Watch: The Final Clarification—When Ben David Comes

"Awake, O sword, against My shepherd, and against the man that is My fellow, saith Hashem of hosts; smite the shepherd, and the sheep shall be scattered; and I will turn My hand upon the small ones. And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith Hashem, two parts therein shall be cut off and die; but the third shall be left therein. And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried; they shall call on My name, and I will answer them; I will say: 'It is My people,' and they shall say: 'Hashem is my G-d.'" (Zechariah 13:7-9)

After the words of the prophet are fulfilled and two-thirds of the world's population—including all idolaters, those who cause the masses to sin, heretics, and apostates—turn to dust, the time of the final clarification will arrive. "And I will bring the third part through the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will try them as gold is tried." Even among those who remain, a difficult clarification will take place; these are the processes occurring now. We see a person who appears outwardly as a servant of Hashem, but in reality, he is completely distant in his inner essence, and these are, in fact, those who dispute the leader of the generation, the Tzaddik Rav Eliezer Berland shlit"a.

One asks the great Torah sages who know Rav Berland shlit"a, such tzaddikim as the Kabbalist Rav Basri shlit"a, the Gaon Rav David Abuhatzeira shlit"a, Rav Amos Gueta shlit"a from Netanya, Rav Dov Kook shlit"a from Tiberias, Rav Bedani, and many others. They all say with one voice that Rav Berland shlit"a is a tzaddik, an angel of Hashem of Hosts who exists in the supernal and lower realms, shifting systems and acting for the sake of Hashem and His Mashiach. After all this, people err and are led astray by the media, which is fed by fake Haredim and members of the Erev Rav who feed it lies. What is happening to people? All the great sages of Israel speak in praise of Rav Berland shlit"a, and you believe these lies?!

This is the way of the people of truth, led by Rav Berland shlit"a, whom everyone fights against and disparages, especially in this time of the End of Days. Even if a few rabbis with personal interests have jumped on this lie, it is forbidden to listen to this falsehood. Rebbe Nachman has already revealed to us that it is impossible to understand the conduct of the true tzaddikim; they are likened to the Creator, and Hashem, may He be blessed, is surely impossible to comprehend.

Look at the astounding students who have emerged from Rav Berland shlit"a: Is Rav Shalom Arush shlit"a nothing in your eyes? Rav Ofer Erez, Rav Shmuel Stern, Rav Moshe Tzanani, Rav Michael Gol, Rav Meir Malka, Rav Avraham Chananya, Rav Moshe Gershnovitz, Rav Yosef Gal, Rav Dov Rubinstein, Rav Meir Shlomo, Rav Merav, Rav Moshe Shaul, Rav Emanuel Weiss, and many other good and great individuals, both those known and those hidden from the public eye—friends, a clarification is taking place here. It is a clarification, and one must be blind not to see it: Are you going with the wise, the rabbis of truth, with holiness—after all, the holy Steipler was a study partner of Rav Berland shlit"a—or are you going with the media and all the Erev Rav?!

When Mashiach ben David comes, it will be very easy for him. Anyone who spoke and acted against Rav Berland shlit"a, anyone who spread videos against him or spread lies against him, will certainly be on the side of the shell (kelipah) that is separated from the fruit. After all, there is a matter here of severe lashon hara (evil speech) against a tzaddik who is held to be righteous. Furthermore, it is clear that there is no truth in the poison spread by the persecutors, the haters of holiness.
