Thoughts And Words That Fall Into Prophecy . . .

The politicians, the scientists, and activists are all just distractions. 

They’re just G–D’s means to get history to where it has to go next. 

It’s really irrelevant whether the coronavirus is as bad as they say or hyped, whether the vaccines are really vaccines and good for you, or not. 

It will be what G–D wants it to be, and it will affect what G–D wants it to affect. 


The plague was meant for the Egyptians, and we celebrate it as the 

second [to] last before Pharaoh let us go. 

But in reality, no Egyptians are recorded dying from it, yet 12,000,000 Jews did

It made sure that the only Jews who left Egypt were the ones G–D deemed worthy of leaving, 

and there wasn’t a hint of antisemitism anywhere. 

If you want to survive as a Jew, you have to think outside the antisemitism box. 

G–D has more than one way to get the job done.

Rabbi Pinchas Winston



Imagine what it was like after the seven days of darkness during which the Jews died as well. 

Some family members survived, many did not. 

Some friends were still living, many had perished. 

Only one out of every five Jews, after only one week, remained.

But that was 3,319 years ago. 

What relevance is there today in knowing such a statistic?


And why did He bring darkness upon them? 

Because there were wicked people amongst the Jewish people of that generation who had no desire to leave Egypt, and these died during the three days of darkness… (Rashi)  


Only one out of five left Egypt, while four-fifths died during the three days of darkness because they were unworthy of being delivered. (Rashi, Shemos 13:18)


Rava said: It will be likewise in the Days of Moshiach. (Sanhedrin 111a)


Given that four out of every five Jews today is assimilated, prompting many to refer to this as a spiritual holocaust,

Yeah, I read his d'var earlier this week, and realized that I never thought about that fact...no Mitzrim died, and 12M Jews did. However, by the words of the Rebbe, no Jews will be left out of the final geula, so...who knows. Definitely, something to ponder, though.
