Nazi Germany Prophecy Connected to Purim and Megillah of Esther (14 Minutes)

1:39meaning that they were the gilgul of Haman's sons. And there's a recording of this, and you can literally see these Nazis, who didn't speak Hebrew or anything like that, actually mention Purim before they're executed. When was this? This is after, this is about 60 years ago. After World War II. World War II was completed in 1945, so I think they were executed a few years later, probably around 1948 or 1950, when they caught them. Right, when they caught everybody. So that's another thing. Another thing that's amazing about this week's parasha, but since it took a while to talk about that topic, we'll go over a few interesting things about this parasha. The Gemara says in Masechet Megillah, it talks about Purim. It says, where is Mordechai in the Torah? The written Torah is two parts, in essence. There's the Five Books of Moses, which is what we got at Mount Sinai. But then there's the rest of the Tanach. You know, the Tehillim, Mishlei, you know, all of the other books that were written later. So the Torah that we got from Hashem at Mount Sinai is the Five Books of Moses.

3:03It's the core part of the written Torah. So the Gemara asks, where, you know, where is Mordechai referenced in the Torah? And where is Esther referenced in the Torah? They're not mentioned explicitly in the five books of Moses. And one of the things that Hashem told us is that there's nothing new under the sun. One of the interpretations is that nothing new that people are inventing today or think that they're inventing or innovating. It's nothing new. It's already been here forever. And also, it means that everything that ever happened, is happening, or will happen is in the Torah. Even this conversation, there are ways to find it in the Torah. Everything that ever exists is in the Torah. This is a divine book. It's not a book that some guy wrote. It's a book that Hashem wrote. And there's something called codes, codes in the Torah... It's something that we only started learning how to use after the time of Chazal, in the days of the Gemara, and things like that. They knew about this, obviously, but they were on a much, much higher level than us. However, in our generations, or even in the last 1500 years or so—at a minimum, a few hundred years—we don't possess the mental capacity that Rabbi Akiva had, or Moshe Rabbeinu had, or any of these great leaders. So,

4:30About, I think it's about maybe 50, 60 years ago, one of the great sages observed that there is something called codes in the Torah. This means you can find different instances using a formula where you might be searching for certain names. For instance, you're looking for the name Hitler. So you would look, you would type in this computer program the name Hitler, in Hebrew obviously, and you would ask the computer program to find the name Hitler in the Torah using equal mathematical skips. This means they would search for the name, beginning with the first letter, which is Hei. Then it would look for the next letter, Yud, with the specified number of skips between each letter. Okay, but the yud would have to be a certain number of letters. And then after the yud, the next letter would have to be the same number of letters. So, let's say if you're looking for a certain word, all of these letters would have to have, in order for the word to be qualified as something that's valid, the same number of skips between each letter. So, for example, the hei would have to have, let's say, five letters or ten letters. And then the yud would also have to have five letters.

5:55the same thing as the other one, and between each letter would have to be the same mathematical skip. So whether it's five or it's 50 or it's three, in essence, the lower the number, the lower the skip, the more you see that this is by design there. So for example, when they looked for the word "Hitler," and they also looked for all the related words like "Holocaust" or "the camps," or even the name of the country, All of those words appeared on one page in the Torah. All of those codes. You have over 304,000 letters in the Torah, but these codes, all of these words, appeared on one page. And that specific page, not only that, but on top of it, that specific page, what was it talking about? It was talking about the punishment that Hashem would give Am Yisrael for not following His laws. Another example is when we looked for things related to the disease AIDS. They found the word "AIDS," and on that same page, they found "monkey," "homosexuality," and various related words. Interestingly, the actual page they found these words on was discussing AIDS.

7:23a page of the Torah that discusses sex crimes. So it's not only that you're finding all of these words on the same page that are related to each other, but the parasha that it's on is related to what the words are, showing that this is there by design. So the Gemara asks, where is Mordechai in the Torah? Now, remember I said that the smaller the skip, the separation between each letter, the better. Meaning if it's five letters, between one letter and five letters, between the second letter and fifth letters, between the third and fifth letters, between the fifth, it's better. So Mordechai, the Gemara says, mor deror. In this parasha, in this week's parasha, so it's not only in the Torah, but it's in this week's parasha, it says, Ve'atah kach lecha besamim rosh, mor deror, chamesh me'ot, u'kineman bosem machatzito.

8:23So, this is a verse that talks about how Hashem is telling Moshe to make, in essence, this perfume. To make this specific type of perfume as part of the services in the Mishkan. So it says, the Gemara states that the name Mordechai can be found in this word, "Mara Dachya." This word, these two words, are in this verse. Okay, so "Mara Dachya" in Aramaic actually means Mordechai. Great, it's cute, nice. But then once we discovered this computer program, we saw that if you use the first letter of "Mara," which is Mem, as the first letter in the calculation, and then you skip 12,196 letters, you find the letter "Resh." Another 12,196 letters, you find the letter "Dalet." Another 12,196 letters, you find "Resh," and then again the letter "Yud." You find the name "Mordechai." Remember a few minutes ago, I said the fewer letters, the better.

9:45So why is 12,196 letters even acceptable? Because 12,196 letters is exactly the number of letters in Megillat Esther. If it was five letters or ten letters less, great, nice, it's like all the other things. But when it's exactly the same number as in Megillat Esther, which was written a thousand years after... The Torah was written. It wasn't written at the same time. A thousand years later, it knows already the exact number of letters in the Megillah that's going to be written a thousand years later, and it's going to have it there, and it's in the Gemara. The same thing it says for Esther. Esther is actually in Deuteronomy. Deuteronomy is Sefer Devarim. Sefer Devarim. Very interesting. These are different things. This is stuff that shows that there is no way in the world that this book, this Torah, was written by a human being. Even the greatest human being ever couldn't even write one page in the Torah.

11:15So in the Gemara, it says Esther is in verse Devarim 31:18. It’s talking about how Hashem says, "I will hide My face on that day." because of the evil that Am Yisrael did. Which is what happened in Megillat Esther. We sinned. We went to the party that Achashverosh and the Goyim were having. We weren't allowed to go there. We were doing exactly what Hashem told us not to do. Don't act like the Goyim. Don't eat what they eat. Don't dress like they dress. Don't do what they do. Don't marry their women. He told us specifically, and what did we do? We did it anyway. So He says, when you do that, I'm going to hide Myself, and you're going to think that I left you. And that's part of the reason why His name is hidden from Megillat Ester. But Ester is also written in the Megillah with the word "Aleph Samech Taf Resh." In this verse, it's written as "Haster," which is with a "Hey." So they say that "Haster," you know, when we first understood, they said, "Okay, so in this word, it says 'Haster.'" Okay, it's interesting. You know, it sounds the same as "Ester." Interesting.

12:45But if you go to the first letter, and you proceed to the aleph, and you skip 12,196 letters for each one of the subsequent letters, again you find the name. Remarkably, this is the same number of letters as in Megillat Esther. These are amazing phenomena like this that leave us in awe and demonstrate the profound depth contained within the Torah. You see in the Torah that there are things that show you this is not only a divine book, but that Hashem Himself put this together.
