<\/a><\/div>\n

by HaRav Dov Begon
Rosh HaYeshiva, Machon Meir<\/b><\/p>\n

Regarding the camel, it says: \u201cAmong the cud-chewing, hoofed animals, these are the ones that you may not eat: The camel shall be unclean to you although it brings up its cud, since it does not have a true hoof\u201d (Vayikra 11:4). Regarding the pig it says, \u201cThe pig shall be unclean to you although it has a true split hoof, since it does not chew its cud\u201d (v. 7). These two animals have marks of both the kosher animals and the nonkosher animals, but the Torah declares unequivocally, \u201cThey are unclean to you\u201d (v. 8).<\/p>\n

The pig and the camel allude to Christianity and Islam, respectively. Each of these religions boasts that its sources are within Judaism, and each uses the Bible and other Jewish sources to justify its existence. While Christianity spreads out its hooves like the pig, to show how kosher it is, it remains nonkosher on the inside, because it envisions G-d as being a man and claims that G-d abandoned Israel and forged a new covenant, Heaven forbid. Likewise, with Islam, it is true that in their worldview they oppose envisioning G-d as a man, and they claim that they believe in one G-d. Seemingly, they are kosher on the inside, yet when they raise-up the sword against Israel and against other nations, their true face is revealed, that of \u201chis hand being against everyone and everyone\u2019s hand being against him\u201d (Beresheet 16:12).<\/p>\n

Right now, Christianity and Islam share a common concern – how to deal with the rebirth of the Jewish People in Eretz Yisrael and its eternal capital Jerusalem, something which undermines the foundations of their worldview and faith. They are trying by various means, some ostensibly good and peace-like, and others openly wicked and bellicose, to nullify the counsel of G-d. Yet G-d, who loves His people and thinks only good of them, is raising them up to rebirth.<\/p>\n

Indeed, it was in response to such plotting that Dovid HaMelech, sweet singer of Israel, said, \u201cWhy are the nations in uproar? Why do the peoples mutter in vain? The kings of the earth join ranks and the rulers take counsel together, against the L-rd and against His anointed\u201d (Tehilim 2:1-2). Yet, \u201cHe who sits in the heavens laughs; the L-rd holds them in derision. He shall speak to them in His wrath and terrify them in His burning anger\u201d (Ibid., v. 4-5). The Jewish People are G-d\u2019s firstborn son, and they are forever as dear to Him as an infant is to its parents on the day of its birth (see Metzudot David, Ibid.). <\/p>\n

Besorot Tovot,
Shabbat Shalom and Chodesh Tov,
Looking forward to complete salvation,
With the Love of Am Yisrael and Eretz Yisrael.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
