Portion in Iisrael Acharei & in Exile : Passover 8 th Day
Drama in the Talmud
The Ceasar in Rome used Rabbi Yehosua Ben Chananya as a wise advisor - but
what Started with their discussion of whether since the Garden of Eden story - if
The snakes are the Most Cursed ...( bring death and eat live animals too)
Ended up with Ceasar Sending him off to debate the wisest of the world - In Athens
and the Loser dies - either in Athens or Rome!
One example of the debate - the Athens Scholars asked the Rabbi to prove -
which eggs come from Balck chickens and which from White chickens!
What does a Rabbi do - showed them some goat cheeses and asked THEM
which came from a Black goat and which from a White!
Based on MaHarShah ... and Rav Kook - the debate was REALLY about the world -
Is there a holy SPIRIT that can't die! Where do we come from - and where do we "go"!
The Exodus of Israel (Passover) ... is proof there is POTENTIAL redemption of the world!
And there is Life after Death
A holy prediction - that the WORLD needs to learn!
According to Rav Abergil -
that is the kabbalistic view of the four sons and the four questions! (from the seder)
And the Answer from the Seder? That the
Wise son and Wicked son Must eventually sit at the Seder together
to Fill the Voids of Spirituality in the World!
What is the biggest "life after death" question?
This portion Acharei speaks of the passing of Aron's 2 sons in the Temple in the desert!
Like my grandfather (aged 93) asked me after his two sons passed away before him (3 daughters survived him)
Is their spirit still alive? My uncle Mo and my uncle Irving!
Based on the teachings of the four sons from the hagada
and the next 49 days of Omer Counting - our tradition and history would say
Some day we will ALL sit together at the Seder of the Moshiach and G-d
Happy Holiday and Shabbat Shalom
