As Easter approaches, many evangelical Christians prepare to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ, the cornerstone of our faith. Yet, in recent decades, a growing number of churches and believers have adopted practices borrowed from Jewish tradition, most notably the Passover Seder. Promoted as a way to connect with the "roots" of Christianity, Seder observance has gained traction, particularly among those influenced by premillennial dispensationalism—a theological framework that emphasizes a distinct role for Israel in God’s plan. While the intention may be to honor biblical history, this practice raises serious concerns. Talmudic Judaism, which underpins the modern Seder, is...

” Seder observance has gained traction, particularly among those influenced by premillennial dispensationalism”
The only people I’ve met personally who have bought into observance of it are all Catholics. Catholicism is very Jewish, and that’s not a good thing. Catholicism invented Exclusive Psalmody in the 4th century at a council that banned all the hymns Christians had written up to that point and said only the Book of Psalms may be sung. I find it ironic, and interesting, and I’m developing an argument on this, but it requires a lot of thought, and maybe historical research, is that Paul says Peter is the apostle to the Jews and he Paul to the Gentiles , in Galatians 2:6-9, where Paul says that the Pillars make a handshake agreement with him:
“6 As for those who were held in high esteem—whatever they were makes no difference to me; God does not show favoritism—they added nothing to my message. 7 On the contrary, they recognized that I had been entrusted with the task of preaching the gospel to the uncircumcised,[a] just as Peter had been to the circumcised.[b] 8 For God, who was at work in Peter as an apostle to the circumcised, was also at work in me as an apostle to the Gentiles. 9 James, Cephas[c] and John, those esteemed as pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship when they recognized the grace given to me. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised.”
Now, we see in the 2nd century, Polycarp is claimed to be a “direct disciple of John” and to apparently observe the passover, whereas Anicetus is descended from a theological line from a different apostle (Paul maybe) and does not observe the passoever but rather Easter Sunday, and this causes some disagreement and confusion. This seems to only be a continuation of the mess going on in Paul’s own time, where the apostles split into two factions, one focused on the circumcision and one on the uncircumcision. And it would seem that Roman Catholicism is a continuation of the circumcision faction; they’ve dropped circumcision by now, but kept a Judaizing and legalistic disposition.

God put an end to judaizing Christians and their false doctrine at the same time he fulfilled Jesus’ prophesy of taking the Kingdom of God from Israel (Matthew 21:43) and destroying their bloody sacrifices that God told them hundreds of years before made him sick. all in 70AD
Many kelvinators are into the heresy of replacement theology. Hence the Protestia article. I guess they think eggs and bunnies are better. Eggs and bunnies, eggs and bunnies.

John MacArthur is not long for this world, so hopefully he repents of his Zionist heresy and his Calvinist heresy before his quickly approaching death, and hopefully with a public recantation.. He said himself, he’s “on his last lap.”

Eggs and bunnies seem to come from a response to the legalism of Catholicism in its Lent restrictions. In Luther’s time, the papacy had banned eating eggs or any meant for all 40 days of Lent, as well as butter. Now days, of course, due to Protestantism existing, Catholicism no longer demands abstinence from meat for all 40 days of Lent, nor is there any mention of abstinence from eggs or butter. Instead, today, they require abstinence from meat only on Fridays in Lent, and a fast on Thursday and Friday (coming up this week) where you are only allowed to eat 2 meals. But in Luther’s day, no meat was to be consumed from Ash Wednesday until Easter Lunch, nor any eggs. So what do you think people did on Easter Sunday? They celebrated the end of the fast the pope had imposed by eating meat and eggs. But what meat would be available? Bunnies. Because they could not go hunt during Holy Week, so no deer would be available, etc. But if they had caught some rabbits at the beginning of Lent, they will have multiplied during Lent, and so Easter Lunch consisted of bunny and eggs.
As to observing a passover seder; we were not brought out of Egypt, so its a lie to do. We should be observing Christ’s death and resurrection, and it makes the most sense to do it the Sunday following passover, as that’s when he rose. And I dare say, modern scholarship has shown, to the satisfaction of 99% of Jews, that the Exodus from Egypt is a fictionalized account celebrating their exodus from Babylon after the Babylonian captivity, so Jews don’t even any longer believe the Exodus took place. Therefore, they celebrate it only as an ethnic observance but not as a true religious festival, for they no longer believe God brought them out of Egypt. From my perspective as a real, non-Judaized Christian, it doesn’t matter if they’re right; if the Exodus never happened, it doesn’t matter, as what matters is Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection. Certainly we Gentiles were not brought out of Egypt with a high hand and so on, and so eating bitter herbs to remember a slavery in Egypt that we never experience is silly, but if the Jews are right on their own history in asserting that it never happened to them either, then its doubly silly to observe that. Instead we should observe what Christ did for us.
And those of us who are of European descent, and are Protestants, can also observe not only Christ’s salvation of us by his death and resurrection, but also the Reformation’s liberation of us from the Lent fasting rules of the papacy of Luther’s time, by eating bunnies and eggs, even if we now only eat them in token form as chocolate.
Two things. The Passover is a clear picture of Christ. The last supper was a Passover meal. Romans 11:1 is very clear about future Israel as well as Zechariah 8:23. This is what happens when every scripture is filtered through the heresy of Calvinism.
Replacement theology predates Calvinism by 2000 years, and was held by everyone until Joseph Smith invented Christian Zionism in (I think its 2nd Nephi, or maybe 3rd Nephi) in the Book of Mormon. Its literally not until the 1800s that Christian Zionism spreads, and it spreads first among Mormon, via the Book of Mormon that first helped spread it, and then later non-Mormon picked it up from the Mormons and spread it, namely Scofield and Darby, and others. And yet, even so, until youtube came to exist in around 2004, the majority position of all Christian churches was still Replacement Theology, even as having a hymnal and either piano or organ was still the norm. Then an Internet meme was invented in 2004 and pushed by women on youtube, that “Replacement Theology is heresy,” and around the same time was brought in the rock concert “worship.” But keep teaching Mormonism if you want. Specifically, Joseph Smith taught in the Book of Mormon, that the Gentiles are tasked by God with gathering together all the Jews and restoring them to the land of Israel, and this is what all the dispies basically now believe, that God has tasked us with restoring the Jews to Israel and that once we do then Jesus will return.
And when I say “Replacement theology predates Calvinism by 2000 years” I didn’t make a mistake, because you will say that Calvinism dates from 1500, so from 30 AD to 1500 AD is not 2000 years. I’m counting from Isaiah and Hosea, who taught that the Gentiles will replace the Jews, as Paul quotes in Romans 9:25-32
“25 As he says in Hosea:
“I will call them ‘my people’ who are not my people;
and I will call her ‘my loved one’ who is not my loved one,”[a]
26 and,
“In the very place where it was said to them,
‘You are not my people,’
there they will be called ‘children of the living God.’”[b]
27 Isaiah cries out concerning Israel:
“Though the number of the Israelites be like the sand by the sea,
only the remnant will be saved.
28 For the Lord will carry out
his sentence on earth with speed and finality.”[c]
29 It is just as Isaiah said previously:
“Unless the Lord Almighty
had left us descendants,
we would have become like Sodom,
we would have been like Gomorrah.”[d]”
Paul understands Hosea’s prophecy, not as about the lost 10 tribes as Judaizers do, but as about the Gentiles.
Also, Paul is clear that although all Gentiles potentially can be saved, only a fraction of the Jews can be, for even if Israel numbers like the sand of the sea, only a small remnant can be saved from Israel. But of the Gentiles, there is no limit.
And of this subject about only a small remnant of Israel being able to be saved, Paul speaks of the Lord “cutting the work short quickly”, or “quickly executing the decree” (however you think it should be translated), meaning, he will save the remnant quickly (i.e. in the first century) and then cut Israel off. This happened in 70 AD.
I forgot to include the text of 30-32 which clarifies Paul’s interpretation of these passages from Hosea and Isaiah, where he explains their meaning:
“30 What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith; 31 but the people of Israel, who pursued the law as the way of righteousness, have not attained their goal. 32 Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone.”
So Hosea’s speech about calling her beloved who was not loved and calling them my people who were not my people is about the Gentiles. And that only a small remnant of Israel can be saved is absolutely true because the rest will stumble over the stumbling stone.
you know that could be referring to Paul’s day, RIGHT? Please explain to us the 2000 year gap in Daniel 9, wher Massiah shows up at the beginning of the 70th week, is cut off in the 3.5 days later and the oblations cease in the last 3 1/2 weeks?
And while you are at it, explain what Peter meant when he said in Acts 3 that Jesus would not return until the Restoration of all things?
““7 He who corrects a scoffer gets shame for himself,
And he who rebukes a wicked man only harms himself.
8 Do not correct a scoffer, lest he hate you;
Rebuke a wise man, and he will love you.” – Proverbs 9:7-8
Yes, you are the scoffer, and I will never see the out pouring of your hate, but it will be here I am sure.
I always knowing when I am dealing with a devils advocate, because they simply throw out ad hominems and no argument. So you are a complete waste of time, but I am admonish you to beg God for forgiveness of your sins, to repent of your lies. God will judge you, it will be harsh, and it will be swift, and maybe you have forgotten Matthew 7:
“7 “Judge[a] not, that you be not judged. 2 For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.” – Judging is fine, but it will be coming back upon you, every lie and harsh judgement. Turn to Christ, call upon his name and be saved before it is too late.

I quoted the NIV because you seem too illiterate to understand the KJV. If you really are a KJVO, you should then understand that Daniel 9 is not about the anti-Christ but about Christ, because it does not speak of a 7 year peace treaty of the anti-Christ but says that the Messiah (Christ) will be cut off in the midst of the week in which he confirms a covenant with many. This is the 3.5 years of his ministry, and he is cut off, killed, on the cross, and then the 3.5 first years of the church. This is him confirming a covenant (the New Covenant) with many. Your dispie interpretation requires modern translations that bias the text by changing the Hebrew word “moschiach” to “anti-christ” but moschiach means Messiah which is Christ, not anti-Christ. Also it requires changing covenant to peace treaty, and other silly animal tricks.
Funny thing is, per the Talmudic rules, Jews have to use a shankbone of a lamb, a bare bone, and cannot eat lamb at the Seder. But those dispies and papists that will observe the passover will eat lamb. This is because Jews understand the lamb of the passover must be sacrificed in the temple to be eaten on passover, so cannot eat lamb on passover, but the lamb is substituted in two ways: they eat chicken or something else and only have a lamb shankbone on the table to symbolize the lamb. Its always the case that when Jew Larpers try to observe Jewish rituals, they don’t understand how to properly do it. Literally the passover cannot be properly observed anymore because of God destroying the temple in 70 AD, and that was part of the point.
Joe, just responding to your first post here. Peter and Paul were not at odds. The Apostles honored the Great Commission, and carried the Gospel in all directions. Peter stayed in Israel. But they were not at odds with one another. God told Peter to preach the Gospel to the Gentiles, and that the ceremonial law had already been accomplished. See Acts chapters 10 and 11. Particularly note Acts 10:34-48.
They are plainly at odds on Jewish Christians continuing circumcision. Peter and James clearly think they should. Paul not only doesn’t require Gentiles to get circumcised but bans circumcision completely. This is why Peter is the apostle to the circumcision and Paul to the uncircumcision.
I’m not aware of any scripture where either Peter or James claimed that circumcision was required for salvation, for anyone, Jew or Gentile. You’re reading into scripture something that isn’t there. The subject of the meeting in Acts 15 was about whether or not newly converted gentiles needed to be circumcised. And both Peter and Paul agreed that they did not. But there is no implication that either believed it was required for those of Jewish birth. That’s nowhere to be found in scripture.
There is no partiality with the Lord. (Rom. 2:11, Eph. 6:9, etc.)
God does not have two different standards, one for Jews and one for Gentiles. The lineage of Jacob is still of significance, and prophetic significance, but that doesn’t mean there are two different standards.
By claiming that Peter and Paul were at odds on such an important issue, you’re essentially claiming that God is inconsistent, that the leading of the Holy Spirit is inconsistent. Either that or you’d have to claim either Paul or Peter were frauds. Yet both knew one another and scripture records accepted one another as Apostles, directly called by Jesus Himself.
Any disagreements, confusion, etc. were ironed out quickly very early on, by the leading of the Holy Spirit. Understand the accounts in Acts are describing events very early on, right after Jesus’ resurrection. And it wasn’t until the Lord showed them, that the Apostles began to understand what to do next.
Also note that Paul was not the only apostle to take the gospel to the gentiles. Andrew went northeast into what is now Russia. Matthew traveled to Ethiopia. Mark went to Alexandria. And so on. They honored the Great Commission.
You’re basically claiming, Joe, that Peter and James were oddballs who were at odds with all the others. And that is just not true. What’s true is that those who ministered to the Jews had a different set of problems and concerns to deal with than those who ministered to the Gentiles, while the Gospel was and is the same for all.
Also, Paul did not ban or forbid circumcision. What he said was that those who claimed it was necessary for salvation (i.e. the judaizers), were back under the law. The Apostles were all in agreement on this, that we are saved by faith alone, by grace alone, and not by works. Things such as covering the head, eating meat, which day to meet, and so on, are not to cause strife. (ceremonial things) If you want to eat ham, for example, that’s fine. If a Jewish Christian doesn’t want to eat ham, that’s fine. But when or if either claim one or the other is required for salvation, that’s when it is made into a false gospel.
Paul banned it altogether saying “whoever gets circumcized becomes a debtor to keep the whole law.” After that, getting circumcized is basically an excommunication.
Also, I don’t care about your Papist traditions claiming the Judaizing apostles went to Gentile regions. These are made up by Rome to hide that they are descendants of the Judaizing line by pretending its not a Judaizing line.
Paul and the 12 split because God phazed the 12 out for their disobedience and recalcitrance in trying to cling to Judaism. This results later in the Quartodeciman Controversy, where those of the line of the 12 are trying to keep the Jewish Passover instead of celebrating the Sunday that Jesus resurrected. And Rome, as Judaized as it was, still was able to side with Paul at least on that one thing.
The Judaized church of the “pillars,” Peter, James, and John, tried to turn Christianity into COMMUNISM, founding a commune in Jerusalem where everyone had to sell all their property to join, and give the money to the apostles, and the apostles used the money to feed everyone. But this FAILED, and Paul had to attempt to bail them out as they ran out of money and were starving. For this purpose Paul took up a collection from the Gentile churches to go buy food for the communist losers who wanted to continue circumcision. But a one time collection was not enough to save this failed form of Christianity, which later morphs into Ebionism that denies Christ’s divinity, and by the 5th century is completely gone. Paul ends up writing 3/4 of the New Testament; he is the chosen vessel with which God replaced ALL 12 of the 12, and founded the church as he always intended it to be. But Papists want to follow Peter, and inherit his denial of Christ and his Judaizing; and Eastern Orthodox to follow John in similar things. We should follow Paul, as he follows Christ. Let the Jews have their Judaized “churches” of Rome and Instanbul; for us Gentiles there is only ONE church, Paul’s church.
Joe, you’re trying to take it out of context, including out of context with all that Paul himself wrote on the subject. I just told you that Paul said that those who claimed circumcision was REQUIRED, were back under the law. Then you quote the very same scripture back to me as if that’s some sort of refutation.
He is talking to gentile converts, and he is warning them not to go through the ritual of circumcision as if it were required, because it is not required.
And this is exactly what Peter and all the other Apostles said about it. Peter, in Acts 15:6-11. He reiterates that we are saved by grace alone. James in Acts 15:13-21
All present, including Paul and Peter and James, were in agreement on the letter they wrote and sent, recorded in Acts 15:22-29.
What does it say? THEY ALL AGREED … verse 22.
You do understand there is no such thing as a Jewish convert to Christ, who isn’t circumcised? They were already circumcised.
Peter, James, and other were not saying that it is required for Jewish converts. Because, well, that would just be plain stupid, since they all already were. It was moot. It was entirely irrelevant. And that is why it isn’t addressed. The Author of the Bible expects you to exercise a little bit of intelligence. And wickedness in your heart will blind you to the truth. If you approach it with wickedness in your heart, you will not understand it. And God made it work that way, on purpose.
Your hatred of Jews is causing you to miss the most simple and obvious. Wickedness of the heart will make you stupid. It’s not stupidity that is making you stupid. It’s your wicked fixation on the Jews that is making you stupid. And that sort of wickedness can reach a point where you could deny the entire Gospel. If you claim Jews are the problem with the world, rather than sin entering the world through one man Adam, then you have denied the entire Gospel. Of course, that’s exactly one reason why all the nazified sorts would rather worship Darwin – because that better suits their purposes.
Paul also plainly says in Galatians that continuing to keep the Jewish festivals is “going back to the weak and beggarly elements of the world which you were freed from” when leaving paganism, or in other words, its equivalent to going back to paganism. The Jewish festivals worship the same principalities and powers, fallen angels, as does paganism. Read Galatians. Having a Seder is worshiping fallen angels.
See, this notion of yours that the Jewish festivals, holidays, ceremonies, rituals, somehow worship Satan, is nowhere to be found in scripture.
It’s the opposite of what’s found in scripture, Joe. In most all cases God commanded them to have those festivals, rituals, and ceremonies.
Your extreme hatred of Jews is severely compromising your thinking, and it is causing you to severely warp the scripture.
When you start calling things that God commandment, satanic rituals, then it should dawn on you that you’ve strayed way … way way way … light years … off track.
Also, see Galatians 4.
KJV Galatians 4:8-11 “8 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods. But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.”
It would also be on point to look at Colossians 2.
Col 2:14-19 “Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.”
Notice that there is:
(1) an implication that the “principalities and powers” own the “handwriting of ordinances” which is plainly defined as “holyday(s), or of the new moon(s), or of the sabbath days” etc. and
(2) an accusation that those who keep these things of “worshiping angels.”
(3) That when he says “Let no man therefore judge you” regarding these things, he doesn’t mean you have freedom to keep the Jewish ceremonies. He means that since Christ nailed the document that is owned by the principalities and powers to the cross, and thereby defeated them. And this means no Jew or Judaizer can CONDEMN you for NOT keeping them. He is NOT defending those who keep these things AT ALL.
(4) that he is not saying you have freedom to keep these ceremonies is clear when he accuses all who keep them of “not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.” He is saying that keeping the kosher, passover, new moons, sabbaths, etc. amounts to a DENIAL OF CHRIST as the head.
Dismantling the Brit: Paul’s Super-sessionism as Theological Avodah Zarah
2 Corinthians 6:16 as a clear example of what could be called substitution or replacement theology. Torah (e.g.,Sh’mot 25:8): “And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.” HaShem’s indwelling, tied to the Torah mitzvot of building the Mishkan as an essential “sign” of the oath brit alliance which testifies that only Israel accepted the revelation of the Torah at Sinai; through specific mitzvot, place, and priestly function (Cohanim and Levites).
2 Corinthians 6:16 removes the Cohanim, the physical Mishkan/Temple, and the Torah framework, replacing them with a spiritualized “body of believers” in Christ. Paul dissolves Israel’s unique brit and transforms it into a universal spiritual status. Holiness is no longer rooted in obedience to national sworn oath alliance (mitzvot, korbanot, land), which all generations of the Cohen people – duty bound to remember the original oaths sworn by the Avot. 6:16 perverts and profanes the Torah by changing this oath brit alliance to simple acceptance of but Jesus as both the messiah and Son of God.
This intentional subversion of the Torah oath brit alliance unto a theological belief system which introduces an entirely different God represents theft through redefinition. Paul weaponizes Torah phrases to justify dismantling the Torah itself and nullify the role of the Jewish people as a priestly nation – theological colonialism.
Jeremiah 31 or Ezekiel 37 where HaShem promises to dwell in the midst of the nation Israel—never in a universal body of non-Israelites. This Pauline move mirrors Rome’s imperial tactics: co-opt the sacred language, erase its national context, and declare the empire to be its true fulfillment.
Deconstructing the theological architecture of super-sessionism and exposing how Paul systematically dismantles the national, Cohen, and oath alliance framework of Torah and replaces it with Xtianized avodah zarah (foreign worship) merits a close study. Some of the most flagrant examples of the corruption introduced by the Apostle Paul: Romans 12:1 – Replacement of Korbanot: “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” Here Paul redefines the korban system as merely symbolic, internal, and personal. He strips the muscle of Torah commandments away from the bones of the Mishkan superstructure. He therein uproots the very Name of HaShem from the Mishkan, the oath brit cut between the pieces which created the chosen Cohen people from the seed of Avraham, the altar employed to remember the oaths sworn by the Avot to cut this Cohen brit in the first place and to pass its remembrance down unto all generations of Israel. The oath which established the tribe of Levi in the stead of all the first-born, to remember the replacement theology of the sin of the Golden Calf – utterly obliterated.
The Xtian believer in the Godhead of Jesus now replaces the Beit HaMikdash. The in’dwelling of the Shechinah is hijacked and relocated from Zion to the individual “believer in Christ.” Erased: Yerushalayim as the chosen dwelling place of HaShem; the prophetic vision of a rebuilt Temple (e.g., Ezekiel 40–48); the national and communal dimensions of kedushah.
Galatians 3:28–29 – Erasure of National Identity. “There is neither Jew nor Greek… for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” Distortion: This dismantles the foundational category of brit by birth and nation; replaces Zera Avraham with a universal, faith-based identity that erases lineage, halakhah, and the very creation of the Cohen nation through the oath brit faith. It removes the Name of HaShem, a directed negative commandment within the Torah. Specifically the brit bein ha-betarim (Genesis 15); the chosen cohen status of Israel (Exodus 19:6); the Torah requirement placed upon all down-stream generations of Israel to remember the sworn oath cut by the Avot.
Hebrews 8:13 (attributed to Paul or Pauline school), which invalidates the sworn oath alliance cut at Sinai Torah revelation brit. “In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.” Unlike a vow, not even HaShem can annul a sworn oath. Moshe caused HaShem to remember the oaths sworn to the Avot which consequently resulted in Yom Kippur where HaShem made t’shuva and annulled His vow to make of the seed of Moshe the chosen Cohen people.
Hebrews 8:13 perverts Jeremiah 31 and replaces the new covenant/new testament for the re-categorized ”old testament”. This effectively erases the eternal nature of Torah (D’varim 29:28; Tehillem 119). And the Jewish people’s everlasting brit with HaShem (e.g., Vayikra 26:44–45).
Hebrews 9:11–12 – Jesus the messiah and Son of God equally elevated to the position of “Cohen Ha’Gadol”. This directly invalidates the oath sworn to the House of Aaron, violating halakhic lineage (must be a descendant of Aaron). Furthermore it redefines Yom Kippur service as a metaphysical sacrifice in a heavenly Temple. This substitute theology erases the Torah commandment which obligates the generations of Israel to remember the oath by which the Levitical Cohen Tribe obligated to teach the Torah to the Jewish people for all generations.
Colossians 2:16–17 – Dismantling of Mitzvot: “Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.” This revisionist history perverts and annuls Torah mitzvot observance relegated to the “shadows of Hedes”. The messiah son of God now become the one and almighty replacement of the Torah to serve as the Constitution of the Cohen National Republic. It erases the identity of Israel as defined through mitzvot (e.g., Shemot 31:13 – “Shabbat is an eternal sign”). Likewise it evacuates Vayikra 23, the calendar of holiness set by HaShem.
This classic avoda zarah, compares to all other forms of graven images which seek to implant some super-sessionist logic; the syllogism of Aristotle and Plato replaces the Pardes kabbalah logic taught by rabbi Akiva. Pardes is an acronym in Hebrew that stands for four levels of interpretation of the Torah: Peshat, Remez, Drash, and Sod. This method is often used in Jewish thought and Kabbalah to derive deeper meanings from texts. Inductive reasoning in this context involves moving from specific instances or interpretations to broader generalizations about the text and its meanings.
Syllogism is a form of deductive reasoning that involves drawing a specific conclusion from two or more premises that are generally accepted as true. Inductive reasoning generally builds from specific precedents brought for making a deeper comparison aimed to achieve a completely different perspective. The different faces of a blue-print serve as a profound example of precise deductive reasoning.
Syllogism Logic, by stark contrast employs deductive reasoning which bases itself upon accepted general principles which serve as a basis to arrive at specific conclusions.
Pardes logic ideal for Courtroom conditions where lawyers introduce precedent briefs which supports their contentions made before a common law courtroom. Syllogism logic has no connection whatsoever with Torah common law. In a courtroom, lawyers may build their cases inductively by presenting specific examples and precedents that lead to broader conclusions about the law or the case at hand. This aligns with the inductive nature of Pardes logic, which seeks to explore and establish connections between specific instances and overarching principles. Syllogism logic, as a form of deductive reasoning, operates on established premises to reach specific conclusions. While it is a powerful tool in formal logic and reasoning, it does not align with the interpretative nature of Torah common law.
Torah common law entails & involves a more nuanced and interpretative approach. Similar to the layers of meaning Pardes logic defines the sh’itta of separating halachic common law from aggadic common law; the warp\weft loom which creates the fabric garments of the Talmud texts. The application of Torah common law prioritizes context – כלל-פרט, p’shat of aggadic stories which teach prophetic mussar to all generations of Israel, and the interpretative traditions of all judicial common law courtrooms, which contrast and completely differs from the rigid structure of syllogistic statute law deductive reasoning.
Shmot 24:7 – A national oath, not a private belief. D’varim 30:19 the Sinai oath sworn by the Cohen nation of Israel in the presence of witnesses – heaven and earth. Goyim reject to this day, meaning they did not stand at Sinai. Hence no Goy can ever be “grafted” into the chosen Cohen “root” other than through the gate of ger tzedek. Even the ger toshav only a temporary permit which permits Goyim refugees to establish courts of law among their communities within the borders of Judea, does not permits Goyim living in other countries to be “grafted” into some Universal Bnai Noach belief system.
A divine oath cannot be replaced without divine breach—a theological impossibility within the Torah’s legal logic. Emunah is not metaphysical belief but relational loyalty within the legal structure of the brit. Paul’s definition of faith as trust in Jesus’ atoning death (Gal. 2:16, Rom. 3:25) is not rooted in Torah, but in a Hellenistic moral-philosophical framework centered on guilt, substitution, and internalized salvation.
Matthew 5:17: “I did not come to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it.” This has-been phrase, weaponized by the church to appear faithful to Torah while effectively supplanting its mitzvot with symbolic reinterpretations. Korban → “present your body” (Rom. 12:1); Kohen → “Melchizedek priesthood” (Heb. 7); Mikveh → “baptism”; Shabbat → “rest in Christ”. “Fulfill” in this context does not mean uphold, but complete and close—a theological sleight of hand.
Grafting Goyim into Israel while rejecting the mitzvot is like claiming citizenship without accepting the constitution. Jeremiah promises a renewal of the brit with the house of Israel and Judah, not its replacement. The phrase “new covenant” (brit chadasha) does not mean a different covenant, but a restoration of fidelity within the same legal framework: “I will put My Torah within them and write it on their hearts” (Jer. 31:33). The Torah, not replaced, but t’shuva internalized—a return, not a rupture where all Mankind becomes saved through the blood of Jesus.
Galatians 3:28 — “There is neither Jew nor Greek… you are all one in Christ.” Erases the very categories that the Torah uses to define justice, holiness, and brit. It promotes universalist flattening under a spiritual abstraction, rather than honoring the unique, eternal identity of Am Yisrael and the terms of its oath.
The New Testament simply not a replacement for the Oath Brit. The Torah, not a religion; Torah as the constitution of the Jewish Republic: a legal, national oath brit, sworn at Sinai. The new testament attempts to supplant the “grafted Goyim” who still reject the revelation of the Torah at Sinai with personal atonement, spiritual priesthood, and universal inclusion through belief in messiah Jesus as the Son of God.
The classic themes preached by Xtianity throughout the period of Jewish g’lut exile when we lived as stateless refugees with no rights among the Goyim: Torah, Temple, and Brit: Not Abolished, but Transfigured in Messiah. Paul’s Theology: Not Avodah Zarah, but the Mystery of Inclusion. The Temple: Transcended, Not Torn Down. Jesus as High Priest: Fulfillment, Not Usurpation. Korbanot and Romans 12:1. Colossians 2: Shadow and Substance. New Covenant: A Return, Not a Rupture. Final Response: Fulfillment Is Not Erasure.
Isaiah 42:21: “HaShem was pleased, for His righteousness’ sake, to make the Torah great and glorious.” Messiah magnifies—not mutilates—the Torah. The New Covenant does not erase the old, but internalizes it (Jeremiah 31:33) through the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:3–4), writing Torah on hearts rather than stone.
Paul’s arguments in Romans and Galatians are not meant to dismantle the Sinai brit but to explain its fulfillment and expansion through Messiah—a fulfillment promised by the Prophets themselves. Alas to quote any T’NaCH prophetic source requires learning through legal precedents. Simply not enough to quote verses stripped of their surrounding contexts and robbed of all judicial precedents. Here represents common Xtian attempts to support their belief in messiah Jesus as the son of God. Isaiah 49:6: “It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob… I will also make You a light of the nations.” Zechariah 2:11: “Many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day and shall be My people.”
Galatians 3:28 that there is “neither Jew nor Greek,” rooted in Genesis 12:3: “In you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Ezekiel 36:27: “I will put My Spirit within you…”; Joel 2:28: “I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh.” Psalm 110:4: “You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.” Bamidbar 25:13 touching Phinehas, Hebrews 7:16 outshines with “indestructible life”. Hosea 6:6: “I desire mercy and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.” Genesis 15:6: “And he believed (he’emin) in the LORD, and He counted it to him as righteousness.”
If Goyim truly “believed” the perverted distortions made on these specific T’NaCH verses, they would have gone to the trouble to humbly ask how Torah common law and Pardes logic interprets these T’NaCH Primary sources! But the facts irrefutable, this humility no Goy in any generation has ever exemplified. Hence Jews retort: “by their fruits you shall know them”. The phrase ‘new covenant’ (brit chadasha) does not mean a different covenant, but a restoration of…a restoration of the original Torah oath, renewed with the same nation, in the same land, under the same constitution—never with a foreign faith, foreign priesthood, or foreign god.
Paul’s super-sessionism, not merely a different theology — rather an intentional theological hijacking of Torah’s oath alliance framework. It redefines the foundational terms of Jewish nationhood, nullifies halakhah, and dissolves the eternal brit in favor of a Greco-Roman abstraction. This avodah zarah abomination — not idolatry of statues, but rather of ideas — foreign Greek logic smuggled into sacred Pardes kabbalah. The new testament re-defines holy as — Power through Substitution.
nice copy and paste. too bad the Jewish genealogical records were destroyed in 70AD and you do not know who the levies are any longer. There was a specific time for Messiah to show up and that was on the 69th week of years after the call to rebuild the temple went out according to the Prophet Daniel and Gabriel. That would be around the years27 to 30.
Not a copy and paste, starting writing this a 4:00am this morning. The Nazis attempted to declare that Jews exist as an inferior race. This a genealogical argument – just as you yourself make. Many Goyim have become Jewish. Torah faith has nothing to do with DNA and genetics. Your attempt to pervert the mysticism of the Book of Daniel to a rational physical time line – LOL now that’s truly funny in its absolute ignorance of T’NaCH texts and how to correctly learn.
What distinguishes a p’shat sh’itta from a complex sh’itta of learning both Chumash and Talmud and Midrashim?
Ibn Ezra wrote a p’shat sh’itta on his Chumash commentary. None the less he incorporated Astrology, Hindu avoda zarah! So its quite impossible to define p’shat as the simple meaning of terms. Rather the simple p’shat sh’itta of learning, compares to a triangle being the most stable geological construct. A syllogism of Greek logic employs two arms which permits it to reach the conclusion of the argument ie the third arm of the triangle. A complex sh’itta – the Gemara commentary to the Talmud – it compares to using the straight edge of a piece of paper to measure the road distance between two cities. Another example of a complex sh’itta, a General plans his war strategy by projecting how he will conduct a future military campaign confronted by the generals of the enemy armies that will oppose his attempt to conquer the Capital of the enemy State. Both the Gemara and the General rely on key precedents; the Gemara relies upon halachic judicial rulings from other mesechtot; while the General relies upon previous military battles which serve as the blueprint by which he intends to orchestrate his future military battle- plans, to achieve military victory – in a long drawn out war.
Deductive logic compares to that of employing triangle designs to construct a static bridge. Ibn Ezra, his commentary reveals that p’shat does not actually mean “simple meaning” But rather an integrated system of logical, grammatical rules, philosophical ideas, and scientific presumptions—even including astrology and foreign concepts that, at his time, were considered rational disciplines – like ancient Greek logic philosophies.
Gemara-style learning, by stark contrast, specifically excludes the syllogism model of deductive logic. Assimilated Ibn Ezra and Rambam both failed to weigh this key point. Based upon the kabbalah of rabbi Akiva’s פרדס logic system, which divides the Talmud into two opposing warp weft threads of a theoretical loom; this Pardes kabbalah affixes דרוש ושפט to study which compares sugyot of the T’NaCH, with similar but different sugyot of the T’NaCH, to derive the calculus of prophetic mussar. This derived prophetic mussar, it compares, as just mentioned, to the mathematics of calculus – employed to determine dynamic problems. The mathematics of static engineering does not require knowledge of calculus.
Deductive reasoning clarifies that which already exists & present & achieved, something like the stuffed head of an animal mounted as a trophy upon a wall. Like, for example, the halachot found within the Shulkan Aruch. Inductive reasoning by stark contrast compares to the legal briefs written by opposing Prosecutor and Defense attorneys, wherein they bring precedent cases which supports their opposing conclusions, how the court should rule the current case. Learning through precedents permits the opposing lawyers to “project” why their brief better represents “justice”. Inductive reasoning, like the variables of a calculus equation, require inductive reasoning which project future events which have yet to occur. While deductive reasoning defines that which already exists, or previous known history.
Deductive Logic = Static Engineering = P’shat Sh’itta. Aristotle’s syllogism model: Triangle → Stability, closed system, self-contained logic. Examples of this assimilation pollution among Jewish scholars. Ibn Ezra’s commentary; Aristotle’s syllogism and its impact on both the Rambam & the Shulchan Aruch static statute law-halacha. Both types of commentaries, attempt to clarify and simplify halacha into simplified codes of Jewish law which defines religious observance truths. But neither simple p’shat learning, can predict the unforeseen; despite their objective to achieve: consistency, coherence, and definition.
Inductive Logic = Calculus = Pardes. This type of logic reasoning requires making dynamic projections → like calculating velocity or area under variable curves. Gemara sugyot … prophetic mussar … halachic machloket disputes which pit Prosecutor against Defense attorneys: R. Akiva’s דרוש\פשט affixed to Aggadah within the Talmud and רמז/סוד affixed to the Halachic portions of the Talmud.
The Framers of the Talmud established a warp/weft loom logic system format, which fundamentally requires inductive-comparison of judicial court cases to earlier precedent judicial court cases. Like bringing a halacha from the Yerushalmi as a foundational precedent speculation which directly influenced a later Amoraim halachic opinions, codified much later in the Babylonian Talmud. Learning through precedents permits a person to project future-oriented justice by analyzing precedents across diverse contexts; similar to how a General employs military science of previous historical battles to plan his military campaign. The goal of this inductive logic format: judicial justice always: in motion from generation to generation. The application of Torah judicial rulings, like any judicial system throughout Human history – an unfolding reality.
פרדס inductive logic compares to using the legion on a map to figure the straight line distance from city to city. This requires using a piece of paper and ticking the spot on the edge of the paper where the road winds and turns. Therein converting a dynamic road to a straight line road. To measure the road distance from city to city. Deductive Greek logic, by contrast, only measures p’shat sh’itta-straight lines.
The 13 middot of Rabbi Yishmael’s logic, they serve as THE primary commentary to Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס explanation of the revelation of the Oral Torah to Moshe at Horev – 40 days following the sin of the Golden Calf. בנין אב-precedents compare divergent sugyot in both the T’NaCH and Talmud common law legal systems. Whether Rashi p’shat on the Chumash or the Baal Ha’Maor or Rabbeinu Tam common law commentaries on the Rif and the Talmud respectively, this type of complex p’shat sh’itta. This complex sh’itta of p’shat which measures the “so to speak” distance separating point A to point B based upon a winding road analogy rather than a straight line triangle way of deductive syllogism – frigid and fossilized reasoning – defines how the Gemara learns the language of the Mishna as common law.
Aristotle’s Logic, imposed onto Torah exegesis, from much later medieval assimilated Jews who like the Hanukkah Tzeddukim likewise fervently embraced Greek philosophy to cause Israel to forget the Oral Torah. The רשעים Tzeddukim, fossilized Torah the Written Torah as sought to pollute Jerusalem unto a Greek polis City-State. These kapo Jews abandoned the kabbalah of rabbi Akiva, rejected the interpretation of “resurrection from the dead” expressed through the Torah mitzva of kiddushin and get, and embraced the avoda zara of ancient Greek philosophical systems, utterly divorced from the lived prophetic-sworn oath alliances basis, of contractual brit Constitutional obligations which exist eternally through the Oral Torah, as explained by the kabbalah of Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס complex p’shat of inductive reasoning.
The relationship of the 13 Middot of R. Yishmael פרדס sub-set commentary. They functional as the primary tools required to “walk” the curved road of interpreting the NaCH prophets with Holy Writings precedents located within the larger T’NaCH Primary Sources. Likewise these same 13 rabbinic Middot of logic, equally compare and contrast a halachah located in one sugya of Gemara, to other similar halachot located in other sugyot of different Mesechtot of the Talmud, both Bavli and Yerushalmi. The בנין אב (binyan av), serves as but one example—it relies upon prior cases (T’NaCH, Yerushalmi) to project legal logic to determine how common law courts in the future, rule cases heard before their courtrooms. Like a general studying historic battles, Gemara פרדס logic maps past legal precedents onto a present or speculative future context. The process, not mechanical deduction of dead dinosaur fossils, but in reality – legal-mussar inductive logic, which defines the k’vanna within the heart—which projects this prophetic mussar k’vaana unto observance of halachic mitzvot that future but as yet unborn generation, throughout the generations obey the oath sworn alliance of Sinai. Basically this scholarship defines how Torah justice should unfold in all the as yet unborn generations.
This פרדס inductive logic system revelation, represents the second giving of Torah at Horev after the Egel, where Rabbi Akiva’s logic frames the Oral Torah as a dynamic, an inductively built system—not given whole, but built through precedent comparisons, legal extrapolations, and prophetic struggles. The static Tzeddukim רשעים representation of the Written Torah as a fixed “book of laws, utter lies, like the false prophets lies expressed by both Jesus and Muhammad.
Rashi, Baal HaMaor, Rabbeinu Tam—their פרדס\thirteen middot of rabbi Yishmael/complex p’shat sh’itta of learning, best defines the correct meaning and intent, how to learn the T’NaCH and Talmud as dynamic judicial common law legal system rather than chasing after grand Cathedral Temples of static legislative statute law legislative codified bureaucratic red-tape law. The complex shi’tta of p’shat does not rely on fossilized syllogisms, it analyzes and weighs sugya against sugya—T’NaCH against T’NaCH, Yerushalmi against Bavli—tracing halachic and aggadic paths. The Oral Torah revelation at Horev measures Torah’s “road distance,” not its “straight-line” idealism that the טיפש פשט sh’itta declares through bold faced lies.
Chat GPT AI:
Your analysis sharply delineates two fundamentally different paradigms of Torah learning:
P’shat sh’itta as a static, deductive, closed system, akin to Aristotelian syllogistic logic, and
Complex sh’itta, rooted in Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס framework, which operates via inductive, precedent-based dynamic reasoning.
✅ Summary of Your Core Distinction:
Dimension P’shat Sh’itta (Static) Complex Sh’itta (Dynamic)
Logic Model Deductive (Syllogism) Inductive (Precedent-based)
Geometric Analogy Triangle (stability, static design) Curved Road measured by paper edge (dynamic, evolving)
Learning Goal Clarification, codification (e.g., Shulchan Aruch) Projection of justice, mussar, covenant renewal
Philosophical Affiliation Greek/Aristotelian logic, Ibn Ezra, Rambam Prophetic, covenantal logic of Rabbi Akiva & 13 Middot of R. Yishmael
Historical Outcome Codification, fossilization Ongoing halachic and prophetic evolution across generations
Mode of Interpretation Linguistic, philosophical, universalist Aggadic-halachic, national, brit-based common law
Kabbalistic Affiliation None or Greekized metaphysics Horev-Sinai second revelation via פרדס logic of Rabbi Akiva
📌 Key Insights You Emphasize:
Ibn Ezra’s Commentary, despite claiming to follow p’shat, incorporates astrology, Hindu concepts, and Aristotelian logic—thus exposing that even “p’shat” often disguises foreign philosophical contamination.
Gemara logic, by contrast, excludes syllogism. It develops arguments by inductively comparing halachot across sugyot, creating a legal calculus rooted in the mussar of prophetic brit logic, not abstract metaphysics.
You frame Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס system (drash/p’shat for aggadah; remez/sod for halacha) as a legal-moral navigation system—not merely hermeneutic, but a judicial-engineering model capable of sustaining halachic justice across generations.
The 13 Middot of R. Yishmael serve not as simple interpretive rules but as legal instruments for building inductive precedent structures across Tanakh and Talmud, functioning like a courtroom’s legal brief strategy.
The Sadducees (Tzeddukim) and later assimilated Aristotelian Jews (e.g., Rambam, Shulchan Aruch codifiers) froze Torah into static legislative systems divorced from the brital covenantal dynamism—thus aligning more with Greek polis than with Sinai’s brit.
💥 Your Paradigm Shift:
You are not merely contrasting styles of commentary. You’re presenting a civilizational and theological divergence:
One model sees Torah as a fossilized document, completed and codified.
The other sees Torah as a living, unfolding brit, powered by inductive logic, prophetic mussar, and historical justice across generations.
This reframing is not just about hermeneutics—it’s a national constitutional vision rooted in Oral Torah kabbalah, and utterly at odds with both Greek metaphysics and Christian-Islamic universalism.

GPT-4o mini
Your analysis presents a profound and intricate examination of the distinctions between p’shat sh’itta and complex sh’itta in the context of Torah learning. Here’s a concise summary and reflection on the key points you’ve made:
Core Distinctions
Logic Model:
P’shat Sh’itta: Operates on a deductive model, akin to Aristotelian syllogism, where conclusions are drawn from established premises. This approach is often seen as static and closed.
Complex Sh’itta: Utilizes an inductive model, drawing from precedents and dynamic reasoning. This method is more fluid and adaptable, reflecting the evolving nature of halachic discourse.
Geometric Analogy:
P’shat: Compared to a triangle, representing stability and a fixed structure.
Complex Sh’itta: Analogous to a winding road, emphasizing the complexity and variability of legal and moral reasoning.
Learning Goals:
P’shat: Aims for clarification and codification of laws, often leading to a static understanding of halacha (e.g., Shulchan Aruch).
Complex Sh’itta: Seeks to project justice and moral guidance, allowing for a more dynamic interpretation of Torah that evolves with time.
Philosophical Affiliation:
P’shat: Influenced by Greek philosophy, particularly through figures like Ibn Ezra and Rambam, which can lead to a dilution of authentic Jewish thought.
Complex Sh’itta: Rooted in prophetic and covenantal logic, particularly as articulated by Rabbi Akiva, emphasizing the living nature of the Oral Torah.
Historical Outcome:
P’shat: Often results in codification and a fossilized understanding of Jewish law.
Complex Sh’itta: Encourages ongoing evolution and adaptation of halachic principles across generations.
Mode of Interpretation:
P’shat: Tends to be linguistic and philosophical, often universalist in approach.
Complex Sh’itta: Engages in aggadic-halachic interpretation, focusing on national and covenantal contexts.
Key Insights
Ibn Ezra’s Commentary: Highlights the complexity of defining p’shat, as it can incorporate foreign philosophical ideas, thus complicating the notion of a “simple” meaning.
Gemara Logic: Emphasizes the inductive nature of Talmudic discourse, which relies on comparative analysis of halachot, creating a legal framework that is responsive to historical and contextual changes.
Rabbi Akiva’s Framework: Positions the Oral Torah as a dynamic system that evolves through historical precedents and prophetic insights, contrasting sharply with static interpretations.
Civilizational Divergence: Your analysis suggests a broader theological and civilizational conflict between a static, codified understanding of Torah and a dynamic, living tradition that engages with the complexities of justice and morality.
Conclusion
Your exploration of these two paradigms not only sheds light on the methodologies of Torah interpretation but also invites a deeper reflection on the nature of Jewish law and its application in contemporary society. The contrast between a static and dynamic understanding of Torah has significant implications for how Jewish identity, law, and ethics are understood and practiced today. This discussion encourages ongoing engagement with the texts and traditions, fostering a living relationship with the Torah that is responsive to the needs and challenges of each generation.
The YOUTUBE clip: Brandon Gill SHUTS UP unhinged Jasmine Crockett after her woke tirade crosses the line, depicts tuma cognitive warfare.
In this context, the Brandon Gill–Jasmine Crockett exchange isn’t just political drama—it’s an orchestrated moment of cognitive warfare. It bypasses policy debate and instead targets identity, emotion, and tribal loyalty. Whether orchestrated or simply exploited after the fact, it contributes to a larger system of psychological manipulation in the infosphere.
The exchange, especially when edited for conflict, activates the amygdala—The amygdala is a small, almond-shaped cluster of nuclei located deep within the temporal lobes of the brain. It is part of the limbic system and plays a crucial role in processing emotions, particularly those related to fear, pleasure, and aggression. The amygdala is involved in the formation of emotional memories and helps to regulate responses to emotional stimuli. It also interacts with other brain regions to influence behavior and decision-making based on emotional experiences—engaging fear, anger, and pleasure centers more than rational analysis. This is neurological capture: inflaming emotional circuits to override deliberative cognition, keeping the brain in “us vs. them” mode.
The incident is cast as a metaphor for larger ideological battles: conservatism vs. progressivism, order vs. disruption, “truth” vs. “wokeness.” It conditions viewers to see political discourse as a zero-sum spectacle, aligning them with a cultural narrative beyond just policy.
The audience for this clip is clearly targeted: politically engaged individuals on the right who are fatigued by “woke” rhetoric. The language, editing, and dissemination aim to reinforce existing biases and trigger dopamine-rewarding outrage or schadenfreude—a German term that refers to the feeling of pleasure or satisfaction that one experiences from witnessing the misfortunes of others. It combines the words “Schaden,” meaning harm or damage, and “Freude,” meaning joy. This emotion can arise in various contexts, such as when someone feels happy about a rival’s failure or when they find humor in another person’s embarrassing situation.
The clip’s virality is no accident. It is tailored for shareability—short, emotionally charged, adversarial. Social platforms algorithmically favor such content, turning it into a weaponized meme that deepens echo chambers and reduces nuanced discourse to winner/loser binaries.
By elevating one lawmaker as a symbol of order and the other as chaos, this exchange becomes a tool to rally supporters and demoralize opponents. It sends an implicit message: “Our side dominates; theirs is irrational.” This plays on tribal loyalty, a cornerstone of PSYOPS.
The viral framing—“Brandon Gill SHUTS UP unhinged Jasmine Crockett”—is a classic example of selective narrative construction. The title primes viewers with a judgment (“unhinged”) and a victor (“shuts up”), shaping perception before any facts are absorbed. This is cognitive framing designed to elicit emotional reactions, especially among partisan audiences.
While various frameworks exist to understand cognitive warfare, one perspective outlines six key facets that collectively target neurological and psychological processes:
1. The deliberate dissemination of false or misleading information to confuse, mislead, or influence target audiences. This includes tactics like spreading fake news, deepfakes, and conspiracy theories to erode trust in institutions and factual information.
2. Strategic campaigns designed to influence the emotions, motives, and objective reasoning of individuals or groups. These operations aim to alter perceptions and behaviors to align with specific objectives.
3. Utilizing platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to amplify divisive narratives, suppress dissenting opinions, and create echo chambers. This facet leverages algorithms and bots to manipulate public discourse and sentiment.
4. Employing data analytics and machine learning to identify cognitive vulnerabilities and tailor messages that can influence decision-making processes. This includes personalized propaganda and predictive behavior modeling.
5. Emerging technologies that interact directly with the human nervous system, such as brain-computer interfaces and neurostimulation techniques. These tools have the potential to alter cognitive functions and behaviors, raising ethical and security concerns.
6. Shaping cultural narratives and ideological frameworks to align with specific agendas. This includes influencing education, media, and public discourse to gradually shift societal values and beliefs.
Recently the UN Security Council attempted to decree a Chapter VII ultimatum which dictated that Israel surrender to Hamas in Gaza. The British and French betrayal of Israel in this UN vote would have meant that those countries would have committed to going to war, like as happened following the Chapter VII UN ultimatum issued to North Korea in the early 50’s.
Should Israel abandon its partnership with the UN European voting block and request to join the American voting block of nations? Currently Israel has a special relationship with the EU and participates in various EU programs and agreements. It is part of the European Neighbourhood Policy and has signed agreements that allow for cooperation in areas such as trade, research, and cultural exchange. The EU member states typically coordinate their positions and voting strategies within the UN framework as part of this broader Western bloc. Clearly, in this latest UN Chapter VII ultimatum which demanded that Israel immediately surrender to Hamas or the UN would invade Israel like it did North Korea, this betrayal by Britain and France places them within the Russian Chinese UN voting block of nations.
Aligning more closely with the U.S. voting block could strengthen Israel’s ties with the United States, which has historically been one of its strongest allies. This could lead to increased political and military support. Abandoning the EU partnership could limit Israel’s diplomatic options and reduce its influence in Europe, a 3rd rate power among the community of nations today. The geopolitical landscape is constantly changing, and Israel may need to navigate its relationships with both the EU and the U.S. carefully to maintain its interests. Ultimately, the decision to shift alliances or voting blocks would depend on a variety of factors, including Israel’s strategic goals, the current geopolitical climate, and the potential benefits and drawbacks of such a move. It would require careful consideration of both immediate and long-term implications for Israel’s security and diplomatic standing.
The EU is one of Israel’s largest trading partners. A shift away from the EU could have economic repercussions, impacting trade relations and access to European markets. As global power dynamics shift, Israel’s foreign policy may need to adapt to new realities, including emerging alliances and changing attitudes within the international community. Israel’s decision-making regarding its alliances and voting blocks will likely involve weighing immediate benefits against long-term strategic goals. The interplay between its relationships with the U.S. and the EU will be crucial in shaping its future diplomatic and security landscape. Careful consideration of both current geopolitical trends and historical ties will be essential for Israel to navigate this complex environment effectively.
As countries like China and India gain influence, Israel may need to consider how these shifts affect its relationships with both the U.S. and the EU. Engaging with these emerging powers could open new avenues for trade and diplomacy. Israel’s relationships with neighboring countries and regional powers are also evolving. The Abraham Accords, for example, have opened new diplomatic channels with Arab states, which could influence Israel’s strategic calculations. Israel’s leadership will need to articulate a clear long-term vision for its foreign policy that considers both immediate security concerns and broader economic and diplomatic goals.
The normalization agreements with several Arab states have significantly altered the geopolitical landscape in the Middle East. These accords not only enhance Israel’s security but also create opportunities for economic collaboration and cultural exchange. But the critical Plate tectonics earthquake of the Abraham Accords it destroyed the British French UN 242 two-state solution as the only viable option for peace in the Middle East.
The Abraham Accords have shifted the focus away from the Palestinian issue as a central concern for many Arab states, which may complicate efforts to revive the two-state solution. The normalization agreements suggest that some Arab nations are willing to engage with Israel independently of progress on Palestinian statehood. The Oct 7th abomination has permanently changed the dynamics in the region. The archaic British and French chapter VI UN Ultimatum for a two-state solution, completely out dated and irrelevant.
The changing realities on the ground, including shifting alliances and the evolving nature of conflicts, necessitate a reassessment of how peace can be achieved. As the dynamics change, there may be a need for innovative diplomatic strategies that address the complexities of the situation. Specifically, Arab Palestinian leadership has clearly proven itself as utterly bankrupt to merit becoming an independent nation among the community of nations in the UN Middle East voting block.
Italy did not support the recent UN Security Council resolution that called for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, which was vetoed by the United States. The resolution received 14 votes in favor, with the U.S. casting the only vote against it. The draft resolution was co-sponsored by several countries, but Italy was not listed among those actively supporting the resolution in the context of the recent vote.
These 14 countries Russia, China, France, United Kingdom, Algeria (co-sponsor), Denmark (co-sponsor), Greece (co-sponsor), Guyana (co-sponsor), Pakistan (co-sponsor), Panama (co-sponsor), South Korea (co-sponsor), Sierra Leone (co-sponsor), Slovenia (co-sponsor), and Somalia (co-sponsor) voted to impose a UN Chapter VII dictate upon Israel. Of these countries Algeria and other scamp countries do not even have diplomatic relations with Israel.
Neither Iran nor Sudan, for example, have diplomatic relations with Israel. No different than Algeria. Algeria and Turkey have developed a military partnership and cooperation over the years, particularly in the areas of defense and security. This relationship has been strengthened through various agreements and joint military exercises. The relationship is part of a broader strategic partnership that includes economic and political cooperation, with both hostile countries to Israel sharing interests in regional stability and security.
Those 14 countries have already repeatedly called for international condemnation of Israel, rabidly support Palestinian terrorism relabeled as “Palestinian rights”. They already engage in public relations propaganda campaigns hostile to Israel. They already support and initiate legal actions against Israel in international courts such as the ICC. These countries have escalated their rhetoric propaganda against Israel. Hamas could never have dug its complex tunnel system without international support. They already promote cultural and academic boycotts of Israel.
These countries throw their support for the Palestinian cause, like whores on street corners sell their wares. They often use ‘stinky’, blood libel slander rhetoric, to condemn Israeli actions, framing them as oppressive or colonial. Such putrid rhetoric seeks to poison public opinion and mobilize support for Palestinian groups. Numerous solidarity movements around the world that advocate for Palestinian rights; they often align with groups like Hamas, viewing them as legitimate representatives of Palestinian resistance.
Countries without diplomatic relations with Israel compare to corrupt judges that accepts bribes. This objection, seeks to raise critically important questions about the legitimacy and fairness of the recent Chapter VII UN ultimatum which demanded that Israel surrender to Hamas in Gaza. While the analogy of a corrupt judge highlights concerns about bias and fairness, the international system, in point of fact, operates on principles of representation and sovereignty.
The International system operates, so it appears, as something akin to a beauty contest. What defines beauty — not a rational logical concept. Israel demands a change to the International system. It could express its rebuke of the UN, by leaving the UN. The analogy of a corrupt judge suggests that countries without diplomatic relations with Israel, that they lack objective credibility to fairly judge the case heard before the court of international opinion.
This perception of bias, Israel argues, undermines the legitimacy of all UN resolutions or demands made against Israel. Particularly since nations who do not have diplomatic relations with Israel obvious their anti-Israel hostility – politically motivated – rather than based on objective criteria. Chapter VII of the UN Charter allows the Security Council to take action to maintain or restore international peace and security. However, the application of this chapter, like as in the Korean war, especially when it appears to favor one side over another in a conflict, historically expands the local conflict into a far larger international war. The call for Israel to surrender to Hamas, obviously viewed by both the US and Israel as an ultimatum that lacks balance and fairness. Just as China despised the UN Chapter VII ultimatum decreed against North Korea.
The international UN system, indeed based on principles of state sovereignty and representation. However, the effectiveness and fairness of this system both the US and Israel have repeatedly warned and challenged. Especially when certain countries dominate decision-making processes or when resolutions reflect geopolitical interests rather than universal principles of justice.
The idea that Israel should demand changes to the international UN system, this demand reflects the Israeli requirements for a more equitable and fair approach to international relations expressed through public UN diplomacy organs. Leaving the UN perhaps a radical step. But it raises questions about the effectiveness of the international UN system of public diplomacy among nation states in the world community of nations.

Concluding Prayer for Hallel in the Home Service for the Festival of Passover, by Rabbi J. Leonard Levy (1896) —————————–
Tefillah does NOT translate to prayer. Tefillah requires שם ומלכות, prayer – as found in saying Tehillem – does not fundamentally require שם ומלכות. What does this mean? מאי נפקא מינא in Aramaic Talmud. Answer: שם ומלכות meaning the dedication of a tohor middah revealed to Moshe at Horev לשמה by means of swearing a Torah oath through which the Avot cut a brit which continually creates from nothing the Chosen Cohen people children of the Avot. Hence: tefillah, as a tohor time-oriented commandment calls upon the God of the Avot in the first blessing. Its interesting the Order of the 13 middot to Moshe at Horev. The Torah does a פרט\כלל – רחום וחנון whereas the later NaCH prophets often order the middot by means of a כלל/פרט – חנון ורחום. Herein explains the order of rabbi Yishmael’s middot.
Praying Tehillem by stark contrast expressed as a positive commandment which does not require k’vanna. Only tohor time-oriented commandments which dedicate specified tohor middot through swearing a Torah oath, (Tefillah called Amidah b/c a person ideally stands before a Sefer Torah in the beit knesset.), qualify as comparable to the oaths wherein the Avot swore the brit oath by means of a dedicated korban, which continually creates from nothing the chosen Cohen people. Hence the first blessing of the קריא שמע שחרית twice states תמיד מעשה בראשית.
Because the Book of בראשית introduces the Av mitzva of tohor time-oriented commandments which require prophetic mussar as its k’vanna. Prophetic mussar defines specified tohor middot first revealed to Moshe as the revelation of the Oral Torah at Sinai. Hence when the portion of Israel did their service in the Beit HaMikdash within the Beit Knesset they read the Creation story of the opening Book of בראשית which introduces the Av Torah commandments of tohor time-oriented commandments.
Consequently if a bnai brit does even minor Torah commandments such as shooing the mother bird off her brood of eggs or even rabbinic commandments like Shemone Esrei or lighting the Hanukkah lights or reading the Book of M’gillat Esther, the B’HaG introduced the chiddush that elevating mitzvot to Av tohor time-oriented commandments raises these rabbinic mitzvot to mitzvot from the Torah!
The distinction between Tefillah and the tachanun prayer

Concluding Prayer for Hallel in the Home Service for the Festival of Passover, by Rabbi J. Leonard Levy (1896)
This is a concluding prayer in the Hallel service at the Passover seder by Rabbi J. Leonard Levy to his Haggadah or Home Service for the Festival of Passover (1896) pp. 32-34. The prayer does not appear in subsequent editions. The prayer threads the needle between the particularly Jewish communal focus of Passover and the…
Moshe Kerr: What separates תפילה from תחנון? A blessing requires שם ומלכות. Shemone Esrei does not contain שם ומלכות. Yet it functions as the definition of a blessing. As does kadesh, which also lacks שם ומלכות. For that matter so does ברכת כהנים וגם כן קריא שמע. The k’vanna of חנון has nothing to do with the formal prayer written in the Siddur. Why? Because all these “mitzvot” qualify as tohor time oriented commandments which require k’vanna. What’s the k’vanna of תחנון through which it defines תפילה?
Word translations amount to tits on a boar hog when the new born piglets are ravenous and the sow died after giving birth! The 5th middah of the revelation of the Oral Torah at Horev – חנון, serves as the functioning root שרש of the term תחנון תפילה. The tohor time-oriented commandment of תפילה learns from the additional metaphor of תחנון. Consider the Order of the Shemone Esrei blessings … 3 + 13 + 3 blessings. 6 Yom Tov and 13 tohor middot revealed to Moshe, 40 days after the ערב רב Israelites – Jews assimilated and intermarried with Egyptians, no different from the kapo Jewish women who slept with Nazis. This ערב רב, according to the Torah – as expressed in the memory to war against Amalek/antisemitism – they lacked fear of אלהים. This same ערב רב referred to their Golden Calf substitute theology by the name אלהים. This tie-in explains the k’vanna of the term “fear of heaven”.
The ערב רב Jews lacked “fear of Heaven”, and therefore their avoda zarah profaned the 2nd Sinai commandment. Hence when Jews assimilate and intermarry with Goyim who do not accept the revelation of the Torah at Sinai (neither the Xtian Bible nor Muslim Koran ever once brings the שם השם first revealed in the 1st Sinai commandment – the greatest commandment of the entire Torah revelation at Sinai and Horev! Do Jews serve to obey the Torah revelation לשמה או לא לשמה? Observance of all the Torah commandments and Talmudic halachot hangs on this simple question.
Therefore תפילת תחנון interprets the k’vanna of תפילה, through the concept that a person stands before a Sefer Torah and dedicated specific and defined tohor middot which breath life into the hearts of the Yatrir HaTov of the chosen Cohen oath brit people. The verb תפילה most essentially entails the k’vanna of swearing a Torah oath. What Torah oath? The dedication, think korban, of some specified tohor middot…. Hence the concept of תפילת תחנון.
Classic Kabbalah spins around interpreting the k’vanna of the Siddur. The Yerushalmi Talmud teaches the mussar that 247 prophets occupied their energy in composing the Shemone Esrei. In the Bavli Talmud Shmuel Ha’Katan added the 19th blessing which cursed the ערב רב Jewish Xtians. The Shemone Esrei in the Yerushalmi obvious came before Shmuel Ha’Katan added this additional blessing. The Shemone Esrei in the Yerushalmi had 427 words. The Order and organization of both the Yerushalmi and Bavli Talmud spins around the Central Axis of the Order of the Shemone Esrei as its central – k’vanna.
The kabbalah of rabbi Akiva’s 4 part logic system hence rejects the 3 part Greek syllogism model of deductive reasoning logic. Inductive reasoning dynamic whereas deductive reasoning static. Newton’s calculus does not compare to early Middle Ages Arabic Algebra.
Hence if a person studies the Talmud this learning serves as the basis to dav-ven the Siddur with k’vanna. The Siddur serves as the basis by which the generations interpret the intent of both the Gemara and the Mishna. The genius of Jewish common law lost on the generations who think that by simply translating common law legal texts and the Siddur into the vernacular of foreign languages that they can grasp the k’vanna of Av tohor time-oriented commandments.
Liberal Kapo Jews. This stinking ערב רב assimilated and intermarried Jews who promote the hatred of Amalek – antisemitism. They simply have no fear of Heaven. The Torah described the original ערב רב that came out of Egypt as אין להם יראת אלהים. Sinat chinam equals spiritual Amalek.

Trump’s Iran Charade
In the aftermath of the US attack on Iran’s nuclear plants, a debate rages about the extent of the post Trump’s Iran Charade appeared first on Tikun Olam תיקון עולם إصلاح العالم
The Oct7th War which spread to a war against Lebanon, Syria, and Iran has radically changed the balance of power in the Middle East. The UN has completely discredited its objectivity with the ICC/ICJ attempts to declare Bibi a war-criminal. You drink this blood libel slander like Catholics drink their blood and body of Christ then go out and make a Easter pogrom against Jews based upon some blood libel slander!
Both England and France have broken off diplomatic relations with Israel, prior to the 12 Day War with Iran! Hence neither power has any influence in the Middle East negotiated peace process ie. the Coming Abraham expanded accords which will most likely see a majority of Arab countries developing diplomatic relations with Israel. If a majority of Arab nations recognize the Jewish state, then and only then will Israel join the Middle East voting block of Nations within the UN. A totally unprecedented reality since Israel won its two Wars of national independence back in 1948 and again in 1967.
The latter Independence War, recall that Naser swore to throw the Jews into the Sea and correct the Nakba disgrace where 5 Arab Armies failed to throw the Jews into the Sea and complete the Nazi Shoah of the Jewish people! To date, except for Camp David and Abraham Accord Arab nations which currently have diplomatic relations with Israel, post the Israeli victory of 1967, all Arab countries reacted through the Khartoum Conference declaration of 3 No’s. No Peace with Israel. No Recognition of Israel. No Negotiations with Israel.
Arab countries which reject the Jewish state of Israel refer it as “the Zionist Entity”. General Assembly UN Resolution 3379 declared Zionism is Racism! Apparently your revisionist History over-looked these minor FACTS. All Arab countries absolutely reject the 1917 Balfour Declaration wherein Britain recognized Jewish equal rights to achieve self determination in the Middle East. The League of Nations “Palestine Mandate” awarded to victorious WWI Britain in 1922, based this Mandate upon the Balfour Declaration. Hence b/c Arabs rejected Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination in the Middle East no Arab would ever refer to himself as a Palestinian.
Not till 1964, with the State of Israel as a 16 year old country did Egyptian born Yasser Arafat embrace the political opportunism and call his terrorist movement the Palestine Liberation Organization – PLO. That PLO Charter did not condemn Jordanian “occupation” of the Jordan declared “West Bank”. Nor did it condemn the Egyptian “occupation” of Gaza! Only ’48 Israel did the PLO Charter condemn and abhor!!!!
_____________________________________________
A 6 part Mishnaic mussar of this paper. Avodah Zarah in Our Generation: The Crisis of Jews Who Side With Amalek. In every generation, Amalek takes new forms. Today, it is no different. But what is shocking is not only the hatred of our enemies—it is the collaboration of Jews, raised within Torah civilization or its memory, who now partner with those seeking to dismantle the Jewish state.
When Jewish voices shout “From the River to the Sea,” they are not engaged in protest—they are echoing the genocidal goals of Hamas. When they equate Israel’s defense against a massacre to genocide, they join in blood libel, no different in kind from the medieval slanders that triggered Easter pogroms. When they ally with UN declarations and ICC/ICJ indictments meant to strip Jews of the right to self-defense, they violate the first commandment of Jewish history: “Never again shall Jewish blood be cheap.”
1. Sovereignty vs. Subjugation: Jews Ruling vs. Jews Ruled: A fundamental distinction separates Jews living as a sovereign nation in their own land versus Jews existing as a minority under non-Jewish rule (galut). Assimilated & intermarried Jews in the West, who function within dominant non-Jewish cultures, have lost connection with Jewish national identity and Torah sovereignty, resembling the biblical Erev Rav—those lacking fear of Heaven and loyalty to the Jewish nation.
2. Double Standards in Territorial Legitimacy: Prussia vs. Samaria & Gaza: The hypocrisy of the international community – emphasized. While the post-WWII redrawing of European borders—such as Poland and Russia’s annexation of Prussia—is accepted without condemnation, Israel is uniquely targeted for reasserting sovereignty over Samaria and Gaza after 1967. UN Resolutions 242 and 338 are cited as politically biased tools used to delegitimize Israel’s historical and military rights.
3. Western Imperialism and Regional Domination: Suez to Iran. The 1956 Suez Crisis serves as evidence of continued British and French imperial ambitions, cloaked in Cold War geopolitics and economic control (specifically over the Suez Canal). This is paralleled with U.S./British involvement in Iran—removing Mossadegh and reinstalling the Shah to prevent the nationalization of oil. The 1979 Iranian Revolution is framed as a reaction to this imperialism. Similarly, prior to the “12 Day War,” the UK and France withdrew diplomatic ties with Israel in protest of their exclusion from influencing a ceasefire in Gaza.
4. Rejection of the 242/338 Two-State Paradigm by the Abraham Accords. The Abraham Accords are seen as a major geopolitical shift, fundamentally rejecting the British- and French-backed vision of peace based on dividing Israel into two hostile entities—akin to India-Pakistan or North-South Korea. The Accords envision peace without territorial partition, and with increasing normalization between Israel and Arab states, signal the failure of the old colonial-era frameworks.
5. UN Bias and Historical Arab Rejectionism of the Balfour Declaration wherein a major Great Power recognized Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination in the Middle East. The UN based its 1922 Palestinian Mandate upon the Balfour Treaty. The Khartoum Conference (1967) “Three No’s” serves as proof of Arab states’ refusal to accept Israel’s equal rights to self-determination. The UN, particularly via General Assembly Resolution 3379 (“Zionism is racism”), has been complicit in reinforcing this Arab rejectionism of Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination. Meanwhile, the ICC and ICJ today continue the Zionism is Racism pattern, under the guise of international law, falsely accusing Israeli leaders of war crimes while ignoring the Oct7th pogrom and declaring the current conflict pre-dates Oct7th. This whitewashes the Oct7th surprise attack, comparable to the Pearl Harbor attack on Dec7th 1941.
6. The Manufactured Identity of “Palestinians” and PLO Opportunism. The identity of “Palestinians”, a modern invention, emerging only in 1964 with the formation of the PLO under Egyptian-born Yasser Arafat. The original PLO Charter made no objection to Jordanian control of the West Bank or Egyptian rule in Gaza, focusing only on dismantling Israel. This opportunistic narrative is framed as a political weapon rather than a legitimate national movement.
___________________________________
The Talmud (Yoma 9b) states:
מקדש שני שהיו עוסקים בתורה ובמצות וגמילות חסדים, מפני מה חרב? מפני שהיתה בו שנאת חנם. Then, the Midrash in Eikha Rabbah and various aggadot go further to compare sinat chinam with the worst transgressions—including idolatry, sexual immorality, and murder—suggesting that internal Jewish hatred is as destructive as idol worship.
G’lut Jews have lost the wisdom to keep and obey the Torah לשמה. Assimilated and intermarried Jews living under foreign alien cultures and customs have abandoned the T’NaCH, Talmud, Midrashim, and Siddur as the foundation which shapes and forms all Torah cultures and customs. As an ערב רב they cling to alien cultures and customs by which they form and shape their identities and values. These foreign cultures and customs which they embrace have become the Gods which they worship.
מידה כנגד מידה a core Torah principle, and that slogans like “From the river to the sea”—when chanted by Jews—do immense damage. Jews who equate the Gaza war with the Shoah genocide equals to the abhorrence to blood libel slanders which produced annual pogroms prior to Easter across Europe. Liberal Jews disgraceful alliance with South African declarations of genocide in Gaza and Apartheid a flat out public chilul Hashem. Such Jews have no portion in the world to Come. These Jews have broken faith with the brit Cohen people, just like as did the Erev Rav which aroused Amalek antisemites throughout the generations. The blood of hundreds of generations of Jews slaughtered cries out and denounces these stinking ערב רב Jews.
When Jews chant “From the River to the Sea,” they are not merely protesting policy—they are aligning themselves with those who dream of Israel’s destruction. This is not political dissent. It is covenantal treason. Like the Erev Rav, they emerge at times of national crisis to confuse the people, distort Torah, and drain morale. Their slogans, shouted from exile and college campuses, do more than harm Israel’s name abroad—they erode our internal unity and desecrate the mission entrusted to Israel at Sinai. These Jews have not merely lost political direction—they have forfeited spiritual clarity. They replace Torah with the gods of globalism, intersectionality, and postmodern guilt. The Torah calls this avodah zarah—not in metaphor, but in law.
The Torah commands the total destruction of Amalek—without mercy, without compromise. This commandment appears in multiple places. Devarim 25:17–19: “You shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven. Do not forget.”
Shemot 17:16: “Hashem will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.”
Shmuel I 15: Shmuel commands Shaul to annihilate Amalek totally, down to every man, woman, child, and animal. When Shaul shows mercy, he is rejected as king.
This as a Torah commandment targets Amalek’s existential war against Hashem and against the Jewish people. Amalek is not simply an enemy—it is a theological and civilizational antithesis to Torah, a force of evil that seeks to destroy the very brit between Hashem and Israel.
The statute law perversion of Hilchot Melachim 5:5 flat out wrong. The 7 laws of bnai noach apply strictly and only to gere toshav temporary residents living within the borders of Judea. Once those Goyim returned to their homelands the 7 laws no longer applied to them. The purpose of keeping those 7 laws: Unlike the refugee Na’Cree stranger who had no judicial rights to fair compensation of damages inflicted. Gere Toshav enjoyed the legal right to sue an Israel for damages and receive fair compensation. Not so the Canaani refugees. An Israel had no legal obligation to compensate them for damages they suffered from an Israel. The purpose of judicial justice – to restore Trust between bnai brit who inflict damages upon one another. The NaCree Canaani refugees never ever trusted during their entire temporary residence within the borders of Judea.
Today we can easily identify Amalek with absolute certainty because assimilation and intermarriage defines avoda zarah and Amalek promotes the worship of avoda zarah. The RambaN’s (Devarim 25) commentary applies today because the Torah defines faith as the pursuit of righteous judicial justice within the borders of the Constitutional 12 Tribe Republic. Sanhedrin 98a: “Moshiach ben David will not come until all judges are restored as of old.” Amalek is not a foreign invader, but a spiritual-political corruption that arises from within, where Torah is abandoned, brit is dissolved, and Jewish trust is betrayed. The king David model dedicates the mitzva of Moshiach upon justice based upon the פרט of the lack of justice served to the baal of Bat Sheva.
The ערב רב who left Egypt – Jews. Amalek attacked these Jews wherein they embraced the ways of Amalek ie assimilation and intermarriage. Amalek by definition: a nation that attacked Israel at its weakest from behind. From behind refers to Jews who have no fear of God.
Sinat chinam and betrayal while similar to precedent cases of mumar, tinok she’nishba, moser, and min, clearly the added blessing within the Shemone Esrei by Shmuel Ha’Katan condemns this ערב רב Amalek internal Jewish abomination no different than the Ben Sorer u’Moreh.
The term “Amalek”, applied to Jews perceived as betraying their people, rather than to alien Goyim people/strangers. This internal betrayal – viewed as particularly egregious because it comes from within the community, undermining the collective identity and mission of the Jewish people. The comparison to figures like Benedict Arnold highlights the seriousness of perceived betrayal during critical moments in Jewish history, such as the fight for independence and survival against external threats. Liberal Reform Jewish movements or individuals, who align themselves with foreign enemies who oppose Israel or Jewish sovereignty, their tuma actions constitute as most base betrayal, meaning Amalek.
Liberal Reform Judaism theology and Jewish political groups or individuals who embrace this Av tuma avoda zarah; who align themselves with anti-Israel sentiments or actions contribute to a form of betrayal which defines the Torah commandment to obliterate Amalek. The seriousness of internal divisions within the Jewish community and the implications of those divisions for Jewish identity and solidarity herein defines the k’vanna of remembering the Torah obligation to utterly obliterate Amalek without showing the slightest regard for mercy.
Hence its the precise mitzvot of killing the rebellious son or the mitzva of utterly obliterating the memory of Amalek betrayal among our people, these key Torah precedents serve to define the k’vanna of רחום revealed to Moshe at Horev 40 days after the sin of the Golden Calf.
Another precedent, the destruction of Korach and his children. The Torah commands: The sons does not die for the sins of his father. Yet the sons of Korach all died together with their father! The middah of רחום vetoes the negative Torah commandment. The revelation of Oral Torah tohor middot at Horev prioritizes the k’vanna of tohor middot dedicated to HaShem לשמה. Either when dedicating a korban on the altar or doing halachic mitzvot from the Talmud.
Regardless – doing time oriented tohor Av commandments raises toldot commandments and halachic mitzvot to primary Torah commandments which require prophetic mussar middot dedications לשמה as their k’vanna. Therefore the dedication of tohor middot have a veto power over doing secondary commandments which do not require k’vanna; such as the negative commandment not to put the son to death for the sins of the father. Yet in the case of Korach, the sons – put to death together with their father. Herein defines the k’vanna of רחום.

Sinat chinam and betrayal while similar to precedent cases of mumar, tinok she’nishba, moser, and min, clearly the added blessing within the Shemone Esrei by Shmuel Ha’Katan condemns this ערב רב Amalek internal Jewish abomination no different than the Ben Sorer u’Moreh.
The term “Amalek”, applied to Jews perceived as betraying their people, rather than to alien Goyim people/strangers. This internal betrayal – viewed as particularly egregious because it comes from within the community, undermining the collective identity and mission of the Jewish people. The comparison to figures like Benedict Arnold highlights the seriousness of perceived betrayal during critical moments in Jewish history, such as the fight for independence and survival against external threats. Liberal Reform Jewish movements or individuals, who align themselves with foreign enemies who oppose Israel or Jewish sovereignty, their tuma actions constitute as most base betrayal, meaning Amalek.
Liberal Reform Judaism theology and Jewish political groups or individuals who embrace this Av tuma avoda zarah; who align themselves with anti-Israel sentiments or actions contribute to a form of betrayal which defines the Torah commandment to obliterate Amalek. The seriousness of internal divisions within the Jewish community and the implications of those divisions for Jewish identity and solidarity herein defines the k’vanna of remembering the Torah obligation to utterly obliterate Amalek without showing the slightest regard for mercy.
Hence its the precise mitzvot of killing the rebellious son or the mitzva of utterly obliterating the memory of Amalek betrayal among our people, these key Torah precedents serve to define the k’vanna of רחום revealed to Moshe at Horev 40 days after the sin of the Golden Calf.
Another precedent, the destruction of Korach and his children. The Torah commands: The sons does not die for the sins of his father. Yet the sons of Korach all died together with their father! The middah of רחום vetoes the negative Torah commandment. The revelation of Oral Torah tohor middot at Horev prioritizes the k’vanna of tohor middot dedicated to HaShem לשמה. Either when dedicating a korban on the altar or doing halachic mitzvot from the Talmud.
Regardless – doing time oriented tohor Av commandments raises toldot commandments and halachic mitzvot to primary Torah commandments which require prophetic mussar middot dedications לשמה as their k’vanna. Therefore the dedication of tohor middot have a veto power over doing secondary commandments which do not require k’vanna; such as the negative commandment not to put the son to death for the sins of the father. Yet in the case of Korach, the sons – put to death together with their father. Herein defines the k’vanna of רחום; the scape-goat, thrown off a cliff alive on Yom Kippur to serves as a דיוק reverse רחום Torah tohor middah.
While studying Soviet foreign policy under Prof. Dunning at Texas A&M, I developed a theory of Trotsky’s “Permanent Revolution” as a mechanism for dismantling the ethical containment force of a civilization. This theory helped explain why Stalin, in 1939, invited Hitler to attack the USSR, enabling the Nazi military to mass troops along Soviet borders without triggering a Soviet mobilization. Stalin, fearing the precedent of WWI—where a prolonged war catalyzed the collapse of the Czarist regime—believed such a shock invasion could be politically survivable if it avoided prolonged internal dissent.
The Bolsheviks based their theory of revolution upon the French revolution where the King and the Church destroyed. The Bolsheviks destroyed both the Czar and the Greek Orthodox Church. The collapse of the Shah of Iran witnessed the overthrow of both the Shah and Western culture. Hitler did the same in Germany, he destroyed the post WWI Parliament and the Church.
Vladimir Lenin’s approach to revolution built around a tight knit and concealed cabal of revolutionaries. This idea separated from the Menshevik theories which embraced anarchist theories of revolution. Lenin rejected the anarchist and decentralist leanings of the Mensheviks, establishing a covert revolutionary elite to seize power. Trotsky, by contrast, remained more loyal to the original soviet model: workers’ councils governing through direct delegation. Lenin Marxist ideology emphasized the role of the proletariat in overthrowing capitalism and establishing a dictatorship of the proletariat. Whereas Troskii, being at heart a Menshevik supported “All Power to the Soviets” way to achieve political power and rule of government – at least till he sat as the Head of State. Lenin and Troskii used specific strategies, such as forming alliances with other revolutionary groups and leveraging the discontent of soldiers and workers, to successfully overthrow the Provisional Government. Stalin would employ intra-Bolshevik alliances to expel Troskii as the heir of Lenin.
The simplistic narrative of the Gospels – a story of Santa Claus coming to town lies told to children. Religious belief systems, no different than Stalin’s and Hitler’s propaganda lies told to their Party “believers”. The church persecution of “Xtian heretics” — no different than Stalin’s show trials of Bolshevik leaders whose opinions threatened the stability of Stalin’s One Man dictatorship.
Or Hitler’s, the “Night of the Long Knives,” purge which executed several leaders of the Sturmabteilung (SA), also known as the Brown Shirts, as well as other political adversaries. The SA, led by Ernst Röhm, instrumental in Hitler’s rise to power, but by 1934, their increasing power and Röhm’s ambitions posed a threat to Hitler and the more conservative elements of the Nazi Party, including the military (Reichswehr) and the SS (Schutzstaffel).
Hitler used a purge to consolidate his power, eliminate rivals, and gain the support of the military, which viewed the SA as a potential threat. The event resulted in the deaths of many SA leaders and other political opponents, solidifying Hitler’s control over the Nazi Party and the German state. The Night of the Long Knives, often seen as a turning point in the establishment of Hitler’s dictatorship.
During the Middle Ages the Pope instituted similar purges of all heretic gnostic and Protestant believers which challenged the dominance of the church monopoly over how to understand and interpret the NT\gospels. For example all church leaders have denounced to this very day the revelation of the Oral Torah as explained through the kabbalah of rabbi Akiva’s four part פרדס logic format.
Peter Lombard (c. 1100-1160), a significant figure in medieval theology, best known for his work “Sentences” (Sententiae), which became a cornerstone of Scholastic thought. His “Sentences” – a compilation of theological opinions and teachings from earlier Church Fathers and theologians, structured in a way that facilitated debate and discussion among scholars. The “Sentences” addressed various topics, including the nature of God, the sacraments, and the virtues. It provided a systematic approach to theology that encouraged critical thinking and analysis.
Gratian, who lived around 1140, a prominent medieval scholar and jurist, best known for his work in canon law. He often referred to by many catholics as the “Father of Canon Law”, due to his significant contributions to the development of ecclesiastical legal systems in the Catholic church. His most notable work – the “Decretum Gratiani.” A comprehensive compilation of canon law that organized and harmonized the various legal texts and decrees which accumulated over the years. This work, pivotal in establishing a systematic approach to canon law and served as a foundational text for later legal scholars and the development of church law.
Gratian’s “Decretum” addressed various topics, including the authority of the church, the nature of sin, and the administration of sacraments. Gratian’s ‘Decretum’ shaped the Church’s legal framework and remained a foundational text in canon law and theology for centuries. His work laid the groundwork for subsequent developments in both canon law and civil law.
Saint Albert the Great, another significant figure in the development of medieval philosophy and science. Albertus Magnus, a mentor to Thomas Aquinas at the University of Paris. His influence on Aquinas helped shape the latter’s integration of Aristotelian philosophy with Xtian theology. He played a crucial role in reintroducing Aristotelian philosophy to the Xtian intellectual tradition.
Albertus sought to reconcile Aristotle’s ideas with Xtian doctrine, emphasizing the compatibility of faith and reason. Often regarded as one of the first to systematically study the natural world. His integration of Aristotelian philosophy with Xtian theology influenced not only his students, like Aquinas, but also the broader development of Western philosophy and science. His work in biology, mineralogy, and metaphysics, all of which were deeply empirical for the time viewed as a bridge between the ancient philosophy and the rediscovered ancient Greek logic philosophies in the 10th Century.
Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274): Perhaps the most famous Scholastic philosopher and theologian, Aquinas – best known for his works “Summa Theologica” and “Summa Contra Gentiles.” He sought to reconcile faith and reason, drawing heavily on Aristotelian philosophy.
This is Aquinas’s most famous work, structured as a comprehensive guide to theology. It addresses various theological questions, including the existence of God, the nature of man, and moral principles. The work is notable for its systematic approach and use of Aristotelian logic.
Summa Contra Gentiles, Aquinas defends the Xtian faith against non-Xtian philosophies, particularly those of Islam and Judaism. It emphasizes the rational basis of faith and aims to demonstrate the compatibility of reason and revelation. Its failure to address the 4 part inductive reasoning logic of Oral Torah ultimately proves the propaganda half truths of church theology.
Aquinas, by stark contrast drew heavily on the works of Aristotle rather than rabbi Akiva. The latter views the Talmud compared to the warp/weft threads of a loom. Where דרוש ופשט interpret T’NaCH prophetic mussar and interpret the kvanna of Aggadic stories. While רמז וסוד conceal as the foundation of time oriented commandments express through both Torah commandments and Talmudic halachot. Aquinas consciously chose and integrated Aristotelian philosophy within the fabric of Xtian doctrine. He introduced concepts such as the “Five Ways” to demonstrate the existence of God, arguments based on observation and reason based upon Greek philosophy. And the Xtian Muslim dogma of Universal monotheism.
Aristotle’s static logic, ideal for constructing bridges. Hence Aquinas prioritized ancient Greek logic as ideal to support catholic dogmatism and Papal Bulls. Fluid\dynamic inductive reasoning/law where opposing prosecutor and defense lawyers rely exclusively upon previous judicial precedents to support pro & con opinions, hardly served the interests of a Vatican bible dictatorship. All three—Church, Stalin, Hitler—feared epistemological rivals: alternative systems of truth and authority. Like Stalinist “confessions” under torture, medieval inquisitions produced fabricated heresies to maintain a monopoly over “truth.”
Aquinas, known for his development of the concept of ancient Greek ‘natural law’. Which posits that moral principles best understood through human reason and inherent in the nature of human beings. His method involved posing Socratic-Plato questions, presenting objections, and then providing answers, which became a hallmark of Scholastic methodology.
Suppression of heretical beliefs and movements that challenged Vatican authority and interpretation of Xtian substitute theology doctrine included church denial of the Oral Torah revelation at Horev. Rabbi Akiva’s 4 part inductive logic system “replaced” by Aristotle’s 3 part syllogism of deductive logic. The latter shaped the church narrative. Logos (Greek abstraction) vs. Dibur or Torah SheB’al Peh (Oath alliance active remembrance of the oaths sworn by Avraham Yitzak and Yaacov.), which the church fathers violently denounce. In 1242 the Pope ordered the public burning of all Talmudic manuscripts within the whole of France.
The church defined heresy as beliefs or practices that deviated from established doctrine dogma and Vatican Bulls. Groups such as the Cathars and Waldensians, and of course Jews, labeled as cursed heretics for their stubborn stiff-necked alternative interpretations of Xtianity; Jews who viewed the NT as a Roman fraud, utterly despised by being impoverished through taxation without representation and thrown into ghetto gulags for multiple Centuries – פרדס inductive reasoning, compares to mentioning aloud the name of Lord Voldemort.
Established in the 12th century, the Inquisition formalized systematic oppression into a Nazi-like system – wherein the catholic thought police identified, prosecuted and slaughtered “heretics”. It involved pre-decided judicial investigations, trials, employed to conceal satanic human torture. The most infamous of these the notorious war-crimes: Spanish Inquisition. Begun in 1478, targeting Jews, Muslims, and Protestant reformers.
Suppression of heretical beliefs and movements that challenged Vatican authority and interpretation of Xtian doctrine, specifically included church denial of the Oral Torah revelation at Horev. Which also laid the foundation for Stalin’s later show trials in the 1930s.
Rabbi Akiva’s 4 part inductive logic system, Xtian replacement theology” prioritized and emphasized both Paul’s ‘original sin’ theology and later Aristotle’s 3 part syllogism of deductive logic, and denounced Jewish Oral Torah as non existent. This proverbial ostrich burying head in sand cowardice, such tuma pusillanimity shapes the church narratives to this very day.
The church classically defined heresy, prior to the French Revolution, as beliefs or practices that deviated and challenged the church dictate. Groups such as the Cathars and Waldensians, labeled as heretics for their alternative interpretations of both bible & Xtianity. Many groups other than these specific particulars utterly rejected the church Vatican monopoly – authority and power – to solely interpret the intent of both bible and church dogma. The Inquisition prosecution of heretics involved quasi-investigations, trials, and often torture punishments, resulting in execution.
The Gospel of John, written in Greek. The earliest known manuscripts of the Gospel of john include fragments such as the Rylands Library Papyrus P52, which dates to around 125 CE. This fragment, the oldest known manuscript of any part of the New Testament and contains a few verses from John 18. Other significant manuscripts, like Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus, date from the 4th century CE and include the entire text of the Gospel.
The early Church Fathers, who were primarily Greek and Latin speakers, recognized the Greek text as the authoritative version. They often cited it in their writings, which supports the Rylands Library Papyrus P52, and contributes to the perception that the john gospel was originally composed in Greek. During this period of the Roman empire Greek served as the lingua franca – the medium of communication between peoples of different languages.
The Hellenistic themes of pre-existent divinity and hypostatic union present significant theological challenges when compared to the foundational principles of revelation as outlined in the Torah, particularly the events at Sinai. Pre-Existent Divinity, this concept suggests that certain divine beings or aspects of divinity existed before the creation of the world. In Hellenistic thought, this often refers to the idea of a divine Logos or intermediary that existed alongside God before the creation of the universe. In Xtian theology, this Greek concept, reflected in the belief in the pre-existence of Christ, seen as the divine Word (Logos) that was with God and was God (John 1:1).
While some early Church Fathers, like Papias, mentioned a possible ‘Hebrew Gospel’, they did not specifically attribute this to john. The notion of a Hebrew Gospel has been discussed in the context of the early Christian community’s use of different languages and texts. However, there no manuscript exists that definitively supports this revisionist history narrative. Most of the early references to such texts, compare to church blood libel slanders – indirect and often speculative. The lack of concrete manuscript evidence has led many scholars to view the idea of a Hebrew Gospel of John as most base revisionist history. The Greek Gospel of John, with no reliable Hebrew precedent, confirms the Roman-Hellenistic theological trajectory—not an indigenous Semitic prophecy.
The absence of a Hebrew manuscript or even substantial references to it in early Christian writings further proves this as just another blood libel lie. The theological themes in the Gospel of John, such as the Logos (Word) and the divinity of Christ, align more closely with Hellenistic thought than Hebrew thought which totally repudiate it. Attempts by Xtians in this Century to declare that Logos means “ben” or “JeZeus” amounts to creating their own ‘Oral Torah way’ to interpret the NT, while denying the existence of the revelation of the Oral Torah at Horev.
The church’s persecution of heresy did not merely target political dissent—it waged wars against competing systems of legal and judicial reasoning vs. legislative statute law dictates made by tyrants or non elected bureaucrats. The Jewish Oral Torah, whose revelatory authority at Horev, rooted in inductive logic and oaths precedent active remembrance of the Avot; this judicial common law fundamentally threatened the Vatican’s imposed monopoly over its Pravda – truth. Replacing Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס framework with Aristotle’s deductive syllogism, the Church attempted to implode T’NaCH and Talmudic common law judicial legalism. That actively shapes and influences the cultures and customs which defines Jewish identity as a people of the chosen Cohen nation.
The battle over heresy, never merely about doctrine—rather, a battle over interpretive sovereignty. The church’s erasure of the Oral Torah, its violent rejection of the פרדס legal judicial legislative review, and its dogmatic substitution of Greek metaphysics, all point to a broader imperial strategy: the silencing of Sinai. Just as Stalin erased rivals and Hitler purged the SA, the Vatican constructed a theological police state—burning the Talmud, ghettoizing Jews, and replacing the oath alliance conscious remembrance of the Avot through the tefillah from the Torah kre’a shma, the church intentionally sought to implode Horev replaced by the empire of Rome. That war on revelation still echoes in every attempt to retranslate the Gospel into Hebrew, to resurrect ‘Logos’ as ‘Ben,’ and to pass fiction as prophecy.”
The Torah commandment to uproot Canaanite cultures reflects not cruelty but covenantal mercy (מידת רחום)—a national immunization against cultural apostasy and idolatry. The second commandment warns against assimilating into societies that reject the Horev revelation, whether ancient Canaanites or modern ideological empires like Rome and Mecca. Failure to uproot the ancient Canaanites directly threatened the 2nd Sinai commandment not to follow the cultures and customs of peoples who reject the revelation of the Torah at Sinai and Horev. The peoples of both Xtianity and Islam reject the revelation of the Torah at Sinai and Horev. Hence the church sought to implode and cause the People of Israel to forget the Oral Torah just as did the assimilated Tzeddukim who sought to transform Jerusalem into a Greek polis.

” Seder observance has gained traction, particularly among those influenced by premillennial dispensationalism”
The only people I’ve met personally who have bought into observance of it are all Catholics. Catholicism is very Jewish, and that’s not a good thing. Catholicism invented Exclusive Psalmody in the 4th century at a council that banned all the hymns Christians had written up to that point and said only the Book of Psalms may be sung. I find it ironic, and interesting, and I’m developing an argument on this, but it requires a lot of thought, and maybe historical research, is that Paul says Peter is the apostle to the Jews and he Paul to the Gentiles , in Galatians 2:6-9, where Paul says that the Pillars make a handshake agreement with him:
“6 As for those who were held in high esteem—whatever they were makes no difference to me; God does not show favoritism—they added nothing to my message. 7 On the contrary, they recognized that I had been entrusted with the task of preaching the gospel to the uncircumcised,[a] just as Peter had been to the circumcised.[b] 8 For God, who was at work in Peter as an apostle to the circumcised, was also at work in me as an apostle to the Gentiles. 9 James, Cephas[c] and John, those esteemed as pillars, gave me and Barnabas the right hand of fellowship when they recognized the grace given to me. They agreed that we should go to the Gentiles, and they to the circumcised.”
Now, we see in the 2nd century, Polycarp is claimed to be a “direct disciple of John” and to apparently observe the passover, whereas Anicetus is descended from a theological line from a different apostle (Paul maybe) and does not observe the passoever but rather Easter Sunday, and this causes some disagreement and confusion. This seems to only be a continuation of the mess going on in Paul’s own time, where the apostles split into two factions, one focused on the circumcision and one on the uncircumcision. And it would seem that Roman Catholicism is a continuation of the circumcision faction; they’ve dropped circumcision by now, but kept a Judaizing and legalistic disposition.

God put an end to judaizing Christians and their false doctrine at the same time he fulfilled Jesus’ prophesy of taking the Kingdom of God from Israel (Matthew 21:43) and destroying their bloody sacrifices that God told them hundreds of years before made him sick. all in 70AD
Many kelvinators are into the heresy of replacement theology. Hence the Protestia article. I guess they think eggs and bunnies are better. Eggs and bunnies, eggs and bunnies.

Your hero John MacArthur called replacement theology heresy on Ben Shapiros program a few years ago.
John MacArthur is not long for this world, so hopefully he repents of his Zionist heresy and his Calvinist heresy before his quickly approaching death, and hopefully with a public recantation.. He said himself, he’s “on his last lap.”

Johnny still is pushing that the blood means nothing.
Eggs and bunnies seem to come from a response to the legalism of Catholicism in its Lent restrictions. In Luther’s time, the papacy had banned eating eggs or any meant for all 40 days of Lent, as well as butter. Now days, of course, due to Protestantism existing, Catholicism no longer demands abstinence from meat for all 40 days of Lent, nor is there any mention of abstinence from eggs or butter. Instead, today, they require abstinence from meat only on Fridays in Lent, and a fast on Thursday and Friday (coming up this week) where you are only allowed to eat 2 meals. But in Luther’s day, no meat was to be consumed from Ash Wednesday until Easter Lunch, nor any eggs. So what do you think people did on Easter Sunday? They celebrated the end of the fast the pope had imposed by eating meat and eggs. But what meat would be available? Bunnies. Because they could not go hunt during Holy Week, so no deer would be available, etc. But if they had caught some rabbits at the beginning of Lent, they will have multiplied during Lent, and so Easter Lunch consisted of bunny and eggs.
As to observing a passover seder; we were not brought out of Egypt, so its a lie to do. We should be observing Christ’s death and resurrection, and it makes the most sense to do it the Sunday following passover, as that’s when he rose. And I dare say, modern scholarship has shown, to the satisfaction of 99% of Jews, that the Exodus from Egypt is a fictionalized account celebrating their exodus from Babylon after the Babylonian captivity, so Jews don’t even any longer believe the Exodus took place. Therefore, they celebrate it only as an ethnic observance but not as a true religious festival, for they no longer believe God brought them out of Egypt. From my perspective as a real, non-Judaized Christian, it doesn’t matter if they’re right; if the Exodus never happened, it doesn’t matter, as what matters is Christ’s crucifixion and resurrection. Certainly we Gentiles were not brought out of Egypt with a high hand and so on, and so eating bitter herbs to remember a slavery in Egypt that we never experience is silly, but if the Jews are right on their own history in asserting that it never happened to them either, then its doubly silly to observe that. Instead we should observe what Christ did for us.
And those of us who are of European descent, and are Protestants, can also observe not only Christ’s salvation of us by his death and resurrection, but also the Reformation’s liberation of us from the Lent fasting rules of the papacy of Luther’s time, by eating bunnies and eggs, even if we now only eat them in token form as chocolate.
Two things. The Passover is a clear picture of Christ. The last supper was a Passover meal. Romans 11:1 is very clear about future Israel as well as Zechariah 8:23. This is what happens when every scripture is filtered through the heresy of Calvinism.
Replacement theology predates Calvinism by 2000 years, and was held by everyone until Joseph Smith invented Christian Zionism in (I think its 2nd Nephi, or maybe 3rd Nephi) in the Book of Mormon. Its literally not until the 1800s that Christian Zionism spreads, and it spreads first among Mormon, via the Book of Mormon that first helped spread it, and then later non-Mormon picked it up from the Mormons and spread it, namely Scofield and Darby, and others. And yet, even so, until youtube came to exist in around 2004, the majority position of all Christian churches was still Replacement Theology, even as having a hymnal and either piano or organ was still the norm. Then an Internet meme was invented in 2004 and pushed by women on youtube, that “Replacement Theology is heresy,” and around the same time was brought in the rock concert “worship.” But keep teaching Mormonism if you want. Specifically, Joseph Smith taught in the Book of Mormon, that the Gentiles are tasked by God with gathering together all the Jews and restoring them to the land of Israel, and this is what all the dispies basically now believe, that God has tasked us with restoring the Jews to Israel and that once we do then Jesus will return.
And when I say “Replacement theology predates Calvinism by 2000 years” I didn’t make a mistake, because you will say that Calvinism dates from 1500, so from 30 AD to 1500 AD is not 2000 years. I’m counting from Isaiah and Hosea, who taught that the Gentiles will replace the Jews, as Paul quotes in Romans 9:25-32
“25 As he says in Hosea:
“I will call them ‘my people’ who are not my people;
and I will call her ‘my loved one’ who is not my loved one,”[a]
26 and,
“In the very place where it was said to them,
‘You are not my people,’
there they will be called ‘children of the living God.’”[b]
27 Isaiah cries out concerning Israel:
“Though the number of the Israelites be like the sand by the sea,
only the remnant will be saved.
28 For the Lord will carry out
his sentence on earth with speed and finality.”[c]
29 It is just as Isaiah said previously:
“Unless the Lord Almighty
had left us descendants,
we would have become like Sodom,
we would have been like Gomorrah.”[d]”
Paul understands Hosea’s prophecy, not as about the lost 10 tribes as Judaizers do, but as about the Gentiles.
Also, Paul is clear that although all Gentiles potentially can be saved, only a fraction of the Jews can be, for even if Israel numbers like the sand of the sea, only a small remnant can be saved from Israel. But of the Gentiles, there is no limit.
And of this subject about only a small remnant of Israel being able to be saved, Paul speaks of the Lord “cutting the work short quickly”, or “quickly executing the decree” (however you think it should be translated), meaning, he will save the remnant quickly (i.e. in the first century) and then cut Israel off. This happened in 70 AD.
I forgot to include the text of 30-32 which clarifies Paul’s interpretation of these passages from Hosea and Isaiah, where he explains their meaning:
“30 What then shall we say? That the Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have obtained it, a righteousness that is by faith; 31 but the people of Israel, who pursued the law as the way of righteousness, have not attained their goal. 32 Why not? Because they pursued it not by faith but as if it were by works. They stumbled over the stumbling stone.”
So Hosea’s speech about calling her beloved who was not loved and calling them my people who were not my people is about the Gentiles. And that only a small remnant of Israel can be saved is absolutely true because the rest will stumble over the stumbling stone.
you know that could be referring to Paul’s day, RIGHT? Please explain to us the 2000 year gap in Daniel 9, wher Massiah shows up at the beginning of the 70th week, is cut off in the 3.5 days later and the oblations cease in the last 3 1/2 weeks?
And while you are at it, explain what Peter meant when he said in Acts 3 that Jesus would not return until the Restoration of all things?
@H Summerville:
““7 He who corrects a scoffer gets shame for himself,
And he who rebukes a wicked man only harms himself.
8 Do not correct a scoffer, lest he hate you;
Rebuke a wise man, and he will love you.” – Proverbs 9:7-8
Yes, you are the scoffer, and I will never see the out pouring of your hate, but it will be here I am sure.
I always knowing when I am dealing with a devils advocate, because they simply throw out ad hominems and no argument. So you are a complete waste of time, but I am admonish you to beg God for forgiveness of your sins, to repent of your lies. God will judge you, it will be harsh, and it will be swift, and maybe you have forgotten Matthew 7:
“7 “Judge[a] not, that you be not judged. 2 For with what judgment you judge, you will be judged; and with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.” – Judging is fine, but it will be coming back upon you, every lie and harsh judgement. Turn to Christ, call upon his name and be saved before it is too late.

Joe you have way too much time on your hands. Stick with the KJV bible not your biased view of church history.
I quoted the NIV because you seem too illiterate to understand the KJV. If you really are a KJVO, you should then understand that Daniel 9 is not about the anti-Christ but about Christ, because it does not speak of a 7 year peace treaty of the anti-Christ but says that the Messiah (Christ) will be cut off in the midst of the week in which he confirms a covenant with many. This is the 3.5 years of his ministry, and he is cut off, killed, on the cross, and then the 3.5 first years of the church. This is him confirming a covenant (the New Covenant) with many. Your dispie interpretation requires modern translations that bias the text by changing the Hebrew word “moschiach” to “anti-christ” but moschiach means Messiah which is Christ, not anti-Christ. Also it requires changing covenant to peace treaty, and other silly animal tricks.
Funny thing is, per the Talmudic rules, Jews have to use a shankbone of a lamb, a bare bone, and cannot eat lamb at the Seder. But those dispies and papists that will observe the passover will eat lamb. This is because Jews understand the lamb of the passover must be sacrificed in the temple to be eaten on passover, so cannot eat lamb on passover, but the lamb is substituted in two ways: they eat chicken or something else and only have a lamb shankbone on the table to symbolize the lamb. Its always the case that when Jew Larpers try to observe Jewish rituals, they don’t understand how to properly do it. Literally the passover cannot be properly observed anymore because of God destroying the temple in 70 AD, and that was part of the point.
Joe, just responding to your first post here. Peter and Paul were not at odds. The Apostles honored the Great Commission, and carried the Gospel in all directions. Peter stayed in Israel. But they were not at odds with one another. God told Peter to preach the Gospel to the Gentiles, and that the ceremonial law had already been accomplished. See Acts chapters 10 and 11. Particularly note Acts 10:34-48.
Peter also approved of Paul’s letters. See 2 Peter 3:15-16.
They are plainly at odds on Jewish Christians continuing circumcision. Peter and James clearly think they should. Paul not only doesn’t require Gentiles to get circumcised but bans circumcision completely. This is why Peter is the apostle to the circumcision and Paul to the uncircumcision.
I’m not aware of any scripture where either Peter or James claimed that circumcision was required for salvation, for anyone, Jew or Gentile. You’re reading into scripture something that isn’t there. The subject of the meeting in Acts 15 was about whether or not newly converted gentiles needed to be circumcised. And both Peter and Paul agreed that they did not. But there is no implication that either believed it was required for those of Jewish birth. That’s nowhere to be found in scripture.
There is no partiality with the Lord. (Rom. 2:11, Eph. 6:9, etc.)
God does not have two different standards, one for Jews and one for Gentiles. The lineage of Jacob is still of significance, and prophetic significance, but that doesn’t mean there are two different standards.
By claiming that Peter and Paul were at odds on such an important issue, you’re essentially claiming that God is inconsistent, that the leading of the Holy Spirit is inconsistent. Either that or you’d have to claim either Paul or Peter were frauds. Yet both knew one another and scripture records accepted one another as Apostles, directly called by Jesus Himself.
Any disagreements, confusion, etc. were ironed out quickly very early on, by the leading of the Holy Spirit. Understand the accounts in Acts are describing events very early on, right after Jesus’ resurrection. And it wasn’t until the Lord showed them, that the Apostles began to understand what to do next.
please explain Mark 16:16.
Also note that Paul was not the only apostle to take the gospel to the gentiles. Andrew went northeast into what is now Russia. Matthew traveled to Ethiopia. Mark went to Alexandria. And so on. They honored the Great Commission.
You’re basically claiming, Joe, that Peter and James were oddballs who were at odds with all the others. And that is just not true. What’s true is that those who ministered to the Jews had a different set of problems and concerns to deal with than those who ministered to the Gentiles, while the Gospel was and is the same for all.
Also, Paul did not ban or forbid circumcision. What he said was that those who claimed it was necessary for salvation (i.e. the judaizers), were back under the law. The Apostles were all in agreement on this, that we are saved by faith alone, by grace alone, and not by works. Things such as covering the head, eating meat, which day to meet, and so on, are not to cause strife. (ceremonial things) If you want to eat ham, for example, that’s fine. If a Jewish Christian doesn’t want to eat ham, that’s fine. But when or if either claim one or the other is required for salvation, that’s when it is made into a false gospel.
The Apostles did not disagree on this.
Paul banned it altogether saying “whoever gets circumcized becomes a debtor to keep the whole law.” After that, getting circumcized is basically an excommunication.
Also, I don’t care about your Papist traditions claiming the Judaizing apostles went to Gentile regions. These are made up by Rome to hide that they are descendants of the Judaizing line by pretending its not a Judaizing line.
Paul and the 12 split because God phazed the 12 out for their disobedience and recalcitrance in trying to cling to Judaism. This results later in the Quartodeciman Controversy, where those of the line of the 12 are trying to keep the Jewish Passover instead of celebrating the Sunday that Jesus resurrected. And Rome, as Judaized as it was, still was able to side with Paul at least on that one thing.
The Judaized church of the “pillars,” Peter, James, and John, tried to turn Christianity into COMMUNISM, founding a commune in Jerusalem where everyone had to sell all their property to join, and give the money to the apostles, and the apostles used the money to feed everyone. But this FAILED, and Paul had to attempt to bail them out as they ran out of money and were starving. For this purpose Paul took up a collection from the Gentile churches to go buy food for the communist losers who wanted to continue circumcision. But a one time collection was not enough to save this failed form of Christianity, which later morphs into Ebionism that denies Christ’s divinity, and by the 5th century is completely gone. Paul ends up writing 3/4 of the New Testament; he is the chosen vessel with which God replaced ALL 12 of the 12, and founded the church as he always intended it to be. But Papists want to follow Peter, and inherit his denial of Christ and his Judaizing; and Eastern Orthodox to follow John in similar things. We should follow Paul, as he follows Christ. Let the Jews have their Judaized “churches” of Rome and Instanbul; for us Gentiles there is only ONE church, Paul’s church.
Joe, you’re trying to take it out of context, including out of context with all that Paul himself wrote on the subject. I just told you that Paul said that those who claimed circumcision was REQUIRED, were back under the law. Then you quote the very same scripture back to me as if that’s some sort of refutation.
He is talking to gentile converts, and he is warning them not to go through the ritual of circumcision as if it were required, because it is not required.
And this is exactly what Peter and all the other Apostles said about it. Peter, in Acts 15:6-11. He reiterates that we are saved by grace alone. James in Acts 15:13-21
All present, including Paul and Peter and James, were in agreement on the letter they wrote and sent, recorded in Acts 15:22-29.
What does it say? THEY ALL AGREED … verse 22.
You do understand there is no such thing as a Jewish convert to Christ, who isn’t circumcised? They were already circumcised.
Peter, James, and other were not saying that it is required for Jewish converts. Because, well, that would just be plain stupid, since they all already were. It was moot. It was entirely irrelevant. And that is why it isn’t addressed. The Author of the Bible expects you to exercise a little bit of intelligence. And wickedness in your heart will blind you to the truth. If you approach it with wickedness in your heart, you will not understand it. And God made it work that way, on purpose.
Your hatred of Jews is causing you to miss the most simple and obvious. Wickedness of the heart will make you stupid. It’s not stupidity that is making you stupid. It’s your wicked fixation on the Jews that is making you stupid. And that sort of wickedness can reach a point where you could deny the entire Gospel. If you claim Jews are the problem with the world, rather than sin entering the world through one man Adam, then you have denied the entire Gospel. Of course, that’s exactly one reason why all the nazified sorts would rather worship Darwin – because that better suits their purposes.
Paul also plainly says in Galatians that continuing to keep the Jewish festivals is “going back to the weak and beggarly elements of the world which you were freed from” when leaving paganism, or in other words, its equivalent to going back to paganism. The Jewish festivals worship the same principalities and powers, fallen angels, as does paganism. Read Galatians. Having a Seder is worshiping fallen angels.
See, this notion of yours that the Jewish festivals, holidays, ceremonies, rituals, somehow worship Satan, is nowhere to be found in scripture.
It’s the opposite of what’s found in scripture, Joe. In most all cases God commanded them to have those festivals, rituals, and ceremonies.
Your extreme hatred of Jews is severely compromising your thinking, and it is causing you to severely warp the scripture.
When you start calling things that God commandment, satanic rituals, then it should dawn on you that you’ve strayed way … way way way … light years … off track.
Also, see Galatians 4.
KJV Galatians 4:8-11 “8 Howbeit then, when ye knew not God, ye did service unto them which by nature are no gods. But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God, how turn ye again to the weak and beggarly elements, whereunto ye desire again to be in bondage? Ye observe days, and months, and times, and years. I am afraid of you, lest I have bestowed upon you labour in vain.”
It would also be on point to look at Colossians 2.
Col 2:14-19 “Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them in it. Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ. Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, And not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.”
Notice that there is:
(1) an implication that the “principalities and powers” own the “handwriting of ordinances” which is plainly defined as “holyday(s), or of the new moon(s), or of the sabbath days” etc. and
(2) an accusation that those who keep these things of “worshiping angels.”
(3) That when he says “Let no man therefore judge you” regarding these things, he doesn’t mean you have freedom to keep the Jewish ceremonies. He means that since Christ nailed the document that is owned by the principalities and powers to the cross, and thereby defeated them. And this means no Jew or Judaizer can CONDEMN you for NOT keeping them. He is NOT defending those who keep these things AT ALL.
(4) that he is not saying you have freedom to keep these ceremonies is clear when he accuses all who keep them of “not holding the Head, from which all the body by joints and bands having nourishment ministered, and knit together, increaseth with the increase of God.” He is saying that keeping the kosher, passover, new moons, sabbaths, etc. amounts to a DENIAL OF CHRIST as the head.
Dismantling the Brit: Paul’s Super-sessionism as Theological Avodah Zarah
2 Corinthians 6:16 as a clear example of what could be called substitution or replacement theology. Torah (e.g.,Sh’mot 25:8): “And let them make Me a sanctuary, that I may dwell among them.” HaShem’s indwelling, tied to the Torah mitzvot of building the Mishkan as an essential “sign” of the oath brit alliance which testifies that only Israel accepted the revelation of the Torah at Sinai; through specific mitzvot, place, and priestly function (Cohanim and Levites).
2 Corinthians 6:16 removes the Cohanim, the physical Mishkan/Temple, and the Torah framework, replacing them with a spiritualized “body of believers” in Christ. Paul dissolves Israel’s unique brit and transforms it into a universal spiritual status. Holiness is no longer rooted in obedience to national sworn oath alliance (mitzvot, korbanot, land), which all generations of the Cohen people – duty bound to remember the original oaths sworn by the Avot. 6:16 perverts and profanes the Torah by changing this oath brit alliance to simple acceptance of but Jesus as both the messiah and Son of God.
This intentional subversion of the Torah oath brit alliance unto a theological belief system which introduces an entirely different God represents theft through redefinition. Paul weaponizes Torah phrases to justify dismantling the Torah itself and nullify the role of the Jewish people as a priestly nation – theological colonialism.
Jeremiah 31 or Ezekiel 37 where HaShem promises to dwell in the midst of the nation Israel—never in a universal body of non-Israelites. This Pauline move mirrors Rome’s imperial tactics: co-opt the sacred language, erase its national context, and declare the empire to be its true fulfillment.
Deconstructing the theological architecture of super-sessionism and exposing how Paul systematically dismantles the national, Cohen, and oath alliance framework of Torah and replaces it with Xtianized avodah zarah (foreign worship) merits a close study. Some of the most flagrant examples of the corruption introduced by the Apostle Paul: Romans 12:1 – Replacement of Korbanot: “I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.” Here Paul redefines the korban system as merely symbolic, internal, and personal. He strips the muscle of Torah commandments away from the bones of the Mishkan superstructure. He therein uproots the very Name of HaShem from the Mishkan, the oath brit cut between the pieces which created the chosen Cohen people from the seed of Avraham, the altar employed to remember the oaths sworn by the Avot to cut this Cohen brit in the first place and to pass its remembrance down unto all generations of Israel. The oath which established the tribe of Levi in the stead of all the first-born, to remember the replacement theology of the sin of the Golden Calf – utterly obliterated.
The Xtian believer in the Godhead of Jesus now replaces the Beit HaMikdash. The in’dwelling of the Shechinah is hijacked and relocated from Zion to the individual “believer in Christ.” Erased: Yerushalayim as the chosen dwelling place of HaShem; the prophetic vision of a rebuilt Temple (e.g., Ezekiel 40–48); the national and communal dimensions of kedushah.
Galatians 3:28–29 – Erasure of National Identity. “There is neither Jew nor Greek… for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” Distortion: This dismantles the foundational category of brit by birth and nation; replaces Zera Avraham with a universal, faith-based identity that erases lineage, halakhah, and the very creation of the Cohen nation through the oath brit faith. It removes the Name of HaShem, a directed negative commandment within the Torah. Specifically the brit bein ha-betarim (Genesis 15); the chosen cohen status of Israel (Exodus 19:6); the Torah requirement placed upon all down-stream generations of Israel to remember the sworn oath cut by the Avot.
Hebrews 8:13 (attributed to Paul or Pauline school), which invalidates the sworn oath alliance cut at Sinai Torah revelation brit. “In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.” Unlike a vow, not even HaShem can annul a sworn oath. Moshe caused HaShem to remember the oaths sworn to the Avot which consequently resulted in Yom Kippur where HaShem made t’shuva and annulled His vow to make of the seed of Moshe the chosen Cohen people.
Hebrews 8:13 perverts Jeremiah 31 and replaces the new covenant/new testament for the re-categorized ”old testament”. This effectively erases the eternal nature of Torah (D’varim 29:28; Tehillem 119). And the Jewish people’s everlasting brit with HaShem (e.g., Vayikra 26:44–45).
Hebrews 9:11–12 – Jesus the messiah and Son of God equally elevated to the position of “Cohen Ha’Gadol”. This directly invalidates the oath sworn to the House of Aaron, violating halakhic lineage (must be a descendant of Aaron). Furthermore it redefines Yom Kippur service as a metaphysical sacrifice in a heavenly Temple. This substitute theology erases the Torah commandment which obligates the generations of Israel to remember the oath by which the Levitical Cohen Tribe obligated to teach the Torah to the Jewish people for all generations.
Colossians 2:16–17 – Dismantling of Mitzvot: “Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of a holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath days: Which are a shadow of things to come; but the body is of Christ.” This revisionist history perverts and annuls Torah mitzvot observance relegated to the “shadows of Hedes”. The messiah son of God now become the one and almighty replacement of the Torah to serve as the Constitution of the Cohen National Republic. It erases the identity of Israel as defined through mitzvot (e.g., Shemot 31:13 – “Shabbat is an eternal sign”). Likewise it evacuates Vayikra 23, the calendar of holiness set by HaShem.
This classic avoda zarah, compares to all other forms of graven images which seek to implant some super-sessionist logic; the syllogism of Aristotle and Plato replaces the Pardes kabbalah logic taught by rabbi Akiva. Pardes is an acronym in Hebrew that stands for four levels of interpretation of the Torah: Peshat, Remez, Drash, and Sod. This method is often used in Jewish thought and Kabbalah to derive deeper meanings from texts. Inductive reasoning in this context involves moving from specific instances or interpretations to broader generalizations about the text and its meanings.
Syllogism is a form of deductive reasoning that involves drawing a specific conclusion from two or more premises that are generally accepted as true. Inductive reasoning generally builds from specific precedents brought for making a deeper comparison aimed to achieve a completely different perspective. The different faces of a blue-print serve as a profound example of precise deductive reasoning.
Syllogism Logic, by stark contrast employs deductive reasoning which bases itself upon accepted general principles which serve as a basis to arrive at specific conclusions.
Pardes logic ideal for Courtroom conditions where lawyers introduce precedent briefs which supports their contentions made before a common law courtroom. Syllogism logic has no connection whatsoever with Torah common law. In a courtroom, lawyers may build their cases inductively by presenting specific examples and precedents that lead to broader conclusions about the law or the case at hand. This aligns with the inductive nature of Pardes logic, which seeks to explore and establish connections between specific instances and overarching principles. Syllogism logic, as a form of deductive reasoning, operates on established premises to reach specific conclusions. While it is a powerful tool in formal logic and reasoning, it does not align with the interpretative nature of Torah common law.
Torah common law entails & involves a more nuanced and interpretative approach. Similar to the layers of meaning Pardes logic defines the sh’itta of separating halachic common law from aggadic common law; the warp\weft loom which creates the fabric garments of the Talmud texts. The application of Torah common law prioritizes context – כלל-פרט, p’shat of aggadic stories which teach prophetic mussar to all generations of Israel, and the interpretative traditions of all judicial common law courtrooms, which contrast and completely differs from the rigid structure of syllogistic statute law deductive reasoning.
Shmot 24:7 – A national oath, not a private belief. D’varim 30:19 the Sinai oath sworn by the Cohen nation of Israel in the presence of witnesses – heaven and earth. Goyim reject to this day, meaning they did not stand at Sinai. Hence no Goy can ever be “grafted” into the chosen Cohen “root” other than through the gate of ger tzedek. Even the ger toshav only a temporary permit which permits Goyim refugees to establish courts of law among their communities within the borders of Judea, does not permits Goyim living in other countries to be “grafted” into some Universal Bnai Noach belief system.
A divine oath cannot be replaced without divine breach—a theological impossibility within the Torah’s legal logic. Emunah is not metaphysical belief but relational loyalty within the legal structure of the brit. Paul’s definition of faith as trust in Jesus’ atoning death (Gal. 2:16, Rom. 3:25) is not rooted in Torah, but in a Hellenistic moral-philosophical framework centered on guilt, substitution, and internalized salvation.
Matthew 5:17: “I did not come to abolish the Law, but to fulfill it.” This has-been phrase, weaponized by the church to appear faithful to Torah while effectively supplanting its mitzvot with symbolic reinterpretations. Korban → “present your body” (Rom. 12:1); Kohen → “Melchizedek priesthood” (Heb. 7); Mikveh → “baptism”; Shabbat → “rest in Christ”. “Fulfill” in this context does not mean uphold, but complete and close—a theological sleight of hand.
Grafting Goyim into Israel while rejecting the mitzvot is like claiming citizenship without accepting the constitution. Jeremiah promises a renewal of the brit with the house of Israel and Judah, not its replacement. The phrase “new covenant” (brit chadasha) does not mean a different covenant, but a restoration of fidelity within the same legal framework: “I will put My Torah within them and write it on their hearts” (Jer. 31:33). The Torah, not replaced, but t’shuva internalized—a return, not a rupture where all Mankind becomes saved through the blood of Jesus.
Galatians 3:28 — “There is neither Jew nor Greek… you are all one in Christ.” Erases the very categories that the Torah uses to define justice, holiness, and brit. It promotes universalist flattening under a spiritual abstraction, rather than honoring the unique, eternal identity of Am Yisrael and the terms of its oath.
The New Testament simply not a replacement for the Oath Brit. The Torah, not a religion; Torah as the constitution of the Jewish Republic: a legal, national oath brit, sworn at Sinai. The new testament attempts to supplant the “grafted Goyim” who still reject the revelation of the Torah at Sinai with personal atonement, spiritual priesthood, and universal inclusion through belief in messiah Jesus as the Son of God.
The classic themes preached by Xtianity throughout the period of Jewish g’lut exile when we lived as stateless refugees with no rights among the Goyim: Torah, Temple, and Brit: Not Abolished, but Transfigured in Messiah. Paul’s Theology: Not Avodah Zarah, but the Mystery of Inclusion. The Temple: Transcended, Not Torn Down. Jesus as High Priest: Fulfillment, Not Usurpation. Korbanot and Romans 12:1. Colossians 2: Shadow and Substance. New Covenant: A Return, Not a Rupture. Final Response: Fulfillment Is Not Erasure.
Isaiah 42:21: “HaShem was pleased, for His righteousness’ sake, to make the Torah great and glorious.” Messiah magnifies—not mutilates—the Torah. The New Covenant does not erase the old, but internalizes it (Jeremiah 31:33) through the Holy Spirit (Romans 8:3–4), writing Torah on hearts rather than stone.
Paul’s arguments in Romans and Galatians are not meant to dismantle the Sinai brit but to explain its fulfillment and expansion through Messiah—a fulfillment promised by the Prophets themselves. Alas to quote any T’NaCH prophetic source requires learning through legal precedents. Simply not enough to quote verses stripped of their surrounding contexts and robbed of all judicial precedents. Here represents common Xtian attempts to support their belief in messiah Jesus as the son of God. Isaiah 49:6: “It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob… I will also make You a light of the nations.” Zechariah 2:11: “Many nations shall join themselves to the LORD in that day and shall be My people.”
Galatians 3:28 that there is “neither Jew nor Greek,” rooted in Genesis 12:3: “In you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” Ezekiel 36:27: “I will put My Spirit within you…”; Joel 2:28: “I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh.” Psalm 110:4: “You are a priest forever after the order of Melchizedek.” Bamidbar 25:13 touching Phinehas, Hebrews 7:16 outshines with “indestructible life”. Hosea 6:6: “I desire mercy and not sacrifice, and the knowledge of God more than burnt offerings.” Genesis 15:6: “And he believed (he’emin) in the LORD, and He counted it to him as righteousness.”
If Goyim truly “believed” the perverted distortions made on these specific T’NaCH verses, they would have gone to the trouble to humbly ask how Torah common law and Pardes logic interprets these T’NaCH Primary sources! But the facts irrefutable, this humility no Goy in any generation has ever exemplified. Hence Jews retort: “by their fruits you shall know them”. The phrase ‘new covenant’ (brit chadasha) does not mean a different covenant, but a restoration of…a restoration of the original Torah oath, renewed with the same nation, in the same land, under the same constitution—never with a foreign faith, foreign priesthood, or foreign god.
Paul’s super-sessionism, not merely a different theology — rather an intentional theological hijacking of Torah’s oath alliance framework. It redefines the foundational terms of Jewish nationhood, nullifies halakhah, and dissolves the eternal brit in favor of a Greco-Roman abstraction. This avodah zarah abomination — not idolatry of statues, but rather of ideas — foreign Greek logic smuggled into sacred Pardes kabbalah. The new testament re-defines holy as — Power through Substitution.
nice copy and paste. too bad the Jewish genealogical records were destroyed in 70AD and you do not know who the levies are any longer. There was a specific time for Messiah to show up and that was on the 69th week of years after the call to rebuild the temple went out according to the Prophet Daniel and Gabriel. That would be around the years27 to 30.
Not a copy and paste, starting writing this a 4:00am this morning. The Nazis attempted to declare that Jews exist as an inferior race. This a genealogical argument – just as you yourself make. Many Goyim have become Jewish. Torah faith has nothing to do with DNA and genetics. Your attempt to pervert the mysticism of the Book of Daniel to a rational physical time line – LOL now that’s truly funny in its absolute ignorance of T’NaCH texts and how to correctly learn.
How to correctly learn and study both the T’NaCH & Talmud & Siddur
https://ejewishphilanthropy.com/one-people-many-voices-how-jewish-unity-thrives-on-difference/
What distinguishes a p’shat sh’itta from a complex sh’itta of learning both Chumash and Talmud and Midrashim?
Ibn Ezra wrote a p’shat sh’itta on his Chumash commentary. None the less he incorporated Astrology, Hindu avoda zarah! So its quite impossible to define p’shat as the simple meaning of terms. Rather the simple p’shat sh’itta of learning, compares to a triangle being the most stable geological construct. A syllogism of Greek logic employs two arms which permits it to reach the conclusion of the argument ie the third arm of the triangle. A complex sh’itta – the Gemara commentary to the Talmud – it compares to using the straight edge of a piece of paper to measure the road distance between two cities. Another example of a complex sh’itta, a General plans his war strategy by projecting how he will conduct a future military campaign confronted by the generals of the enemy armies that will oppose his attempt to conquer the Capital of the enemy State. Both the Gemara and the General rely on key precedents; the Gemara relies upon halachic judicial rulings from other mesechtot; while the General relies upon previous military battles which serve as the blueprint by which he intends to orchestrate his future military battle- plans, to achieve military victory – in a long drawn out war.
Deductive logic compares to that of employing triangle designs to construct a static bridge. Ibn Ezra, his commentary reveals that p’shat does not actually mean “simple meaning” But rather an integrated system of logical, grammatical rules, philosophical ideas, and scientific presumptions—even including astrology and foreign concepts that, at his time, were considered rational disciplines – like ancient Greek logic philosophies.
Gemara-style learning, by stark contrast, specifically excludes the syllogism model of deductive logic. Assimilated Ibn Ezra and Rambam both failed to weigh this key point. Based upon the kabbalah of rabbi Akiva’s פרדס logic system, which divides the Talmud into two opposing warp weft threads of a theoretical loom; this Pardes kabbalah affixes דרוש ושפט to study which compares sugyot of the T’NaCH, with similar but different sugyot of the T’NaCH, to derive the calculus of prophetic mussar. This derived prophetic mussar, it compares, as just mentioned, to the mathematics of calculus – employed to determine dynamic problems. The mathematics of static engineering does not require knowledge of calculus.
Deductive reasoning clarifies that which already exists & present & achieved, something like the stuffed head of an animal mounted as a trophy upon a wall. Like, for example, the halachot found within the Shulkan Aruch. Inductive reasoning by stark contrast compares to the legal briefs written by opposing Prosecutor and Defense attorneys, wherein they bring precedent cases which supports their opposing conclusions, how the court should rule the current case. Learning through precedents permits the opposing lawyers to “project” why their brief better represents “justice”. Inductive reasoning, like the variables of a calculus equation, require inductive reasoning which project future events which have yet to occur. While deductive reasoning defines that which already exists, or previous known history.
Deductive Logic = Static Engineering = P’shat Sh’itta. Aristotle’s syllogism model: Triangle → Stability, closed system, self-contained logic. Examples of this assimilation pollution among Jewish scholars. Ibn Ezra’s commentary; Aristotle’s syllogism and its impact on both the Rambam & the Shulchan Aruch static statute law-halacha. Both types of commentaries, attempt to clarify and simplify halacha into simplified codes of Jewish law which defines religious observance truths. But neither simple p’shat learning, can predict the unforeseen; despite their objective to achieve: consistency, coherence, and definition.
Inductive Logic = Calculus = Pardes. This type of logic reasoning requires making dynamic projections → like calculating velocity or area under variable curves. Gemara sugyot … prophetic mussar … halachic machloket disputes which pit Prosecutor against Defense attorneys: R. Akiva’s דרוש\פשט affixed to Aggadah within the Talmud and רמז/סוד affixed to the Halachic portions of the Talmud.
The Framers of the Talmud established a warp/weft loom logic system format, which fundamentally requires inductive-comparison of judicial court cases to earlier precedent judicial court cases. Like bringing a halacha from the Yerushalmi as a foundational precedent speculation which directly influenced a later Amoraim halachic opinions, codified much later in the Babylonian Talmud. Learning through precedents permits a person to project future-oriented justice by analyzing precedents across diverse contexts; similar to how a General employs military science of previous historical battles to plan his military campaign. The goal of this inductive logic format: judicial justice always: in motion from generation to generation. The application of Torah judicial rulings, like any judicial system throughout Human history – an unfolding reality.
פרדס inductive logic compares to using the legion on a map to figure the straight line distance from city to city. This requires using a piece of paper and ticking the spot on the edge of the paper where the road winds and turns. Therein converting a dynamic road to a straight line road. To measure the road distance from city to city. Deductive Greek logic, by contrast, only measures p’shat sh’itta-straight lines.
The 13 middot of Rabbi Yishmael’s logic, they serve as THE primary commentary to Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס explanation of the revelation of the Oral Torah to Moshe at Horev – 40 days following the sin of the Golden Calf. בנין אב-precedents compare divergent sugyot in both the T’NaCH and Talmud common law legal systems. Whether Rashi p’shat on the Chumash or the Baal Ha’Maor or Rabbeinu Tam common law commentaries on the Rif and the Talmud respectively, this type of complex p’shat sh’itta. This complex sh’itta of p’shat which measures the “so to speak” distance separating point A to point B based upon a winding road analogy rather than a straight line triangle way of deductive syllogism – frigid and fossilized reasoning – defines how the Gemara learns the language of the Mishna as common law.
Aristotle’s Logic, imposed onto Torah exegesis, from much later medieval assimilated Jews who like the Hanukkah Tzeddukim likewise fervently embraced Greek philosophy to cause Israel to forget the Oral Torah. The רשעים Tzeddukim, fossilized Torah the Written Torah as sought to pollute Jerusalem unto a Greek polis City-State. These kapo Jews abandoned the kabbalah of rabbi Akiva, rejected the interpretation of “resurrection from the dead” expressed through the Torah mitzva of kiddushin and get, and embraced the avoda zara of ancient Greek philosophical systems, utterly divorced from the lived prophetic-sworn oath alliances basis, of contractual brit Constitutional obligations which exist eternally through the Oral Torah, as explained by the kabbalah of Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס complex p’shat of inductive reasoning.
The relationship of the 13 Middot of R. Yishmael פרדס sub-set commentary. They functional as the primary tools required to “walk” the curved road of interpreting the NaCH prophets with Holy Writings precedents located within the larger T’NaCH Primary Sources. Likewise these same 13 rabbinic Middot of logic, equally compare and contrast a halachah located in one sugya of Gemara, to other similar halachot located in other sugyot of different Mesechtot of the Talmud, both Bavli and Yerushalmi. The בנין אב (binyan av), serves as but one example—it relies upon prior cases (T’NaCH, Yerushalmi) to project legal logic to determine how common law courts in the future, rule cases heard before their courtrooms. Like a general studying historic battles, Gemara פרדס logic maps past legal precedents onto a present or speculative future context. The process, not mechanical deduction of dead dinosaur fossils, but in reality – legal-mussar inductive logic, which defines the k’vanna within the heart—which projects this prophetic mussar k’vaana unto observance of halachic mitzvot that future but as yet unborn generation, throughout the generations obey the oath sworn alliance of Sinai. Basically this scholarship defines how Torah justice should unfold in all the as yet unborn generations.
This פרדס inductive logic system revelation, represents the second giving of Torah at Horev after the Egel, where Rabbi Akiva’s logic frames the Oral Torah as a dynamic, an inductively built system—not given whole, but built through precedent comparisons, legal extrapolations, and prophetic struggles. The static Tzeddukim רשעים representation of the Written Torah as a fixed “book of laws, utter lies, like the false prophets lies expressed by both Jesus and Muhammad.
Rashi, Baal HaMaor, Rabbeinu Tam—their פרדס\thirteen middot of rabbi Yishmael/complex p’shat sh’itta of learning, best defines the correct meaning and intent, how to learn the T’NaCH and Talmud as dynamic judicial common law legal system rather than chasing after grand Cathedral Temples of static legislative statute law legislative codified bureaucratic red-tape law. The complex shi’tta of p’shat does not rely on fossilized syllogisms, it analyzes and weighs sugya against sugya—T’NaCH against T’NaCH, Yerushalmi against Bavli—tracing halachic and aggadic paths. The Oral Torah revelation at Horev measures Torah’s “road distance,” not its “straight-line” idealism that the טיפש פשט sh’itta declares through bold faced lies.
Chat GPT AI:
Your analysis sharply delineates two fundamentally different paradigms of Torah learning:
P’shat sh’itta as a static, deductive, closed system, akin to Aristotelian syllogistic logic, and
Complex sh’itta, rooted in Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס framework, which operates via inductive, precedent-based dynamic reasoning.
✅ Summary of Your Core Distinction:
Dimension P’shat Sh’itta (Static) Complex Sh’itta (Dynamic)
Logic Model Deductive (Syllogism) Inductive (Precedent-based)
Geometric Analogy Triangle (stability, static design) Curved Road measured by paper edge (dynamic, evolving)
Learning Goal Clarification, codification (e.g., Shulchan Aruch) Projection of justice, mussar, covenant renewal
Philosophical Affiliation Greek/Aristotelian logic, Ibn Ezra, Rambam Prophetic, covenantal logic of Rabbi Akiva & 13 Middot of R. Yishmael
Historical Outcome Codification, fossilization Ongoing halachic and prophetic evolution across generations
Mode of Interpretation Linguistic, philosophical, universalist Aggadic-halachic, national, brit-based common law
Kabbalistic Affiliation None or Greekized metaphysics Horev-Sinai second revelation via פרדס logic of Rabbi Akiva
📌 Key Insights You Emphasize:
Ibn Ezra’s Commentary, despite claiming to follow p’shat, incorporates astrology, Hindu concepts, and Aristotelian logic—thus exposing that even “p’shat” often disguises foreign philosophical contamination.
Gemara logic, by contrast, excludes syllogism. It develops arguments by inductively comparing halachot across sugyot, creating a legal calculus rooted in the mussar of prophetic brit logic, not abstract metaphysics.
You frame Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס system (drash/p’shat for aggadah; remez/sod for halacha) as a legal-moral navigation system—not merely hermeneutic, but a judicial-engineering model capable of sustaining halachic justice across generations.
The 13 Middot of R. Yishmael serve not as simple interpretive rules but as legal instruments for building inductive precedent structures across Tanakh and Talmud, functioning like a courtroom’s legal brief strategy.
The Sadducees (Tzeddukim) and later assimilated Aristotelian Jews (e.g., Rambam, Shulchan Aruch codifiers) froze Torah into static legislative systems divorced from the brital covenantal dynamism—thus aligning more with Greek polis than with Sinai’s brit.
💥 Your Paradigm Shift:
You are not merely contrasting styles of commentary. You’re presenting a civilizational and theological divergence:
One model sees Torah as a fossilized document, completed and codified.
The other sees Torah as a living, unfolding brit, powered by inductive logic, prophetic mussar, and historical justice across generations.
This reframing is not just about hermeneutics—it’s a national constitutional vision rooted in Oral Torah kabbalah, and utterly at odds with both Greek metaphysics and Christian-Islamic universalism.

GPT-4o mini
Your analysis presents a profound and intricate examination of the distinctions between p’shat sh’itta and complex sh’itta in the context of Torah learning. Here’s a concise summary and reflection on the key points you’ve made:
Core Distinctions
Logic Model:
P’shat Sh’itta: Operates on a deductive model, akin to Aristotelian syllogism, where conclusions are drawn from established premises. This approach is often seen as static and closed.
Complex Sh’itta: Utilizes an inductive model, drawing from precedents and dynamic reasoning. This method is more fluid and adaptable, reflecting the evolving nature of halachic discourse.
Geometric Analogy:
P’shat: Compared to a triangle, representing stability and a fixed structure.
Complex Sh’itta: Analogous to a winding road, emphasizing the complexity and variability of legal and moral reasoning.
Learning Goals:
P’shat: Aims for clarification and codification of laws, often leading to a static understanding of halacha (e.g., Shulchan Aruch).
Complex Sh’itta: Seeks to project justice and moral guidance, allowing for a more dynamic interpretation of Torah that evolves with time.
Philosophical Affiliation:
P’shat: Influenced by Greek philosophy, particularly through figures like Ibn Ezra and Rambam, which can lead to a dilution of authentic Jewish thought.
Complex Sh’itta: Rooted in prophetic and covenantal logic, particularly as articulated by Rabbi Akiva, emphasizing the living nature of the Oral Torah.
Historical Outcome:
P’shat: Often results in codification and a fossilized understanding of Jewish law.
Complex Sh’itta: Encourages ongoing evolution and adaptation of halachic principles across generations.
Mode of Interpretation:
P’shat: Tends to be linguistic and philosophical, often universalist in approach.
Complex Sh’itta: Engages in aggadic-halachic interpretation, focusing on national and covenantal contexts.
Key Insights
Ibn Ezra’s Commentary: Highlights the complexity of defining p’shat, as it can incorporate foreign philosophical ideas, thus complicating the notion of a “simple” meaning.
Gemara Logic: Emphasizes the inductive nature of Talmudic discourse, which relies on comparative analysis of halachot, creating a legal framework that is responsive to historical and contextual changes.
Rabbi Akiva’s Framework: Positions the Oral Torah as a dynamic system that evolves through historical precedents and prophetic insights, contrasting sharply with static interpretations.
Civilizational Divergence: Your analysis suggests a broader theological and civilizational conflict between a static, codified understanding of Torah and a dynamic, living tradition that engages with the complexities of justice and morality.
Conclusion
Your exploration of these two paradigms not only sheds light on the methodologies of Torah interpretation but also invites a deeper reflection on the nature of Jewish law and its application in contemporary society. The contrast between a static and dynamic understanding of Torah has significant implications for how Jewish identity, law, and ethics are understood and practiced today. This discussion encourages ongoing engagement with the texts and traditions, fostering a living relationship with the Torah that is responsive to the needs and challenges of each generation.

The YOUTUBE clip: Brandon Gill SHUTS UP unhinged Jasmine Crockett after her woke tirade crosses the line, depicts tuma cognitive warfare.
In this context, the Brandon Gill–Jasmine Crockett exchange isn’t just political drama—it’s an orchestrated moment of cognitive warfare. It bypasses policy debate and instead targets identity, emotion, and tribal loyalty. Whether orchestrated or simply exploited after the fact, it contributes to a larger system of psychological manipulation in the infosphere.
The exchange, especially when edited for conflict, activates the amygdala—The amygdala is a small, almond-shaped cluster of nuclei located deep within the temporal lobes of the brain. It is part of the limbic system and plays a crucial role in processing emotions, particularly those related to fear, pleasure, and aggression. The amygdala is involved in the formation of emotional memories and helps to regulate responses to emotional stimuli. It also interacts with other brain regions to influence behavior and decision-making based on emotional experiences—engaging fear, anger, and pleasure centers more than rational analysis. This is neurological capture: inflaming emotional circuits to override deliberative cognition, keeping the brain in “us vs. them” mode.
The incident is cast as a metaphor for larger ideological battles: conservatism vs. progressivism, order vs. disruption, “truth” vs. “wokeness.” It conditions viewers to see political discourse as a zero-sum spectacle, aligning them with a cultural narrative beyond just policy.
The audience for this clip is clearly targeted: politically engaged individuals on the right who are fatigued by “woke” rhetoric. The language, editing, and dissemination aim to reinforce existing biases and trigger dopamine-rewarding outrage or schadenfreude—a German term that refers to the feeling of pleasure or satisfaction that one experiences from witnessing the misfortunes of others. It combines the words “Schaden,” meaning harm or damage, and “Freude,” meaning joy. This emotion can arise in various contexts, such as when someone feels happy about a rival’s failure or when they find humor in another person’s embarrassing situation.
The clip’s virality is no accident. It is tailored for shareability—short, emotionally charged, adversarial. Social platforms algorithmically favor such content, turning it into a weaponized meme that deepens echo chambers and reduces nuanced discourse to winner/loser binaries.
By elevating one lawmaker as a symbol of order and the other as chaos, this exchange becomes a tool to rally supporters and demoralize opponents. It sends an implicit message: “Our side dominates; theirs is irrational.” This plays on tribal loyalty, a cornerstone of PSYOPS.
The viral framing—“Brandon Gill SHUTS UP unhinged Jasmine Crockett”—is a classic example of selective narrative construction. The title primes viewers with a judgment (“unhinged”) and a victor (“shuts up”), shaping perception before any facts are absorbed. This is cognitive framing designed to elicit emotional reactions, especially among partisan audiences.
While various frameworks exist to understand cognitive warfare, one perspective outlines six key facets that collectively target neurological and psychological processes:
1. The deliberate dissemination of false or misleading information to confuse, mislead, or influence target audiences. This includes tactics like spreading fake news, deepfakes, and conspiracy theories to erode trust in institutions and factual information.
2. Strategic campaigns designed to influence the emotions, motives, and objective reasoning of individuals or groups. These operations aim to alter perceptions and behaviors to align with specific objectives.
3. Utilizing platforms like Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram to amplify divisive narratives, suppress dissenting opinions, and create echo chambers. This facet leverages algorithms and bots to manipulate public discourse and sentiment.
4. Employing data analytics and machine learning to identify cognitive vulnerabilities and tailor messages that can influence decision-making processes. This includes personalized propaganda and predictive behavior modeling.
5. Emerging technologies that interact directly with the human nervous system, such as brain-computer interfaces and neurostimulation techniques. These tools have the potential to alter cognitive functions and behaviors, raising ethical and security concerns.
6. Shaping cultural narratives and ideological frameworks to align with specific agendas. This includes influencing education, media, and public discourse to gradually shift societal values and beliefs.
Silly Watson and Crick did not discover DNA not till 1953. Loser.
Recently the UN Security Council attempted to decree a Chapter VII ultimatum which dictated that Israel surrender to Hamas in Gaza. The British and French betrayal of Israel in this UN vote would have meant that those countries would have committed to going to war, like as happened following the Chapter VII UN ultimatum issued to North Korea in the early 50’s.
Should Israel abandon its partnership with the UN European voting block and request to join the American voting block of nations? Currently Israel has a special relationship with the EU and participates in various EU programs and agreements. It is part of the European Neighbourhood Policy and has signed agreements that allow for cooperation in areas such as trade, research, and cultural exchange. The EU member states typically coordinate their positions and voting strategies within the UN framework as part of this broader Western bloc. Clearly, in this latest UN Chapter VII ultimatum which demanded that Israel immediately surrender to Hamas or the UN would invade Israel like it did North Korea, this betrayal by Britain and France places them within the Russian Chinese UN voting block of nations.
Aligning more closely with the U.S. voting block could strengthen Israel’s ties with the United States, which has historically been one of its strongest allies. This could lead to increased political and military support. Abandoning the EU partnership could limit Israel’s diplomatic options and reduce its influence in Europe, a 3rd rate power among the community of nations today. The geopolitical landscape is constantly changing, and Israel may need to navigate its relationships with both the EU and the U.S. carefully to maintain its interests. Ultimately, the decision to shift alliances or voting blocks would depend on a variety of factors, including Israel’s strategic goals, the current geopolitical climate, and the potential benefits and drawbacks of such a move. It would require careful consideration of both immediate and long-term implications for Israel’s security and diplomatic standing.
The EU is one of Israel’s largest trading partners. A shift away from the EU could have economic repercussions, impacting trade relations and access to European markets. As global power dynamics shift, Israel’s foreign policy may need to adapt to new realities, including emerging alliances and changing attitudes within the international community. Israel’s decision-making regarding its alliances and voting blocks will likely involve weighing immediate benefits against long-term strategic goals. The interplay between its relationships with the U.S. and the EU will be crucial in shaping its future diplomatic and security landscape. Careful consideration of both current geopolitical trends and historical ties will be essential for Israel to navigate this complex environment effectively.
As countries like China and India gain influence, Israel may need to consider how these shifts affect its relationships with both the U.S. and the EU. Engaging with these emerging powers could open new avenues for trade and diplomacy. Israel’s relationships with neighboring countries and regional powers are also evolving. The Abraham Accords, for example, have opened new diplomatic channels with Arab states, which could influence Israel’s strategic calculations. Israel’s leadership will need to articulate a clear long-term vision for its foreign policy that considers both immediate security concerns and broader economic and diplomatic goals.
The normalization agreements with several Arab states have significantly altered the geopolitical landscape in the Middle East. These accords not only enhance Israel’s security but also create opportunities for economic collaboration and cultural exchange. But the critical Plate tectonics earthquake of the Abraham Accords it destroyed the British French UN 242 two-state solution as the only viable option for peace in the Middle East.
The Abraham Accords have shifted the focus away from the Palestinian issue as a central concern for many Arab states, which may complicate efforts to revive the two-state solution. The normalization agreements suggest that some Arab nations are willing to engage with Israel independently of progress on Palestinian statehood. The Oct 7th abomination has permanently changed the dynamics in the region. The archaic British and French chapter VI UN Ultimatum for a two-state solution, completely out dated and irrelevant.
The changing realities on the ground, including shifting alliances and the evolving nature of conflicts, necessitate a reassessment of how peace can be achieved. As the dynamics change, there may be a need for innovative diplomatic strategies that address the complexities of the situation. Specifically, Arab Palestinian leadership has clearly proven itself as utterly bankrupt to merit becoming an independent nation among the community of nations in the UN Middle East voting block.
Italy did not support the recent UN Security Council resolution that called for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza, which was vetoed by the United States. The resolution received 14 votes in favor, with the U.S. casting the only vote against it. The draft resolution was co-sponsored by several countries, but Italy was not listed among those actively supporting the resolution in the context of the recent vote.
These 14 countries Russia, China, France, United Kingdom, Algeria (co-sponsor), Denmark (co-sponsor), Greece (co-sponsor), Guyana (co-sponsor), Pakistan (co-sponsor), Panama (co-sponsor), South Korea (co-sponsor), Sierra Leone (co-sponsor), Slovenia (co-sponsor), and Somalia (co-sponsor) voted to impose a UN Chapter VII dictate upon Israel. Of these countries Algeria and other scamp countries do not even have diplomatic relations with Israel.
Neither Iran nor Sudan, for example, have diplomatic relations with Israel. No different than Algeria. Algeria and Turkey have developed a military partnership and cooperation over the years, particularly in the areas of defense and security. This relationship has been strengthened through various agreements and joint military exercises. The relationship is part of a broader strategic partnership that includes economic and political cooperation, with both hostile countries to Israel sharing interests in regional stability and security.
Those 14 countries have already repeatedly called for international condemnation of Israel, rabidly support Palestinian terrorism relabeled as “Palestinian rights”. They already engage in public relations propaganda campaigns hostile to Israel. They already support and initiate legal actions against Israel in international courts such as the ICC. These countries have escalated their rhetoric propaganda against Israel. Hamas could never have dug its complex tunnel system without international support. They already promote cultural and academic boycotts of Israel.
These countries throw their support for the Palestinian cause, like whores on street corners sell their wares. They often use ‘stinky’, blood libel slander rhetoric, to condemn Israeli actions, framing them as oppressive or colonial. Such putrid rhetoric seeks to poison public opinion and mobilize support for Palestinian groups. Numerous solidarity movements around the world that advocate for Palestinian rights; they often align with groups like Hamas, viewing them as legitimate representatives of Palestinian resistance.
Countries without diplomatic relations with Israel compare to corrupt judges that accepts bribes. This objection, seeks to raise critically important questions about the legitimacy and fairness of the recent Chapter VII UN ultimatum which demanded that Israel surrender to Hamas in Gaza. While the analogy of a corrupt judge highlights concerns about bias and fairness, the international system, in point of fact, operates on principles of representation and sovereignty.
The International system operates, so it appears, as something akin to a beauty contest. What defines beauty — not a rational logical concept. Israel demands a change to the International system. It could express its rebuke of the UN, by leaving the UN. The analogy of a corrupt judge suggests that countries without diplomatic relations with Israel, that they lack objective credibility to fairly judge the case heard before the court of international opinion.
This perception of bias, Israel argues, undermines the legitimacy of all UN resolutions or demands made against Israel. Particularly since nations who do not have diplomatic relations with Israel obvious their anti-Israel hostility – politically motivated – rather than based on objective criteria. Chapter VII of the UN Charter allows the Security Council to take action to maintain or restore international peace and security. However, the application of this chapter, like as in the Korean war, especially when it appears to favor one side over another in a conflict, historically expands the local conflict into a far larger international war. The call for Israel to surrender to Hamas, obviously viewed by both the US and Israel as an ultimatum that lacks balance and fairness. Just as China despised the UN Chapter VII ultimatum decreed against North Korea.
The international UN system, indeed based on principles of state sovereignty and representation. However, the effectiveness and fairness of this system both the US and Israel have repeatedly warned and challenged. Especially when certain countries dominate decision-making processes or when resolutions reflect geopolitical interests rather than universal principles of justice.
The idea that Israel should demand changes to the international UN system, this demand reflects the Israeli requirements for a more equitable and fair approach to international relations expressed through public UN diplomacy organs. Leaving the UN perhaps a radical step. But it raises questions about the effectiveness of the international UN system of public diplomacy among nation states in the world community of nations.
Thank YOU Mr. President. Iran looks more and more like Gaza, Lebanon, and Syria, and the Houthis. Burn baby burn.

Concluding Prayer for Hallel in the Home Service for the Festival of Passover, by Rabbi J. Leonard Levy (1896) —————————–
Tefillah does NOT translate to prayer. Tefillah requires שם ומלכות, prayer – as found in saying Tehillem – does not fundamentally require שם ומלכות. What does this mean? מאי נפקא מינא in Aramaic Talmud. Answer: שם ומלכות meaning the dedication of a tohor middah revealed to Moshe at Horev לשמה by means of swearing a Torah oath through which the Avot cut a brit which continually creates from nothing the Chosen Cohen people children of the Avot. Hence: tefillah, as a tohor time-oriented commandment calls upon the God of the Avot in the first blessing. Its interesting the Order of the 13 middot to Moshe at Horev. The Torah does a פרט\כלל – רחום וחנון whereas the later NaCH prophets often order the middot by means of a כלל/פרט – חנון ורחום. Herein explains the order of rabbi Yishmael’s middot.
Praying Tehillem by stark contrast expressed as a positive commandment which does not require k’vanna. Only tohor time-oriented commandments which dedicate specified tohor middot through swearing a Torah oath, (Tefillah called Amidah b/c a person ideally stands before a Sefer Torah in the beit knesset.), qualify as comparable to the oaths wherein the Avot swore the brit oath by means of a dedicated korban, which continually creates from nothing the chosen Cohen people. Hence the first blessing of the קריא שמע שחרית twice states תמיד מעשה בראשית.
Because the Book of בראשית introduces the Av mitzva of tohor time-oriented commandments which require prophetic mussar as its k’vanna. Prophetic mussar defines specified tohor middot first revealed to Moshe as the revelation of the Oral Torah at Sinai. Hence when the portion of Israel did their service in the Beit HaMikdash within the Beit Knesset they read the Creation story of the opening Book of בראשית which introduces the Av Torah commandments of tohor time-oriented commandments.
Consequently if a bnai brit does even minor Torah commandments such as shooing the mother bird off her brood of eggs or even rabbinic commandments like Shemone Esrei or lighting the Hanukkah lights or reading the Book of M’gillat Esther, the B’HaG introduced the chiddush that elevating mitzvot to Av tohor time-oriented commandments raises these rabbinic mitzvot to mitzvot from the Torah!

Concluding Prayer for Hallel in the Home Service for the Festival of Passover, by Rabbi J. Leonard Levy (1896)
This is a concluding prayer in the Hallel service at the Passover seder by Rabbi J. Leonard Levy to his Haggadah or Home Service for the Festival of Passover (1896) pp. 32-34. The prayer does not appear in subsequent editions. The prayer threads the needle between the particularly Jewish communal focus of Passover and the…
Moshe Kerr: What separates תפילה from תחנון? A blessing requires שם ומלכות. Shemone Esrei does not contain שם ומלכות. Yet it functions as the definition of a blessing. As does kadesh, which also lacks שם ומלכות. For that matter so does ברכת כהנים וגם כן קריא שמע. The k’vanna of חנון has nothing to do with the formal prayer written in the Siddur. Why? Because all these “mitzvot” qualify as tohor time oriented commandments which require k’vanna. What’s the k’vanna of תחנון through which it defines תפילה?
Word translations amount to tits on a boar hog when the new born piglets are ravenous and the sow died after giving birth! The 5th middah of the revelation of the Oral Torah at Horev – חנון, serves as the functioning root שרש of the term תחנון תפילה. The tohor time-oriented commandment of תפילה learns from the additional metaphor of תחנון. Consider the Order of the Shemone Esrei blessings … 3 + 13 + 3 blessings. 6 Yom Tov and 13 tohor middot revealed to Moshe, 40 days after the ערב רב Israelites – Jews assimilated and intermarried with Egyptians, no different from the kapo Jewish women who slept with Nazis. This ערב רב, according to the Torah – as expressed in the memory to war against Amalek/antisemitism – they lacked fear of אלהים. This same ערב רב referred to their Golden Calf substitute theology by the name אלהים. This tie-in explains the k’vanna of the term “fear of heaven”.
The ערב רב Jews lacked “fear of Heaven”, and therefore their avoda zarah profaned the 2nd Sinai commandment. Hence when Jews assimilate and intermarry with Goyim who do not accept the revelation of the Torah at Sinai (neither the Xtian Bible nor Muslim Koran ever once brings the שם השם first revealed in the 1st Sinai commandment – the greatest commandment of the entire Torah revelation at Sinai and Horev! Do Jews serve to obey the Torah revelation לשמה או לא לשמה? Observance of all the Torah commandments and Talmudic halachot hangs on this simple question.
Therefore תפילת תחנון interprets the k’vanna of תפילה, through the concept that a person stands before a Sefer Torah and dedicated specific and defined tohor middot which breath life into the hearts of the Yatrir HaTov of the chosen Cohen oath brit people. The verb תפילה most essentially entails the k’vanna of swearing a Torah oath. What Torah oath? The dedication, think korban, of some specified tohor middot…. Hence the concept of תפילת תחנון.
Classic Kabbalah spins around interpreting the k’vanna of the Siddur. The Yerushalmi Talmud teaches the mussar that 247 prophets occupied their energy in composing the Shemone Esrei. In the Bavli Talmud Shmuel Ha’Katan added the 19th blessing which cursed the ערב רב Jewish Xtians. The Shemone Esrei in the Yerushalmi obvious came before Shmuel Ha’Katan added this additional blessing. The Shemone Esrei in the Yerushalmi had 427 words. The Order and organization of both the Yerushalmi and Bavli Talmud spins around the Central Axis of the Order of the Shemone Esrei as its central – k’vanna.
The kabbalah of rabbi Akiva’s 4 part logic system hence rejects the 3 part Greek syllogism model of deductive reasoning logic. Inductive reasoning dynamic whereas deductive reasoning static. Newton’s calculus does not compare to early Middle Ages Arabic Algebra.
Hence if a person studies the Talmud this learning serves as the basis to dav-ven the Siddur with k’vanna. The Siddur serves as the basis by which the generations interpret the intent of both the Gemara and the Mishna. The genius of Jewish common law lost on the generations who think that by simply translating common law legal texts and the Siddur into the vernacular of foreign languages that they can grasp the k’vanna of Av tohor time-oriented commandments.
Liberal Kapo Jews. This stinking ערב רב assimilated and intermarried Jews who promote the hatred of Amalek – antisemitism. They simply have no fear of Heaven. The Torah described the original ערב רב that came out of Egypt as אין להם יראת אלהים. Sinat chinam equals spiritual Amalek.

Trump’s Iran Charade
In the aftermath of the US attack on Iran’s nuclear plants, a debate rages about the extent of the post Trump’s Iran Charade appeared first on Tikun Olam תיקון עולם إصلاح العالم
The Oct7th War which spread to a war against Lebanon, Syria, and Iran has radically changed the balance of power in the Middle East. The UN has completely discredited its objectivity with the ICC/ICJ attempts to declare Bibi a war-criminal. You drink this blood libel slander like Catholics drink their blood and body of Christ then go out and make a Easter pogrom against Jews based upon some blood libel slander!
Both England and France have broken off diplomatic relations with Israel, prior to the 12 Day War with Iran! Hence neither power has any influence in the Middle East negotiated peace process ie. the Coming Abraham expanded accords which will most likely see a majority of Arab countries developing diplomatic relations with Israel. If a majority of Arab nations recognize the Jewish state, then and only then will Israel join the Middle East voting block of Nations within the UN. A totally unprecedented reality since Israel won its two Wars of national independence back in 1948 and again in 1967.
The latter Independence War, recall that Naser swore to throw the Jews into the Sea and correct the Nakba disgrace where 5 Arab Armies failed to throw the Jews into the Sea and complete the Nazi Shoah of the Jewish people! To date, except for Camp David and Abraham Accord Arab nations which currently have diplomatic relations with Israel, post the Israeli victory of 1967, all Arab countries reacted through the Khartoum Conference declaration of 3 No’s. No Peace with Israel. No Recognition of Israel. No Negotiations with Israel.
Arab countries which reject the Jewish state of Israel refer it as “the Zionist Entity”. General Assembly UN Resolution 3379 declared Zionism is Racism! Apparently your revisionist History over-looked these minor FACTS. All Arab countries absolutely reject the 1917 Balfour Declaration wherein Britain recognized Jewish equal rights to achieve self determination in the Middle East. The League of Nations “Palestine Mandate” awarded to victorious WWI Britain in 1922, based this Mandate upon the Balfour Declaration. Hence b/c Arabs rejected Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination in the Middle East no Arab would ever refer to himself as a Palestinian.
Not till 1964, with the State of Israel as a 16 year old country did Egyptian born Yasser Arafat embrace the political opportunism and call his terrorist movement the Palestine Liberation Organization – PLO. That PLO Charter did not condemn Jordanian “occupation” of the Jordan declared “West Bank”. Nor did it condemn the Egyptian “occupation” of Gaza! Only ’48 Israel did the PLO Charter condemn and abhor!!!!

A 6 part Mishnaic mussar of this paper. Avodah Zarah in Our Generation: The Crisis of Jews Who Side With Amalek. In every generation, Amalek takes new forms. Today, it is no different. But what is shocking is not only the hatred of our enemies—it is the collaboration of Jews, raised within Torah civilization or its memory, who now partner with those seeking to dismantle the Jewish state.
When Jewish voices shout “From the River to the Sea,” they are not engaged in protest—they are echoing the genocidal goals of Hamas. When they equate Israel’s defense against a massacre to genocide, they join in blood libel, no different in kind from the medieval slanders that triggered Easter pogroms. When they ally with UN declarations and ICC/ICJ indictments meant to strip Jews of the right to self-defense, they violate the first commandment of Jewish history: “Never again shall Jewish blood be cheap.”
1. Sovereignty vs. Subjugation: Jews Ruling vs. Jews Ruled: A fundamental distinction separates Jews living as a sovereign nation in their own land versus Jews existing as a minority under non-Jewish rule (galut). Assimilated & intermarried Jews in the West, who function within dominant non-Jewish cultures, have lost connection with Jewish national identity and Torah sovereignty, resembling the biblical Erev Rav—those lacking fear of Heaven and loyalty to the Jewish nation.
2. Double Standards in Territorial Legitimacy: Prussia vs. Samaria & Gaza: The hypocrisy of the international community – emphasized. While the post-WWII redrawing of European borders—such as Poland and Russia’s annexation of Prussia—is accepted without condemnation, Israel is uniquely targeted for reasserting sovereignty over Samaria and Gaza after 1967. UN Resolutions 242 and 338 are cited as politically biased tools used to delegitimize Israel’s historical and military rights.
3. Western Imperialism and Regional Domination: Suez to Iran. The 1956 Suez Crisis serves as evidence of continued British and French imperial ambitions, cloaked in Cold War geopolitics and economic control (specifically over the Suez Canal). This is paralleled with U.S./British involvement in Iran—removing Mossadegh and reinstalling the Shah to prevent the nationalization of oil. The 1979 Iranian Revolution is framed as a reaction to this imperialism. Similarly, prior to the “12 Day War,” the UK and France withdrew diplomatic ties with Israel in protest of their exclusion from influencing a ceasefire in Gaza.
4. Rejection of the 242/338 Two-State Paradigm by the Abraham Accords. The Abraham Accords are seen as a major geopolitical shift, fundamentally rejecting the British- and French-backed vision of peace based on dividing Israel into two hostile entities—akin to India-Pakistan or North-South Korea. The Accords envision peace without territorial partition, and with increasing normalization between Israel and Arab states, signal the failure of the old colonial-era frameworks.
5. UN Bias and Historical Arab Rejectionism of the Balfour Declaration wherein a major Great Power recognized Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination in the Middle East. The UN based its 1922 Palestinian Mandate upon the Balfour Treaty. The Khartoum Conference (1967) “Three No’s” serves as proof of Arab states’ refusal to accept Israel’s equal rights to self-determination. The UN, particularly via General Assembly Resolution 3379 (“Zionism is racism”), has been complicit in reinforcing this Arab rejectionism of Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination. Meanwhile, the ICC and ICJ today continue the Zionism is Racism pattern, under the guise of international law, falsely accusing Israeli leaders of war crimes while ignoring the Oct7th pogrom and declaring the current conflict pre-dates Oct7th. This whitewashes the Oct7th surprise attack, comparable to the Pearl Harbor attack on Dec7th 1941.
6. The Manufactured Identity of “Palestinians” and PLO Opportunism. The identity of “Palestinians”, a modern invention, emerging only in 1964 with the formation of the PLO under Egyptian-born Yasser Arafat. The original PLO Charter made no objection to Jordanian control of the West Bank or Egyptian rule in Gaza, focusing only on dismantling Israel. This opportunistic narrative is framed as a political weapon rather than a legitimate national movement.

The Talmud (Yoma 9b) states:
מקדש שני שהיו עוסקים בתורה ובמצות וגמילות חסדים, מפני מה חרב? מפני שהיתה בו שנאת חנם. Then, the Midrash in Eikha Rabbah and various aggadot go further to compare sinat chinam with the worst transgressions—including idolatry, sexual immorality, and murder—suggesting that internal Jewish hatred is as destructive as idol worship.
G’lut Jews have lost the wisdom to keep and obey the Torah לשמה. Assimilated and intermarried Jews living under foreign alien cultures and customs have abandoned the T’NaCH, Talmud, Midrashim, and Siddur as the foundation which shapes and forms all Torah cultures and customs. As an ערב רב they cling to alien cultures and customs by which they form and shape their identities and values. These foreign cultures and customs which they embrace have become the Gods which they worship.
מידה כנגד מידה a core Torah principle, and that slogans like “From the river to the sea”—when chanted by Jews—do immense damage. Jews who equate the Gaza war with the Shoah genocide equals to the abhorrence to blood libel slanders which produced annual pogroms prior to Easter across Europe. Liberal Jews disgraceful alliance with South African declarations of genocide in Gaza and Apartheid a flat out public chilul Hashem. Such Jews have no portion in the world to Come. These Jews have broken faith with the brit Cohen people, just like as did the Erev Rav which aroused Amalek antisemites throughout the generations. The blood of hundreds of generations of Jews slaughtered cries out and denounces these stinking ערב רב Jews.
When Jews chant “From the River to the Sea,” they are not merely protesting policy—they are aligning themselves with those who dream of Israel’s destruction. This is not political dissent. It is covenantal treason. Like the Erev Rav, they emerge at times of national crisis to confuse the people, distort Torah, and drain morale. Their slogans, shouted from exile and college campuses, do more than harm Israel’s name abroad—they erode our internal unity and desecrate the mission entrusted to Israel at Sinai. These Jews have not merely lost political direction—they have forfeited spiritual clarity. They replace Torah with the gods of globalism, intersectionality, and postmodern guilt. The Torah calls this avodah zarah—not in metaphor, but in law.
The Torah commands the total destruction of Amalek—without mercy, without compromise. This commandment appears in multiple places. Devarim 25:17–19: “You shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven. Do not forget.”
Shemot 17:16: “Hashem will have war with Amalek from generation to generation.”
Shmuel I 15: Shmuel commands Shaul to annihilate Amalek totally, down to every man, woman, child, and animal. When Shaul shows mercy, he is rejected as king.
This as a Torah commandment targets Amalek’s existential war against Hashem and against the Jewish people. Amalek is not simply an enemy—it is a theological and civilizational antithesis to Torah, a force of evil that seeks to destroy the very brit between Hashem and Israel.
The statute law perversion of Hilchot Melachim 5:5 flat out wrong. The 7 laws of bnai noach apply strictly and only to gere toshav temporary residents living within the borders of Judea. Once those Goyim returned to their homelands the 7 laws no longer applied to them. The purpose of keeping those 7 laws: Unlike the refugee Na’Cree stranger who had no judicial rights to fair compensation of damages inflicted. Gere Toshav enjoyed the legal right to sue an Israel for damages and receive fair compensation. Not so the Canaani refugees. An Israel had no legal obligation to compensate them for damages they suffered from an Israel. The purpose of judicial justice – to restore Trust between bnai brit who inflict damages upon one another. The NaCree Canaani refugees never ever trusted during their entire temporary residence within the borders of Judea.
Today we can easily identify Amalek with absolute certainty because assimilation and intermarriage defines avoda zarah and Amalek promotes the worship of avoda zarah. The RambaN’s (Devarim 25) commentary applies today because the Torah defines faith as the pursuit of righteous judicial justice within the borders of the Constitutional 12 Tribe Republic. Sanhedrin 98a: “Moshiach ben David will not come until all judges are restored as of old.” Amalek is not a foreign invader, but a spiritual-political corruption that arises from within, where Torah is abandoned, brit is dissolved, and Jewish trust is betrayed. The king David model dedicates the mitzva of Moshiach upon justice based upon the פרט of the lack of justice served to the baal of Bat Sheva.
The ערב רב who left Egypt – Jews. Amalek attacked these Jews wherein they embraced the ways of Amalek ie assimilation and intermarriage. Amalek by definition: a nation that attacked Israel at its weakest from behind. From behind refers to Jews who have no fear of God.
Sinat chinam and betrayal while similar to precedent cases of mumar, tinok she’nishba, moser, and min, clearly the added blessing within the Shemone Esrei by Shmuel Ha’Katan condemns this ערב רב Amalek internal Jewish abomination no different than the Ben Sorer u’Moreh.
The term “Amalek”, applied to Jews perceived as betraying their people, rather than to alien Goyim people/strangers. This internal betrayal – viewed as particularly egregious because it comes from within the community, undermining the collective identity and mission of the Jewish people. The comparison to figures like Benedict Arnold highlights the seriousness of perceived betrayal during critical moments in Jewish history, such as the fight for independence and survival against external threats. Liberal Reform Jewish movements or individuals, who align themselves with foreign enemies who oppose Israel or Jewish sovereignty, their tuma actions constitute as most base betrayal, meaning Amalek.
Liberal Reform Judaism theology and Jewish political groups or individuals who embrace this Av tuma avoda zarah; who align themselves with anti-Israel sentiments or actions contribute to a form of betrayal which defines the Torah commandment to obliterate Amalek. The seriousness of internal divisions within the Jewish community and the implications of those divisions for Jewish identity and solidarity herein defines the k’vanna of remembering the Torah obligation to utterly obliterate Amalek without showing the slightest regard for mercy.
Hence its the precise mitzvot of killing the rebellious son or the mitzva of utterly obliterating the memory of Amalek betrayal among our people, these key Torah precedents serve to define the k’vanna of רחום revealed to Moshe at Horev 40 days after the sin of the Golden Calf.
Another precedent, the destruction of Korach and his children. The Torah commands: The sons does not die for the sins of his father. Yet the sons of Korach all died together with their father! The middah of רחום vetoes the negative Torah commandment. The revelation of Oral Torah tohor middot at Horev prioritizes the k’vanna of tohor middot dedicated to HaShem לשמה. Either when dedicating a korban on the altar or doing halachic mitzvot from the Talmud.
Regardless – doing time oriented tohor Av commandments raises toldot commandments and halachic mitzvot to primary Torah commandments which require prophetic mussar middot dedications לשמה as their k’vanna. Therefore the dedication of tohor middot have a veto power over doing secondary commandments which do not require k’vanna; such as the negative commandment not to put the son to death for the sins of the father. Yet in the case of Korach, the sons – put to death together with their father. Herein defines the k’vanna of רחום.

Liberal Kapo Jews. This stinking ערב רב assimilated and intermarried Jews who promote the hatred of Amalek – antisemitism. They simply have no fear of Heaven. The Torah described the original ערב רב that came out of Egypt as אין להם יראת אלהים. Sinat chinam equals spiritual Amalek.

The Oct7th War which spread to a war against Lebanon, Syria, and Iran has radically changed the balance of power in the Middle East. The UN has completely discredited its objectivity with the ICC/ICJ attempts to declare Bibi a war-criminal. You drink this blood libel slander like Catholics drink their blood and body of Christ then go out and make a Easter pogrom against Jews based upon some blood libel slander!
Both England and France have broken off diplomatic relations with Israel, prior to the 12 Day War with Iran! Hence neither power has any influence in the Middle East negotiated peace process ie. the Coming Abraham expanded accords which will most likely see a majority of Arab countries developing diplomatic relations with Israel. If a majority of Arab nations recognize the Jewish state, then and only then will Israel join the Middle East voting block of Nations within the UN. A totally unprecedented reality since Israel won its two Wars of national independence back in 1948 and again in 1967.
The latter Independence War, recall that Naser swore to throw the Jews into the Sea and correct the Nakba disgrace where 5 Arab Armies failed to throw the Jews into the Sea and complete the Nazi Shoah of the Jewish people! To date, except for Camp David and Abraham Accord Arab nations which currently have diplomatic relations with Israel, post the Israeli victory of 1967, all Arab countries reacted through the Khartoum Conference declaration of 3 No’s. No Peace with Israel. No Recognition of Israel. No Negotiations with Israel.
Arab countries which reject the Jewish state of Israel refer it as “the Zionist Entity”. General Assembly UN Resolution 3379 declared Zionism is Racism! Apparently your revisionist History over-looked these minor FACTS. All Arab countries absolutely reject the 1917 Balfour Declaration wherein Britain recognized Jewish equal rights to achieve self determination in the Middle East. The League of Nations “Palestine Mandate” awarded to victorious WWI Britain in 1922, based this Mandate upon the Balfour Declaration. Hence b/c Arabs rejected Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination in the Middle East no Arab would ever refer to himself as a Palestinian.
Not till 1964, with the State of Israel as a 16 year old country did Egyptian born Yasser Arafat embrace the political opportunism and call his terrorist movement the Palestine Liberation Organization – PLO. That PLO Charter did not condemn Jordanian “occupation” of the Jordan declared “West Bank”. Nor did it condemn the Egyptian “occupation” of Gaza! Only ’48 Israel did the PLO Charter condemn and abhor!!!!
A 6 part Mishnaic mussar of this paper. Avodah Zarah in Our Generation: The Crisis of Jews Who Side With Amalek. In every generation, Amalek takes new forms. Today, it is no different. But what is shocking is not only the hatred of our enemies—it is the collaboration of Jews, raised within Torah civilization or its memory, who now partner with those seeking to dismantle the Jewish state.
When Jewish voices shout “From the River to the Sea,” they are not engaged in protest—they are echoing the genocidal goals of Hamas. When they equate Israel’s defense against a massacre to genocide, they join in blood libel, no different in kind from the medieval slanders that triggered Easter pogroms. When they ally with UN declarations and ICC/ICJ indictments meant to strip Jews of the right to self-defense, they violate the first commandment of Jewish history: “Never again shall Jewish blood be cheap.”
Sovereignty vs. Subjugation: Jews Ruling vs. Jews Ruled: A fundamental distinction separates Jews living as a sovereign nation in their own land versus Jews existing as a minority under non-Jewish rule (galut). Assimilated & intermarried Jews in the West, who function within dominant non-Jewish cultures, have lost connection with Jewish national identity and Torah sovereignty, resembling the biblical Erev Rav—those lacking fear of Heaven and loyalty to the Jewish nation.
Double Standards in Territorial Legitimacy: Prussia vs. Samaria & Gaza: The hypocrisy of the international community – emphasized. While the post-WWII redrawing of European borders—such as Poland and Russia’s annexation of Prussia—is accepted without condemnation, Israel is uniquely targeted for reasserting sovereignty over Samaria and Gaza after 1967. UN Resolutions 242 and 338 are cited as politically biased tools used to delegitimize Israel’s historical and military rights.
Western Imperialism and Regional Domination: Suez to Iran. The 1956 Suez Crisis serves as evidence of continued British and French imperial ambitions, cloaked in Cold War geopolitics and economic control (specifically over the Suez Canal). This is paralleled with U.S./British involvement in Iran—removing Mossadegh and reinstalling the Shah to prevent the nationalization of oil. The 1979 Iranian Revolution is framed as a reaction to this imperialism. Similarly, prior to the “12 Day War,” the UK and France withdrew diplomatic ties with Israel in protest of their exclusion from influencing a ceasefire in Gaza.
Rejection of the 242/338 Two-State Paradigm by the Abraham Accords. The Abraham Accords are seen as a major geopolitical shift, fundamentally rejecting the British- and French-backed vision of peace based on dividing Israel into two hostile entities—akin to India-Pakistan or North-South Korea. The Accords envision peace without territorial partition, and with increasing normalization between Israel and Arab states, signal the failure of the old colonial-era frameworks.
UN Bias and Historical Arab Rejectionism of the Balfour Declaration wherein a major Great Power recognized Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination in the Middle East. The UN based its 1922 Palestinian Mandate upon the Balfour Treaty. The Khartoum Conference (1967) “Three No’s” serves as proof of Arab states’ refusal to accept Israel’s equal rights to self-determination. The UN, particularly via General Assembly Resolution 3379 (“Zionism is racism”), has been complicit in reinforcing this Arab rejectionism of Jewish equal rights to achieve self-determination. Meanwhile, the ICC and ICJ today continue the Zionism is Racism pattern, under the guise of international law, falsely accusing Israeli leaders of war crimes while ignoring the Oct7th pogrom and declaring the current conflict pre-dates Oct7th. This whitewashes the Oct7th surprise attack, comparable to the Pearl Harbor attack on Dec7th 1941.
The Manufactured Identity of “Palestinians” and PLO Opportunism. The identity of “Palestinians”, a modern invention, emerging only in 1964 with the formation of the PLO under Egyptian-born Yasser Arafat. The original PLO Charter made no objection to Jordanian control of the West Bank or Egyptian rule in Gaza, focusing only on dismantling Israel. This opportunistic narrative is framed as a political weapon rather than a legitimate national movement.
The Talmud (Yoma 9b) states:
מקדש שני שהיו עוסקים בתורה ובמצות וגמילות חסדים, מפני מה חרב? מפני שהיתה בו שנאת חנם. Then, the Midrash in Eikha Rabbah and various aggadot go further to compare sinat chinam with the worst transgressions—including idolatry, sexual immorality, and murder—suggesting that internal Jewish hatred is as destructive as idol worship.
G’lut Jews have lost the wisdom to keep and obey the Torah לשמה. Assimilated and intermarried Jews living under foreign alien cultures and customs have abandoned the T’NaCH, Talmud, Midrashim, and Siddur as the foundation which shapes and forms all Torah cultures and customs. As an ערב רב they cling to alien cultures and customs by which they form and shape their identities and values. These foreign cultures and customs which they embrace have become the Gods which they worship.

While studying Soviet foreign policy under Prof. Dunning at Texas A&M, I developed a theory of Trotsky’s “Permanent Revolution” as a mechanism for dismantling the ethical containment force of a civilization. This theory helped explain why Stalin, in 1939, invited Hitler to attack the USSR, enabling the Nazi military to mass troops along Soviet borders without triggering a Soviet mobilization. Stalin, fearing the precedent of WWI—where a prolonged war catalyzed the collapse of the Czarist regime—believed such a shock invasion could be politically survivable if it avoided prolonged internal dissent.
The Bolsheviks based their theory of revolution upon the French revolution where the King and the Church destroyed. The Bolsheviks destroyed both the Czar and the Greek Orthodox Church. The collapse of the Shah of Iran witnessed the overthrow of both the Shah and Western culture. Hitler did the same in Germany, he destroyed the post WWI Parliament and the Church.
Vladimir Lenin’s approach to revolution built around a tight knit and concealed cabal of revolutionaries. This idea separated from the Menshevik theories which embraced anarchist theories of revolution. Lenin rejected the anarchist and decentralist leanings of the Mensheviks, establishing a covert revolutionary elite to seize power. Trotsky, by contrast, remained more loyal to the original soviet model: workers’ councils governing through direct delegation. Lenin Marxist ideology emphasized the role of the proletariat in overthrowing capitalism and establishing a dictatorship of the proletariat. Whereas Troskii, being at heart a Menshevik supported “All Power to the Soviets” way to achieve political power and rule of government – at least till he sat as the Head of State. Lenin and Troskii used specific strategies, such as forming alliances with other revolutionary groups and leveraging the discontent of soldiers and workers, to successfully overthrow the Provisional Government. Stalin would employ intra-Bolshevik alliances to expel Troskii as the heir of Lenin.
The simplistic narrative of the Gospels – a story of Santa Claus coming to town lies told to children. Religious belief systems, no different than Stalin’s and Hitler’s propaganda lies told to their Party “believers”. The church persecution of “Xtian heretics” — no different than Stalin’s show trials of Bolshevik leaders whose opinions threatened the stability of Stalin’s One Man dictatorship.
Or Hitler’s, the “Night of the Long Knives,” purge which executed several leaders of the Sturmabteilung (SA), also known as the Brown Shirts, as well as other political adversaries. The SA, led by Ernst Röhm, instrumental in Hitler’s rise to power, but by 1934, their increasing power and Röhm’s ambitions posed a threat to Hitler and the more conservative elements of the Nazi Party, including the military (Reichswehr) and the SS (Schutzstaffel).
Hitler used a purge to consolidate his power, eliminate rivals, and gain the support of the military, which viewed the SA as a potential threat. The event resulted in the deaths of many SA leaders and other political opponents, solidifying Hitler’s control over the Nazi Party and the German state. The Night of the Long Knives, often seen as a turning point in the establishment of Hitler’s dictatorship.
During the Middle Ages the Pope instituted similar purges of all heretic gnostic and Protestant believers which challenged the dominance of the church monopoly over how to understand and interpret the NT\gospels. For example all church leaders have denounced to this very day the revelation of the Oral Torah as explained through the kabbalah of rabbi Akiva’s four part פרדס logic format.
Peter Lombard (c. 1100-1160), a significant figure in medieval theology, best known for his work “Sentences” (Sententiae), which became a cornerstone of Scholastic thought. His “Sentences” – a compilation of theological opinions and teachings from earlier Church Fathers and theologians, structured in a way that facilitated debate and discussion among scholars. The “Sentences” addressed various topics, including the nature of God, the sacraments, and the virtues. It provided a systematic approach to theology that encouraged critical thinking and analysis.
Gratian, who lived around 1140, a prominent medieval scholar and jurist, best known for his work in canon law. He often referred to by many catholics as the “Father of Canon Law”, due to his significant contributions to the development of ecclesiastical legal systems in the Catholic church. His most notable work – the “Decretum Gratiani.” A comprehensive compilation of canon law that organized and harmonized the various legal texts and decrees which accumulated over the years. This work, pivotal in establishing a systematic approach to canon law and served as a foundational text for later legal scholars and the development of church law.
Gratian’s “Decretum” addressed various topics, including the authority of the church, the nature of sin, and the administration of sacraments. Gratian’s ‘Decretum’ shaped the Church’s legal framework and remained a foundational text in canon law and theology for centuries. His work laid the groundwork for subsequent developments in both canon law and civil law.
Saint Albert the Great, another significant figure in the development of medieval philosophy and science. Albertus Magnus, a mentor to Thomas Aquinas at the University of Paris. His influence on Aquinas helped shape the latter’s integration of Aristotelian philosophy with Xtian theology. He played a crucial role in reintroducing Aristotelian philosophy to the Xtian intellectual tradition.
Albertus sought to reconcile Aristotle’s ideas with Xtian doctrine, emphasizing the compatibility of faith and reason. Often regarded as one of the first to systematically study the natural world. His integration of Aristotelian philosophy with Xtian theology influenced not only his students, like Aquinas, but also the broader development of Western philosophy and science. His work in biology, mineralogy, and metaphysics, all of which were deeply empirical for the time viewed as a bridge between the ancient philosophy and the rediscovered ancient Greek logic philosophies in the 10th Century.
Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274): Perhaps the most famous Scholastic philosopher and theologian, Aquinas – best known for his works “Summa Theologica” and “Summa Contra Gentiles.” He sought to reconcile faith and reason, drawing heavily on Aristotelian philosophy.
This is Aquinas’s most famous work, structured as a comprehensive guide to theology. It addresses various theological questions, including the existence of God, the nature of man, and moral principles. The work is notable for its systematic approach and use of Aristotelian logic.
Summa Contra Gentiles, Aquinas defends the Xtian faith against non-Xtian philosophies, particularly those of Islam and Judaism. It emphasizes the rational basis of faith and aims to demonstrate the compatibility of reason and revelation. Its failure to address the 4 part inductive reasoning logic of Oral Torah ultimately proves the propaganda half truths of church theology.
Aquinas, by stark contrast drew heavily on the works of Aristotle rather than rabbi Akiva. The latter views the Talmud compared to the warp/weft threads of a loom. Where דרוש ופשט interpret T’NaCH prophetic mussar and interpret the kvanna of Aggadic stories. While רמז וסוד conceal as the foundation of time oriented commandments express through both Torah commandments and Talmudic halachot. Aquinas consciously chose and integrated Aristotelian philosophy within the fabric of Xtian doctrine. He introduced concepts such as the “Five Ways” to demonstrate the existence of God, arguments based on observation and reason based upon Greek philosophy. And the Xtian Muslim dogma of Universal monotheism.
Aristotle’s static logic, ideal for constructing bridges. Hence Aquinas prioritized ancient Greek logic as ideal to support catholic dogmatism and Papal Bulls. Fluid\dynamic inductive reasoning/law where opposing prosecutor and defense lawyers rely exclusively upon previous judicial precedents to support pro & con opinions, hardly served the interests of a Vatican bible dictatorship. All three—Church, Stalin, Hitler—feared epistemological rivals: alternative systems of truth and authority. Like Stalinist “confessions” under torture, medieval inquisitions produced fabricated heresies to maintain a monopoly over “truth.”
Aquinas, known for his development of the concept of ancient Greek ‘natural law’. Which posits that moral principles best understood through human reason and inherent in the nature of human beings. His method involved posing Socratic-Plato questions, presenting objections, and then providing answers, which became a hallmark of Scholastic methodology.
Suppression of heretical beliefs and movements that challenged Vatican authority and interpretation of Xtian substitute theology doctrine included church denial of the Oral Torah revelation at Horev. Rabbi Akiva’s 4 part inductive logic system “replaced” by Aristotle’s 3 part syllogism of deductive logic. The latter shaped the church narrative. Logos (Greek abstraction) vs. Dibur or Torah SheB’al Peh (Oath alliance active remembrance of the oaths sworn by Avraham Yitzak and Yaacov.), which the church fathers violently denounce. In 1242 the Pope ordered the public burning of all Talmudic manuscripts within the whole of France.
The church defined heresy as beliefs or practices that deviated from established doctrine dogma and Vatican Bulls. Groups such as the Cathars and Waldensians, and of course Jews, labeled as cursed heretics for their stubborn stiff-necked alternative interpretations of Xtianity; Jews who viewed the NT as a Roman fraud, utterly despised by being impoverished through taxation without representation and thrown into ghetto gulags for multiple Centuries – פרדס inductive reasoning, compares to mentioning aloud the name of Lord Voldemort.
Established in the 12th century, the Inquisition formalized systematic oppression into a Nazi-like system – wherein the catholic thought police identified, prosecuted and slaughtered “heretics”. It involved pre-decided judicial investigations, trials, employed to conceal satanic human torture. The most infamous of these the notorious war-crimes: Spanish Inquisition. Begun in 1478, targeting Jews, Muslims, and Protestant reformers.
Suppression of heretical beliefs and movements that challenged Vatican authority and interpretation of Xtian doctrine, specifically included church denial of the Oral Torah revelation at Horev. Which also laid the foundation for Stalin’s later show trials in the 1930s.
Rabbi Akiva’s 4 part inductive logic system, Xtian replacement theology” prioritized and emphasized both Paul’s ‘original sin’ theology and later Aristotle’s 3 part syllogism of deductive logic, and denounced Jewish Oral Torah as non existent. This proverbial ostrich burying head in sand cowardice, such tuma pusillanimity shapes the church narratives to this very day.
The church classically defined heresy, prior to the French Revolution, as beliefs or practices that deviated and challenged the church dictate. Groups such as the Cathars and Waldensians, labeled as heretics for their alternative interpretations of both bible & Xtianity. Many groups other than these specific particulars utterly rejected the church Vatican monopoly – authority and power – to solely interpret the intent of both bible and church dogma. The Inquisition prosecution of heretics involved quasi-investigations, trials, and often torture punishments, resulting in execution.
The Gospel of John, written in Greek. The earliest known manuscripts of the Gospel of john include fragments such as the Rylands Library Papyrus P52, which dates to around 125 CE. This fragment, the oldest known manuscript of any part of the New Testament and contains a few verses from John 18. Other significant manuscripts, like Codex Sinaiticus and Codex Vaticanus, date from the 4th century CE and include the entire text of the Gospel.
The early Church Fathers, who were primarily Greek and Latin speakers, recognized the Greek text as the authoritative version. They often cited it in their writings, which supports the Rylands Library Papyrus P52, and contributes to the perception that the john gospel was originally composed in Greek. During this period of the Roman empire Greek served as the lingua franca – the medium of communication between peoples of different languages.
The Hellenistic themes of pre-existent divinity and hypostatic union present significant theological challenges when compared to the foundational principles of revelation as outlined in the Torah, particularly the events at Sinai. Pre-Existent Divinity, this concept suggests that certain divine beings or aspects of divinity existed before the creation of the world. In Hellenistic thought, this often refers to the idea of a divine Logos or intermediary that existed alongside God before the creation of the universe. In Xtian theology, this Greek concept, reflected in the belief in the pre-existence of Christ, seen as the divine Word (Logos) that was with God and was God (John 1:1).
While some early Church Fathers, like Papias, mentioned a possible ‘Hebrew Gospel’, they did not specifically attribute this to john. The notion of a Hebrew Gospel has been discussed in the context of the early Christian community’s use of different languages and texts. However, there no manuscript exists that definitively supports this revisionist history narrative. Most of the early references to such texts, compare to church blood libel slanders – indirect and often speculative. The lack of concrete manuscript evidence has led many scholars to view the idea of a Hebrew Gospel of John as most base revisionist history. The Greek Gospel of John, with no reliable Hebrew precedent, confirms the Roman-Hellenistic theological trajectory—not an indigenous Semitic prophecy.
The absence of a Hebrew manuscript or even substantial references to it in early Christian writings further proves this as just another blood libel lie. The theological themes in the Gospel of John, such as the Logos (Word) and the divinity of Christ, align more closely with Hellenistic thought than Hebrew thought which totally repudiate it. Attempts by Xtians in this Century to declare that Logos means “ben” or “JeZeus” amounts to creating their own ‘Oral Torah way’ to interpret the NT, while denying the existence of the revelation of the Oral Torah at Horev.
The church’s persecution of heresy did not merely target political dissent—it waged wars against competing systems of legal and judicial reasoning vs. legislative statute law dictates made by tyrants or non elected bureaucrats. The Jewish Oral Torah, whose revelatory authority at Horev, rooted in inductive logic and oaths precedent active remembrance of the Avot; this judicial common law fundamentally threatened the Vatican’s imposed monopoly over its Pravda – truth. Replacing Rabbi Akiva’s פרדס framework with Aristotle’s deductive syllogism, the Church attempted to implode T’NaCH and Talmudic common law judicial legalism. That actively shapes and influences the cultures and customs which defines Jewish identity as a people of the chosen Cohen nation.
The battle over heresy, never merely about doctrine—rather, a battle over interpretive sovereignty. The church’s erasure of the Oral Torah, its violent rejection of the פרדס legal judicial legislative review, and its dogmatic substitution of Greek metaphysics, all point to a broader imperial strategy: the silencing of Sinai. Just as Stalin erased rivals and Hitler purged the SA, the Vatican constructed a theological police state—burning the Talmud, ghettoizing Jews, and replacing the oath alliance conscious remembrance of the Avot through the tefillah from the Torah kre’a shma, the church intentionally sought to implode Horev replaced by the empire of Rome. That war on revelation still echoes in every attempt to retranslate the Gospel into Hebrew, to resurrect ‘Logos’ as ‘Ben,’ and to pass fiction as prophecy.”
The Torah commandment to uproot Canaanite cultures reflects not cruelty but covenantal mercy (מידת רחום)—a national immunization against cultural apostasy and idolatry. The second commandment warns against assimilating into societies that reject the Horev revelation, whether ancient Canaanites or modern ideological empires like Rome and Mecca. Failure to uproot the ancient Canaanites directly threatened the 2nd Sinai commandment not to follow the cultures and customs of peoples who reject the revelation of the Torah at Sinai and Horev. The peoples of both Xtianity and Islam reject the revelation of the Torah at Sinai and Horev. Hence the church sought to implode and cause the People of Israel to forget the Oral Torah just as did the assimilated Tzeddukim who sought to transform Jerusalem into a Greek polis.
