Rav Kaduri of blessed memory passed away tonight. He was the last of the great Gedolim of the previous generation. I am sure he will ask Hashem to send Moshiach now and save the people of Israel from their terrible Govt.
I just read that his last words were something like, "The time redemption has arrived...:
With the inflation of such statements over the years I suppose it means that Mashiach actually will come, maybe not today but tomorrow as we await him every day as we always have. Does such a statement really mean anything anymore?
I can't post at the moment. Technical issues with blogger and my host.
I also feel as dirt...
Thats the human destiny, Tzemach - "כי מעפר נוצרת, ואל עפר תשוב" and in the meanwhile you feel like dirt...
again your vertlach
why like dirt TA ... and is it a good thing or a bad thing?
Are you scorning me? Beware, Tzemach Atlas! The magical powers of Kaduri have been passed on to me. כהרף עין I could cause your actual return to עפר.
Is anyone familiar with the supposed "promise" of some kind, that Rabbi Kaduri was to live until Moshiach came?
vinatge, who cares, enough promises.
Indeed, Tzemach. U'Kvar it was sung by our master, our teacher etc Leonard Cohen Le'oylam Va'ed that "a scheme is not a vision" (Story of Issac 2:02)
"After the Sharon Government Moshiach Will Come"
(from www.yiddishkeit.org)
"After the Sharon government, the Moshiach will come" -- so foresees the tzaddik, the G-dly Rabbi Yitzchok Kaduri,the renowned Kabbalist of over 100 years age. His words were reported in the Israeli newspaper Yediot Achronot.
In the words of the Rav, the Moshiach is already in the Holy Land, and will reveal himself in the future at the moment that is set for him. The Rav revealed to his students that according to calculations of the Vilna Gaon, the war of Gog and Magog began about [three] years ago (on Hoshana Raba), and will continue for seven years. During this time, every moment is suited for the Moshiach to reveal himself. (The American War on Terror began on Hoshana Raba when the Americans went into Afghanistan.)
Rav Kaduri has lately been speaking with greater frequency on the revelation of the Moshiach, and he said that signs have already been given for this from Heaven by way of cosmic events, which indicate -- according to the secrets of Torah -- the arrival of the benevolent end of days. "The world continues on and is being sweetened" -- thus is the Rav accustomed to addressing his students.
The revelation of the Moshiach, according to the Rav, will rescue Jerusalem from the hands of Islam and Xtianity, both of which seek to overwhelm Jerusalem and wrest ownership of her away from the Jewish people; but their ways will not succeed and they will wage war against each other. The Rav revealed that hidden in the garments of Moshiach is a Magen-David which grants him the power to conduct himself in a concealed way.
As will be remembered, at the time of the meeting between Rav Kaduri, shlita and the Lubavitcher Rebbe more than 12 years ago, the Rebbe said to him that he would merit to live until the revelation of Moshiach.
a few tidbits about Olmert from a blog:
...and then Michael told me the Ketz of the future that is to happen in the end of days, in the days of a king that is about to be, named Harmelt הרמל , and some say named Tarmla תרמלא.
The last king in Persia will go to Rome fro three years, one after the other, until he revolts against it after 12 months, and three heros of war are going against him from the sea, and they will be handed over to him. A very low king will go against him from the sea, and these will be his signs that Daniel saw in him: his face long, between his eyes height(?) (eyebrows?), and he is very tall, and his feet are tall, and his legs are thin.
And he shall in that day come against the believing people, and shall tremble in that day 3 times and all the Mazalot will gather to one place, taking homes unlawfuly from their owners, and taking fields, and beating orphan and widow in the market, but if they'll do Tshuva, they will be forgiven... The original name is Harmelt or Tarmla, and then there are opinions of sages on his name. From what I know of Midrashim, their opinions here are not exactly his name, but hints at his personality or events (in a footnote: he may seem Kosher to those who are not Medakdekim.
No one expects that Chazal will write us the exact name, only in some similarity, like "Gog" hints "George" (as was approved by the Rav who forsaw Tsunami). Now, take the name Tarmla in Hebrew: תרמלא and read it backwards: אלמרת (Alef-Lamed-Mem-Resh-Tav), and it's pretty clear: אלמרט (ט and ת are interchangable), Ehud Olmert, the PM replacement, is the ruler than it his days, according to this Midrash, the Ketz will come!
