Portion Tazria - False Prophets False gods False Ideas and Kids

 

 

The portion begins with Childbirth Rules

 

And continues with Laws of Lepers

 

You know We have Mitzvas - and if we don't do them all ,

then  the Almighty gives us "make up mitzvas" - to keep us together on a Holy Path

 

So if you're not going to have kids now there is the

Efrat organization to help poor pregnant women to meet the costs!

 

And if you think there are too many peiple in Earth - 

so Do You think Russia has an answer - to bomb and kill and enslave??? Crazy!

 

Europeans have few children - but Muslims in Eurpe have been increasing their population percentages ...

and

Chinese slowed down birthrate, but, now recently loosened up to allow more kids.  

 

Where does that put the Israelite/Jew  today?

 

I was walking in my old neighborhood for work yesterday, 

And Bumped into an old friend who was waiting at a corner to help his little granddaughter cross the street.....

 

What a joy!

 

So the Torah says Atem ha me aht Mikol Ha a mim - we will always be a Small Nation

but

With a lot of Mitzvot.  -   to be Priests of Holiness to the world

 

Every Child is Holy to the Almighty!

 

So the portion continues with Laws of Lepers

 

Fighting Disease

 

And with healing the lepers!

 

Grandchildren are a miracle!

 

So is Healing!

 

And as to the mitzvas of childbirth of this Portion

Rabbi Carlebach says :

 

Yes you holy women hold the key!!!

 

For 9 months You and a Child are ONE

 

Wharever one breathes the other BREATHES

 

Whatever one eats the other EATS

 

The Mother Child bond is a

Metaphor for the G-d Humanity Bond!!!

 

HOW DARE some SUPPOSED RELIGIOUS LEADERS ORDER KILLINGS

AND IN THE NAME OF THEIR "god"???

 

While a few Arab and Israeli  Leaders met this past week with intent to expand Abraham's Accords, to bring hope to the Middle East

 

Others were expanding their murderous moves to Prevent Prosperity for the Masses of huManity (as well as FeMale Freedom from Opression ).

 

In The Jerusalem Talmud question I learned about this week was AND IS 

 

A prophetic statement as to WHERE WE MUST and CAN BE MOVING 

 

On the ancient issues of Levirate Marriage - if married brothers die

 

The Jerusalem Talmud version brings a story of 13 brothers 12 of whom have died

 

Not to go into details here, but the Former Sisters in Law band together and together support each other's families!!! That's  the Torah teaching.

 

Wishing us All a part In Raising Great Families and

Healing the World

 

Shabbat Shalom
