That's Right. I Take Exception With The Ramba"m

Doreen has run down in nasty terms several times on this forum (www.safed.co.il) the Holy Rambam - "from Moses to Moses there was none like Moses!".

But does she adhere to Rambam's 13 Principles of Faith?

As a "Neo-Essene Feminist" which of the following 13 would she dare to alter,delete or amend, where Angels fear to tread? If none, then she has no right to breathe a word against the Rambam!

1 Belief in the existence of the Creator, be He Blessed, who is perfect in every manner of existence and is the Primary Cause of all that exists.
2 The belief in G-d's absolute and unparalleled unity.
3 The belief in G-d's noncorporeality, nor that He will be affected by any physical occurrences, such as movement, or rest, or dwelling.
4 The belief in G-d's eternity.
5The imperative to worship Him exclusively and no foreign false gods.
6The belief that G-d communicates with man through prophecy.
7The belief that the prophecy of Moses our teacher has priority.
8The belief in the divine origin of the Torah.
9The belief in the immutability of the Torah.
10The belief in divine omniscience and providence.
11The belief in divine reward and retribution.
12The belief in the arrival of the Messiah and the messianic era.
13The belief in the resurrection of the dead.

This one is the difference:

12 The belief in the arrival of the Messiah and the messianic era.

משיח = 358 = נחש = ספר הגי = את ספר התורה = 1357 = 358

יבוא = 19 = חוה = גוי = הוגה = עולם חדש = 1018 = 19

זמן = מקראות = 747

In other words, if one reads the Torah properly it is the Messianic Era now. To tell people to wait does not make sense because so long as one doesn't read the Torah properly that person is locked in time and time will not end.

By not teaching their students to learn Torah properly the Pharisees and the Rabbis after them locked themselves and their students in time.

To tell them to continue learning Torah in a distorted manner and to wait for Mashi'ach to arrive to straighten things out is as ridiculous as it is cruel.

I have already also demonstrated how every world is עולם הבא because עולם הבא is a חילוף for עולם+ח or ע + חולם. Since every word עולם has an ע and a חולם in it, every world is עולם הבא.

This is, BTW, in keeping with what Rabbi Yitzhchak of Acco wrote about עולם הבא. He said that עולם הבא should be understood as 'the World That Is Coming (Continuously)', not the world that will come. I am also demonstrating that that, and more, is true using the חילופים. Check what I've already written.

Do you ask the same questions because you do not understand? Will not understand? Cannot understand? Or just need attention?
