ESSER: Who Should We Vote For In Israel's Elections? 诇诪讬 诇讛爪讘讬注 讘讘讞讬专讜转?
Despite my not wanting to discuss or *post (or vote) anything about the elections, presented here is Esser Agaroth's concise truth about them:
Esser Agaroth (2¢):
Minutes after I had published my post Why I Can No Longer Vote For Moshe Feiglin, someone directed my attention to candidate #12 on Itamar Ben-Gvir’s Otzmah Yehudit (Jewish Strength) List.
I was not at all pleased.
How did he sneak his way into the list? I imagine that his tenure as the spokesperson for the Hevron community had something to do with to it.
Well Ohad Tal is candidate #7 on the Religious Zionist-Zehut list. He may have a chance of getting in -- not good -- especially if they join the government, and Smotrich and Feiglin resign their seats to become ministers.
I think Fleisher is more dangerous than Ohad Tal, if no other reason that he is a native English speaker. And native Israelis traditionally have no clue about the underbelly of Christians, whereas even your average American Jew knows more, or at least used to. Although both he and Tal have attended Waller’s Israel Summit.
TO READ HIS CONCLUSIONS: Esser Agaroth (2¢)!

The Baal Shem of Michelstadt zt"l
Rav Yitzchok Arye Zekel Leib of Worms zt"l
Baal Shem of Michelstadt

Tishrei 3, 5608 / 1847
A special article about the Baal Shem of Michelstadt is featured (as a Miracle Worker even in our days) in the current issue of MISHPACHA Magazine (R"H Issue)
(Some say 4 Tishrei)
Rav Yitzchok Arye Zekel Leib was born in 5528 in Michelstadt, in the Erbach county of Hessen, Germany. A scion of the Luria Ashkenazi familes, he was a fourth-generation descendant of Rav Eliyohu Ba’al Shem of Worms (21 Tammuz), and descended from the Maharshal, Arizal, Rashi and Ba’alei Tosfos.
Rav Mattisyohu (5489/1729–5562/1802) was a cloth merchant in Michelstadt and his mother Sorel’eh was niftar in 5551/1791. Zekel Leib was the eighth of a family of ten children, boys and girls, some of whom passed away in childhood; he lived to the oldest age and survived them all.
FAMILY GENEALOGY
The family name was originally Mattes and was later changed to Wormzer by the government authorities in (1808) 转拽住"讞. The reason for this was that his great grandfather, Yitzchok Zeklin Eichel Luntsch, who passed away in the year (1710) 转"注, lived for many years in Worms and served there as dayan. Rav Yitzchok Zeklin’s father was named Rav Moshe Baruch Elsass and perhaps the family originally came from Elsass (Alsace?), later moving to Worms and from there to Michelstadt.
Rav Zekel Leib’s grandfather was Rav Yaakov of Michelstadt. He passed away (1758) 转拽讬"讞. His grandmother was Yettle. She passed away (1755) 转拽讟讜. She was the daughter of Rav Mattisyahu Ahrweiler who served as rav of Bingen and afterwards as rav of the kloiz in Mannheim and finally in Heidelberg. He passed away (1728) 转驻"讞. Rav Mattisyahu’s father was Rav Hertz Ahrweiler, a dayan in Frankfurt. He passed away in (1678) 转诇"讞.
Rav Yaakov of Michelstadt was a descendant of Rav Eliyahu of Luntsch who was known as the Baal Shem of Worms (1564-1636) 砖讻"讚-砖爪"讜. Rav Eliyahu served as rav in the following kehillos: Worms, Fulda, Hanau, Mainz, Friedberg and finally Worms again. He was a gadol in both the revealed and hidden aspects of Torah and authored a number of seforim including: Rinas Dodim on Shir Hashirim, Michlal Yofi on Koheles, glosses on the Semag, and Vichuch Yayin Im Mayim. Among his unpublished manuscripts was Aderes Eliyahu on the Zohar.
Rav Eliyahu Baal Shem’s grandfather was the famed Rav Yosselman of Rossheim (1478-1554) 专诇"讞-砖讬"讚. Rav Yosselman’s mother descended from the Luria family who traced their lineage back to Shlomo Shapira from Speyer-- (1375) 拽诇"讛 --and Rashi.

Tishrei 1 , 2086 -1676
When Avraham returned from Mount Moriah, the Satan became infuriated. He had not achieved what he had desired, which was to thwart the sacrifice of Avraham. What did he do? He went to Sarah and asked: “Did you hear (any news) of what has happened in the world?” She replied, “No.” He said, “Avaham took Yitzchok his son and slaughtered him, offering him up on the altar as a sacrifice.” Sarah began to cry, and moan the sound of three wails which correspond to the three blasts of the shofar, and her soul burst forth from her and she died. Avraham came only to find that she had died. From where had he come? From Mount Moriah. — Midrash Pirkei De-Rabbi Eliezer, Chapter 31-32
See also Rashi "The story of the death of Sarah immediately follows that of the Binding of Isaac, because through the announcement of the Akeidah — that her son had been prepared for sacrifice and had almost been sacrificed — she received a great shock (literally, her soul departed and left her) and she died."
Midrash VaYikra Rabbah
Yitzchok came back to his mother and she said to him: ‘Where have you been, my son?’ He replied to her: ‘My father took me and led me up mountains and down hills,’ etc. ‘Woe,’ she said, ‘for the son of a hapless woman! If not for the angel you would by now have been slain!’ ‘Yes,’ he said to her. She uttered six cries, corresponding to six blasts of the shofar. She had scarcely finished talking when she died. As it says, And Avraham came to mourn for Sarah, and to weep for her (Bereishis 23:2). Where did he come from? Rabbi Yehudah son of Rabbi Shimon said: He came from Mount Moriah.
See also Midrash Tanchuma:
At that very moment the Satan went to Sarah and disguised himself as Yitzchok. When she saw him, she asked: “My son, what has your father done to you?” He answered, “My father took me and made me climb up mountains and go down into valleys and he made me climb up a certain mountain, and built an altar. He set up the altar and arranged the kindling and bound me on the altar. He then took the knife to slaughter me. If Hashem, the Holy One had not called out, ‘Do not lay your hand on this boy,’ I would have been slaughtered.” He did not finish his sentence when Sarah’s soul had already departed. As it is written, “And Avraham came to mourn for Sarah and to weep for her.” Where did he come from? From Mount Moriah.
Rabbeinu Amnon zt"l…… “Unesana Tokef”

Rav Amnon Magentza of Mainz was one of the gedolei hador in the 11th century. He was learned in Kabbalah, and was wise in all forms of wisdom. He was a wealthy and handsome man from a family of distinguished yichus.
In his beis medrash there was a miraculous ner tamid that burned all week long without oil! (Seder HaDoros)
Rav Amnon enjoyed a close relationship to the king. The royal ministers tried daily to get him to renounce his faith and become an apostate. He never paid them any heed until one day the king himself asked him to give up his faith. Feeling uncomfortable in front of the king, he sought a way to extricate himself from this confrontation and simply said, “Give me three days’ time to think about it.”
He was never really going to consider the request at all; he only made the statement as an excuse to gain time. Still, the matter gave Rav Amnon no rest. He was tormented by the fact that he had given the king even the merest impression that he would ever give up his faith. How could he have made it even seem that he was willing to even consider renouncing his emunah in Hashem and the Torah?! His friends and family tried to console him to no avail. After three days passed, he refused to appear before the king. When the king called him to stand judgment before him for failing to arrive, he said that he would pass judgment on himself and announce a fitting punishment for his misdeed:
“My lying tongue that spoke falsely should be cut out,” he proclaimed. Rav Amnon felt that it would be a kiddush Hashem since he had spoken as if he considered the possibility of leaving his faith.
“No,” the king declared, “I will cut off the feet that failed to bring you to come before me and we will torture your body.” As they cut off each of his limbs, they asked him to reconsider and to renounce his faith and accept theirs. Though he suffered horribly, he staunchly refused. Finally, with the stages of torture concluded, the king had him placed in a wood box alongside all his dismembered limbs. In this manner, they had him brought home.
Seder HaDoros says that this is why he was named Amnon because he truly believed with full faith in the living G-d – E”l Chai . [Translator’s note: Perhaps Amnon is a pseudonym, or alternatively, it was his given name and the statement is a derash that his true name proved his faith in Hashem.]
On Rosh Hashanah, Rav Amnon requested that they carry him to shul in the box, along with his dismembered limbs. They placed him by the chazzan. He accepted his terrible pain and suffering lovingly as penance for his crime. When the chazzan reached Kedushah, Rav Amnon asked him to pause. “Let me sanctify Hashem’s name in public,” he announced and proceeded to recite the famous liturgical poem, Unesana Tokef. At that moment, his soul departed.
Three days later he appeared to Rabbeinu Kalonymous ben Rabbeinu Meshulam and taught him the words to the poem and asked that it be taught and spread among Klal Yisroel. It was thus established that it be recited annually each Rosh Hashanah. In this way, Klal Yisroel would be remembered favorably before Hashem in connection to the great rectification that Rav Amnon made. (This is based on hand written accounts from old machzorim that belonged to Rav Yitzchok of Vienna, author of the Ohr Zaruawho testifies that he found this story in the writings of Rav Ephraim ben Yaakov of Vienna and the Seder HaDoros says he saw it in an ancient German machzor.)

Rosh HaShana and the Sheva Minim
The Seven Attributes
The Kabbalists explain that there is a much deeper significance to these fruits. Each corresponds to one of the seven sefirot (Divine emotive attributes):5
Every soul possesses all seven of these sefirot. But for each person, one of these traits is most dominant, shaping the individual soul’s unique path to G‑d. Thus, these seven fruits correspond to our serving G‑d with our personal attributes, as well as with all seven general modes of Divine service.
For more on how each fruit corresponds to a specific attribute, see The Seven Species and Seven Attributes.
