"It ain't the end of the world" Rabbi Shaul Praver

Rabbi Shaul Marshall Praver is absolutely correct....... this is "NOT THE END OF THE WORLD!"

Torah Reading chanted in Ashkenazi style, Parshat Sh'lach according to the Triennial System for 5780/2020, Sefer Ba'midbar, Numbers 13-14:7. Some short anecdotal reflection and connecting along the way as well. I hope some of the folks who are closed in and unable to attend shul at this time, can at least feel some connection to the Kriyat Hatorah through this communal offering. Shabbat Shalom

I have a significant lump in my throat and tears in my eyes as I listen to Rabbi Shaul Praver..... could this mean that I might have had a Jewish past life?

I think that Rabbi Shaul Praver's assertion that this is NOT the end of the world fits perfectly with what former Atheist Howard Storm was shown about what life on earth would be like by the year 2185, (two centures from his 1985 near death experience)!

We could do too much damage to the planet. And by the planet, they meant all of God's creation. Not just the people, but the animals, the trees, the birds, the insects, everything.

They explained to me that their concern was for all the people of the world. They weren't interested in one group getting ahead of other groups. They want every person to consider every other person greater than their own flesh. They want everyone to love everyone else, completely; more, even, than they love themselves. If someone, someplace else in the world hurts, than we should hurt we should feel their pain. And we should help them. Our planet has evolved to the point, for the first time in our history, that we have the power to do that. We are globally linked. And we could become one people.

The people that they gave the privilege of leading the world into a better age, blew it. That was us, in the United States.

When I spoke with them about the future, and this might sound like a cop-out on my part, they made clear to me that we have free will.

If we change the way we are, then we can change the future which they showed me. They showed me a view of the future, at the time of my experience, based upon how we in the United States were behaving at that time. It was a future in which a massive worldwide depression would occur. If we were to change our behavior, however, then the future would be different.

Asking them how it would be possible to change the course of many people, I observed that it was difficult, if not impossible, to change anything on Earth. I expressed the opinion that it was a hopeless task to try.

My friends explained, quite clearly, that all it takes to make a change was one person. One person, trying, and then because of that, another person changing for the better. They said that the only way to change the world was to begin with one person. One will become two, which will become three, and so on. That's the only way to affect a major change.

I inquired as to where the world would be going in an optimistic future one where some of the changes they desired were to take place.

The image of the future that they gave me then, and it was their image, not one that I created, surprised me. My image had previously been sort of like Star Wars, where everything was space age, plastics, and technology.

The future that they showed me was almost no technology at all. What everybody, absolutely everybody, in this euphoric future spent most of their time doing was raising children. The chief concern of people was children, and everybody considered children to be the most precious commodity in the world." (Howard Storm, My Descent Into Death).

That last paragraph sure reminds me of:

"Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD:
And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse." (Malachi 4:4-6)
