The Lone Star Ger.

Two reasons the Ger Toshav exists today.
By Chaim Clorfene

Every shlomazel that you meet today who wants to talk about new directions in the Noahide movement, will shoot out at you as if with a paintball gun: “The Rambam says there is no Ger Toshav today and that we cannot accept them until the Jubilee Year is reactivated.” Lacking the patience to discuss the matter with these mean-spirited umpa-lumpas, I just tell them wait a couple of months, because a book is coming out that explains it all. It is called The World of the Ger. But I realize that two months is a long time to wait, so I thought I would try to explain it succinctly and simply now to relieve tension in some circles.

This is strictly lishma. We will probably lose a few book sales because of this, but I do not give a fadoodle. So what do I do when someone tells me that the Rambam says there is no Ger Toshav today? I turn to the guy standing next to me and tell him, “Fred, the Rambam says you do not exist. Go hide under a carpet or something.”

Reason Number One for the Ger Toshav existing today:

The head of the baby has emerged from the womb; it is forbidden to cut it off. There are Noahides everywhere who consider themselves Gerim and call themselves Ger. It is a fait accompli. The final hammer blow has been struck. These people call themselves Ger the way a Lubavitcher calls himself Lubavitch or Chabad. The Lubavitcher (as with other Chasidim) has traded his individual identity for his place in the collective Lubavitcher identity. His world is the world of Chabad. He learns what they learn. He is comfortable with his fellow Chabadniks to the exclusion of others. He builds their kind of sukkah and conducts their kind of Pesach Seder, and holds to party line opinions concerning every aspect of Jewish life. So it is with the Ger. He sees himself as Ger, rather than a Ger because he has attached himself to the Torah as a Chasid. His is a Ger world. This is why the Rambam calls B’nai Noah who follow the Seven Laws of Noah Chasidei Umot HaOlam, literally Chasidim from the nations of the world.

Rabbi Avraham Greenbaum refers to them as tinokei sh’nishba – abducted infants. If these fledgling Gerim are liberated and empowered as is the shitta of Rabbi David Katz (the spiritual archaeologist who dug deeply enough to find the Ger), then the Gerim will accomplish great things for G-d, the Torah, and the Jewish people. We can say without reservation that in the Ger, Israel has a friend among the nations, a friend whose constancy can be relied upon. There are some rabbis who want to limit this potential for accomplishment. Instead of placing their finger on the pulse of the Ger, they place their finger on the pulse of someone who has not had a pulse for 850 years. Today is not the today of the Rambam! Duh.

There are great authorities of today and yesterday who hold that the Ger Toshav exists even without the Jubilee Year. Now, to learn who these great authorities are, I am afraid you will just have to wait until The World of the Ger is available for purchase online. I have a right to make a living.

 Reason Number Two for the Ger Toshav existing today:

It says Ger Toshav nowhere in the Torah. Ger Toshav is a rabbinic term. By the same token, it says Ger Tzedek nowhere in the Torah. But the Torah names the Ger sixty times and with respect to most of these times, the Noahide Ger sees this and says, “This is me. I am in the Torah. G-d is telling me through His Torah that I exist. The Torah itself is my accreditation, my teudah.” The Torah does not say that the Ger Toshav exists. The Torah does not say that the Ger Tzedek exists. And the Torah does not really say that the Noahide exists, because of the few times that the Torah mentions B’nai Noah, it refers to the three sons of Noah, Shem, Japheth, and Ham, and not mankind. But the Torah mentions the Ger all over the place – love the Ger, do not taunt the Ger, remember that you were Gerim in Egypt – and the Ger (Toshav) of today says, “Anyone who wants to take that away from me, who wants to pretend that the Torah is not speaking about me when I know that it is – well, I’m from Texas and that man better come loaded for bear.”

 L’Shana tova. May you all be written and sealed for a good year.

Elul and the Ger







Visit Jewish.TV for more Jewish videos.
This video very much reminds me of the Ger, even though the rabbi never mentions it specifically. When he describes the sparks, try thinking of the Ger and coming back through agencies such as Mazal: "From God - and through His Providence."

The World of the Ger - The Newest Book For Noahides!


Tuesday, September 2, 2014

Let The New Year's Learning Begin!





Soul Mazal presents the Grand Opening of our "Universal Torah Outreach" studies; an opportunity to connect with God through authentic Torah. Our Mission Statement is simple and clear, as Aaron the Priest said, "Love Peace, Pursue Peace, Love Creation, and bring them close to God" [Ethics of the Fathers]. We are proud to introduce custom tailor made individual courses to students of all backgrounds and knowledge levels, to help all achieve their goals and dreams of developing a refined Torah relationship with The Creator.

Each student will be invited to "sit" down with Rabbi David Katz, to mutually formulate achievable goals in attaining mastery and proficiency, through Ancient Torah and modern tradition. Through classic sources and authentic material, the student will interview with Rabbi Katz, and together a course will be set, with an attainable goal in mind, and fully guided and aided by Rabbi Katz. The results are aimed to produce a paradigm shift that enters one into a world of spirituality through learning Torah that helps shape one's true divine identity [The Torah's "Ger"/Non-Jew]. **The curriculum is intended to raise students with a fresh point of view, while not replacing each student's own personal affairs and/or local institutions.

Note: Upon completion of efforts, certificates of personal achievements can be made available, expressing unique goals met and viable levels attained.

The vision of Soul Mazal [Universal Torah] is to better Humanity towards a World of repair – one that is inseparable from God and is inhabited with Righteous Gentiles living through Torah.  Soul Mazal breaks the mold of yesterday, by aiming to bring each student onto his or her natural God-given path where he can experience The Divine Hand in his or her Life. Through study, service, and prayer by means of a dedicated lifestyle of substance, our goals can be accomplished. The secret of the Torah yearns to come to life – "we can know God in this World, in this lifetime, by means of full revelation and profound relationship."

The following are a few selected areas of study:

[This list is non-comprehensive; any interest/request can and will be met with enthusiasm]

·        Progression in Righteous Living and Service
·        Proficiency in "Torah of the Ger" [introductory and/or advanced "Righteous Gentile" study/service]
·        Individual study/tutoring sessions of any Text study [with goals of specific proficiency in mind
·        "Study Hall Program" – on-going; personal academic development
·        Introduction to Torah Life – for the new arrival/Hebrew/pronunciation – linguistics; becoming familiar in text, speech, and interaction
·        Leadership and Community building
·        Post- Academic involvement and affiliation
·        Shabbat, Weekly Torah Study, and all special engagement planning and appearances
***Each student will be able to grow in his own desired and natural way***

Be a part of this revolutionary time by learning and participating in Universal Torah. Living in our times is ever becoming the Blessing to connect to Torah's understanding of Humanity, for King Solomon said, "There is nothing new under the sun." The Torah speaks to our generation, and the prophetic change that is happening in the World.

May the Blessings and good tidings of building The Third Temple [House of Prayer for all of Mankind] upon Zion in the merit of the True Torah come speedily in our Day,

Sincerely,

Rabbi David Pesach Katz
Soul Mazal, Universal Torah
