by both serf and slave common Man, which expelled the church from its perch of domination following the American and French revolutions.

      Xtian revisionist historians love the ‘history’ of their bibles … just as long as it ignores church oppression and injustice throughout the entirety of its intractable monolithic domination over barbaric European societies and\or civilizations. The slaughter of the 30 Years War, fought primarily within the Holy Roman Empire (1618 – 1648), its death count compares to that produced by World War I. Wars of religion have deformed and distorted the European soul, worse than did the cruel lash torture Quasimodo, in Victor Hugo’s novel: The Hunchback of Notre-Dame.

      The Peace of Westphalia ended the the Thirty Years’ War and Eighty Years’ War, it brought “peace” to the Holy Roman Empire, closing a calamitous period of European history that killed approximately eight million people. Martin Luther and John Calvin considered the Rome corrupt due to the self serving dogma which promoted indulgences. Deep ideas of prophetic mussar never once crossed the violent prone unhinged minds of any Xtian leader, especially during times of social turmoil, anarchy, & chaos. That same year, 1648, exploded the Cossack pogroms which obliterated Jewish communities across the Ukraine and Poland. The horrors of these pogroms easily matched, they even surpassed the racial slaughter which the German mobs: both serfs & aristocrat war criminals alike, committed during the first Crusades.

      The problem with church propaganda preaching their lovy-dovy JeZeus narishkeit unto ignorant aristocrats, noblemen, and serfs; this preachy preach accomplishes nothing when the minds of barbarian non brit Goyim experience and enter into their emotion crazed “rut”. The males march off and murder all in their path, comparable to a plague of locust which destroys everything that sprouts from the earth.

      Never does any Xtian theologian ever ask, what causes mass insanity to repeatedly rape the primitive minds of European Xtians. Why does belief in JeZeus always collapse and fail during times of social turmoil or war? At the critical juncture, why no Xtian leader has ever stood and given heart to primitive European Xtians. Stood and Commanded them to stand fast in their faith, reject committing war crimes atrocities … and the flock obeys and listens to their “shepherd”?! When President Bush permitted the torture of capture, even illegally abducted prisoners, not a single Priest or Pastor condemned this war crime against humanity. Never in the 2000+ years, where the Church bore the responsibility to morally guide the faithful, has ever such a righteous leader ever arisen among the European peoples. Muhammad Ali, the greatest world Heavy Weight champion, he denounced the illegal Vietnam War. Martin Luther King Jr, together with Malcolm X, they rose up and denounced American Apartheid against black people. Where was JeZeus when Mehmed VI, Stalin and Hitler committed mass genocide in Europe?

      Always, and only after war crimes guilt, does the church regret and abhor that senseless bloodshed. But never has any Xtian church ever tried and convicted any European church leader for his failure to give moral leadership and guidance when strikes the Torah curse: “the plague of locusts”, ‘(משל\\נמשל)’ converts Xtian minds into blood eating vampires and werewolves. The church always fails; due to the craven cowardice of church religious leaders. Their complete lack the courage to take responsibility for the actions taken by the Xtian people, who compose and organize Xtian society across Europe and Russia.

      Shall now study the sugiot which contain the cherry picked p’sukim of Tom’s preachy preach. As a rule, when learning minor prophets, due to the brevity of these books, the search for close precedents, comparative sugiot, comes from Major prophet books. Shall attempt to learn Tom’s prized p’sukim by duplicating the style of difficulty\answer by which the Gemarah learns every Case\Rule common law Mishna. The Mishna, written much later, long after Ezra and the Men of the Great Assembly sealed the T’NaCH literature as a closed Canon\masoret/tradition – the eternal inheritance of all generations of bnai brit Israel. Encourage the reader to question the precedent compared to מיכהו:א-ח.

      This sugia contains the p’sukim of choice which Tom so adores. Propaganda rhetoric narishkeit always, as a rule, takes p’sukim totally out of their surrounding sugia contexts. This classic error defines all new testament theology. This most basic and fundamental perversion, by itself alone makes treif\unkosher/the new testament abomination.

      The sugia comparison מלכים א ו:יא – ז:נ, the response to Tom’s blog. Industry stands upon measurement tolerances. The Hebrew term “middot” means “measurements”. Might trust a hardware store yardstick to measure and cut a fence post, but not to check a precision aerospace or medical component. The 1950 US military standard Gage Inspection established measurement tolerances to a 10:1 Gagemakers rule. “The accuracy tolerances of the measuring equipment should not exceed 10 percent of the tolerances of the parts being checked”.

      Righteous morality requires “tohor middot” which fit within the tolerances of righteous justice among and between bnai brit. All moral tolerances which fall outside of these defined middot tolerances constitute as “tumah middot”. How to measure and discern between tohor and tumah middot requires great precision. Employing abstract, undefined terms of moral rhetoric, for example: love, faith, and hope, these empty comfort words, they fail to instruct the required mussar whereby to educate Man to live a moral righteous and just life – especially during times of social anarchy and chaos.

      In manufacture, measuring equipment must meet certain accuracy specifications. The more precision accuracy required, the more expensive to manufacture the product. T’NaCH prophetic mussar education follows along these exact lines. רוח הקודש defines the middot which express the k’vanna of the revelation of the Name of HaShem, revealed in the opening commandment of the Torah at Sinai. As industry has its Calipers And Micrometers, these instruments, in their turn require a standard by which to check their accuracy. T’NaCH prophets, they define רוח הקודש middot. The discipline of learning a Prophetic sugia by comparing it to sugiot with the identical or close to identical middot, herein defines T’NaCH tolerances of tohor middot.

      The comparison which Torah scholars make to check and define tohor middot tolerances, herein defines the scholarship of all Talmudic Aggadic sources. Aggadic sources within the Talmud, they make a דרוש, they search for and compare NaCH tohor middot, designated as רוח הקודש. When a חכם stands and dedicates through the mitzva of t’shuvah tohor middot unto HaShem, this k’vannah within the heart of the חכם lives when that man applies the designated tohor middot learned from prophetic mussar commandments as the t’shuvah dedication of his Yatzir Ha’Tov within his heart. When this same man lives and expresses those defined tohor middot\tolerances, they shape his social behavior with and among his own bnai brit people.

      The distinction between the t’shuvah for tumah middot vs. tohor middot distinguishes the opposing k’vannot within the evening Shemone Esrai tefillah, stand opposed to the morning Shemone Esrai tefillah. At the revelation of the Written Torah at Sinai Israel feared the curse of death. At the revelation of the Oral Torah רוח הקודש tohor middot, which stand as מלך\king – they define the Name of HaShem within precise tohor tolerances לשמה. Therefore the evening kre’a shma, bnai brit man remembers accepting the revelation of the Written Torah death curse, he dedicates his t’shuvah for social behavior promoted by his Yatzir Ha’Rah; whereas the morning kre’a shma bnai brit man remembers accepting the revelation of the Oral Torah רוח הקודש middot\tolerances of doing and keeping the mitzvot לשמה — the blessings of the Torah — the dedicated t’shuvah made by the Yatzir Ha’Tov; which radically change how this man associates with his own people in social circumstances — especially so, during times of anarchy or social chaos.

      The Church denies the revelation of both the Written and Oral Torah? When anarchy and chaos witness the collapse & fall of the church moral authority to guide and direct righteous behaviors, no Xtian priest or pastor possesses the רוח הקודש to lead and inspire his flock to reject the tumah middot of Cain – not murder again and again and again his brother Abel. The mussar משל\נמשל instruction of the measurements of the Beit Hamikdash, requires חכמים to make the required דיוק נמשל whereby They learn the mussar commanded, for example, by this prophetic book within the NaCH. Aggaditah learns prophetic mussar as the פשט of the tales and stories communicated by the Aggaditah within the Shas Talmud. Aggaditah does not learn the T’NaCH Primary Sources as if they portray physical events, which actually occurred within the history of Israel as a kingdom. Such an empty and worthless moot point, it totally perverts the purpose and intent of all Prophetic mussar.

      The new testament counterfeit, exposed as false precisely on this score, for it views the stories and character personalities within the pages of the T’NaCH as actual historical figures. It limits thereby, the reality of the Gods to 3 physical dimensions, on par with Euclid’s 5th axiom of plane geometry; on par with the scientific method, which limits reality to empirical evidence. T’NaCH prophets command mussar. They do not teach, nor concern themselves with the moot point – the physical history of an ancient people who lived in the past a long long long time ago. Observance of mitzvot commandments applies only to the living, not to the dead. For this reason Jews who wear tzitzits and visit a cemetery, they tuck their tzitzits into their pockets so as not to shame the dead.

      Shlomo spent far greater energy on building his house and Court over building the Beit Hamikdash; the NaCH does not validate that this king, (King David serves as the “gold standard” by which all other kings compare.), dedicated any energy or efforts to established the small Sanhedrin courts of the 6 Cities of Refuge. King Shlomo made no designated place for the Great Sanhedrin Courts within the Beit Hamikdash. In his lifetime he permitted, even encouraged Israel to worship other Gods. Gods who did not bow and accept the revelation of the Written and Oral Torah at Sinai and Horev! Gods whom the Xtians and Muslims worship and adore.

  3. It’s my birthday. As a present, would like to introduce how my Rav taught me how to learn the T’NaCH combined with the Talmud.

    Isaiah speaks almost like poety. The Books of Tehillem\psalms likewise for the same reason – very difficult to read in the original Hebrew. However, my rav had me read 18 chapters of T’NaCH every day, finished it every 51 days. The Torah, its broken down due to the Shabbot Readings, each Parsha has 7 aliyot (people called up to read from the Torah on Shabbot), each day would read all the first, or second, or third etc., aliyot respectively within the whole of the Torah. Hence would completely read the Torah every 49 days.

    In this manner I learned Hebrew. Then Rav Aaron directed me apply this same technique to the Aramaic targum (translations). Within a year could read the T’NaCH & the Aramaic like as if it existed on par with English news papers. The precise goal which Rav Nemuraskii set for me to achieve. Rav Nemuraskii, only thereafter formally introduced me to the Midrashim. During my cycle of reading T’NaCH, learned together with Rav Nemuraskii, together with other talmidim, hilchot shabbot from the Misnah Bruer (a 20th Century commentary on the Shulkan Aruch … a commentary on the Arbah Turim). The author of the Tur, the son of the Rosh. The Rosh one of the greatest Talmudic scholars in all of Western European g’lut\exile.

    The first time Rav Nemuraskii and myself sat and learned the Talmud Bavli (a 20 volume code), we completed it in about 4 months. Cycling through the Sha’s (Six orders to the Mishna) Bavli (Babylonian Talmud), would learn approximately 20 pages every day. The Bavli, its based upon common law. Common law learns by way of precedents. Therefore by cycling through the Sha’s Bavli, completed the reading cycle, as said above, in about 4 months. In this fashion, fairly quickly familiarized myself with the Cases contained in the whole of the Sha’s Bavli. Cycling through the Sha’s, after about 4 to 5 years of this, only then did thereafter did Rav Nemuraskii demand that i learn each page of Gemarah (the commentary to the Mishna) by bringing precedents, duplicating the style of how the Gemarah learns the Mishna.

    At that time started exploring how the classic Reshonim (950 – 1450 CE) learned Gemarah. The Baali Tosafot (about 60 scholars in total, the grand children of Rashi), the French school of Talmudic scholarship, they learned by way of comparing outside precedents. When the Tosafot went off the dof\page of Gemarah/immediately familiar with the precedent that the Tosafot commentary introduced, to compare this outside halachah case to that of current dof of Gemarah which Rav Nemuraskii and myself learned. Needless to say, of all the Reshonim scholars, the Baali Tosafot hands down my favorite.

    Then came the B’hag, Rif, Rosh halachic commentaries. If a person understands that the Bavli exists as a common law legal system, then and only then do these halachic commentaries reveal their absolute genius. Common law compares legal Case rulings/halachot to a specific Case\Rule Mishna — something like a mamma bird chased after and followed by her chicks. The Talmud employs a Difficulty\Answer style throughout the Sha’s Bavli. It does not decide which of the “tens” of outside precedents by which it compares halachot to a specific case rule Mishna. The halachic codes made by the B’hag, Rif, & Rosh halachic commentaries – these Great poskim\deciders/, by their authority they reduced from multiple 10s to single digits the compared halachot woven into the context of the Case\Rule Mishnah. Their codes of law decided the chosen precedents which Torah observant Jewry should attempt to self-actualize in their daily lives.

    But by reducing the Gemarah precedents, they made it much easier to understand how the Gemarah logically compares outside halachic cases to any given specific Case\Rule Mishna. To learn these classic codes require comparing the halachic rulings which the Codes decide to the language of the Mishna; to thereby make a depth analysis of the language of the specific Case\Rule Mishna. That’s why these code always include the specified Mishna to the designated halachot, drastically reduced in number, and removal of all difficulty\answer debates. The Great codes, their scholarship compares something like an editor cuts and pastes & reduces news copy. Its the discipline of comparing halachic rulings to a specific Case\Rule Mishna which permits scholars to more easily discern the depth parameters which the language of that specific Case\Rule Mishna communicates. These Great halachic codifications permitted, so to speak, a student to more easily ‘see the forest through the trees’.

    However just as a garment woven on a loom has a warp\weft opposing threads, even though these tremendous tohor halachic codes did not bring any Aggaditah, students properly instructed understand Aggaditah, its relationship with the T’NaCH, as the most essential requirement whereby to understand the Case\Rule Mishna. Aggaditah learns T’NaCH prophetic mussar, it most essentially defines the “substance” of k’vanna, the tohor spirits of middot, which the Aggadic stories within the Sha’s {breath} into the Halachic”forms” of ritualized Jewish halachic law.

    Aggaditah makes comparisons to the sugiot\sub chapters/ of the T’NaCH, like what the sages of the Gemarah brings outside halachot, wherein the Amoraim scholars made legal comparisons to the Case\Rule Mishna. Consequently the Talmud, in my limited experience, by far the most complex text ever penned. The warp\woof relationship in the Talmud … the Aggadic\Halachic threads which make up the Sha’s Bavli and Sha’s Yerushalmi, they weave T’NaCH and Talmud into a unified fabric of faith.

    Then struck the defining disaster experienced by g’lut Jewry across Europe and the Middle East. The Rambam published his halachic code of Jewish law. Thereafter g’lut Jewry confused the priority rule of logic over law. This most basic priority rule, the B’hag, Rif, Rosh codes emphatically obeyed. Alas the Rambam halachic code, like a whore in church, it cast this most emphatic priority ie logic primary, and law secondary … that tumah code, it cast this absolute, most essential priority, unto the dumpster. Jews, almost overnight, lost the wisdom, how to correctly learn the Talmud.

    This terrible disaster, publication of the Rambam halachic code, which prioritized halachic law as supreme, it prioritized\supplanted/substituted\ assimilated Greek Aristotelian logic over Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס explanation of the Oral Torah logic format – first revealed to Moshe the prophet at Horev on Yom Kippur!

    A huge Civil War erupted, all the Gemarahs of France burned; Jewish exile communities in Britain, France, across the Germanic kingdoms, Spain, Portugal — basically all Western European Jewry — expelled from those countries. This Civil War terminated the period of Reshon scholarship upon the T’NaCH and Talmud. The Goyim, especially in the Germanic kingdoms imposed crushing taxation without representation upon Jewish refugee populations. After these feudal lords sponged virtually all Jewish wealth – these now totally destitute refugee populations – the German kingdoms expelled those despised Jewish paupers – from off their lands.

    The Church jumped upon the nigger pile, Rome decreed that any Jewish refugee living in Western Europe, that these despised Christ killers must consent to live within locked Ghetto prison walls. These illegal and unjust decrees, did not collapse till American revolutionaries told king George where he could put his taxation without representation, and Napoleon conquered those despicable Western European countries. Napoleon freed imprisoned Jewry from the 300 year wicked, unjust, and utterly insane unilateral imprisonment of Jewish refugees; never permitted to stand trial; nor permitted to challenge the evil slander made by their accusers. Why do English cars drive on the other side of the road? Alas, Napoleon did not conquer Britain like he did Western Europe.

    Faced with the choice of Ghetto imprisonment without a trial or fleeing to Eastern European countries like Poland and the Ukraine, millions of Jewish stateless refugees fled unto Eastern Europe. The ירידות הדורות curse, expressed itself thereafter, through the many and famous commentaries made upon the Shulchan Aruch; Yidden in the Pale of Russia had lost their ability, our wisdom, to correctly learn the Talmud. The Czars of Russia, even attempted to replace the Talmud with the Rambam code, as the basis for the education of Jewish youth. Then came the two European Civil Wars in the 20th Century, and those Europeans revealed the true worth of 2000+ years of Church morality.
