God Bless You, Bob Woodson

Mark Levin has Bob Woodson on his show as a guest right now; Mr Woodson has started something called the 1776 project to counter the 1619 project, and he is also talking about many of the things that his Woodson Center does. One thing he talked about really struck me: He said that in general, about 70% of kids raised in the inner city end up being dysfunctional. This means that 30% are ok, so his organization works with families who kids are doing ok to find out what they are doing right, to learn from them, so as to replicate their success.

Mr Woodson is a vocal supporter of marriage and fatherhood. It goes without saying that marriage and fatherhood must be supported, but the fact remains: some fatherless children end up basically ok, and lots don’t. It can’t hurt to try to figure out what some single mothers are doing right.

Based on what I have observed among single mothers I know whose kids turned out fine? They gave up everything for their kids. The kids observed this, and appreciated it, but the kids also knew that they didn’t want to live the way their mothers did, so they got married before having kids-something which their mothers very strongly encouraged.

There have always been single mothers and fatherless children; I don’t know anyone who believes in zero tolerance for unwed mothers. The religious conservatives I know and am aware of want to help single mothers in every way possible, but leftists attack us for saying that it is (far) better to wait until marriage for children. But it’s The Truth, and it’s just one part of The Truth which Bob Woodson preaches, Bless him.

Those who are interested can learn more by visiting his website: https://woodsoncenter.org/

Unfortunately, his website seems to be experiencing some glitches, maybe this is due to high traffic because of his appearance on television right now? Hoping the glitches clear up 🙂

Lovely to see! And I came across an excellent introductory history book, that adults could learn from, too. It’s called “Land of Hope”, by Wilfred M. McClary, written to respond to the “1619ers”, Howard Zinn, and even Jon Stewart….We’re beginning to fight.

People through their decisions and actions either build the social fabric of society or they rip apart this social fabric. BLM in my opinion fits the latter category.

שמע קולנו ה’ אלהינו, חוס ורחם עלינו, וקבל ברחמים וברצון את תפלתנו, כי אל שומע תפלות ותחנונים אתה, ומלפניך מלכנו, ריקם אל תשיבנו. כי אתה שומע תפלת עמך ישראל ברחמים: ברוך אתה ה’, שומע תפלה.
Our sages within the masoret of our Talmud teach: tefilla learns from
שמואל א ב:א. ותתפלל חנה ותאמר עלץ לבי בה’ רמה קרני בה’ רחב פי על אויבי כי שמחתי בישועתך.

Tefilla learns from Egypt. Tefilla, the avodat HaShem of the Cohen people. What causes Israel to abandon the Cohen faith?
שופטים יז:ו. בימים ההם אין מלך בישראל איש הישר בעיניו יעשה…יח:א. שבט הדני מבקש לו נחלה לשבת חי לא נפלה לו עד היום ההוא בתוך שבטי ישראל בנחלה…כא:כה. איש הישר בעיניו יעשה. כלל, פרט, כלל.
יג:א. ויסיפו בני ישראל לעשות הרע בעיני ה’ ויתנם ה’ ביד פלשתים ארבעים שנה. יג:ח,ט. ויעתר מנוח אל ה’ ויאמ בי אדוני איש האלהים אשר שלחת יבוא נא עוד אלינו ויורנו מה נעשה לנער היולד. וישמע האלהים בקול מנוח ויבא מלאך האלהים עוד אל האשה וכו’.
נזיר כנג נזיר … שמשון כנגד שמואל. יעתר כנגד תפילה: שמות ח: כד. העתירו בעדי.

The Book of שופטים teaches that Israel behaved without דרך ארץ among their own. Par’o too lacked דרך ארץ in his relationship with Israel. Did שמשון behave with דרך ארץ on par שמואל? No, based on the conclusion of שופטים: אין מלך בישראל. The language of מלכות refers to a persons command over tohor middot. When tuma middot govern within the heart of Israel, we – as a collective people – break faith with the brit Cohen relationship. The Gemara of ברכות commands the halaka which requires that a blessing have שם ומלכות. The meaning of this halaka, that a person commands his tohor middot to rule over the tuma middot within his heart. Herein defines the blessing by which Yitzak did bless Yaacov.

Whether Moshe sent to Egypt, or Hanna rejoicing over the birth of שמואל, the k’vanna of tefilla: the commitment by the Cohen people to dedicate tohor middot unto HaShem, as expressed in our social behavior among Yidden. Petitions to HaShem for things we want compares to the Goyim custom of Xmas. If we keep our part of the brit alliance, HaShem rains blessing down upon our nation.

The closing blessing of שמע קולנו makes רמז to the Moshiach, from the commandment to set aside the house of Aaron, to the mitzva which sanctifies the generations of the house of David to obey the commandments and mitzvot, to the posok halaka established by the rabbis to this very day. The gradations of Moshiach as expressed through commandments, mitzvot, and halakot, they all refine the tohor middot within the hearts of the Cohen nation.

As our forefathers endured the oppression of slavery, the domination of oppression caused a majority of our own people to resist the desire to view other Yidden with צר עיין or speak לשון הרע. The years after the Shoah the nation state of Israel rose from the ashes of Europe, and Xtians went into moral exile – post poop Pius XII,the Church lost influence as the defining moral authority among Europeans.

The classic concept of the prophetic mitzva of Moshiach learns from ישעיה. There that prophet employs the משל of עמנו אל. The casting off of local sovereignty conflicts upon the dung heaps of g’lut … unto the Assyrian siege of Jerusalem. Israel made demand unto שמואל to anoint a king to fight their wars. The king of Israel, not a man of flesh and blood but rather the sworn oath brit cut at Gilgal – Rashi tefillen. HaShem judged the Gods of Sennacherib just as HaShem did judge the Gods of Par’o. Herein defines the k’vanna ofשמע קולנו.
