Rabbis and students of Torah take the rise of anti-semitism as a sign of the end times, the days of "final redemption" by their Messiah...

LETTER TO THE
BROTHERS AND
SISTERS IN CHRIST
【WAKE UP AND BE PREPARED
FOR A TIME OF CLARIFICATION】
For Zion’s sake I will not keep silent, for
Jerusalem’s sake I will not remain quiet, till her
vindication shines out like the dawn, her salvation like
a blazing torch. 2 The nations will see your
vindication, and all kings your glory; you will be
called by a new name that the mouth of the LORD will
bestow. 3 You will be a crown of splendor in the
LORD’s hand, a royal diadem in the hand of your God.
4 No longer will they call you Deserted, or name your
land Desolate. But you will be called Hephzibah, and
your land Beulah; for the LORD will take delight in
you, and your land will be married. 5 As a young man
marries a young woman, so will your Builder marry
you; as a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will
your God rejoice over you. 6 I have posted watchmen
on your walls, Jerusalem; they will never be silent day
or night. You who call on the LORD, give yourselves
no rest, 7 and give him no rest till he establishes
Jerusalem and makes her the praise of the earth.
8 The LORD has sworn by his right hand and by his
mighty arm: “Never again will I give your grain as
food for your enemies, and never again will foreigners
drink the new wine for which you have toiled; 9 but
those who harvest it will eat it and praise the LORD,
and those who gather the grapes will drink it in the
courts of my sanctuary.”
10 Pass through, pass through the gates! Prepare
the way for the people. Build up, build up the
highway! Remove the stones. Raise a banner for the
nations. 11 The LORD has made proclamation to the
ends of the earth: “Say to Daughter Zion, ‘See, your
Savior comes! See, his reward is with him, and his
recompense accompanies him.’” 12 They will be called
the Holy People, the Redeemed of the LORD; and you

We believe in one GOD, in three
persons; FATHER, SON and
HOLY SPIRIT. We regard the
Bible (both Hebrew Bible and
New Testament) as the only
infallible authoritative
WORD OF GOD.
HULDAH MINISTRY aims to return
to the Word Of God, founded on
Hebrew background and to interpret
it from Hebraic perspective,
acknowledging that Jesus is a Jew
and the Jewish-ness of His teaching
as a continuation from the Hebrew
Bible. The Ministry also aims to put
His teaching into practice, to have a
closer relationship with the Lord,
Jesus Christ, and to regularly have
a Christian fellowship so that this-
worldly kingdom of God will
materialise in the midst of the
followers of Jesus here and now, as
well as earnestly seeking Christ's
Return to establish the otherworldly
Kingdom of God on earth.
All activities are free of charge and no obligation
whatever. Just enjoy our fellowship!

will be called Sought After, the City No Longer Deserted. ISAIAH 62.
The passage quoted above is one of the prophecies about the future of Jerusalem in God’s plans where
Jerusalem will be the city of God in the last days when the kingdom of God comes to the earth. The new
will emerge from the old but it will be completely different from the old. The glorious city of Zion, i.e.,
Jerusalem will be ‘called by a new name’ and ‘the Holy People, the Redeemed of the LORD’ gathered in
from all nations as well as from Israel will inhabit there. The passage depicts that when the promised
Messiah, the Redeemer comes, His people will no longer be plundered and exploited by their enemies.
Instead, the city will be filled with the redeemed, holy and righteous people and the whole earth will be
full of joy.
We, living in the last great era of human history, are now beginning to see what Isaiah prophesied with
confidence and clarity. Year after year, anti-semitic incidents such as the recent massacre at the Tree of
Life synagogue in Pittsburgh of the US, in 27th Oct., are on the increase worldwide. Rabbis and bible-
believing Jews are starting to connect such anti-semitic trend worldwide with the “end of days” or the
days of “final redemption” by their Messiah. In this way, they are able to see the positive in what is going
on now because they believe in God, His promises and prophecies written in the Hebrew Bible, i.e., the
Old Testament.
Rabbi Shimon Apisdorf is one of them. According to an article, he claims that if anti-semitism is a tool
to help Jewish people find deeper significance in their role, it would send out a positive message about the
end of days in the aftermath of the tragedy of the synagogue massacre. He describes it as follows: ‘It’s
coming about through an incredibly horrific event, but a real thing that’s coming about is that tons of non-Jews are
coming to identify with a Jewish message’. He also claims that the rise in anti-semitism in general, and the
Pittsburgh massacre specifically, has brought about a connection of human beings one to another, despite
their differences, which is a core Jewish message to the world, and that we all need to see one another as
being created in the image of God. Rabbi Apisdorf and others also point out another spiritual significance
of the rise in anti-semitism; that Jewish national endurance in the face of anti-semitism comes from the
Torah and belief in God. A student of Torah who has named anti-semitism “a wake-up call” warns the
Jewish people and the world about the blindness of the vast majority of them to what is happening today
in the world.
While the general public is spiritually sleeping, there is a small group of autistic young men in
Jerusalem who are claiming to hear from God. According to an article, one of those who is gifted with the
power of prophecy and have for several years attracted attention of many, warns that the difficult times
preceding Messiah are very near, i.e., the Messiah is about to be revealed. The most recent message given
by him was published on the website, Ki La’Hashem Melucha, a Hebrew language website dealing with
Jewish mysticism and the end-of-days. The young man, having transmitted his messages via facilitated
communication (FC), a technique that has been in use since at least 1985 as a way of communicating with
those who cannot speak normally, put it: ‘Most people don’t want to understand that we are near the end …The
Messiah is about to be revealed but we have to undergo something very difficult first. God is going to destroy two-
thirds of the world. Don’t think this is going to be due to a nuclear war, though that may be part of it. Man can’t destroy
the world. Only God, who created the world, can destroy it’.
After referring to a star, which is in a prophecy written in the “Zohar”, the basis for Jewish mysticism,
which states; ‘in the end of days, astronomical phenomena, including a war between seven stars, will be seen from
earth’, he also mentions that another process essential to the end of days would be “a clarification”, to
what each individual belongs is to be clarified. He would have meant by it, that own faith expression in
Yahweh is to be required. He also describes how to prepare for them: ‘The only way to save ourselves is full
confidence in God. …Even if you have a bunker, weapons, food, and water…for a few years, it will not help you if you
do not do teshuvah (repentance). And if you do teshuvah, God will take care of you: food, water, electricity and all that
is needed. …like when the Jews left Egypt. … as the plagues did not harm the Am Yisrael, the Jews will not suffer’.
While FC is not necessarily universally accepted as means to carry out a right of the free will, it is
worth noting that the “Zohar” states the special prophetic ability of shotim, who is described in rabbinic
literature not as ‘fools’, but as a person with distinctive lack of social functioning, in whose classification
autistic people would be included. The “Zohar” reads: ‘Before disaster and destruction happens to some nation,
Heaven announces this throughout the whole world, and sometimes this is transmitted to shotim’.
We hope all the blessings and peace of this special Season
Will light up your life with Faith, Hope and Love.
Wherever and Whoever we are,
JESUS CHRIST is God’s Gift for us!
