You don't have to be a pessimist to see that disaster follows disaster, everything is collapsing, as the kabbalist the righteous Gamliel Rabinowitz said: "The entire public, I want the whole world to hear this, let the great ones of Israel see this. We received three blows: 1. Corona 2. Lag B'Omer 3. Shavuot."

Everyone is searching for the root and reason for all the disasters that are befalling us one after another. It's not that everything was quiet before, but the disasters and troubles are only becoming more intense and powerful, until it's clear to everyone that they are coming for a special reason - like a voice calling us to awaken.

About four years ago during the previous wave of fires, the esteemed kabbalist the righteous Rav Dov Kook shlit"a from Tiberias said:

"All the severe fires raging now in the Zikhron Ya'akov area are because they are persecuting and distressing the holy tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, especially since the attribute of judgment has struck us in the north. We need to know that the severe fires raging there in several locations are because Rav Berland is in the northern area near Tiberias, and the Midrash says that when they persecute and disgrace the tzaddikim, Hashem brings fires to the world!"

"And let all those who slander and speak lies about such a holy and awesome tzaddik be careful, for soon his honor and innocence will be revealed to all." Thus far his holy words.

People of Israel, wake up, does this seem natural? Does it seem coincidental? Right after the decision against the Rav shlit"a and suddenly the whole country is on fire!! Again!! Enough, really, when will we awaken?!

But we do not internalize these things and play with fire, with the neshamot of the people of Israel, and here for the third time in history, they bring an 84-year-old Jewish tzaddik to court, confined to a stretcher, covered with a tallit - and the state returned to burning.

The kabbalists and hidden tzaddikim warn, God forbid, it won't get worse

With the start of the latest wave of disturbances in Gaza and at home, the elder kabbalist, the righteous Amos Guetta shlit"a from Netanya said:

"For a long time, the people of Israel are silent, and the great ones of Israel are silent, and the whole world is silent - about the disgrace of a great tzaddik, the tzaddik of the generation, which is Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, who is disgraced from morning till night."

"Rav Berland shlit"a has been tormented for a year and a half in prison - he has not yet been judged and everyone is afraid to protest. And now they led the Rav to the district with an intensive care unit vehicle into the courthouse."

"Rabbi Amos screamed, he is filmed, he screamed: 'If they do not protest for the honor of Rabbi Eliezer Berland, there will be a disaster a thousand times greater.'"

The Meron Disaster

The last time they disgraced the esteemed righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, and brought him with a stretcher and in disgrace to the district court, three days later, unfortunately and to our heartache - the severe disaster in Meron occurred. 250 kosher Jews who came to the holy celebration of Rabbi Shimon in Meron left the holy site on stretchers to hospitals.

The Karlin Disaster

After about a week, and again, ignoring the pain and suffering of the people of Israel, and for the second time, they again lead the esteemed righteous Rabbi Berland shlit"a on a stretcher to court - and again, to the heartache of the people of Israel and the holy victims, the heavy and horrifying disaster occurred on Shavuot in Karlin. And again dozens of stretchers went to various hospitals, and again holy losses in body and soul.

And the Earth Opened Its Mouth

The esteemed righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland said in the past about Parshat Korach:

"Korach was destined from heaven for a great role - Hashem gave him the gift of speech, to be an eloquent speaker by divine grace to unite and strengthen the people, to bring them back to believe in Moshe Rabbeinu. Because he knew well who Moshe Rabbeinu was, he just couldn't overcome his jealousy and hatred."

And here comes Parshat Korach, the parsha where the scripture teaches us about the severe dispute of Korach and his assembly against Moshe Rabbeinu, and again the esteemed righteous Rabbi Berland shlit"a is brought to a hearing while confined to a stretcher and covered with a tallit, and what is the response?

At that time, exactly at 13:59 when the stretcher left the courthouse into the ambulance on its way to the hospital.., the earth opened its mouth in the parking lot of Shaare Zedek Hospital in Jerusalem, swallowing whole cars and giant trees.

Only by a great miracle was a massive disaster averted: Aharon Miller, a paramedic from MDA, told Yossi Stark who was present at the collapse moments and was miraculously saved, that by the grace of heaven a terrible tragedy was averted: "If the sinkhole had opened shortly after, during the shift change at the hospital at 15:00 - there would have been dozens of fatalities, God forbid, it was truly a miracle."

They have mercy on us and hint to us to understand.., it is too directed and deep to be a coincidence, and it happens exactly in Parshat Korach where it is told about the 250 heads of Sanhedrin who disputed and disgraced Moshe Rabbeinu and the end is already known.

Because, "And Hashem seeks the pursued" (Ecclesiastes 3:15)

People of Israel, compassionate ones, must awaken and pray for the cessation of the dispute, disgrace, incitement, and oppression of the tzaddik, the foundation of the world, the esteemed righteous Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a, with no one to open their mouth and protest.

Because, "A rabbi who forgives his honor - his honor is not forgiven" (Kiddushin 32a)...
