SHABBAT SHALOM, AM YISRAEL CHAI, HAG PURIM SAMEACH (Happy Purim) and L’CHAYIM (to life)! Always standing up for Israel and our Jewish family!
DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?
EVEN for PURIM, this is CRAZY! It is the beyond of the beyond!!
GENUINELY MINDBLOWING … but TRUE! (CHECK IT OUT!)
As we celebrate Purim this year, we should remember that there are things happening on levels beyond that which we can even begin to comprehend, and that we are so fortunate/blessed to be part of this amazing life adventure! Purim is also a reminder that when things look bleak, something we are all facing now on a world scale, that they can still turn around for the better!
*** CHECK OUT THIS SUPERCRAZY, SEEMINGLY MIRACULOUS ASPECT OF THE MEGILLAH (Purim scroll), which recounts the Purim story! In this remarkable tale, Queen Esther steps up to save the Jewish people from imminent destruction! Even today, Jews celebrate the occasion with unbounded joy!
The ULTIMATE L’CHAYIM? There are those who believe that you should celebrate Purim by drinking so much booze that you can’t tell the difference between “Blessed be Mordecai!” (Esther’s uncle, and also a hero), and “Cursed be Haman,” the evil adversary who sought to destroy the Jews and who gets “BOOED” repeatedly during the retelling of the story every time his name is mentioned!
*** In the scroll’s narrative, there is a separate paragraph with a list naming each of Haman’s ten sons when they are killed by hanging. Here, peculiarly, there are also several half size letters and a large one. Based on gematria, when each Hebrew letter is assigned a numerological value, these letters correspond to 5707. (Detailed explanation below)
*** In the latter part of the Purim story, Haman and his sons had already been killed. The king then asks Queen Esther what he can do for her for helping save the kingdom? Surprisingly, her request is to hang the ten (evil) sons. Doesn’t seem to make much sense since they are already dead!
*** Jump forward to modern times, and the Nuremberg trials, where eleven N**i war criminals are sentenced to be hung for their crimes. (This in itself was unusual, since at that time, societies were no longer hanging people.) Goring commits su***de, which leaves ten of these evil men to be hung. The year is 1946, which is the equivalent of 5707 on the Jewish calendar. 5707, the same number referenced to hanging the ten evil ones! CRAZY!
BUT WAIT, THERE’S MORE! Julius Streicher, the last of the N**i war criminals to be hung, right before his death, cries out: PURIMFEST 1946! SAY WHAT?
*** Really, what are the odds that a N**i war criminal would invoke an obscure Jewish holiday with his last breath? Amazingly ridiculous!
*** And how incredible are the odds that the different size letters in the Megillah, referring to the hanging of the ten sons, would correspond to a date in modern times when ten more evil ones were hung? Beyond of the beyond! MIRACULOUS!
*** God is not mentioned at all in the Megillah, but a hidden Force definitely seems to be working behind the scenes in the amazing way everything comes together. And if we look closely enough, we can see this same incredible Power still manipulating events in our own lifetime.
As we celebrate Purim this year, we should remember that there are things happening on levels beyond that which we can even begin to comprehend, and that we are so fortunate/blessed to be part of this amazing life adventure! Purim is also a reminder that when things look bleak, something we are all facing now on a world scale, that they can still turn around for the better! Ken Yehi Ratzon! (Let it be so!)
(Purim lesson for all times! – Stand with peaceful, democratic, freedom loving people against evil, bullying tyrants! Stand with Israel and the Jewish people!)
Hope you and yours have a spiritually connecting, meaningful and recharging Shabbat and a wonderful Purim celebration!
SHABBAT SHALOM, AM YISRAEL CHAI, HAG PURIM SAMEACH (HAPPY PURIM) and L’CHAYIM!

Explanation:
“Megilat Esther lists the names of Haman’s 10 sons and according to the Halacha, three of the letters in these names are written in smaller font than the rest of the text – a tav, a shin and a zayin – and one letter is written in larger font – a vav. What do these unusually sized letters signify? For generations different explanations have been offered. In the 20th century, however, another amazing meaning was discovered. The large vav is numerically 6, corresponding to the sixth millennium; the small tav, shin and zayin are numerically 707; together, these numbers refers to the 707th year of the sixth millennium – in other words, the Jewish year 5707, which corresponds to 1946, the year in which these 10 high-ranking N**is were hanged. Thus, the unusually sized letters – vav, tav, shin and zayin – found in the names of Haman’s 10 sons allude to the year of the ex*****on of these 10 N**i war criminals.”
