At the same time, he reveals the frightening parallel: the forces of evil also awaken in times of geulah and gather around Yerushalayim.\nThis is a shiur about the hidden spiritual front of war, the mystery of Jewish strength, the danger of kochi ve’otzem yadi, and the living awareness that Israel never goes to battle alone.\n----------\nFor more Shuirim and Music from Rav Shlomo Katz, visit: https://ravshlomokatz.com\nJoin Rav Shlomo Katz's WhatsApp Community: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KHKOhhPaeHx5Kb74WL9L9a?mode=ems_copy_t\nCHAPTERS\n00:00 Opening Donation and Prayer for the Sick\n01:39 Forgetting the Ribono Shel Olam Leads to War\n03:14 Midrash: Eliyahu Calls on the Patriarchs and Prophets\n07:12 Partnership Between Heavenly Tzaddikim and Earthly Fighters\n10:49 The Flip Side: Evil Forces Awaken Against Israel\n13:29 Zohar Insight: Resurrection of Oppressive Kings\n16:10 The Symbolic 313 Number Among Enemies\n18:06 Bnei Yishmael Mobilized Against Jerusalem\n23:08 Souls of Tzaddikim Empowering Our Soldiers\n29:36 Unit Oversubscription and Volunteer Efforts\n31:23 Strength Lost When Forgetting Hashem\n32:40 October 7th Aftermath and Military Readiness\n33:51 Parallels Between Yom Kippur War and Current Conflict\n35:25 Living Amid Tzaddikim for the Wider Community","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/A3P9O2jywzkeEJx00yQRvvqXa7eGstzayvsittORVjA/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9hNTAy/MzFlNGIwYjc3ZmE5/OTQ3NTQ3NmQwZGFl/NjRlZC5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
