Tell your wife Hizki Uvirchi.
I'm...Dixie Yid,<br /><br />Tell your wife Hizki Uvirchi.<br /><br />I'm curious about the midrash you mentioned that homes will also be brought to E"Y. Can you cite the source for this? I'm unaware of it. Thanks.<br /><br />Devash,<br /><br />I hear you. I can understand your claim that such a story discourages Aliya since why make Aliya w/ all that entails when it will all be taken care of? However, even if it's unrealistic, it's inspiring nonetheless. If it brings people to have more Mashiah awareness, Dayeinu.<br /><br />Rabbi Gewirtz,<br /><br />A few months ago, I searched the Internet for that old Olomeinu story (that I read as a kid) without success. Do you know the title of the story and/or if it's available on the Internet? Thanks.yaakhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08179304707239865515noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2606399196932045640.post-17963021656101875852014-07-10T08:52:24.336-04:002014-07-10T08:52:24.336-04:00It's amazing.

True, I do not live in Eretz Yisrael yet, but I see Dvash's point of view.<br /><br />To that, I'd like to respond. As far as the suffering, I don't know whether you mean the Ikvisa D'Mshicha, the tumultuous end-times which we seem to be living through, or the appreciation of Israel, which is also considered a challenge.<br /><br />To the second point, I suggest that when Moshiach comes, that challenge will be removed. Indeed, the Chasam Sofer said that even babies in their cribs will know when Moshiach is here and I think the challenges and obstacles will be removed.<br /><br />Moving backwards, to the end times, we know that HaShem says, "B'ito Achishena," in its time I will hurry [the geulah.]<br /><br />If everything happens simply because it is the time for Moshiach according to G-d's cosmic timetable, then yes, there will be travail. However, if we do enough to have G-d hurry it up, even a few moments before that time frame, we can avoid much catastrophe. (A word linked to Mazel, which we can overcome, by the way (Shabbos 153).)<br /><br />This story (reminiscent of the old Olomeinu story) may not be the peaceful story that we will see, but if it brings people through imagination to a place where they WANT Moshiach, then it may very well become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

The story was actually written before the...Devash,<br /><br />The story was actually written before the current rocket and war events. In terms of your point about the story not addressing what's going on and making it appear as if the people come from chutz la'aretz and everything is just fine, I can sort of see why you got that idea. I clarified my opening paragraph to make that clear. But part of the normalcy in Eretz Yisroel is that this is a *story* imagining what it will be like when Moshiach comes in the way of "achishena." And yes, Eretz Yisroel is acquired with yisurim, but perhaps you failed to note that the story takes place after the redemption. Go with it for a moment.<br /><br />According to Megilla 29a, shuls and batei midrash will be transported to Yerushalayim when Moshiach comes. I understand that there is a similar midrash with respect to homes. The deeper point in this teaching is probably that physical objects and possessions which were used l'shem Shomayim are ultimately redeemed as spiritual wheat and not discarded like physical chaff. But my wife's story goes with the plain meaning of Chazal. It goes to the point of the story, which is to counteracting the tendency to give up hope and to help us who are so weary of the tribulations of this long galus, which are only more pronounced now, try to continuing hoping and praying for the sorely-needed geulah.<br /><br />It also appears that you didn't read the story till the end before commenting.<br /><br />All the best and if you live in Eretz Yisroel, may you and everyone there stay safe and healthy and may Hashem send complete victory to the IDF without a single additional Jew being hurt!DixieYid (يهودي جنوبي)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03713423988723533390noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2606399196932045640.post-56242059424806246072014-07-10T07:22:37.901-04:002014-07-10T07:22:37.901-04:00I don't normally read this blog.

Your brothers and sisters in Eretz Yisrael are suffering severely so there will be a "chayelet" to greet you at Ben Gurion Airport when you finally decide to join us here. And you portray Diaspora Jews as living a nice normal life right up to the moment of the geulah and they don't even have to give up their "things." <br /><br />According to this you get to have this world and the next one, too. No fuss, no worries. All, that is, except the soup! <br /><br />I fear it's a very unrealistic view of what's headed your way. According to our sources, Eretz Yisrael is only acquired through suffering. I sincerely hope you and your family are up to the challenge which surely awaits you.Devorah Chayahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03625277197970920616noreply@blogger.com
