  Mizrahi Inspiration Sheer #13. Pay attention the next time you
• 0:07
  duffen in the morning. Look how many times we mention
• 0:12
  the concept of Goulah of redemption, Personal redemption
• 0:16
  in the army. The national redemption.
• 0:20
  We say every day, three times a day in our land of the Chabert,
• 0:23
  that we're here, that I can or lambe makot shakai.
• 0:26
  We're here to perfect the world under the Kingdom of the
• 0:29
  Almighty. So this week we're going to look
• 0:32
  at these concepts of Goula, of redemption and Galo to exile.
• 0:36
  The thrust of the Torah, our doverning and our Jews.
• 0:39
  Day, our daily life point towards redemption, redemption
• 0:43
  of the Jewish people and in its wake, the redemption of the
• 0:46
  whole world. What is the purpose of and we
• 0:48
  say this in Rosh Hashani, Yom Kipur.
• 0:50
  It's the whole thrust of our doverning that there should be a
• 0:53
  global awareness of Hashem. That's what we've done for now.
• 1:01
  That is going to throw up a number of challenges for us,
• 1:04
  especially those of us living outside of the land of Israel.
• 1:09
  So number one, we should note we should learn to have TV or the
• 1:11
  cook that good. Our redemption was occurring in
• 1:14
  our times. It was coming to fruition in the
• 1:16
  Jewish people's return to the land of Israel, with the
• 1:19
  restoration of Israeli sovereignty over the land, and
• 1:23
  generally this return to Tora study, which we've seen in our
• 1:28
  times. All of these bring Gurula closer
• 1:32
  because it brings a vision of Hashem closer, or it ought to.
• 1:36
  Obviously any one of these details can be corrupted, which
• 1:39
  is always going to be a challenge.
• 1:43
  The challenge for many of us is to see the State of Israel not
• 1:46
  merely as a holiday destination, a place to have fun, but as our
• 1:51
  ultimate true home and the places that we live around the
• 1:55
  world. This is where we are visiting
• 1:57
  temporarily with the ultimate aim of returning home.
• 2:01
  Let's go back further in time. False messiahs, disappointed
• 2:06
  messianic hopes. I remember as a child during the
• 2:09
  Gulf War back in the 19 early 1990s, there were people saying,
• 2:14
  oh, this is the end, Mashiach is coming.
• 2:17
  When it didn't happen, there was so many disappointed people,
• 2:21
  well closer to our times when all the aeroplanes were parked
• 2:24
  neatly in the airports and there was no flights during COVID.
• 2:28
  And many people were. I don't know where they get the
• 2:31
  ideas from because clearly they're not prophets, but lots
• 2:35
  of people were suggesting that the airplanes were just ready to
• 2:38
  take the Jewish people back home.
• 2:40
  Then that didn't happen either. So these types of foolish
• 2:46
  pronouncements by people who don't know anything alienate us
• 2:50
  from a true understanding of what salvation of what Gurula is
• 2:53
  all about. So in the in the teaching of
• 2:58
  rough Cook, let's learn a little bit.
• 3:00
  The Gurula redemption, he said, stands in contrast to the
• 3:03
  Gallut, our exile from the land of Israel.
• 3:05
  Gurula is the opposite of gallut.
• 3:07
  What is Gallut? It's an aberration.
• 3:10
  For instance, in our normal state we need to be here.
• 3:13
  The entire nation of Israel, in the land of Israel and all of
• 3:16
  Eretz Israel needs to be in our hands.
• 3:19
  Thank God Hashem's light is now shining upon us and increasing
• 3:23
  little by little in gradual stages.
• 3:25
  But how different things were before the establishment of the
• 3:28
  state of Israel when we were outside the land and the non Jew
• 3:32
  Jews were in it and the possibility for a Jew to enter
• 3:36
  the land rested in foreign hands.
• 3:39
  This was a time of gallut. We've progressed a bit since
• 3:42
  then and are returning to a normal condition.
• 3:45
  Eretz Israel is now in our hands.
• 3:47
  Jerusalem is now in our hands. We are now independent.
• 3:51
  The process unfolds in stages. Just as Hashem can bring the
• 3:58
  redemption through miracles, He can do it without miracles in a
• 4:01
  simpler way, through a natural process, via the conquest and
• 4:04
  settlement of the land of Israel.
• 4:06
  The redemption which is unfolding before us appears in
• 4:09
  stages, not all at once. I think there's a tendency we
• 4:13
  want to somehow TuneIn to news at 10 and then the headlines are
• 4:17
  like, you know, with the big, the bells from Big Ben saying
• 4:21
  boom, the Jews were right, the machine has arrived.
• 4:25
  I think people want this huge magic trick to appear rather
• 4:29
  than being able to see it stage by stage by stage.
• 4:32
  We will continue Biz Ratashem tomorrow.
• 4:34
  Have a very lovely day.
