When you think about it, it is astounding how many voices are out there in the media shouting to be heard - newscasts, podcasts, op-eds, endless analyses by "experts" presenting their views on where we are and where we are headed. It's all just so much noise!!
I think that's why HKB"H gave us the prophecies which have been handed down to us over the centuries and millenia. This is what will keep us on track and anchored rather than blown around by the winds of confusion created by all this noise.
For now, all we need to know is that our ancient Jewish sources tell us that when Arabia consults with Edom and they face off with Paras, there is no need to fear. Paras will fall to Edom and we should understand from HKB"H Himself that this is the sign of our imminent redemption.
For this moment in time, this is all we need to know.
will be redeemed." ~ (Rosh Hashanah 11a)
Agreed. But doesn't this same segment from Yalkut Shimoni say that Paras will destroy the world? Sure, negative prophesy does not have to come to fruition. I guess maybe I am being a pessimist because of our current spiritual state. You did mention the various ways Paras is already destroying the world.
ReplyDeleteI pray that you are right, and that I have got it wrong, or have misunderstood something.
Their moves will destroy the OLD world and make way for the World of Mashiach.

ReplyDeleteThe word is machriv - destroy or collapse. It seems more like collapse tbh - agree with Devorah.
