Religious leader in 2018 “predicts” viral pandemic “will disrupt and turn the entire world upside down” and “must come for the final redemption”
I originally published this article here in September 2021, when it got few readers. Substack won’t allow me to cross-post it, so I’m reposting an updated version of it below. Some religious leaders claim they predicted Covid or that it was foretold in sacred texts.
Some religious leaders claim they “predicted” Covid.
In 2018, Rabbi Yisrael Nissan Rosenbaum of Kiryat Gat, spiritual leader of the Kretchnif Hassidim, wrote that “Hashem [God] will bring to the world something that is like a dream, that [appears] to not exist and which can’t be seen. For example, Hashem can bring down a tiny virus and spread it throughout the world, and this will disrupt and turn the entire world upside down, [as] through a ‘dream,’ in spite of all the technologies in our times, and all the nations of the world will be an aspect of ‘we were like dreaming’ and nothing will help them.”
Rabbi Rosenbaum explained that such a disease must come in order to atone for our sins for the final redemption to come, effectively acting in the place of the pre-Messiah War of Gog and Magog.
Is this really “divine revelation,” as some would have you believe?
Or is it men revealing their plans for the advantage of some to the detriment of others?
Evidence points to the latter.
