Shalom, my friends, I am hailing from Tveriah in Galilee this evening. Tveriah has been, is and will always be my favorite destination in Israel.
I am very blessed to be able to spend two weeks and a half there until heading towards Jerusalem for a few days.
I do keep Shabbat and I always thought that Tveriah was one of the best destinations to welcome Shabbat. Last October, Shabbat has been great there.
However, a few weeks ago, Tveriah elected a new mayor, Ron Kobi.
I was first surprised to discover that this person decided to make buses circulate on Shabbat day in the holy city. But there is much more to it: this morning I went to a local synagogue and what I discovered from the synagogue's paper left me speechless: Tveriah's new mayor publicly declared that there were too many synagogues in Tveriah.
This man, whose grandfather was a Hassid, is openly taking a position against the Torah-keepers in the Galilean town. He made a public statement that he does not like the Haredim. Apparently, he also offended the Muslim community in Tveriah ( I don't know the exact reason).
It is very saddening when somebody uses the pretext of helping people ( like transport) to profane Shabbat. Another example of desecration of Shabbat is what I witnessed with my own eyes today while wanting to rest close to Kinneret: some loud manifestation with music and a Mickey Mouse-alike doll. I had to flee to the mountains, near rabbi Akiva's tomb, to find some silence. From there, I implored HaShem to preserve Tveriah and to stop the wicked.
I reiterated my demand to the Almighty trice.
Heavens opened and I saw a vision.
There were broken tables of the Law and an angel weeping.
I am requesting mercy for Tveriah. Whoever goes against Torah is an enemy of the Almighty.
We are in Messianic end times. Please join me in prayers. Evil shall not win. I stand with the Hassidim.
