This protest was titled dangerous “Operation Gridlock.”.

endtimeheadlines--2020-04-17--10 Signs Revealing that the Messiah’s Arrival is Imminent

OPINION ( BIN ) – More than 1500 years ago , rabbis discussed many signs that would precede the coming of the Messiah and the inauguration of the messianic era .
Last week , Jewish activist and founder of the Israel Dog Unit Yekutiel Ben Yaakov ( Mike Guzofsky ) delivered a talk in which he connected many of these ancient signs to current events .
Here are ten of the messianic prophecies that Ben Yaakov understands are being fulfilled in our day .
1 – Young will shame the old .
The Rabbis teach that “ In the generation @ @ @ @ @ @ @ rabbinic reference to Messiah , son of David ) will come , young people will shame the old.
” Ben Yaakov argued that this was fulfilled with the oft-expressed opinion , particularly in the early stages of the virus , that since COVID-19 was only affecting the elderly , young people should not have their movements restricted .
“ So many people were prepared to sacrifice the old , just for a little bit of instant gratification and social needs .
People were prepared to endanger the sick and the elderly , ” @ @ @ @ @ @ @ of Biblical scholars The Rabbis teach that , “ In the generation when the son of David will come , the number of Torah scholars will decrease.
” Ben Yaakov pointed out that a shockingly high number of Orthodox rabbis have lost their lives to the coronavirus .
“ It literally says that before Moshiach comes , you ’ re going to see all these rabbis dying , ” he explained .
3 – Costly sustenance The Rabbis teach that , “ The vine will produce its fruit yet wine will be expensive.
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ Israel , local farmers are being forced to throw away produce because they can ’ t compete on price with imported produce .
There ’ s plenty , but the prices they would have to charge to make a living are too high to sell .
He also emphasized that food is available , but because of curfews and isolation , people can ’ t go to the stores easily to buy food .
“ The produce is there , but people can ’ t get to it , ” he noted .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , “ He will not come until the perutah ( a small coin of little value ) has gone from the purse.
” In other words , until people become poor .
Ben Yaakov stated that we are beginning to see that happening .
For people whose places of employment have been closed and where production has been restricted , there is no work and there are no salaries .
So many people don ’ t have the financial stability to manage the global financial crisis connected to the coronavirus that governments are @ @ @ @ @ @ @ financially .
He added , “ Moshaich ( Messiah ) won ’ t come until we have a situation where we ’ re looking for basic food .
We see empty shelves in Europe and around the world .
