Isaiah 11

Children of Moab

The scattered ones of Judah

Islands of the Sea

יְשַׁעְיָהוּ: הַרְחִיבִי | מְקוֹם אָהֳלֵךְ וִירִיעוֹת מִשְׁכְּנוֹתַיִךְ יַטּוּ אַל תַּחְשׂכִי הַאֲרִיכִי מֵיתָרַיִךְ וִיתֵדֹתַיִךְ חַזֵּקִי

Jonathan Zasloff: The prophecy deliberately creates ambiguity.
Jonathan Zasloff: In Transit, the elder teenage daughter dates a Jewish boy and does not understand when her mother speaks Tagalog.
Her younger brother develops a warm friendship with an elderly Holocaust survivor being cared for by the boy’s father. The old man teaches the young boy a love of Judaism, including how to leyn the weekly parasha. 
I know: it’s a movie. We might wonder how many Filipino kindergarteners can leyn their parasha.
Jonathan Zasloff: Refugees and migrant workers throughout the world see Israel as a prime destination. They are not fools. They want to become Israeli. Israel’s response to this potential influx has not exactly made it a light to the nations. 
More than 300,000 migrant workers – mostly from China, the Philippines, and eastern Europe — do the lion’s share of the unseen 
Jonathan Zasloff: God has given contemporary Jewry the precious gift of foreign nations seeking us. This is strange, and unfamiliar, and an enormous opportunity.

בִּנְיָמִין נְתַנְיָהוּ: Just look around you: the Middle East is in chaos. States are Disintegrating. Militant Isla~mists are Fil-ing the Void.

בִּנְיָמִין נְתַנְיָהוּ: I am entrusted with the awesome responsibility of ensuring the future of the Jewish People and the future of the Jewish State; and no matter what pressure is brought to bear, I will never waver in fulfilling that responsibility. I believe that, with a fresh Approach frum our neighbors, we can advance peace, despite the difficulties we face, but the old template for peace must be updated. It must take into account new realities and new roles and responsibilities for our Arab neighbors. Ladies and Gentlemen, there is a new Middle East. ET presents new Dangers, but also new Opportunities: ll this may fly in the Face of conventional wisdom, but ET’s the truth. Isaiah, our great prophet of peace, taught, nearly 3,000 years ago, in Jerusalem, to speak truth to power: 
לְמַעַן צִיּוֹן לֹא אֶחֱשֶׁה וּלְמַעַן יְרוּשָׁלִַם לֹא אֶשְׁקוֹט עַד-יֵצֵא כַּנֹּגַהּ צִדְקָהּ וִישׁוּעָתָהּ כְּלַפִּיד יִבְעָר
Ladies and Gentlemen, let’s light a torch of truth and justice to safeguard our camman~future. Thank You
Nena C. Benigno: The dramatic rescue plan for the Jews was devised by three men who mapped out a strategy over weekend nights playing poker and smoking cigars. They were: Quezon, who would sanction the Jews’ official entry and even donate his own land in Marikina and Mindanao for their settlements; American High Commissioner to the Philippines Paul McNutt, who risked his political career convincing US government officials to issue thousands of working visas for Jews to the Philippines; and Herbert Frieder and his sons, owners of the Philippine-based Helena Cigar and Cigarette Factory, who provided jobs in their factory for the Jews, raised money to transport them to Manila, found them housing and schools for their children.

Reprinted from “I Await His Coming Every Day” (Kehot Publication Society, 1991) Adapted & Translated by Rabbi Eliyahu Touger Edited by Uri Kaploun.: After quoting and analyzing several references to Mashiach in Bilaam’s prophecy, the Rambam begins a second halachah with these words: 
Similarly, in regard to the Cities of Refuge, it is stated, "When G‑d will expand your borders… you shall add three more cities." This command has never been fulfilled.
Yeshayahu 41:2,3;25: Who aroused from the East, [the one] whom righteousness accompanied? He placed nations before him and over kings He gave him dominion; He made his sword like dust, his bow like wind-blown stubble. He pursued them and passed on safely, on a path upon which he had not come with his feet. I have aroused from the north and he came; from the rising of the sun he shall call in My name. And he shall come [upon] princes like mortar and as the potter treads clay.
Israel in the Philippines: Mayor Joseph Ejercito Estrada and Ambassador Menashe Bar On with Deputy Chief of Mission Mr. Adam Levene as they accept the key to the city of Manila.

Walang ligaya sa lupa na hindi dinilig ng luha.

Filipino Proverb: There is no earthly bliss not watered by tears.

Bnei Lot are of an ancient origin. In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
