Pensée juive sur Les Psaumes 118:15

The resurrection, the promise made: וְהֵשִׁיב לֵב-אָבוֹת עַל-בָּנִים, וְלֵב בָּנִים עַל-אֲבוֹתָם “And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers” (Malachi 3:23-24) can only happen by the air of the land of Israel. The ethical development of the group is similar to that of the individual. There are two levels - the straight path and the struggle. Just like when the individual has yet to transcend the top of stride for a completely ethical being, while his nature has yet to be molded by the seal of the just and the good, walking the righteous path is difficult for them. They still fight with every step he takes and they have to push their own evil forces; to sometimes conquer and cancel them out. This is not the path of light, yet. Until they will grow using both the light of the Torah with the light of mind and the natural inclination that is awakening in a straight and honest heart. Then they will find that they do not need to be prepared for the inner battles as much. Even when,and if, they will come to a struggle, they will find a totally different kind of courage. They do not need to conquer any of their spiritual powers. There is no need to lock and cage them so they will do nothing. They will be taken with human ties and cords of love and take them to what is good and just, to the highest peaks of the most elevated goals - the divine’s want. And then, one can be set free of its own inner slavery into freedom. With joy, they are crowned with the highest slavery to the divine that is a crown of glory “a crown of refined gold upon his head”. The most highest of ideals,that soars high with no end, until the human eye can no longer see. Where speech and logic cannot gain enough control to call something by its name. When we reach those heights, there is no other option but to stand under the ultimate truth. There is no option to come down and mark anything using our own limited values. That is why we truly call it complete elevation, that rises up to infinite in the name of God’s will and doing God’s work (or worshiping God YT). It’s true that only there is a level that can only be achieved by the individual mental and ideal ascension, as far as it can reach, and after the rich particular mental images, both in idea and practice. And only after the definite understanding that everything that is high and elevated in our imagination has a limit, and that inside the human spirit there is a longing for everything, there is a yearning for all that is above all reason; higher than all measure. And after completely accepting that all good actions are weaved into the general life of the world, and each generation has a singular part out of the infinite path rising up. But said rise, the complete elevation which is ideal in its definite color, can only be found in the divine treasure of life. In it can also be found the highest good that is not restricted in any form, but also all of the ‘smaller’ and ‘minor’ goods. And they are all combined and align with the divine desire that is utterly complete. After all of that, the practical and social life must elevate to the noblest degrees of the uttermost pure thought, one that is more moderate and refined, that rises above all the smallness that is to be found in the life that the masses are condemned to. They have dragged down their greatest authors and thinkers, and now, they too, along with the masses, think that any higher truth or logic, any that is higher than their depths of violence, chaos, and ignorance, they all must be disconnected from real life. But in truth, only the path that turns to the higher aspect of thought and ideals, only it can shed a light on life and fill them with shine and glow. Only that path will return life to its natural foundation that is hidden within every heart and soul. "קול רנה וצהלה באהלי צדיקים ימין ד' עושה חיל ימין ד' רוממה, ימין ד' עושה חיל". The tents of the victorious resound with joyous shouts of deliverance,“The right hand of the LORD is triumphant(Psalms. 118, 15)All of the natural inclinations are standing ready to fulfill the divine, just, and enlighten role. And all mental thoughts are projecting their light to all the land of the living of "אורח צדיקים כאור נוגה ההולך ואור עד נכון היום"“The path of the righteous is like radiant sunlight,Ever brightening until noon.”(proverbs, 4, 18)And so, there is no desolate force, no dark though. Everything is illuminated, it is all alive and ready and willing to serve alongside the archangels and to sing with the angels of heaven. To satiate every living being and to increase the general and individual happiness of the Joy of God in his creations. As the creations are elevated, when they are happy and filled with splendor, there is no sadness and grief, no devil and no demon, only the cover (Sukkah YT) of peace and honor that reaches every sense of life, every inclination and thought, every act and project. And they are all contacting together, so the generation and the nation, both general and individual, will be built from them. , "איש חי רב פעלים מקבצאל שריבה וקבץ פעלים לתורה"“A man of valor of Kabzeel, that had increased and joined together actions into torah” (Brachot 18 B, based on Shmuel 2, 23, 20)There is no war it cannot carry, whatever great force, be it combined with the strongest of the hindrance, will be won by them. And they will use anything that could help them to increase their might, honor, and majesty”, הוא הכה את שני אריאל מואב, והוא ירד והכה את הארי בתוך הבור ביום השלג, והוא הכה את איש מצרי איש מראה וביד המצרי חנית וירד אליו בשבט, ויגזול את החנית מיד המצרי ויהרגהו בחניתו". “He killed the two [sons] of Ariel of Moab.-e Once, on a snowy day, he went down into a pit and killed a lion.He also killed an Egyptian, a huge man. The Egyptian had a spear in his hand, yet [Benaiah] went down against him with a club, wrenched the spear out of the Egyptian’s hand, and killed him with his own spear.(II Samuel 23:21-22)And as it is for the individual, so it is for the collective. When the right path for them is to walk in the lower ranks of general ethics, then even though that path is low, dark, and filled with the chaos of wars, and with all the weight that path brings, the tools to fix it are ready in front of it. The forces of evil are conquered, the upper hand will belong to the straight, justice, good , and the resilience. All of these will stand while they conquer evil, and they are abundant in war and victory both alone and together, while they are using bitter medication in order to get them to stand up on their feet. But regardless, strength and justice are at their side. Such is Judaism outside of the land of Israel, it cannot be completed and fully pure, cause in the end “"כל הדר בחו"ל דומה הוא כמי שאין לו אלה"-All those who live outside of Israel are as if they have no God (Ketubot 110 B)There, in the valley of the shadow of death, there is no option to go about life without aspiring to a complete life, since the social and national lives outside of the land of Israel are poisonous. The air of the lands of the nations gives life to those other nations that can find in it what they seek. They can construct all of their higher tendencies. But the people of Israel will not find there even one of its own unique and important ideals. And that is why our people have to be “limp on his hip”, focus their desires only on fulfilling their individual needs - only what must be done in order to nourish ourselves. And since the air outside of Israel contaminates the Israeli mind and heart, the only possible path is that of the general conquering way. The most plausible path that would lead us to our desires - over there.
