The Real Peace Plan

Pinchas the son of Elazar the son of Aharon the Kohen has turned My wrath away from the children of Israel, in that he was very zealous for My sake among them, so that I consumed not the children of Israel in My jealousy. And so I say, behold I give him my covenant of peace. (From this week's Torah portion, Pinchas, Exodus 25:11-12)

Surprisingly, Pinchas' zealotry and his uncompromising battle to preserve Israel's separatism and national identity advance peace.

Sometimes, it may seem that a blurred identity and essence will foster peace. The entire "peace process" and the "New Middle East" strategy are based on trashing the concept of borders and identities (Shimon Peres, The New Middle East, page 72 in the Hebrew edition). But the Torah teaches us that just the opposite is true. Only he who knows his own identity is capable of living at peace with himself and his neighbors.

To highlight this point, this week's Torah portion ends with a section on the Sukkot sacrifices, in which all the nations of the world take part. When the Nation of Israel is settled securely in its Land, holy city and Holy Temple and makes G-d King of His world, we enjoy true peace. The world is waiting for us to be ourselves, to fulfill our destiny – for it. Then we and the entire world will merit a genuine, lasting peace.

Shabbat Shalom,

While I as a Christian agree wholeheartedly with the first paragraph, I don't see the second one any where in either Testament...

Seems a quick look out the window would tell anyone that the world is NOT sitting back waiting for Israel to fulfill its destiny...The World is going to help you get there...

Consider this in its context:

“Then it will come about that any who are left of all the nations that went against Jerusalem will go up from year to year to worship the King, the LORD of hosts, and to celebrate the Feast of Booths.” (Zechariah 14:16)
