AMAZING Or HaChayim
The Or HaChayim explains the Torah's use this week of the word for MERCY - Rachamim - twice in one verse when the topic is destruction - KILLING EVERYONE and even the material destruction of the place too we’re educated in the West to believe in democratic world that everything can and should be solvable rationally and with tolerance ad middle ground compromise even in Beit Din - in our exile - the standard procedure is Psharah or compromise - we try to unite conflicting sides by giving in toward the middle for the sake of peace ad progress
The Brisker Rav was quoted as saying he was a Chacham in his house - wise man - when his Talmidim asked him HOW? He answered he was wise in his house in that he lost 99% of the arguments!
When asked again - so how were u Chacham - wise?! He answered that he was WISE in knowing which 1% to stand absolutely firm on to make sure he got his way because the issue would make all the difference in the world for the spiritual success of his family - NO COMPROMISE IN THAT 1%
We see today in politics that living in Israel has made us wise enough to know the faults of democracy
If we adhere to western democratic diplomacy tactics - we would long ago have lost our precious Israel this is because westerners are so stupid they actually believe our enemies will agree to and sign treaties and deals and stick to them after all the democratic way is to compromise - make an agreement for peace based on compromise - and stick to it - have peace and commerce and move on the stupid western mentality wakes up too late even long after the twin towers to a reality of an enemy that has a mitzvah to sign an agreement with the pre-planned strategy of getting more and breaking the agreement - the only word that is a word is win by agreeing to trickery
SO THE OR HA CHAIM Says that the mitzvah to wipe out the entire city of idolaters is merciful in the sense that HaShem assures us the impact on the planet of such a city doing teaching and modelling such corrupt behaviour corrupt te very fabric of society - The Biala Rebbe often brings a Noam Elimelech that BRINGS VERSE IN TEHILLIM THAT SAYS - LOMDU MAASAYHEM - THEY LEARNED THEIR ACTIONS - INSTEAD OF SAYING THEY LEARNED from THEIR ACTIONS.
HE EXPLAINS THAT WHEN YOU LIVE WITH OR AROUND CORRUPT PEOPLE - THEIR ACTIONS AND WAY OF DOING THINGS CORRUPTLY PUTS THIS CORRUPTING ENERGY AND INFLUENCE OUT AROUND THEM AND NATURALLY CORRUPTS EVEN GOOD ENERGY PEOPLE - LIKE INTERNET - IN HEARTMATH HEART RATE VARIABILITY BIOFEEDBACK - THEY QUOTE STUDIES THAT THE HEART FIELD IS THE MOST POWERFUL ONE AND YOU CAN OFTEN FEEL IT’S ENERGY FOR SOMETHING LIKE 10 METERS AROUND A PERSON - A REALLY GOOD ENERGY PERSON LIKE A TZADDIK WALKS IN THE ROOM AND SHINES JOY AND GOOD ENERGY TO PICK UP AND INSPIRE EVERYONE. SAME THING WITH HEALING - STARTS WITH THE QUALITY AND PURITY OF THE HEALERS ENERGY AND WHAT SPACE HE CAN CONTAIN AND HOW HE MANAGES POSITIVE ENERGY SO HE HAS WHAT TO SHINE AND GIVE!
SO THE OR HACHAIM SAYS THAT FOR TIKUN OLAM - FIXING THE WORLD ENERGY - THESE IDOLATRY CITY PEOPLE JUST PEOPLE GOTTA GO - THIS IS MERCY EVEN THOUGH KILLING IS AN ACT THAT NORMALLY MAKES THE KILLER CRUEL!
TYHERE IS A VERY FAMOUS MAHARAL WHO SAYS IT FORBIDDEN TO GIVE TO SOMEONE WHO IS UNGRATEFUL - BECAUSE THIS WILL CORRUPT THE RECEIVER TO BECOME SELFISH VAMPIRE – MAGI’A LI.
ONCE I ASKED A WELL-KNOWN MASHGIACH WHOM I KNEW WELL: WHY IS IT TRUE THAT THERE ARE SOME MIDDLE AGED CAREER KOLEL YESHIVA PEOPLE THAT SPEND MOST OF THEIR TIME HANGING OUT AND LIKE THE LEFTIST'S SAY - THEY HAVE A PARASITICAL ATTITUDE THAT THEY DESERVE EVERYTHING AND BECOME VAMPIRES AND OFTEN NON PRODCERS TOO! THE MAIN PAIN OF TAKERS IS THAT THEIR UNGRATEFULNESS CLOSES THE CHANNEL OF THE FLOW OF BLESSING FOR ALL THE OTHER S TOO - SO THE MAHARAL QUOTE CHAZAL THAT THEREFORE IT’S FORBIDDEN TO KEEP GIVING TO UNGRATEFUL PEOPLE - IF WE REINFORCE THAT UNGRTEFULNESS PAYS - WHICH REALLY WOULD MEAN TO SAY THAT CRIME PAYS - BRACHA OR BLESSING IS THANKS TO HASHEM - WHICH ENABLES US TO USE THE ENERGY FOR GOOD NOW THAT WE HAVE SAID I DONT OWN MY RESULTS - CLAIMING AUTHORSHIP IN THIS WORLD IS DENIAL OF HASHEM PURE EGO - EDGING G-D OUT - THIS WORLD IS AN ARROW/MARKER TO POINT TO AND PRAISE HASHEM - KINGSHIP FOR US HAS TO BE DALES - VAV - DALES - ON BOTH ENDS - THE RAMBAN SAYS - HAKOL SHAVEH LIFNEI HAMAKOM: IN FACT THE ESSENTIAL PRINCIPLE OF CHINESE MEDICINE IS INTRODUCING STIMULUS TO MOVE ENERGY BLOCKAGE PURPOSEFULLY SO THE FREED UP SYSTEM CAN THEN HEAL ITSELF (FOR YOU FRUMMIES OUT THERE - IT’S FROM THE TORAH - COLLEAGUE STEVEN SHRAM 2002 JOURNAL OF CHINESE MEDICINE - TEFILLIN AN ANCIENT PRESCRIPTION FOR MENTAL CLARITY) - THIS IS WHY HEALING AND ANY MEANINGFUL GROWTH PROCESS HAS TO BE PAINFUL - CHANGE IS NOT EVOKED BY STROKING YOUR EGO - BUT BY THE TZARUS OF WHEN YOUR ARE MIDDOS CHALLENGED CAUSE IT DOES NOT GO YOUR WAY -
SO THE OR HACHAIM SAYS THAT HASHEM PROMISES US THAT BECAUSE AN EIR HANIDAHCAS THAT DOES IDOLATRY NEEDS TO BE DESTROYED THIS DETERMINES THAT BOTH THE JOB DESCRIPTION BECOMES THAT THIS IS REALLY NOT AN ACT OF DESTRUCTION - BUT AN ACTOF CHESED FOR THE WORLD - CERTAINLY EVEN THE WESTERN WORLD IS BEGINNING DTO WAKE UP TO THE FACT THAT DESTROYING IRANS WMD AND SUCH A GOV'T THAT CLAIMS IT’S A MITZVAH TO DO GENOCIDE ON THE JEWS - IS A GREAT CHESED TO THE WORLD!
SO WHAT IS THE 2ND TIME USE OF THE WORD RACHAMIIM SAYS THE OR HACHAIM - NORMALLY A JEW DOES NOT WANT TO USE FORCE OR HAVE TO KILL - WE ATRE AFRAID IT WILL AFFECT OUR MIDDOS TO MAKE US CRUEL PEOPLE IF WE DO CRUEL THINGS - STORY IS TOLD THAT THE ALTER FROM KELM WAS ONCE LOCKED OUT OF HIS HOUSE AND REFUSED TO CRAWL IN THROUGH THEOPEN FROT WINDOW XCAUSE HE FELT IT WOULD INFLUENCE HIS PERSONALITY TRAITS FOR THE WORSE ON HIS LEVEL, SAYS THE OR HACHAIM - THE 2ND TIME USE OF THE WORD RACHAMIM - MERCY TEACHES A PROMISE EVEN WHEN YOU ARE DOING A SEEMINGLY CRUEL BEHAVIOR IN ANY OTHER CONTEXT - IN THIS CONTEXT OF A CITYOF IDOLATORS - HASHEM SAYS THISIS THE MERCIFUL THING FORTHE WORLD TO DO - CONTEXT DEPENDENT - THE WILL OF HASHEM - SO HE PROMISES NOT ONLY WILL THIS SEEMINGLY CRUEL BEHAVIOR NOT MAKE YOU CRUEL - IT WILL HAVE THE COUNTER INTUITIVE EFFECT IN THIS CONTEXT OF MAKING YOU EVEN MORE MERCIFUL! BECAUSE YOU ARE DOING THE WILL OF HASHEM AND BECAUSE THIS ACT IN THIS CONTEXT BRINGS MORE MERCY TO THIS WORLD
EXPLAINING MY REVELATION TONIGHT THAT MADE ME HAPPY AND WANT TO DANCE TO REALIZE I REALLY AM IN THE BEST POSSIBLE TIME BECAUSE IN THIS RELATIVE WORLD OF TIKUN WE ONLY FIX WHEN WE ARE IN OUR TAFKID AND TAFKID OR DUTY IS A STATE OF CLARITY THAT YOU HAVE NO DOUBT YOU ARE DOING WHAT G-D WANTS YOU TO SO YOU HAVE TOTAL MOTIVATED SENSE OF DUTY AND TOTAL LACK OF FEAR BECAUSE YOU ARE CLEAR AND SURE YOU ARE DOING WHAT YOU CAME TO DO - HASHEM SHOWED YOU - BUT HOW CAN YOU KNOW FOR SURE - FOR INSTANCE - EVERYONE IN A FIGHT BELIEVES THEY ARE RIGHT AND THAT'S WHAT GIVES THEM THE POWER AND MOTIVATION TO KEEP FIGHTING - BUT THEY COULD BE WRONG AD JUST STRONG WILLED - THATS WHY WE SPOKE ABOUT THE SEROUS LAWS OF LASHON HARAH - BETTER ASK A HALACHIC AUTHORITY FIRST - NOT ONLY EVERYONE THINKS THEY ARE RIGHT - BUT THERE IS EMBARRASSMENT AND SERVING A PURPOSE THAT CANT BE ACHIEVED OTHERWISE AND OTHER PRECONDITIONS TO JUSTIFY SUCH BEHAVIOR.
A PERSON MUST HAVE A COMPLETE AND CLEAR PROOF WITHOUT FEAR OF BEING WRONG - AND NO OTHER MORE MERCIFUL WAY BECAUSE THE SYSTEMS ASSIGNED TO DO THE JOB DONT WORK, THE PIUACH NEFESH DANGER IS GREAT, IMMEDIATE, ONGOING, CUMULATIVE, AND IRREVERSIBLE!
AND TO TEACH TORAH YOU NEED TO BE HONEST - A TRUTH TELLER - AND MODELING THE BAHAVIOR OF MERCY
