[music] >> While we can't prevent Jews from coming to Palestine, when you come we'll have priests waiting to baptize you. >> Rabbi Tovia Singer, thank you for joining us. Is there something in Tanakh you could point to to help Jewry in America [music] understand where we're up to in Yemot Hamashiach? >> So, we're told explicitly in the Torah in the two places you would predict what's called the tochacha. Leviticus 26, Deuteronomy 28, the Leviticus 26, Deuteronomy 28, the blessings and the curses. So, we're told explicitly when the Jewish people go into exile, the Torah says, "And I'll scatter you among the nations. I will draw out a sword against you." Leviticus 26:33. The same thing we have the same idea conveyed in Deuteronomy 28:64 and 65. That the nations where you will go you will have no rest. It's fairly transparent transparent to us that if the Jews had gone to the Korean Peninsula, uh particularly the southern part, or if we had gone to China or Japan or the Far East, we wouldn't be dealing with this. But throughout our exile, we have been um hated by the nations where we uh where we lived, which had multiple effects which Hazal anticipated and Tanakh talk about. Uh number one, it it means that the Jewish people would still be in the Jewish people would still be in galus and be very aware that we're in exile. It's very hostile. And number two is our sages tell us that it prevents Jews from assimilating because we're constantly reminded by our adversaries who we are, what we are, and that is that we're hated. Mom dame, is a Shia which is an iteration of Islam which holds the Jew in the most contempt. Meaning, it's a very strange
