"מוכנים למסירות נפש!" ⚡ משא החירום שהרעיד את ישיבת חברון | מנהיג הדור הגרמ"ה הירש

 

"בחורים מפחדים ללכת ברחוב!"🚨המשא המטלטל וההוראות למעשה של מנהיג הדור הגרמ"ה הירש: הקץ לתקציבים



נאום היסטורי שירעיד כל לב יהודי! מתוך עין הסערה, בצל גל מעצרי בני הישיבות והגזירות הכלכליות הקשות ביותר שידע עולם התורה, התייצב מנהיג הדור מרן ראש הישיבה הגרמ"ה הירש שליט"א, למשא חירום מטלטל. בפני מאות ראשי ישיבות שהתכנסו באולם 'כתר הרימון' בבני ברק, לרגל פתיחת שנתה השלישית של "קרן עולם התורה", תיאר מנהיג הדור רבי משה הלל הירש בכאב את הרדיפה: "יושבים וחושבים מה יכולים לעשות יותר רע... פיזית זה מצב של פחד!". מרן ראש הישיבה קבע כי תמו ימי ההסתמכות רק על עשירים, ופסק כי כעת "כל יהודי ויהודי חייב להיות שותף", והגדיר סכום מינימלי לכל נפש להחזקת הקרן. בסיום דבריו, פנה מנהיג הדור באנגלית ליהדות התפוצות, והזהיר כי קיומה של מדינת ישראל תלוי אך ורק בזכות התורה שלומדים בארץ. "עולם התורה כולו יעמוד ויכריז: לא ולא! נמשיך ללמוד תורה". נאום חובה שייחקק לדורות! A historic and chilling address that will shake the Jewish world! Amidst the severe decrees, budget cuts, and arrests of Yeshiva students, the leader of the generation, Maran Rosh Yeshiva Rabbi Moshe Hillel Hirsch shlita, delivered an unprecedented emergency speech to hundreds of Roshei Yeshiva in Bnei Brak, launching the 3rd year of "Keren Olam HaTorah
."

Rav Hirsch painfully described the current situation in Israel: "Yeshiva students are physically afraid to walk in the streets." He declared that the survival of the Torah world now depends on every single Jew worldwide contributing, not just the wealthy. In a special message delivered in English, the Gadol HaDor warned that the very existence of the State of Israel relies solely on the Torah studied within it, concluding with a powerful declaration of defiance: "The Torah world will declare: No! We will continue to learn!" 📢 * "אנחנו בשליחות להפיץ את אורם של גדולי הדור לכל יהודי בעולם! 🌍 בקרוב נעלה תיעוד היסטורי גנוז ומצמרר שמעולם לא פורסם! לחצו כאן עכשיו, הירשמו לערוץ והיו שותפים לקידוש השם העצום הזה כדי לא לפספס: 🔔    / @gedoleihador   איזה משפט מתוך דבריו של ראש הישיבה הכי חיזק אתכם במצב הנוכחי? כתבו לנו בתגובות! 👇" יש לכם תיעוד או הצעה לסרטון?* שלחו למייל gdoleyhador@gmail.com

ט"ו סיון התשפ"ו

Yehuda ben Yaakov Ovinu zt"l


Sivan 15, 2314 / -1447


Born: Aram Naharayim, Iraq,, 1565 BCE
Died: Egypt, 1446 BCE

The following is from -  https://dailyzohar.com/tzadikim


Yehudah was the son of Yaakov (Jacob) the Patriarch and Leah the Matriarch. He is the founder of the Tribe of Yehudah.

He was born on the fifteenth of Nissan, and he died at the age of 119 (Yalkut Shimoni, Shemot 162).

"Yehudah, your brothers will acknowledge you (Genesis 49:8). All your brothers will be called by your name, Jew" (Bereisheet Rabbah 98:6).

Yehudah was not ashamed to confess in the episode of Tamar. What was his reward? He inherited life in the World to Come (Sotah 7b).

Who caused Reuven to confess in the episode of Bilhah? Yehudah who set an example (ibid.).

Anyone who blesses Yehudah for convincing the brothers to sell Yosef into slavery rather than slay him is a blasphemer. Of this it is written, He who blesses the profit-seeker blasphemes God (Psalms 10:3). The profit-seeker is Yehudah, who said, "What gain will there be if we kill our brother?" (Genesis 37:26) (Sanhedrin 6b).

Because Yehudah has imposed a ban upon himself by saying, "If I do not bring Benjamin back to you, then I will have sinned against you for all time" (Genesis 43:9), throughout the years that Israel was in the desert, Yehudah's bones rolled about in their coffin until Moshe came and prayed for mercy, in effect, absolving him of the ban, whereupon his limbs reassembled. But he was not admitted to the heavenly Yeshivah until Moshe prayed, "Bring him to his people" (Deut. 33:7). Once in the heavenly Yeshivah, Yehudah did not know how to discuss Halachah with the Sages until Moshe prayed, "His hands shall contend for him" (ibid.). Still, Yehudah's halachic (law) decisions were not legally correct, so Moshe prayed, "You shall be a help against his adversaries" (ibid.) (Sotah 7b).

Yehudah was buried in the city of Binyamin opposite Bethlechem, 
(Sefer HaYashar, end of Yehoshua).

"King and Warrior"

On three occasions Judah spoke before his brothers, and they made him king over themselves (Bereisheet Rabbah 84:17).

Yehudah merited rulership over Israel (Sotah 37a).

Why did Yehudah merit kingship? Because he confessed in the episode of Tamar or, according to another opinion, because he saved his brother Yosef from death, as it is written, "What gain will there be if we kill our brother?" (Tosefta Berachot 4:16).

Why did the Holy One, Blessed is He, see fit to give the kingship to Yehudah of all the brothers? The letters of His Name are inscribed in Yehudah's name, and the Holy One, Blessed is He, honors His Name. The letter daled of Yehudah, which is not in His Name, stands for King David, who bound himself to His Name more than all the people of the world. Thus it is written, They shall seek Hashem their God and David their king (Hoshea 3:5) (Zohar 1:89b).

Yaakov taught his sons not to seek higher rank. By fulfilling his father's teaching, Yehudah merited kingship (ibid. 2:258b).

Reuven ruled over Israel in Egypt. When Reuven died, rulership was given to Shimon, when Shimon died, it was given to Levi. When Levi died, they sought to give rulership to Yehudah, but a Heavenly Voice rang out and said, "Let him be until his time comes." Then, in the days of the Judges, Hashem said, "Yehudah shall go up" (Judges 1:2) (Bamidbar Rabbah 13:8).

"A lion cub is Yehudah" (Genesis 49:9). This teaches that he was given the might of the lion and the audacity of its cubs (Bereisheet Rabbah 98:7).

They, the Romans, received a tradition from their fathers that Yehudah slew Esav (Esau) (Yerushalmi Gittin 5:7).

When the Patriarch Yitzchak (Isaac) died, Esav, Yaakov, and all the Tribes went to bury him. Yaakov and his sons sat down and began to weep in the Cave of Machpelah, but out of respect for Yaakov, the Tribes left the cave so that they would not see their father weeping. Then Esav slipped into the cave, for he thought, "Now that my father has died, I will slay Yaakov." When Yehudah saw that Esav had gone in after Yaakov, he thought, "Now Esav will slay Father!" He entered the cave just as Esav was about to kill Yaakov and slew Esav from behind. Why did he not slay him from the front? Because Esav's face resembled that of Yaakov. Therefore, his father Yaakov blessed him, "Your hand is at your enemies' nape" (Genesis 49:8) (Shocher Tov 18:32).


May the merit of the tzaddik Yehudah ben Yaakov Avinu   protect us all, Amen.


Rabbi Avigdor Miller zt”l on Traveling Through Life [Parshas Ba’haaloskha]

Part I. Traveling Through the Wilderness

Traveling Through the Desert

In this week’s sedrah, Moshe Rabbeinu is speaking to his father-in-law, Chovov ben Reuel HaMidyani, who had come to visit him in the Midbar, and he tells him as follows: נֹסְעִים אֲנַחְנוּ אֶל הַמָּקוֹם אֲשֶׁר אָמַר השם – We are traveling toward that place that Hashem said about it, אֹתוֹ אֶתֵּן לָכֶם – “This place I will give to you” (Bamidbar 10:29).

The Bnei Yisroel were traveling through the Midbar heading toward Eretz Yisroel, and Moshe was now offering his father-in-law an opportunity: לְכָה אִתָּנוּ – Come with us, וְהֵטַבְנוּ לָךְ – and we shall do good to you, כִּי הדִּבֶּר טוֹב עַל יִשְׂרָאֵל – for Hashem has spoken good for Yisroel (ibid.). It means, Hashem has foretold good for Yisroel, and if you join us, you’ll be joined to us also in receiving that good; we’ll go into the eretz tovah u’rechavah and you’ll be there with us.

Traveling Through History

Now, pay attention, because everything in the Torah is not just the story for itself; it’s also a model for the future.

Moshe Rabbeinu is speaking to us, and he’s saying, “We, the Jewish people, are traveling through the history of the world. Throughout all the generations, נֹסְעִים אֲנַחְנוּ, we are journeying. We’ll be in the Midbar for forty years, and then we’ll be in Eretz Canaan. We’ll go to Bavel and to North Africa. We’ll go to Europe and Russia. Then we’ll go to the Americas too. We’re traveling through history until we reach our destination in Olam Haba. And you can join us on this journey if you wish.”

Now, don’t think it’s a drash what I’m saying. It’s the plain truth that you’re hearing now. Because as we travel we say, כִּי הדִּבֶּר טוֹב עַל יִשְׂרָאֵל – Hashem spoke good for Yisroel. What’s the good? So the Gemara says elsewhere (Kiddushin 39b) that there’s no good in this world that’s completely good. And when Hashem says “good,” he doesn’t mean partially good — He means entirely good.

So we’re not traveling only to Eretz Yisroel. Eretz Yisroel is not the place where our final happiness is going to be; there’s sickness in Eretz Yisroel and there’s death in Eretz Yisroel. It’s not the place that’s kulo tov and kulo aroch. Eretz Yisroel is only a mashal for the great good that Hashem has spoken for us. כָּל יִשְׂרָאֵל יֵשׁ לָהֶם חֵלֶק לָעוֹלָם הַבָּא – Every Jew has a share in the World to Come (Sanhedrin 90a). Our real destination is Olam Haba. That’s why we’re traveling and that’s where we’re traveling to.

On the Back of the Wagon With the Jews

And so Moshe says to this ger, to all the potential converts in history, “Come, join us on our journey to Olam Haba if you’d like. That’s one of the reasons why we’re traveling among you, to give you a chance to join us. If you want, you can hop on our wagon, and what’s going to happen to us is going to happen to you. The good that Hashem has spoken to us — that there’s a chelek for every Yisroel in the World to Come — will be for you too.”

And many had the good sense to join us in eternity. Rabi Akiva came from geirim! Rus was a giyoress. She had the good sense to join us. Dovid Hamelech came from her. Many great people came from geirim. Rabi Meir came from geirim. You look through a roster of the illustrious names, they come from people that had the sense to join us on our travels through history.

That’s why we traveled to Poland, so that a certain Count Potocki could hop aboard. He was a famous  ger tzedek who came from a noble family, and even though it was a time when nobody thought of embracing Judaism, he was an exceptional person and — despite the danger — he left home and joined us in secret.

Of course, that’s only a side story, that geirim might join us. We travel through history for more important reasons than geirim. Jews lived in Poland for a thousand years and so you can be sure that there were many other purposes too, besides Count Potocki. Only that as we travel we say to the gentiles, “לְכָה אִתָּנוּ – Come with us if you wish. You don’t want to? So don’t. Your hard luck. We’re traveling on anyhow to our destiny.”

Travel With Purpose

Now, you have to understand what it means that we’re traveling. We don’t travel just for the sake of travel. I once had in my shul a wealthy man, so for a vacation he traveled to the mountains. And once he was in the mountains, he decided he wanted to travel more. Maybe it’s more interesting on the other side of the ocean. So from the mountains he went on an excursion to Switzerland. That’s called journeying to nowhere.

You have to understand that the system of the Torah is different; our traveling is arranged by Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Like it says in our sedrah, עַל פִּי היִסְעוּ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְעַל פִּי היַחֲנוּ – We journey according to His arrangement (Bamidbar 9:18). Hashem plans every stage of our journey and everything that happens is for the purpose of reaching the destination of the Next World.

Now, if we’re going to understand this subject properly, one idea must be clear to us without any question. הָעוֹלָם הַזֶּה דּוֹמֶה לִפְרוֹזְדוֹר בִּפְנֵי הָעוֹלָם הַבָּא – This world is a lobby, a vestibule before the World to Come (Avos 4:16). No matter how much you think about it or talk about it, it’s not enough, because there shouldn’t be the slightest question in our minds that right now we’re journeying — even us, as we’re sitting here right now, we’re traveling to Olam Haba. And the result of that knowledge is, הַתְקֵן עַצְמְךָ בַּפְּרוֹזְדוֹר – prepare yourself, improve yourself in the vestibule, כְּדֵי שֶׁתִּכָּנֵס לַטְּרַקְלִין – in order that you should enter the banquet hall subsequently (ibid.).

And therefore every place that they visited in the forty years was intended for the purpose of making some improvement in their character. It was a program that was set by Hakadosh Baruch Hu. Sometimes He wanted them to be in one place יָמִים רַבִּים and sometimes only יָמִים מִסְפָּר. But whatever it was, it was עַל פִּי היַחֲנוּ וְעַל פִּי היִסָּעוּ, and the Bnei Yisroel knew, therefore, that they were living for a purpose.

Places of Perfection

Every place, every stage, they understood was an opportunity to get better and better. And because they understood that it was purposeful journeying, that each place intended to bring forth a different perfection, therefore they were the most successful that we ever had in our entire nation’s history. They became more and more perfect because of their travels; the nation became hammered out on the anvil of vicissitudes and they became great.

It’s like a blacksmith who is hammering on a piece of iron and making it stronger and stronger; every blow on the anvil makes the iron stronger. That’s what happened to the Bnei Yisroel as they traveled from place to place — their character became more and more purified. And the end was, אִסְפוּ לִי חֲסִידָי – Hashem says, “Gather unto Me, into the World to Come, all of My chassidim, My devoted ones” (Tehillim 50:5). That’s what Rabi Akiva says about the Dor Hamidbar (Sanhedrin 110b). They succeeded at becoming the best generation in our history because they understood that they were traveling not to Eretz Yisroel but to Olam Haba.

And so we understand now that when Moshe Rabbeinu said those famous words, נֹסְעִים אֲנַחְנוּ, he was describing not only the travels in the Midbar but the Am Yisroel’s travels through all of history. Hakadosh Baruch Hu is fully in charge of every detail that ever transpired and ever will transpire in the story of the nation. And so as we go from place to place, nothing is accidental. Hakadosh Baruch Hu has fashioned history in such a mysterious way that in every generation all the conditions of nature, all the conditions of society are so manipulated for the maximum benefit of the Am Yisroel; so that each place we find ourselves is a different opportunity.

Stopover in Babylon

There is a certain perfection that we gained in Bavel. Bavel was a great opportunity. The Jews lived in Bavel for a thousand years. Were they failures because they weren’t in Eretz Yisroel? Chas v’shalom. The Talmud Bavli is a result of their success. The great yeshivas of Bavel, everybody knows. All the Amoraim in Bavel, from Rav, all the way down to after Rav Ashi, the Rabanan Savorai and the Geonim. Hundreds of thousands of Sages in Bavel. Bavel was a huge success.

The Jews in Bavel were even better than the Jews in Eretz Yisroel. You have to know that. אֵין מִינִים בִּנְהַרְדְּעָא – There were no apikorsim in Bavel (Pesachim 56a). In Eretz Yisroel, there were apikorsim always. We had the Misyavnim in Eretz Yisroel. We had the Tzedukim. Then we had the Christians. But in Bavel it was always אֵין מִינִים. Always frum Jews in Bavel; always nothing but frum Jews. It was a success.

Then we went to North Africa. The Rif! We went to Germany. Rashi! Rashi became a success in Germany davka. Others, too. There were Gedolei Yisroel in Vermeiza, in Shpira, in Magentza. And the “plain” people too; in all the generations they became great in Germany. Some turned out to be failures but by and large they passed the test.

Stopping Off in Spain

Then they went to Spain. Spain was a different opportunity for perfection. It was ruled by the Moorish Arabs and the Jews lived in wealth and with a rich culture. Poetry, even grammar, flourished in Spain. Every facet of Jewish living was enriched in Spain!

Of course, the Torah and the Gedolei Yisroel flourished. All the great Rishonim, almost all of them were composed in Spain. The Ritva and the Rashba and the Ran; even the Rosh who came from Germany settled in Spain. All the great ones! Rabi Yehuda HaLevi; and the Rambam came from Spain originally. Spain was a glorious place, a cradle for Jewish culture, for Torah. Spain was a place of great success.

It’s true there were some failures too. There are always some who don’t realize where they’re traveling and they get lost; they go off the right path and go lost. Eventually, it was too much, and that’s why they were kicked out of Spain. Hakadosh Baruch Hu made them move; they journeyed to a new opportunity. But for many years, Spain was the test; the succeeders succeeded and the failures failed.

The Wandering Jew

Then they went to Poland. They went to Russia, to Lithuania. They went to England and to America. I say “they went,” but they were taken – עַל פִּי היִסְעוּ בְּנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל וְעַל פִּי היַחֲנוּ. We think, “Well, it’s because the goyim drove us out, geirush Shpanya, there were gezeiros, so we had to leave.” No. It’s all done by the Plan of Hashem for our perfection.

That’s Jewish history — traveling. The Jews were on the East Side and then from there they traveled to Brownsville. וַיִּסְעוּ וַיַּחֲנוּ – And then from Brownsville to Crown Heights, and from Crown Heights to East Flatbush. And then to Flatbush. וַיִּסְעוּ וַיַּחֲנוּ, וַיִּסְעוּ וַיַּחֲנוּ — Hashem is moving us through history, and every place where we lived had a certain contribution to our history, certain tests and opportunities.

Like we moved from our old neighborhood in East Flatbush, Rugby, to here. That was arranged by Hashem. It’s a different opportunity we have now. We’re near the Mirrer Yeshiva and we’re among the Sefardim now, the Syrians.

The Successful Wanderer

And it will continue like that. We’ll keep moving along to wherever Hashem takes us. And we’ll succeed because we know the secret of history that wherever the nation is, it’s the מָקוֹם אֲשֶׁר אָמַר ה’. That’s why very many people gained great success. Hundreds of thousands of Jews, millions of men and women lived frum lives throughout all these generations and brought up children and they’re all in Olam Haba today.

They came to the place that Hashem promised them and they’re there right now, enjoying the great happiness that He foretold for them.

My Addendum: 

Just like wherever a Jew is in Chu”l when he/she davens, we face toward the Makom, Mt Moriah in Yerushalayim……

As we wander thru life and the diaspora, we are always headed to Mt. Moriah in Yerushalayim…..

For there is where all our prayers rise and enter Shamayim……

So too we are to end our wandering by entering Eretz HaKodesh, 

the Land of Israel and Yerushalayim as "a Land which Hashem, your God, looks after, on which Hashem, your God, always keeps an eye, from the beginning of the year to the end of the year."
