JERUSALEM (VINnews) — An amazing story told by Rav Zamir Cohen of the Hidabrut organization explained why the Hamas terrorists in a certain kibbutz had inexplicably passed by a certain house and not attacked the family staying there.
The story was told by a woman who had just given birth in Shaare Tzedek hospital. She said that a few years ago she started to become more religious, (her husband was still less religious) but the atmosphere in the kibbutz was not amenable to keeping Shabbat, so she usually went away for Shabbat to a religious community. However due to the fact that she was due to give birth, she stayed home on Simchas Torah and even hosted two guests.
As the terrorists moved through the kibbutz, massacring many of its inhabitants, the family were in the safe room but their hearts were in their mouth as they heard the cries and the shooting from other houses. However the terrorists passed their house- they even saw them through the slits in the safe room – but didn’t touch it.
Later they found out that the terrorists had lists provided by one of the Gazan workers on the kibbutz. He had worked for families there (even receiving presents from them) thus gaining information about everyone and telling the terrorists where to do their grisly work. Regarding this family the worker had written that they “go away for Shabbat” and therefore the terrorists did not touch the home.
This story, among other stories about those who did not attend the party at Reim due to accepting Shabbat observance just before, emphasizes the words of Ibn Ezra in his famous song: “If I keep Shabbat, G-d will preserve me.”

Heard about this story the other day. Then there's the story where a girl at the concert
was very modestly dressed and when those evil demons came to massacre everyone, y's, the terrorist saw her and asked her 'what are you doing here', run, run, run now'. This is so obviously m'Shamayim. H' has given us, the bnai Yisrael, such a very harsh wakeup call; I pray that each and every Yiddishe neshama will wake up; so the Geulah continues with much greater rachamim for every yid with no more t'zar. In the meantime we pray for a great nitzachon for the chayalim and H' Yishmor each and every one of our holy chayalim and every Yiddishe neshama in EY and everywhere!
