Confusing times, isn’t it folks? Every blogger and their donkey is putting up stuff claiming to know who Moshiach is. (I’m also in that category, with the stuff I’m posting up here from Rav Elmaliach – with the difference that he’s actually one of the hidden tzaddikim, getting stuff straight from the Tzaddik HaEmet she be dor, Rav […]
This is my translation of R Elmaliach’s shiur, based on a megillah he recieved from the Rav, written down by the tikshor method, shortly before this last Shvi’i shel Pesach. The stuff in square brackets is R Elmaliach’s own comments. I have bolded the Rav’s words, to make it easier to tell what is actually […]
I’ve had this prayer for a while, but forgot about it. This morning, it ‘fell out’ of my siddur, exactly on time. This is my translation of it, the original Hebrew is underneath. == Ribbonu Shel Olam, Who can do anything. Please do miracles and wonders with me, like You did with Eliyahu HaNavi and Ovadiah […]
The ‘chametz’ stickers just came off the kitchen cupboards. The Pesach plates and cookware got washed and put back in their boxes, then back in their cupboard upstairs. The plastic table cloths were removed. We are back to ‘normal’. Whatever that is, these days. I was waiting for the ‘sea to split’ today. If that […]
The story begins back with the post I stuck up a couple of weeks ago about the BEILIS BLOOD LIBEL, where I was trying to unpack some of the Rav’s comments about it. You can go back and read that post HERE. To make the very long story short, a young Russian boy was found […]
This is the paraphrased remarks from the first part of Rav Elmaliach’s class HERE on Youtube, that contains a message from the Rav shortly before Pesach 5784. (If you still think Bibi is MBY and Pollard is MBD, please skip this. You’ll only upset both of us.) For ease of reading, I am going to […]
I woke up today feeling pretty ‘down’. I’m not really sure why. We went out for supper yesterday, and while there were a few people around and it wasn’t a ghost-town, it definitely wasn’t the ‘bustle’ you usually get in Jerusalem three days before Seder night. There was a kind of depressed, apathetic, despondent dust […]
Even before the Rav kept mentioning the ‘Anglo-Palestine Bank’s role in funding the z-ist takeover of Eretz Yisrael during WW1, I’d been trying to pin down more of the money trail leading to the Holy Land. Increasingly, it seems to me that all the ‘idealogical wars’ being fought by our dear leaders (ahem….) actually just […]
Paraphrased comments from R Almaliach’s shiur from Sunday morning (I wanted to link to the video for this, but now I can’t seem to find it on his Youtube page… My husband downloaded the audio of it on a stick. I am trying to upload that to the blog, but it’s also now not working….) […]
Well, I just got the cable back for the internet. After 10 minutes of shufty-ing around the web – I understand again, 10000%, that I am missing totally nothing when I’m offline. Basically, I missed a whole bunch of hot air, ‘talking heads’ rehashing stuff over and over again from the last 30 years; more […]
