Revelation chapter 18 >
Note on this poetic reflection:
When I began to write my notes on Revelation 18 I took pause. I saw that the present moment in history marks the actual opening of the door to the events described in this chapter. Therefore, I would like you to read this post first before I go on to write all that I am going to say on Revelation chapter 18.
I would like you to read the following poetic reflection. It is specifically a reflection on Moshe's prayer for Israel after the sin of the ten spies and the demonic uproar that subsequently took place in Israel, wherein the lives of Joshua and Caleb were even being threatened, perhaps even the lives of Moshe and Aaron, in a prophetic hint toward the time of the Two Witnesses in Jerusalem.
It is also a poetic reflection on the current state of affairs where a second election will take place in Israel today, that is, it will take place soon after the time of this writing. It is over the issue of mandatory service of Torah students in the IDF.
This has the significance of challenging the testimony to the word of Hashem that the members of the tribe of Levi should not be counted in the census for those who would be registered for military service, because they were the witnesses to the power of Hashem to save and redeem Israel by the power of His word alone. The spirit of this issue goes to the heart of the testimony of Israel, the testimony to the truth of Hashem for which G-d created Israel, calling out Avraham and setting Avraham and Sarah aside from the headship of Adam to the headship of Mashiach.
Reflections on Moshe's Wilderness Prayer
How will the nations be blessed
if Israel is replaced?
The State of Israel is in the wilderness.
It is time for Judah and Joseph
to be immersed in the Jordan River
and still cross over on dry ground.
It is time to bomb the walls
of the last Jericho,
not with bombs of atomic might,
not with bombs of atomic might,
but with cries of faith filled
with the joy of an all powerful living hope!
It is time to declare
that only in the God of Israel
is there justice and mercy!
Those who are destroying the earth
will be destroyed,
and in the Land of Israel
the Temple of Israel’s God
will stand.
Jerusalem will be built with prayer.
Jerusalem will be built with prayer.
It is time to allow ten children
from all the families of the earth
to take hold of the tzitzit
of each Baal Tshuvah
and go to settle with humility
