Darkness In Eretz Yisrael Now [#15686]

October 9, 2021

QUESTION:

The Rav said [last year at the onset of corona] that we are in the middle of a “plague of darkness.” Is there a way to know when this epidemic [corona] will be over? Also, what comes after the stage of “darkness”? What can we expect soon? And, with regards to the vaccine, many people have died from taking the vaccine. The government pressured us and forced us into it. They contradicted the facts and ignored simple methods of medication to help for the virus. The Jewish people have been hit hard from all this. What can we do??

ANSWER:

Await for the arrival of Mashiach every day! We do not know how long this darkness will last, but the 50th gate within the 50th gate [of tumah/impurity, or moral depravity] is becoming revealed in this time period, and if chas v’shalom Mashiach doesn’t come now, then chas v’shalom, chas v’shalom, this situation can cause most Jews to fall down very, very, very much. May Hashem protect us. Amen and may this be His will. For without the revelation of Hashem’s compassion now, the period of darkness now can cause most Torah observant Jews to fall. May Hashem have mercy and save the remainder, now, in His rachamim.
