Portion Key Taytzay LaMil Chama - it's WAR today- and the Spanish Armada?
"When you go out to war …"
Some of us are fighting for our lives
Whether in hospitals or on battlefields
May the Almighty protect us from all ills and evils!
Remember that the Torah is meant to Protect Us!
This Torah portion says to Us All - WHEN you go out to war against our enemies...
Does everyone. Have Enemies?
Youknow, your Enemies , ALL my people and friends
Are
1
Ignorance
2
Hatred
3
Meanness of Spirit
4
Greed
Not everyone needs be a genius
But to love ignorance is Evil used by Some
Leaders who like ignorant followers because it lets them control
And not everyone can love everyone
but hatred can be and IS often Roiled Up and used against humanity
So - if
some people can be a little crotchety -
Really- it's understandable and True that
everyone deserves a little from the Bounty and even PLENTY
that we ALL see in this generation! -
But be fair - Hashem
blessed us and Commanded Us - with all these good things -
and with the capacity for Goodness and understanding
To remind the world:
Where is all the gold the Spanish stole from South America?
Half of it is still in sunken vessels at the bottom of the ocean
The rest financed the wars of the Spanish people - those who Expelled the Jews
Until the powerful Spanish Armada was defeated by the Hand of G-d
Why did they go out to
purposely hurt? It was And Is GREED!
So the portion teaches us ways we can and
must teach the World to
avoid and War Against greed and meanness of spirit
and to look for and support
The Heavenly Purposes at all times.
Shabbat Shalom
