Faith leaders and non-religious advocates are joining forces to fight homelessness and housing insecurity. In New York, a coalition of Buddhist temples and Jewish congregations teamed up with secular housing justice organizations to convert unused religious properties into transitional housing. Meanwhile, humanist organizations are lobbying for rent control laws and tenant protections. This united effort reflects a shared ethical stance: dignity and shelter should be accessible to all.

Genocide, a profane taboo word, commonly raped pillaged and burned among people who abhor the Israeli response to the Oct 7th 2023 massacre. Genocide in this context, amounts to Holocaust denial. A word meant to prevent another Shoah has been weaponized to accuse Jews of committing the very crime inflicted upon them.
Genocide — a word forged in the ashes of the Shoah — has become a profane taboo, violated, cheapened, and weaponized by those who abhor Israel’s response to the Oct. 7th 2023 massacre. In this context, the accusation is not merely false; it amounts to Holocaust denial. A term meant to prevent another genocide is now hurled against the Jewish state in a grotesque inversion of history: the victims accused of the crime that nearly annihilated them.
This version of the Xtian Church infamous blood libel. Manufactured and disseminated by the UN, EU bureaucrats, Moscow, Beijing, and the media conglomerates that sell “genocide headlines” the way pornography sells clicks. Genocide sells. Justice does not. And so, the word violently and brutally raped and pillaged for political theatre rather than applied with legal integrity. Genocide occurs when those in power worship power itself, not justice. But no one dares question the motives of the institutions promoting this Blood Libel slander. Why? Because the same leaders, together with their institutions, have grown dependent on the “Jewish problem” narrative to justify their own existence.
Never once has anyone questioned the agenda of an organization that promotes this “Blood Libel Slander” made against Israel. Israel did not sign the Rome Agreement which established the International Court of the Hague. In point of fact, NEVER AGAIN, as PM Begin expressly communicated to Jimmy Carter at Camp David, means that Israelis post the European “Final Solution” will ever again permit, specifically European Goyim States, to dictate their “SOLUTION” to “THE JEWISH PROPLEM”. Israel rejects the idea that: (1) Jews exist again a ward of Europe. (2) Jewish sovereignty pre-conditional to UN approval. (3) Jewish self-defense is subject to foreign veto. Thus, the ICC’s attempted jurisdiction is a political fiction—an extension of the pre-1948 mindset that Jews do not have independent standing among nations. The ICC’s claim of jurisdiction over Israel: a fiction built on an older fiction. This accusation of “genocide” guilt imposed by Press decree upon Israel, simply the old paternalism in a new legal wrapper of classic South African Apartheid racism.
The accusation of “genocide” against Israel after Oct. 7, a form of modernized Holocaust denial — a mutation of the classic European blood libel — and the UN’s usage of the term reveals a long-standing imperial contempt for Jewish sovereignty. The UN never had moral universality. It functioned from birth as a colonial power-balancing instrument, and its treatment of Israel, merely the most concentrated exposure of its original design flaws. Where medieval Xtendom accused Jews of murdering Xtian children, the modern UN-Leftist coalition accuses Jews of murdering Palestinian children.
The replacement theology converts the UN as the new Ersatz-Xtianity. The idea of a secularized form of Xtianity that rejects the theological trappings of the Gospel narrative, but retains dogmatic moral and ethical frameworks associated with Papal Rome. This concept often manifests in political contexts, where political ideologies adopt seemingly Xtian ethical principles, like for an example: a just war, without engaging theological ‘Good News’ yet promoting the new religion of democracy.
The UN originally set up to prevent another Shoah. Clearly the UN has failed its mandate and MUST disband. What does the UN have to do with the Xtian “Genocide” in Nigeria? Or Pol Pot, or Idi[ot] Amin? The UN promotes platitudes rather than pursues justice. The UN today totally not recognizable to the UN of 1948. Pursuit of power and political coalitions of State international alliances has completely uprooted the founding Charter. The UN systematically ignores or minimizes actual genocide, mass slaughter, and mass enslavement when politically inconvenient. The UN protects authoritarian regimes with bloc voting. The Human Rights Council institutionalizes political scapegoating. UN Bloc voting by authoritarian states has turned this pie in the sky replacement of Wilson’s post WWI League of Nations into a political marketplace where justice get bought and sold on the illegal white women, and child-slave trade-markets.
Franklin D. Roosevelt U.S. President; championed the idea of a global peace organization. Eleanor Roosevelt, Chairperson of the UN Commission on Human Rights; pivotal in drafting the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. Winston Churchill – British Prime Minister; advocated for collective security and cooperation. Joseph Stalin – Soviet Dictator primarily responsible for the Allied victory over the Nazis; boycotted the UN Chapter VII dictate to North Korea. Charles de Gaulle – not included at the Yalta Conference, French Resistance leader; crucial in representing defeated France’s interests post-WWII wherein France sat as a Permanent Member in the UN Security Council. De Gaulle as a statesman, succeeded in asserting France’s interests in the aftermath of World War II. Harry S. Truman, U.S. President after FDR; supported the formation and principles of the UN which negated the Constitutional Right of Congress to Declare War.
The Yalta Conference, held in February 1945, was a pivotal meeting between Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin to discuss the post-war reorganization of Europe and the establishment of international cooperation through the United Nations. Their responses varied significantly, reflecting their distinct national interests and ideologies. Stalin showed a positive attitude towards Roosevelt’s proposal for a new international organization aimed at maintaining peace. He recognized the need for a framework to manage post-war tensions and prevent conflicts. These men who built the UN, represent colonial empires, racial hierarchies, colonial interests, and military blocs.
Stalin insisted that the new organization must include mechanisms that recognized the Soviet Union’s status as a major power. He wanted assurances that Soviet interests and security concerns, particularly in Eastern Europe, would be addressed. While agreeing to the formation of the United Nations, Stalin was adamant about establishing Soviet influence in Eastern Europe, emphasizing a security buffer to protect the Soviet Union from future aggression. Clearly the Democratic Party leadership attempt to increase the NATO alliance to include these same Eastern European countries into the NATO alliance, specifically the Ukraine, no UN Resolution has ever condemned.
Churchill was more cautious regarding Stalin’s intentions. He was supportive of the idea of a United Nations but harbored concerns about Soviet expansionism and the balance of power in Europe. Churchill advocated for a United Nations that emphasized democratic principles and human rights. He urged for a system that would prevent the imposition of totalitarian regimes, especially in nations liberated from Nazi occupation. Yet the UN promotes Arab dictatorships, specifically Palestinian Arab dictatorships, precisely following the Oct 7th 2023 massacre of Israelis. Churchill wrote the first White Paper, this man focused his interests over British domination upon any new balance of power political arrangement.
Stalin’s enthusiasm for the concept of the United Nations demonstrated a strategic acknowledgment of the necessity for international governance. This was essential for managing tensions after the war. His insistence on recognizing the Soviet Union’s status as a major power was non-negotiable. The establishment of a security buffer in Eastern Europe was paramount for him, as it aligned with the Soviet doctrine of protecting its borders from perceived threats. Stalin’s strategy foreshadowed the post-war division of Europe. His desire for influence in Eastern Europe laid the groundwork for future Cold War dynamics, where conflicting ideologies and interests between the USSR and Western nations would lead to tension.
Mali announced the expulsion of French troops, effectively ending an French economic or military domination. In similar fashion the governments of Burkina Faso, Niger, Chad, Senegal, & Côte d’Ivoire. The UN never once condemned French neocolonialism. The rise of alternative global partnerships, particularly with nations like China and Russia, has provided Sahelian countries with options to diversify their diplomatic and economic relationships. The UN never condemned Western neocolonial economic structured dominance which favored French interests over African development. Independent Sahelian countries, no thanks to the UN, have started to forge new alliances that prioritize their interests rather than continuing to rely on traditional colonial ties. African sovereignty and control over national resources the UN never recognized.
Jan Christian Smuts, a prominent South African statesman and military leader, had a contentious and complex relationship with Mahatma Gandhi. While they both played influential roles in early 20th-century India and South Africa, their interactions were often marked by significant ideological differences and personal animosity. Smuts held a more conservative viewpoint, often prioritizing colonial interests and the maintenance of order within the British Empire.
One major point of contention was the implementation of discriminatory pass laws targeting Indians in South Africa. Gandhi actively opposed these laws through protests, while Smuts supported the laws as a means of maintaining control. During discussions about Indian representation in South African politics, Smuts was seen as obstructive, further fueling Gandhi’s disdain for him.
Reports suggest that Smuts had a personal dislike for Gandhi, viewing him as a radical undermining British authority in South Africa. This animosity was reflected in their public exchanges and political opposition. Despite their differences, Gandhi’s struggle for Indian rights in South Africa remains a significant historical contribution, overshadowing Smuts’ position at that time. Today, Smuts is often critiqued for his stances, which contributed to systemic discrimination, while Gandhi is celebrated for his non-violent approach to achieving social justice. The relationship between Jan Christian Smuts and Mahatma Gandhi exemplifies the broader tensions of colonial politics, with personal ideologies and ambitions clashing in a critical period of history. Their interactions serve as a lens through which the complexities of resistance against colonial rule can be understood.
Jawaharlal Nehru, as India’s first Prime Minister played a significant role in the establishment of the United Nations (UN). Nehru was a strong proponent of internationalism and believed in the necessity of a global organization to foster peace and cooperation among nations. His vision was largely influenced by the horrors of World War II and the need to prevent future conflicts. Nehru actively participated in key discussions that shaped the UN’s formation. He was part of the Indian delegation at the San Francisco Conference in 1945, where the UN Charter was drafted.
His contributions emphasized the importance of decolonization and civil rights. Nehru advocated for the inclusion of human rights in the UN framework. As a leader from a newly independent nation, he championed the cause of oppressed peoples, aiming for a UN that would not only prevent wars but also promote social justice. Nehru’s commitment to the UN and its principles laid a foundation for India’s active participation in UN affairs, which has continued to influence its foreign policy. His advocacy for peace, cooperation, and justice remains a part of India’s global identity today.
In 1975 the United Nations Human Rights Commission condemned the Augusto Pinochet regime for its widespread human rights violations, including torture and political repression. The resolution called attention to reports of extrajudicial killings, disappearance of political opponents, and the overall lack of civil liberties in Chile under Pinochet’s dictatorship. The Augusto Pinochet regime immediately eclipsed the socialist influence of Hernán Santa Cruz.
Alger Hiss, a high-ranking official in the U.S. State Department and a key figure in the founding meetings of the United Nations. In 1948, Whittaker Chambers, a former communist and journalist, accused Hiss of being a communist spy and of passing classified documents to the Soviet Union. In 1950, Hiss was tried for perjury and was convicted, serving several years in prison. While Hiss was involved in the establishment of the United Nations, serving as a crucial part of the U.S. delegation at the founding conference in 1945, his legacy became overshadowed by the espionage allegations. Historians often debate the extent of his guilt, with some arguing that he was falsely accused.
The Weaponization of “Genocide”, the UN has perverted into a political cudgel, detached from its historical meaning. Its use against Israel, framed as a form of Holocaust denial and “blood libel.” Israel’s Sovereignty Post-Holocaust — “Never Again” means Israel will not allow external powers—especially European states—to dictate Jewish survival, our international borders or our Capital City. Israel’s refusal to sign the Rome Statute, presented as a rejection of foreign-imposed “solutions” which presume Israel remains a Protectorate Territory of the UN or post WWII European Courts of international law.
The UN was created to prevent another Shoah, but instead it promotes platitudes and power politics. Examples: ignoring atrocities in Nigeria, Pol Pot’s Cambodia, Idi Amin’s Uganda, and French neocolonialism in Africa. A UN which continually remains worse than simply silent about its founding premise: preventing unilateral security expansions that could trigger world conflict. A UN which “claims” to defend human rights, built partly by men who defend racially stratified empires.
Selective Condemnations, the UN condemned Pinochet’s Chile but ignored French neocolonialism in Africa. UN resolutions often reflect political convenience rather than consistent justice. The Smuts vs. Gandhi conflict illistrates how the UN’s silence on neocolonial structures in Africa echoes the impact of Colonial legacies.
Alger Hiss’s role in founding the UN is overshadowed by espionage accusations, symbolizing the organization’s compromised legacy, matched only by the grossly perverted number of UN condemnations made against Israel. The UN has always had compromised foundations, and those cracks have widened into fissures today.
The UN never morally coherent. It stands exposed as a truce between competing empires wrapped in universal language. The same Human Rights Commission built by men like Smuts and Santa Cruz now functions as a propaganda bureau for authoritarian regimes. And the same UN founded with Alger Hiss — now shadowed by espionage accusations — continues to operate with layers of clandestine influence.
The weaponization of “genocide”, an old psychological warfare guilt trip, on par with “He died for you”. It continues the old European narative: The Jew as the world’s chief problem. Where once Jews were accused of poisoning wells, today we are accused of poisoning Gaza. Where once Jews were accused of blood crimes, today we are accused of genocide. A system built on the ashes of the Holocaust now recycles Holocaust denial under the guise of human rights.
Why Smuts? Why Gandhi? Why Pinochet? Why the Sahel? Why Nehru? These leaders and countries both tyrants and saints influenced the establishment of the UN, its the failed ‘dream vision’ which ignores the eternal conflict conducted between Power vs. Justice. All the prophets of the T’NaCH pitted justice against avoda zara – the Human worship of power as God.
Israel never signed the Rome Statute. Therefore the ICC has no jurisdiction unless Israel consents which fundamentally profanes the post Shoah sworn oath “NEVER AGAIN”. The ICC’s maneuver relies on the fiction that “Palestine” is a state with standing. British Palestine, established by the League of Nations based upon the Balfour Declaration of 1917 ceased to exist when David Ben Gurion declared Jewish national independence and named the new country Israel in 1948.
Only in 1964 did Egyptian born Yasser Arafat embrace the name of Palestine as central to his PLO Charter. That charter did not view Jordan’s West Bank or Egypt’s Gaza as occupied territory. It limited the phrase “Occupied Territory” only to ’48 Israel. UN Resolutions 242, 338, 446, 2334 etc all political blood libel frauds. UN Resolution 3379 – Zionism is Racism – rejects the Balfour Declaration which fathered the Palestine Mandate of 1921.
Tonight begins Hanukkah.
The Total Darkness which Hanukkah Represents.
“Bringing more light to the world”, totally misses the point. Hanukkah remembers the P’rushim Tzeddukim Civil War. Jews today have forgotten the meaning and purpose of t’shuva. The Tzeddukim רשעים sought to “convert” Jerusalem into a Greek polis/city state. Assimilated Jews, both Tzeddukim and the Reshonim rabbis of Spain – rejected the revelation of the Oral Torah at Horev. Which the kabbalah of rabbi Akiva’s פרדס defines through its unique 4 part inductive reasoning logical thought process. This system of logic specifically compares Judicial Case rulings to other similiar but different Judicial Case rulings.
The Tzeddukim, sons of Aaron, had totally assimilated, no different from the rabbis of Spain during the early years of the Middle Ages when Muslim armies conquered Spain and discovered the concealed ancient Greek philosophies and mathematics which the church concealed after Constantine became emperor; hence the period known as the “Dark Ages”. Deductive syllogism logic relies upon plane geometry which limits reality to a fixed 3 dimensional world. Much like the scientific method popular among science today limits reality to empirical evidence.
The fundamental difference between the victory of the P’rushim in Judea over the assimilated T’zeddukim, to the inverse victory of assimilated rabbis in Spain, specifically the Rambam Civil War, these assimilated and intermarried Spanish rabbis, they totally embraced Greek philosophy just like as did the Tzeddukim some 1000 years earlier. Specifically the 3 part syllogism logic of deductive reasoning, which assimilated and intermarried Jews of Spain abandoned and forgot the Oral Torah.
How did these assimilated and intermarried Reshonim rabbis of Spain forget and abandon the Torah? They failed to learn inductive פרדס logic whose inductive reasoning closely resembles the dynamics of Calculus variables. Greek syllogism logic more approaches a fixed static reasoning. Something like the engineering of constructing a bridge to span a river. They perverted both T’NaCH & Talmudic judicial courtroom law into cult of personality “Legislative” statute law. Law established through courts completely different from Law established by Legislative decrees. No different from Greek and Roman statute law. This foreign alien legal system organized law into neat classifications, like as did the Rambam’s Yad Chazakah perversion of Talmudic halachot. Rather than upon Judicial Mishnaic Case/Rule courtroom rulings.
How did this radically change both T’NaCH and Talmud? Notice that the statute law halachic codifications made by the Rambam, Tur, Beit Yosef/Shulkan Aruch – they cannot and do not assist a Talmudic scholar to learn a page of Gemara. Why? The Rambam failed to attach his halachic rulings affixed to a specific Mishna like as did the B’HaG, Rif, Rosh and Baali Tosafot common law halachic codes/commentaries.
Hence by organizing Gemara halacha divorced from their most essential root Mishna – which the Gemara comments solely upon, the Rambams posok halacha – although straight from the pages of the Talmud – had no meaning as it related to a required specific root Mishna. The B’HaG, Rif and Rosh common law codifications almost ALWAYS open with the fundamentally required root Mishna upon which the Gemara halachot comment upon.
In the Talmud those halachot serve their designated essential purpose as common law judicial precedents. The Gemara interprets or re-interpret the intent/כוונה language of the root Mishna, viewed from the fixed witness perspective that these Gemarah Halachic precedents “see or view” the root Mishna, based upon a limited and defined perspective. Much like the Front, Top, Side views of a blue-print that permits a קבלן to construct a building.
Whereas the victorious P’rushim of Judea lit the lights of Chanukkah with the dedication to only interpret the intent of the Written Torah Constitution, and Sanhedrin Court common law justice system, limited only to פרדס inductive logic; the assimilated rabbis of Spain “forgot the Oral Torah” just like the blessing of Hanukkah in the midst of ברכת המזון depicts the Tzeddukim רשעים.
Jews today for the most part do not have the least bit of a clue what distinguishes פרדס logic from Greek syllogism logic. The do not grasp the essential facts that just as a loom as its warp and weft threads, so too the Talmud has its halachic and aggadic “threads”. Jews today have forgotten the Torah and therefore blown out the Hanukkah lights. Just as likewise did the assimilated and intermarried Reshonim rabbis of Spain. This dark reality exposed the lights of Hannukah which repudiated the assimilated and intermarried Tzeddukim and later Karaim g’lut Jewry.
The Rambam code caused a ירידות הדורות domino effect which permitted the Karaite rabbis to prevail over traditional common law judicial Judaism. The Karaites like their assimilated and intermarried Tzeddukim traitor fore fathers rejected the revelation of the Oral Torah on Yom Kippur at Horev 40 days after the sin of the Golden Calf. Blowing out the lights of Hanukkah worships the Golden Calf preferred religious belief systems over righteous Courtroom justice which strives to make fair compensation of damages inflicted. Hence Hanukkah today depict a reality of total darkness rather than light.
The last Torah interpretation of ”t’shuva”, requires a follow up Talmudic study-examination that addresses the same subject. Important basis of understanding: A fundamental distinction which separates the Book of בראשית from the תולדות Books of שמות, ויקרא, ובמדבר — pre-revelation of the Torah at Sinai, the Gods in the Heavens; post-revelation of the Torah at Sinai-שם השם lives only within the Yatzir Ha-Tov within the hearts of the Chosen Cohen people for eternity thereafter.
Hence when the corrupt false Messiah JeZeus taught his ‘disciples’ how to pray, this Harry Potter fictional messiah did not know the basic distinction between how the Avot called upon יה, האל, אל, אלהים, אל שדי, או איש האלהים – all these Divine Names of the bnai brit soul, they thrive in the Heavens above, or עולם הבא; for example Avram cut the brit between the pieces with אל שדי touching the future born birth of all his children, but most specifically his chosen first born Cohen children – all of whom lived only in the world to come in Heaven.
Post Sinai: the שם השם – (דברים ל) — לא בשמים היא, instructs a radically Sinai “shock” distinction. Post Sinai the local tribal god of the chosen Cohen people rules only within the borders of the promised land – the eternal inheritance of the chosen Cohen people alone; the jurisdiction of the Great Sanhedrin – likewise limited and restricted to within the borders of the 12 Tribe Cohen Republic; and despite the farcical false prophet Muhammad which taught that prophets sent to all peoples and nations, and these prophets speak in the native tongues of ‘all peoples and nations’, this fraud denies the simple Talmudic understanding that only the 12 Tribes of Israel accepted the Revelation of the Torah at Sinai. The proof for the Talmud’s instruction: Goyim pray to their Universal Gods who live in the Heavens.
The fictional Harry Potter false messiah of the noise NT fraud taught his “disciples”: Matthew 6:9-13 – Our Farter in Heaven; the NT: a Protocols of the Elders of Zion – Roman fraud counterfeit because of its complete and total ignorance of the revelation of the Torah at Sinai which makes an eternal הבדלה distinction between how pre-Sinai Avot prophets called upon their local tribal god in heaven; from how the post Sinai – the chosen Cohen eternal seed of the Avot – call upon the exact same but different local tribal god, who dwells only in the Earth. This fundamental תורה עיקרי distinction, the stinky Noise NT Roman authors did not know that pre-Sinai our local god lived in the Heavens whereas post Sinai our local god lives only within the Yatzir Ha-Tov within the heart; according to how rabbi Yechuda Ha’Nasi explains the k’vanna of קריא שמע תפילה דאורייתא.
The primary Talmudic locus for t’shuva is Masechet Yoma, which dissects Yom Kippur’s atonement mechanics but roots them in the post-Sinai heart. T’shuva “remembers”: A) the sworn oaths wherein the Avot cut a oath alliance brit touching the future born birth of the Chosen Cohen children of the Avot. Each Av swore a unique oath to cut the identical oath alliance brit which תמיד מעשה בראשית creates the Chosen Cohen People יש מאין על ידי את החכמה של זימן גרמא מצוות שנזקוק כוונה. Toldot positive and negative Torah commandments and Talmudic halachot do not require k’vanna. However employing these secondary commandments and halachot as בניני אבות precedents to other Torah commandments, this action raises/elevates these secondary commandments to primary time-oriented commandments. Based upon the precedent distinction which separates the Divine Names wherein the Avot of the Book of בראשית prayed to their local god in the heavens to the שם השם Sinai revelation wherein the local god of the Chosen Cohen seed of the Avot lives within the Yatzir-Tov of the heart. B) HaShem on Yom Kippur annulled His vow to profane the Torah oath alliance cut with the Avot, and establish Moshe Rabbeinu as the Father of the chosen Cohen people. Herein the Torah differentiates between oaths which neither HaShem nor Man can cancel; opposed by Vow which both Man & HaShem can annul.
T’shuva’s primary Talmudic locus in Masechet Yoma (especially 86a-b), where Resh Lakish’s teachings—”Great is t’shuva, for intentional sins become unintentional” (via fear) and “intentional sins become merits” (via love/ahavah)—embody post-Sinai heart-work. T’shuva “remembers” in two layers. The sworn oaths cut by the Avot – as contained withing the opening p’suk of קריא שמע tefillah as contrasted by Tehillem prayers, this chochmah of זמן גרמא מצוות distinct and apart from toldot prayers, commandments and halachot.
Tefillah – opens with שמע wherein אלהים separates HaShem from HaShem; wherein Israel accepts the yoke of the kingdom of Heaven-the Written and Oral Torah revelations at Sinai & Horev. Tehillem prayers do not require k’vanna because they do not qualify as time-oriented commandments as does tefillat kre’a shma. Translating the רוח הקודש שם השם to other words, regardless יה, האל, אל, אלהים, אל שדי, איש האלהים, JeZeus, or Allah etc, precisely duplicates the Av tumah avoda zarah of the Sin of the Golden Calf wherein the ערב רב שאין להם יראת אלהים translated Elohim for the רוח הקודש שם השם לשמה.
Yom Kippur, framing teshuva as an internal, post-Sinai act that “remembers” the Avot’s oaths—sworn alliances creating the Cohen people yesh me’ayin (from nothing) through chochma of zman grama mitzvot, which demand kavana to align the heart’s yetzer ha-tov with the Sinai revelation. Resh Lakish teaches: “Great is teshuva, for it causes intentional sins to be reckoned as unintentional” (when motivated by fear/yirah), and “intentional sins to be reckoned as merits” (when from love/ahava)—embodying the heart’s return that heals backsliding (Hosea 14:5). This duality reflects post-Sinai immanence: teshuva from love fully integrates sins into the yetzer ha-tov’s divine spark, unlike pre-Sinai external britot (e.g., Avram’s with El Shaddai, touching future heavenly seed). Contradictions in verses (e.g., “Return, backsliding children, I will heal” vs. “I will heal their backsliding”) resolve as love (erasing sin as if never occurred) versus fear (healing but remembering sin), or even teshuva compelled by suffering.
Yoma 86b’s baraita categorizes atonement introduces other interpretations of t’shuva based upon the kabbalah of ישעיהו כב:יד, מט:ג וגם ויקרא טז:ל. Based upon the floods of Noach profaning a Torah oath threatens the existence of the entire World. Discernment defines judgment. The dedication of a barbeque unto Heaven – the rejected offering made by Cain – the rejected first born Cohen son. Korbanot, like tefillah require שם ומלכות – an oath sworn dedication of Oral Torah middot לשמה. Ideally the tefillah oath sworn while standing before a Sefer Torah; whereas the korban the שם ומלכות Torah oath sworn while standing before the altar. Obviously if a person lacks the חכמה which discerns between the k’vanna distinctions that separates ה’ from ה’ from אל from רחום from חנון etc, such an עם הארץ lacks k’vanna just as a person who observes Shabbat but fails to discern – not doing acts of מלאכה on the day of Shabbat dedicates doing these חכמה מלאכות throughout the 6 days of Shabbat. Doing mitzvot as מלאכה defines the k’vanna of time-oriented commandments which create מלאכים in the Heavens. The creation of מלאכים through tohor time-oriented Av commandments defines the intent of מגן אברהם.
Rabbi Eliezer calls upon a Bat Kol from heaven. This Mishna of כלים addresses the most complex and difficult subject in the whole of the Sha’s Bavli – tohor vs tumah. Rabbi Meir perhaps the most profound authority on this exceptionally difficult subject; ; שם מ”ב – האל – removes av tuma avoda zara spirits from the Yatzir Ha-Raw, similar to חמץ on Pesach. Rabban Gamliel showed a tuma lack of respect to both rabbi Meir – capable of adducing 48 proofs for purity or impurity on any matter, Eruvin 13b – by expunging his Name from the Mishna and Rabbi Yehoshua – which broke the camel’s back and caused the Nassi’s own public humiliation of being replaced as Sanhedrin head. Rabbi Yehoshua understood רשות as a Torah חיוב כוונה.
The dispute between Rashi & Rabbeinu Tam appearance of 3 stars vs. פלג המנחה defines the distinction which separates how Rabban Gamliel vs. rabbi Yehoshua interpreted the k’vanna of רשות. Tefillah דאורייתא – Kre’a Shma. This tefillah ideally a person sits while wearing tefillen. Tefillen like a Sefer Torah in matters of swearing oaths. Rabbi Yehoshua understood תפילת ערבית as a רשות mitzva. Meaning the k’vanna of saying קריא שמע ערבית בזמן של פלג המנחה – its still day, therefore a person has רשות to place tefillen and affix the Kre’a Shma ערבית to the מנחה Shemone Esrei, and the ערבית תפילה to the קריא שמע המיטה, said prior to sleeping; at that time for sure 3 stars have appeared in the Heavens.
This ties into t’shuva because נידוי learns from ger tzeddik. Where the ger tzeddik qualifies as a tohor new creation’ so too the person placed into the curse of נידוי too qualifies as a “tuma new creation”. For example, if a רשע refuses to give his ex-wife her Get, a Torah court could place the curse of נידוי upon that arrogant man, who publicly profanes his קידושין made before kosher witnesses and a minyan of 10 men, and issue a Get to the enchained ex-wife. Gittin 88b: Courts may compel a get, even with rods if needed. ר”א died in cherem, so this Torah curse not limited to 30 days, shamata, like a standard nazir vow.
The Sages burned his tahor declarations and excommunicated him for not yielding; he remained isolated, with his death marked by final words of “tahor” (Sanhedrin 68a; various aggadic accounts). Post-death, Rabbi Yehoshua revoked the ban, affirming his ultimate purity (tearing garments in mourning). This shows nidui can function as a lifelong “curse” for profound communal threats, yet teshuva (or posthumous recognition) restores. The court may authorize agents to issue the get if he persists (Yevamot 90a; Ketubot 77a).
Earthly courts wield nidui as a tool of coercion and transformation, annulling vows/oaths of profanation within Israel’s borders—rejecting heavenly appeals (as in Rabbi Eliezer’s bat kol) while restoring the yetzer ha-tov’s divine spark. Rabbi Eliezer’s enduring nidui until death highlights the gravity of refusing communal authority, yet his story ends in purity, affirming teshuva’s ultimate triumph.
The study of literature learns through compare and contrast.
Torah common law not to be confused with Xtian and Muslim religious theology wherein both religions created their Gods, from the Nicene Creed to Islam’s strict Monotheism Universal God. The Book of Yonah compares to the Book of Job. Both address the destruction of g’lut. The Assyrian empire conquered by the Babylonian empire shortly after Yonah. Torah common law not a religion – bottom line. During the Dark Ages period of the Crusades Jews favored to convert Torah judicial common law courts into a Codified statute law religion strikingly similar to the Catholic church during its scholastic period during this time period.
The kabbalah concept of שכינה makes a סוד opaque – concealment of light – reference to the Sinai revelation of the שם השם wherein Torah permanently revealed as the revelation of this local tribal god in this world. The construction of the Mishkan, likewise another Torah revelation at Sinai to this precise same impact. The 13 tohor middot revealed at Horev following the Golden Calf, rabbi Yochanon taught the סוד opaque kabbalah that all ברכות צריך שם ומלכות; meaning that swearing a Torah oath לשמה requires the sanctification of Oral Torah middot or מלכות. Hence the Shemone Esrei contains 3 + 13 + 3 blessings – תרי”ג; Six Yom Tov + Shabbat – the opening and closing three blessings and the 13 chol and one shabbat blessing(s) refer to the direction of future social behavior through some dedicated tohor middah. Herein defines the K’vanna of all korbanot dedications.
The distinctions in Divine names (e.g., El Shaddai for the patriarchs vs. the Tetragrammaton at Sinai) underscore this shift: the patriarchs experienced God through promises and personal encounters, but Sinai revealed a national, judicial common law legalism. Justice the one word definition of Freedom from Egyptian slavery and invasion of Canaan לשמה.
Law as a “guardian” (παιδαγωγός, often translated as tutor or schoolmaster) until faith in Christ arrives misrepresents Torah as temporary or punitive, rather than an eternal system of pursuing justice. The Sinai revelation no more waits upon JeZeus than do Jews today. Torah functions as the Constitutional mandate of Sanhedrin common law ‘legislative review’ courtroom law. דברים טז:כ – the command to pursue justice actively through courts and ethical behavior. This shares no common ground with: get “Saved & baptized in the name of JeZeus.”
he Torah’s blessings and curses (e.g., ויקרא כו) – tied to ruling the land with justice, uprooting Canaanite avoda zara; meaning to prevent assimilation (ערב רב) and intermarriage. Amalek in all generations the consequences of Jewish assimilation and intermarriage.
The Book of Shemuel addresses the subject of Moshiach for the first time? No. Such a טיפש פשט fails to grasp that the NaCH Prophets and Holy Writings serve as hand maidens to the Kallah Torah bride; Moshe the greatest of the Prophets. Moshe anointed the House of Aaron as Moshiach; Penchas lead the warriors against the king of Moav who hired Bil’aam to curse Israel as משיח מלחמה. The entire purpose of korbanot to dedicate צדק צדק תרדוף as the definition of Torah faith.
Confusing the forms of faith for the substance of faith turned the heart of king Shlomo to worship avoda zara. The “temple” not some grand Catholic Cathedral but Federal Sanhedrin Courtroom common law wherein the Cities of Refuge serve as the spokes of Federal law courts across the land. The Talmud Chagigah 13a warns against excessive speculation concerning the kabbalah of time-oriented commandments expressed through מלאכה wisdom to create from nothing Angels/מלאכים. Even simple mitzvot with kavanah become time-oriented, the “Crown of Torah” (Shabbat 127a).
The Rambam’s critique in Moreh Nevuchim 1:50-54, where he argues that Divine names reflect attributes of action in this world, not metaphysical essences causes my soul to retch; the Book of בראשית – before the revelation of the Torah at Sinai לשמה. The first commandment Name רוח הקודש, whereas all other Divine Names – words. A fundamental רב חסד מאי נפקא מינא fundamental error made by assimilated to Greek logic rather than פרדס logic – Rambam. Assimilation and intermarriage defines the Yonah/Job\Daniel collapse of the Golden Age of Spain. Rambam’s code negated the charem of the Karaim deniers of the Oral Torah on par with the Tzeddukim during the Chanukkah Civil War!
Thomas Aquinas’ Summa Theologica stands as the Catholic equivalent to the Rambam’s horrid Yad Chazaka. Mishna Torah means common law. Rambam’s assimilated Roman law codification – statute law! Another רב חסד מאי נפקא מינא fundamental error. The study of Talmud actively requires the compare and contrast of the different middot (ancient Egyptian bricks) building blocks developed by the Tannaim scholars and employed by all Amoraim scholarship upon the Mishna common law Case/Rule judicial codification made by rabbi Yechuda Ha’Nassi.
The Yalkut Shimoni on Iyov learns that Holy Writing T’NaCH primary source commentary to the Books of the Prophets similar to Gemara’s relationship to the Mishna; it links Iyov’s afflictions to a microcosm of Israel’s exiles, teaching that restoration comes through pursuing justice, not theological resignation.
The Zohar (Shemot 2:216b) describes the שם השם ציוי ראשון as light hidden in vessels, revealed through the Mishkan’s construction. HaShem לא בשמים היא – rather the Spirit Divine Presence Shekinah breathes within the Yatzir Ha-Tov of the heart – תפילה הדבר שבלב and not a Father and Son in Heaven. The prophets sometime inverse the Order of the Oral Torah middot רחום וחנון, based upon the כלל פרט כנגד רבוי מיעט Egyptian bricks made from straw. חנון expansive the next series of middot serve as definitions of חנון. Whereas רחום restricts based upon the commandment concerning treatment of the people of Canaan, the stubborn and rebellious son, Amalek, and Torah blessings & curses. Bottom line: do not confuse mercy with pity.
Korbanot exist only as time oriented commandments which require k’vanna – the opposite of Cains sacrifice! Yeshayahu 1:11-17, HaShem rejects offerings without מלכות Oral Torah middot dedications. Its not the form of living blood that a korban dedicates but rather the substance of the dedication of Horev Oral Torah tohor middot!
Chagigah 13a warns against speculating on ma’aseh bereishit (creation) or merkavah (chariot) mysticism, read through the simplistic טיפש פשט of literal word for word translations. Torah instructs through משל\נמשל rational discipline; Joseph interpreted dreams. Dreams which lack an interpretation compare to a letter never opened and read. Torah common law does not compare to a Harry Potter work of fiction that simple minded children can read and enjoy. Torah common law stands upon the יסוד of בניני אבות-precedents. Talmudic precedents function as logical proofs based upon the understanding that Talmud as 70 faces like the facets of a diamond!
Sefer בראשית together with its Divine Names – pre Sinai. Just that simple. No fancy dance’n. The לשמה Sinai brit, this Divine Spirit lives within the hearts of the chosen Cohen People. Goyim pray to their Gods who dwell in the Heavens. Rambam’s rationalism, influenced by Aristotelian Greek logic, sidelines the פרדס (Pardes) hermeneutic organized into a warp\weft threads of דרוש\פשט – the Aggadah. And רמז/סוד – the Halacha. פרדס inductive logic which conducts a compare and contrast T’NaCH prophetic mussar to halacha which serves as precedents ie a unique perspective by which scholars re-interpret the language intent of the Mishna based upon this בנין אב logical comparison of Case/Rule to similar but different Case\Rule judicial rulings.
A Three-Man Torts Court divides the justices of the Court. One judge assigned as the Prosecuting attorney. The second judge as the Defense attorney. The Difficulty/Answer style of the Gemara edited to communicate this model for a future Sanhedrin Court room once Jews re-conquered the oath brit Home land. T’NaCH\Talmudic inductive logic as far removed from Greek philosophy deductive logic as the lights of Hanukkah despise the T’zeddukim attempts to cause Israel to forget the Oral Torah and also turn Jerusalem into a Greek polis!
Yonah Gerondi wrote Shaarei Teshuva after the disaster of 1242 burning of all Talmudic manuscripts across France in Paris bon-fires. Gerondi duplicated the error of the brothers Hashmonaim who requested that Pompey resolve their dynastic dispute during a prior Hanukkah Civil War some 1000 years previous. The Jewish Civil War witness not only the destruction of the common law Rashi/Tosafot school – all Jews expelled from France in 1306.
But it generated chaos and anarchy that disrupted Jewish refugee exposed nakedness before Goyim enemies; the king of England first imposed taxation without representation then expelled all Jews in 1290. The German kingdoms likewise robbed plundered and made forced population transfers. Pauperization of Jews cause the Vatican decree of ghetto gulah imprisonment of all Western European Jewry which in its turn caused another mass population transfer of Jews from Western to Eastern Europe. Then came the 1648 Cossack pogroms!
Rambam’s code, while brilliant for impoverished g’lut refugee populations scattered across Western Europe during the dying days of the Dark Ages, its inherent corruption – flattened T’NaCH Talmudic common Case\Din law into Aristotelian categories, akin to Aquinas’ fusion of faith and reason egg-crate dogmatism, which the Baal HaMaor cricized the Rif common law code and later the Vilna Gaon critiqued the Rambam’s Yechuda jumping into the Sea of Reeds emphasis on religious codification observance of halacha prioritized over Talmudic depth of inductive פרדס logic; the k’vanna of lighting the lights of Hanukkah.
As mentioned above, the Yalkut Shimoni on Iyov (Remez 906) indeed frames Iyov’s sufferings as a microcosm of Israel’s exiles—from Egypt to Babylon to Rome—teaching that geulah demands active pursuit of justice (צדק), not passive theological surrender. This midrashic commentary functions unto Gemara Aggada: a primary lens on NaCH (Prophets and Writings), linking personal affliction to national t’shuva. Restoration not through resignation, but rather courtroom equity – echoing Devarim 16:20’s mandate.
Tefillah is דבר שבלב (matter of the heart, Berachot :כו) rejects Tehillem prayers as comparable to tefillah oaths; Jews do not pray to any Father-Son duality in the Heavens. Yeshayahu 1:11-17 condemns form without substance: HaShem spurns blood offerings absent מלכות (kingdom)—Oral Torah middot from Horev. The dedication isn’t animal life but tohor attributes, elevating the act to the Torah’s crown (Shabbat 127a). This aligns with the Zohar’s vessel metaphor: external form holds inner light of middot.
Substance vs. Form … נמשל כנגד משל. Confusing the metaphor of the golden Ark for its Oral Torah interpretation as taught in the Book of D’varim 5th Book of the Torah 30:12 – השם “לא בשמים היא”.
The Talmud instructs that the mitzva of tefillah stands different from avoda zara prayer in that tefillah a matter of the heart while Goyim prayer to their God directed unto Heaven. Herein explains how the “story” of the Tabernacle and its vessels differentiates from the Names of God in the first Book of the Torah from the revelation of God at Sinai. Just as Moshe the most humble of all men – based upon HaShem the most humble of the Gods!
HaShem a local tribal god which only Israel accepted at Sinai to this very day. Post Sinai HaShem dwells within the Yatzir Ha-Tov within the hearts of Israel the chosen Cohen people alone. All other Gods live in the Heavens above. Hence the Torah says that Avraham called unto his god by the name El Shaddai and did not know the Name HaShem because he lived before the revelation of the Torah at Sinai.
An addition to the previous — A comprehensive Jewish polemic against the theological foundations of Xtianity and Islam. Where was JeZeus throughout the Shoah? Where was Allah throughout the Nakba total defeat disasters of ’48, ’67, & most recently the 12 Day War?
1. Peter claims that through JeZeus, significant miracles occur, thereby validating his role as a miracle worker and messianic figure… this serves as zero proof of the mitzva of Moshiach according to the Torah. Moshiach based upon King Shaul and David and all the kings of Yechuda and Israel thereafter has nothing to do with healing miracle workers as the definition of the Torah mitzva of Moshiach.
The prophet Natan issued a mussar prophetic rebuke to king David when he contemplated the possibility to duplicate how the Goyim worshipped their Gods through construction of Great Cathedrals. The Torah “Temple” which king David commanded his son Shlomo to build – not a literal wood and stone building. Rather the establishment of the Torah Constitutional mandate of Sanhedrin Federal common law courtrooms across Jerusalem and the cities of refuge. The last mitzva which Moshe Rabbeinu sanctified: Moshe constructed three Cities of Refuges/Small Sanhedrin courtrooms on the other side of the Jordan river. Moshe did not build a Goyim manner of worship Temple. The revelation of the Mishkan teaches the mussar that HaShem lives in the hearts of the chosen Cohen people through tohor middot spirits. Hence the p’suk: שמות: כה:ח — ועשו לי מקדש ושכנתי בתוכם — prioritizes the vision that HaShem through the revelation of Oral Torah tohor middot quickens the Yatzir Ha-Tov with life through all the generations of Israel upon this Earth. This vision has nothing to do with the NT “salvation from sin” substitute theology.
2. The NT fails to address the central act of rebellion when Israel demanded from the prophet Shmuel a king, when HaShem through the Sinai brit ruled as KING. Recall that Israel requested a king to lead the nation to fight its wars. The bait N’ switch to the topic of “salvation” therefore exists as classic substitute theology. Revisionist history defines the NT like Holocaust Denial defines modern anti-Semitism. Specifically, the NT introduces a theology of a Universal God. This alien foreign idea has nothing to do with the Sinai revelation because Goyim rejected the Torah and do not accept the Torah to this very day.
The deliverance from Egyptian bondage and conquering of Canaan – these fundamental “miracles” serve as the basis for Israel to rule conquered Canaan with justice as a total repudiation of Par’o judicial injustice to Israel. Torah prophesy centers upon mussar rebukes which all generations can grow as their own ideas sprouting from within their Yatzir Ha-Tov spirits breathing within their hearts. The NT shares no connection whatsoever toward achieving the justice leadership of HaShem in this world through the Torah mandate of Federal Sanhedrin common law courtrooms.
Both the NT and Koran attempt to replace the oath brit which defines Torah as the Written Constitution of the Cohen Republic. They both attempt to establish a theological backdrop wherein Torah prophesy applies to all Goyim Universally. These attempts reject the revelation of the Torah at Sinai but seek thereafter to worship their Name God replacements as substitutes for HaShem taking Israel alone out of Egypt. Such theological revisionist history substitutes other Universal Gods for the local god which only Israel accepted at Sinai. Miraculous miracle workers do not replace the prophetic mussar visions established through the T’NaCH literature which the NT attempts to replace with the label “Old Testament”.
3. Declaring the ‘Good News’ of the Name of JeZeus has no T’NaCH precedent. Torah a common law legality which stands upon the foundation of precedents. No courtroom objectively examines (prosecutor vs. defense legal briefs) any courtroom case based upon the “Name of JeZeus”. Hence the challenge to Judicial common law courtroom practices – simply a red herring. The Written Torah serve the chief function as the Constitution of the Republic of Judea which mandates Sanhedrin common law courtrooms. No different than the US Constitution mandates 3 branches of Government. By emphasizing the miraculous events attributed to JeZeus as the Son of God, this substitute theology replaces oath brit cut with Avraham Yitzak and Yaacov to father the chosen Cohen people.
The Written Torah serves as the legal constitution for the Jewish people, establishing a system grounded in established precedents and judicial proceedings. The NT does not provide this framework or engage with it meaningfully. Most significantly: the NT emphasis upon the Divine Name of JeZeus worships a new God which the Avot did not know.
The Written Torah functions analogously to a constitution, establishing a system of laws that courts operate upon, thus framing the concept of justice within a concrete legal structure. The absence of any NT precedent in this regard significantly undermines its claims. The NT pivot to a new Universal Trinity God contradicts the specific oath britot cut through the Torah alliance established by Avraham Yitzak and Yaacov.
4. Miracles as “signs” do not prove or disprove the mitzva of Moshiach. Moshe anointed Aaron as Moshiach. Aaron dedicated korbanot/sacrifices NOT as some Cain-like “Barbeque to Heaven”, but rather based upon the k’vanna of Hevel whose korban dedicated the sanctification through swearing an oath to pursue justice in this world. Justice: defined through both T’NaCH & Talmudic common law – as the legal pursuit of justice/fair compensation of damages as the intent of the Torah commandment: “Eye for an Eye and tooth for a tooth”. Legal judicial justice rejects as טיפש פשט-utter bird brained stupidity-any literal reading for “Eye for an Eye”!
The sacrifices are not simply ritualistic acts. They are deeply intertwined with the intent (k’vanna) to pursue justice and right wrongs, differentiating them from mere offerings. This highlights a legal and ethical framework wherein Moshe first anointed the House of Aaron as Moshiach; it explains the connection between the revelation of the Mishkan with the pursuit of judicial justice through logically juxtaposing the Torah mitzva of sacrifices against the Torah mitzva to pursue justice.
The understanding of korbanot not as mere rituals but as essential acts tied to the pursuit of justice brings a critical perspective on their religious significance. The intentionality behind these actions (k’vanna) focuses on justice and ethical behavior which has nothing to do with the NT “forgiveness of sin as the salvation of Mankind”.
