But I am reminded that the 'Light of the world' will never be extinguished, no matter how many try to snuff it out, His word will endure forever... Amen

6qrents, you did not read what I said. In aserting Jewish rights to the Land of Israel in general and the Temple Mount in particular IS TALKING ABOUT G-d. It is talking about the very essence of Judaism. i.e.
The Jewish People following the word of G-d by learning Torah and doing Mitzvot in THE LAND of Israel. esp. In the Holy Temple were more then 1/3 of the Mitzvot must be preformed.
1) Zack, God promised a son to Abraham, but he didn't trust God and so he heard what Sarai told him "You see that the LORD has prevented me from bearing children; go in to my slave-girl; it may be that I shall obtain children by her", he tried to fulfill God's promise by himself, he didn't trust God.
2) What happened to Israel it's just the same, God promised the Land, but jewish people didn't trust God's promise, they didn't wait for the promise of the Lord and so, they tried to fulfill the promise by their own efforts.
Abraham did wrong, the jewish people did wrong, neither the former nor the latter believed the Lord.
I apologize for my English so Eng, it's not my mother tongue.
You are selectivly reading the Torah. G-d reterates THE PROMISE many times after Ishmael's birth. NO were does it say that taking Hagar was a sign of a lack of Faith. G-d repeted himself again at the binding od Isaac, to Isaac to Jacob to Moses @ Sinai, to all the Naviim through out Jewish History.
G-d is, was, and will be. As he is unchanging so is convenent.
All of Israel will mourn at the moment that the One Who was thrust through reveals Himself because they will realize that in spite of their rejection of Him, He continued to love them anyway. Then all of Israel shall live in peace for then will they come back into covenant with their Messiah Yeshua.
The Masoretic text of that verse reads, "And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication; and they shall look unto Me because they have thrust him through; and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his first-born."
Nothing was taken out of context. Read chapter 12 in it's entirety and you will see that it is talking about the end times when all of the nations will come against Israel. That is when Messiah will return and rescue Israel. That is when Israel will finally recognize her true Messiah. How about you read your Scriptures, ask God to help you to understand them and then by His grace alone come to the true faith.
Bravo Rabbi. However at the end you stated that the Jewish people are here to bring the light of God into this world. The light of God is Yeshua our Messiah. Soon all Jews will know Him as is stated in the Masoretic text version of Zechariah 12:10.
It is disappointing that he is talking about G-d and you think he is talking about politics.
The Land of Israel, for the people of Israel, according to the Torah of Israel of the word of the G-d Israel.
That is not 'politics" that was "The Plan" the one that G-d told to Abraham during "The Convent between the Parts", the one that G-d told to Moses at the Burning Bush, the one that has been THE REASON for the Jewish people for the last 3,800 years.
But I am reminded that the 'Light of the world' will never be extinguished, no matter how many try to snuff it out, His word will endure forever... Amen

It is sad that arab propaganda has diminished the VERY PERPOSE OF THE UNIVERSE i.e. THE HOLY TEMPLE into a mere matter of "politics'
It is not a Matter of politics it is why we Jews ARE!!

why serve a reliigion which has a book full of errors? when one can serve a religion with a book that is perfect, thus making it divine,

Zack, if you follow regularly the teachings of Rabbi Richman, you'll see that he talks a lot about politics but hardly about God.
Go and check previous videos and you'll see what I mean.
God bless you!
