Spears and Shakespeare

Or the Exodus from Egypt to the Holy Torah

"גל עיני ואביטה נפלאות מתורתך"

"Open Thou mine eyes, that I may behold wondrous things out of Thy law"

Psalms Chapter 119, 18

"I am my beloveds, and my beloved is mine"

Song of Songs Chapter 6, 3

How much is His speech so soft and quiet,

We get along, and our relations are so good,

The Lord (י-ה-ו-ה) has many fine traits -

He even refers nicely to the Angel of Death.

We begin this story with King Saul's spear. The spears are mentioned many times in the Prophet Samuel's book. And there was difficult fighting against the Philistines פלשתים.

Then all the elders of Israel gathered themselves together, and came to Samuel to Ramah, And said to him, Behold, you are old, and your sons walk not in your ways; now make us a king to judge us like all the nations. But the thing displeased Samuel, when they have said; Give us a king to judge us. And Samuel prayed to the Lord. And the Lord said to Samuel, Listen to the voice of the people in all that they say to you; for they have not rejected you, but they have rejected me, that I should not reign over them. Let them have a king but they should continue to go by My ways.

Samuel also said to Saul, The Lord sent me to anoint you to be king over his people, over Israel. And so, Saul became the first king over Israel. And he came from the tribe of Benjamin, a young man, and handsome; and there was not among the people of Israel a more handsome person than he; from his shoulders upwards he was higher than any of the people. And God tested King Saul by giving him a chance, sending him to destroy the Amalekites. But Saul did not fulfill the word of God.

But the spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him. And the Lord said to Samuel, How long will you mourn for Saul, seeing I have rejected him from reigning over Israel. Then God commanded Samuel to anoint to kingship, Jesse of Bethlehem's youngest of eight sons. And he was red haired, with beautiful eyes, and good looking. Then Samuel took the horn of oil, and anointed him in the midst of his brothers; and the spirit of the Lord came upon David from that day forward.

But the spirit of the Lord departed from Saul, and an evil spirit from the Lord troubled him. And Saul's servants said to him, Behold now, an evil spirit from God troubles you. Let our lord now command your servants, who are before you, to seek out a man, who knows how to play on a lyre; and it shall come to pass, when the evil spirit from God is upon you, that he shall play with his hand, and you shall be well. And the choice fell upon David. And David became King Saul's servant. David took a lyre, and played with his hand; so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him.

My Soul Is Dark By: George Gordon, Lord Byron

My soul is dark. Oh! quickly string      The harp I yet can brook to hear;   And let thy gentle fingers fling      Its melting murmurs o'er mine ear.   If in this heart a hope be dear,       That sound shall charm it forth again:      If in these eyes there lurk a tear,   Twill flow, and cease to burn my brain.

But bid the strain be wild and deep,      Nor let thy notes of joy be first:   I tell thee, minstrel, I must weep,      Or else this heavy heart will burst;   For it hath been by sorrow nursed,     And ached in sleepless silence long;     And now tis doomed to know the worst,   And break at once or yield to song.

In the war with the Philistines, victory did not always go to the Israelites. So the Philistines attacked again. And the Philistines gathered together their armies to battle and were gathered together at Socoh, which belongs to Judah, and camped between Socoh and Azekah, in Ephes-Dammim. And Saul and the men of Israel were gathered together, and camped by the valley of Elah. And there came out a champion from the camp of the Philistines, named Goliath, of Gath, whose height was six cubits and a span. And he had greaves of bronze upon his legs, and a javelin of bronze between his shoulders. And Goliath called upon the Israelites to come out and meet him in battle. He did this for 40 days. When Saul and all Israel heard those words of the Philistine, they were dismayed, and greatly afraid.

And the three eldest sons of Jesse went and followed Saul to the battle. But David went and returned from Saul to feed his father's sheep at Beth-Lehem. And Jesse said to David his son, Take now for your brothers an ephah of this parched grain, and these ten loaves, and run to the camp to your brothersand he came and saluted his brothers. And as he talked with them, behold, there came up the champion, the Philistine of Gath, Goliath by name, from the armies of the Philistines, and spoke according to the same words; and David heard them (vituperative words against the Israelites). And David spoke to the men who stood by him, saying, What shall be done to the man who kills this Philistine, and takes away the reproach from Israel? And when the words were heard which David spoke, they repeated them before Saul; and he sent for him.

And Saul said to David, You are not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him; for you are just a youth, and he a man of war from his youth. And David said to Saul, Your slave kept his father's sheep, and there came a lion, and a bear, and took a lamb from the flock; And I went out after him, and struck him, and rescued it from its mouth; and when he arose against me, I caught him by its beard, and struck him, and slew him. And David said, The Lord who saved me from the paw of the lion, and from the paw of the bear, he will save me from the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said to David, Go, and the Lord be with you. And Saul armed David with his armor, and he put a helmet of bronze on his head; also he armed him with a coat of mail. And David girded his sword upon his armor, and he tried in vain to go; he was not used to them. And David said to Saul, I cannot go with these; for I am not used to them. And David took them off. And he took his staff in his hand, and chose five smooth stones from the brook, and put them in a shepherd's bag which he had, and in his knapsack; and his sling was in his hand; and he drew near to the Philistine.

Then said David:but I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel, whom you have defied. ?that David hurried, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine. And David put his hand in his bag, and took from there a stone, and slung it, and struck the Philistine in his forehead, so that the stone sunk his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth. And when the Philistines saw that their champion was dead, they fled.

After that, Saul began to send David to fight in Israel's battles. David's glory as a military commander grew and became stronger, the women came from all the cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet king Saul, with tambourines, with joyful song, and with lutes. And the women answered one another as they danced, and said, Saul has killed his thousands, and David his ten thousands. And Saul was very angry, and the saying displeased him; and he said, They have ascribed to David ten thousands, and to me they have ascribed but thousands; and what can he have more but the kingdom? And Saul regarded David with hostility from that day and onward. And it came to pass on the next day, that the evil spirit from God came upon Saul, and he prophesied in the midst of the house; and David played with his hand, as at other times; and there was a spear in Saul's hand. Saul thought to slay David by spearing him through to the wall but David dodged and the spear hit the wall. David ran and fled that night. The word spear hanit (חנית) derives from the word haniyah, mahaneh (חניה, מחנה) - a camp. And Jonathan spoke good of David to Saul his father,for he loved him as he loved his own soul.

From then on, Saul began to persecute David but to no avail. Once, David stealthily cut off the corner of Saul's cloak and though he could have killed him, he did not do so. The hunt after David ceased with the next war with the Philistines when David was not in the camp. In that battle the Israelites lost and was dispersed by the Philistines. When Saul saw that his enemies were about to reach him, he fell upon his sword. But his soul did not leave him just then, so he asked one of the Amalekites to kill him with his spear. Saul?s three son?s, with Jonathan among them, fell in this battle. How did heroes fall? And David lamented with this lamentation over Saul and over Jonathan his son a bitter lament.

People, do not cast spears upon your close ones, lest trouble come upon you! Weep, sons of Adam, do cry!

The conflict between families Saul and David was a long time one. David was thirty years old when he began to reign. The Creator chose David to strengthen His kingship with the Chosen People. King David'a fine warrior man, and a man of war, and prudent in speech, and a handsome person, and the Lord is with him, praised and glorified his Creator in the Book of Psalms that he himself wrote. And so at the height of his greatness, God put the king to a test and revealed to him his true mate.

But David did not meet the test and did an evil thing and thus turned his face to Satan (to angel Domeh).

The Prophet Nathan gave David a message from God: Why have you despised the commandment of the Lord, to do evil in his sight? You have killed Uriah the Hittite with the sword, and have taken his wife to be your wife. And therefore the sword shall never depart from your house.you shall not die. - (Samuel II 12:1-20): Then David swore to Bathsheba that their son would become king over Israel even though Solomon was David's seventh son and despite the commandment that the first-born was to be preferred. From then onwards, troubles hound David: Bathsheba's first son died; the heir to the throne raped his stepsister. From here developed a series of tragedies in the family. But the hardest things for David was his inability to compose more psalms other than what he had already composed in the Book of Psalms. Despite this, each of the 150 psalms in the Book of Psalms is powerfully strong. These Psalms strengthened the hearts of the Israelites and other peoples and continue to do so.

The Harp the Monarch Minstrel Swept

The harp the monarch minstrel swept, The King of men, the loved of Heaven, Which Music hallow 'd while she wept O'er tones her heart of hearts had given, Redoubled be her tears, its chords are riven! It soften 'd men of iron mould, It gave them virtues not their own; No ear so dull, no soul so cold, That felt not, fired not to the tone, Till David's lyre grew mightier than his throne!

It told the triumphs of our King, It wafted glory to our God; It made our gladden 'd valleys ring, The cedars bow, the mountains nod; Its sound aspired to heaven and there abode! Since then, though heard on earth no more, Devotion and her daughter Love Still bid the bursting spirit soar To sounds that seem as from above, In dreams that day's broad light can not remove.

... For love is strong as death - (Song of Songs 8:6). The above poem is from Byron's collection of poems, "Hebrew Melodies". Byron was persuaded by a Jewish musician, Isaac Nathan, to write words for melodies, which were no doubt the ancient songs of Israel by King David. What is the connection between the Nathan the musician and Nathan the prophet? Are we dealing here with the reincarnation of souls? Byron's second name, from his mother's side, was Gordon. There are also Jewish families named Gordons, apparently from the word legared (לגרד). Let us say "scrape" the family's history (to reveal secrets). Byron's mother, Catheryn Byron knew Hebrew. She loved English as well as Hebrew, asserting that there was a connection between them. She proved this once through the Book of Psalms.

These proofs we will hold for the knowledgeable ones. Beyond that, Byron had many friends who had Jewish roots.

Now, let us look at David's fate by using the factors of numbers. The significance of this will be entirely clarified through the double duty that the letter Samech (ס) has. It is well known that the Book of Psalms has 150 psalms. Why just this number? Let us factor out this number: 150 = 1 *2 * 3 * 5 * 5. In Jewish tradition, each of these numbers has deep meanings attached to them. What is the reason that the number 5 appears twice instead of 5 * 7? The answer: This notes David's many merits! It also signifies the great importance given to the number 5 and the King's letter Heh (ה)!

Now, let us factor out the number 210 =1 * 2 * 3 * 5 * 7 . The number 7 symbolizes the number of the days of Creation and the Sabbath, the seven planets and the seven heavens and so forth. The difference between 150 and 210: 210 - 150 = 60, where 60 is the numerical value of the letter Samech (ס).

For a time David was successful, fate was favorable to him. However, after awhile, trouble came down upon his head. Because, at first the letter Samech (ס) helped him but later it showed him its sinister side. The very name of the fifteenth letter shows its duality. The Gematria of the word Samech (סמך) is 60 (ס) + 40 (מ) + 20 (כ) = 120 = 60 + 60. The conclusion: The letter Samech (ס) has two sides: One side is to support, to prop, while the other side is tied to God's anger, to Satan שטן, סטן (with the Gematria of 119). The polarity of the two sides of the fifteenth letter separates this letter from all the other letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Previous to the letter Samech (ס), is the letter Nun (נ), the fourteenth letter. This, in light of the fact that very often the letter Nun (נ) "falls" off of Hebrew words, as a result, the combining of the letters Nun (נ) and Samech (ס) we get the wonderful word Ness (נס) - miracle, and then the Nun (נ) can carry out its imposed task.

The Pentateuch does not directly name Satan. We find it only in the Holy Writings. Still, it is interesting to see how the Torah describes the High Priest who brings the sin offering on the Day of Atonement: And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the Lord, and the other lot for Azazel. And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the Lord's lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering. But the goat, on which the lot fell to be for Azazel, shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go to Azazel into the wilderness. (Leviticus 16:8-10)

In order to strengthen azez (עזז) him, the Creator El (אל), Heaven forbid, that his strength az (עז), shall not weaken azel (אזל), within His people. Here are revealed two forces: Azzaz עזז + El אל (the Creator who strengthens him) and Azazel, the name of the angel that weakens the strong One's (the Creator) strength within Israel his people. Let us look closely at the Gematria of the word Azazel. 70 (ע) + 7 (ז) + 1 (א) + 7 (ז) + 30 (ל) = 115. If we add the number of letters (5) of the word we get 120. From this we can conclude that we also need Azazel's support! The Gematria of these two words, Samech and Azazel (+5), are one and the same! This makes it quite clear that Satan and Azazel are servants of the Lord!

The number 120 is the factorial of 5. That is 5! = 1*2*3*4*5 = 120. This number is also equal to the number of possible permutations of the letters in the word elokim (אלהים). The word elokim represents the Creator's aspect of might. It is clear that aside from support from elohim, there are also 120 punitive methods. The Creator at times reveals His aspect of might (elohim), and at time He reveals His side of grace (Jehovah ו-ה-ו-ה).

The Creator's aspect of grace (י-ה-ו-ה) formed the Tabernacle in order for the High Priest could make atonement for the sins of the Israelites. Beside the cloth that covered the Tabernacle, there were an additional three types of covers. The first layer was of goatskins; the second layer was of red ram skins and a third layer was of skins of animal named tahash תחש.

In truth, the number 120 is the area covered by eleventh covers of goatskins of the Tabernacles:

4*30 (ells) = 120.

Above the goatskins was a covering of red ram skins.

Above this was an additional covering of tahash' skins. The red ram skins symbolize blood, as it is written, the soul is in the blood (Leviticus 17:11). The name tahash תחש hides the serpent nahash נחש, because the letter of Truth, the Tav (ת) slallows the letter Nun (נ). Here, the letter Tav (ת) does not appear as a prefix alone for the word. Here, the process appears as the tahash swallows the Serpent. Therefore, the Serpent, Nahash נחש, scenting the tahash (תחש) hides, flees away from the tahash- hides, which had already swallowed the first letter, the Nun. The Serpent, Nahash - נחש, felt hash - חש that it would swallow all of it (Nun + Chash -- נ + חש). As it is stated in (Ezekiel 16: 10): I clothed thee also with richly woven work, and shod thee with tahash (not sealskin! וָאֶנְעֲלֵךְ תָּחַשׁ), and I wound fine linen about thy head, and covered thee with silk: We too need tahash skin shoes in order to drive the Serpent away! And the seal does not eat the serpents!

Satan destroys the friendship ידידות between people by dividing them into separate individual נא יחידה. The letter of life - Het (ח) - has this Gematria:

4*2 = 8 (two Dalet's ד), where the letter Dalet (ד) is a symbol of blood דם as well as the symbol of man and woman. The hatred between people, blood for blood - the principle that causes murder and war in our world. Once, the Satan dressed in Serpentskins and convinced Eve to taste of the Tree of Knowledge, of Good and of Evil. Then the holy love, fraternity and friendship, split into 600,000 units as is known to us by the holy books.

Satan as the Serpent, who broke the one Soul into 600,000 pieces, units נא יחידה; flees from a animal called Echidna, a monster, half woman, half serpent, the daughter of Phorcys and Céto, the granddaughter of Earth (Gaea and the Sea (Pontus).

This is, apparently, the Australian insectivorous mammal which

we see in the picture.

Or a it is Tasmanian relative of his.

It is different from the former by its larger size and thicker fur with finer but shorter spines.

The Tachash animal is the Echidna!

Similar to the duckbilled Platypus,

the Echidna broods upon its eggs.

At the same time it is part of the class of mammalia.

Its single egg is stored in its body pouch.

The pouch appears at gestation time.

The Echidna is immune to snake bite and protects himself from bigger animals with his spines.

In the past the Echidna lived in all the hot climates (including Israel) but was annihilated because of their wonderfully tasty fat and flesh. Of course, the Echidna is not one of the kosher animals.

As for now, the Echidna's only natural habitat is in Australia and Tasmania and only survives there.

Both the echidna and the Platypus do not fit into

the Theory of Evolution. Later on, came the true mammals, including the regular hedgehog and the mongoose. Both of these already present a higher level of development, different genes.

However, these two animals did not develop as a result of evolutionary mutations. This agrees with the Kabbalistic approach.

The Indian Mongoose is considered the most vigorous and speedy of the Viverridae Family. This is the famous snake killer in Rudyard Kipling's story of the mongoose Riki Tiki Tavi. Mongooses are not sensitive to snake venom, they are strong and quick to such an extent that they can match a King Cobra.

Let us return to our story. Actually, the rest of the story appears like an article about reincarnation.

On April 26, 1564, a new and wonderful star was born in the skies: In John (Jonathan - יונתן) Shakespeare's family, a son was born, a great bard. His name was William. That (the great Bard) was how he was called in his generation. It is his name to this very day and that is how they will call him in the future. This is also the nickname for King David - "The pleasant singer of Israel". This is the name that was preserved for him from past times until forever more.

John was an independent yeoman's son, a simple farmer named Richard Shakespeare who leased his land from Gentleman Robert Arden. This tract of land was located not far from the town of Stratford on the Avon River (the town's location is on the main road between London and the port). John Shakespeare relocated to Stratford-On-Avon and there opened up a glove business. He became an honored member of the professional guild of glove-makers, a very well to do man. This enabled him to return to his birthplace and wed the youngest daughter of Gentleman R. Arden, who at that time had become impoverished. This marriage produced four daughters and four sons. William was the third child and the first son. Of all the daughters, only one sister, Joan, survived. All the others died during childhood.

John was elected to be chief Alderman (mayor) for a period of four years. He customarily paid a large fine rather than attend the Anglican Church for regular prayers. He sent his son to study at the local school, which was considered to be on a good level. The subjects studied in school were languages, literature, ancient mythology and history. Shakespeare's studies had a significant influence upon his future works.

Upon completing his studies, William at 18 (1582) married and in a short time became the father of three daughters: Susannah [שושנה] in 1583 and twins: Hamnet (Sunflower) and Judith in 1585. What were the Shakespeare family's sources of income? We cannot definitely know this but there were indications that Shakespeare tutored and tried his hand at stage-managing. To this end, he wrote anew plays composed in Latin that he had learnt in his school.

In 1587, he left his family and for a long time disappeared from the sight of historians. It seems that during that period he joined with a wandering band of actors. It appears that during that time Shakespeare began to develop his special style and received his first encouragements. The year Shakespeare came to London is unknown. From that time, he began to compose his wonderful plays and sonnets, to praise love and friendship, decry evil in order that people would not be caught in the snares that Satan - the Accuser, had set. The word sonnet in Hebrew is similar to the word sonet סונט (from the verb lisnot - לסנוט), meaning, to scorn, to mock. And this is the way to mock the hated Satan לסנוט בסטן.

Let us discuss Shakespeare's comedy, "Love's Labor"s Lost". The plot goes like this: The king and his three lords take a vow upon themselves for three years to study wisdom and science, to restrict their sleep, food and drink and to distance themselves from women. Of course, they do not succeed in any of this.

However, from the names of the characters in the play we can find hints to events that happened at the time in France.

The playwright's thoughts are expressed through Biron's mouth (he is one of the lords).

The king's joker has the name Costard - a type of round apple. The fantastic Spaniard's servant name is Moth. Both of them are great jesters. The fantastic Spaniard is similar to Don Quixote, while his servant, Moth, reminds us of Sancho Panza (and like a moth floating in the air, they also threw Sancho into the air as a punishment).

The true Birons, the historic ones, had a slogan, "Trust Biron" ("Grede Biron" in French). The Byrons in England had the same slogan since they were related to the Marquis de Biron. This family came from Normandy together with William the Conqueror. The poet, Lord George Gordon Byron was their descendent. Byron used to call himself a Nephil (an angel that "fell" נפל - nafal) because of the many sins he committed.

Now, let us find the Costard the Jester's line in the play (Act V, Scene 1). In this line there are 27 letters, in them is a hint about the fantastic Spaniard's height. 27 = 3*3*3 -- this the perfect balance as well as the number of letters in the Hebrew Alphabet (22 letters and 5 final ones). In Costard's line, which appears at first to be completely meaningless, a secret is hidden. All the letters of the "word" (a string of 27 letters) there are parallel Hebrew letters and one can decode the "word" if we write it in Hebrew. Let us reveal the secret in the "word". First of all, we will build a table. Because we lack space, we will divide the table into two parts.

Below is a table that represents the 27 letters of the "word" from Costard's line (Act V, Scene 1). In the table's first row is the ordinal number of each letter. In the second row, the English letter. In the third row, the parallel Hebrew letters. In the fourth row, the numerical values of the Hebrew letter and the Gematria of the "word" (a sum of the numerical value of all the letters). In the fifth row, the numerical value of the separated letters. In the sixth row, the separated letters themselves.

14	13	12	11	10	9	8	7	6	5	4	3	2	1
i	l	i	v	a	c	i	f	i	r	o	n	o	h

		10		1		10		10		6	50	6
		י		א		י		י		ו	נ	ו

End of the table with the 27-letter long coded word

	27	26	25	24	23	22	21	20	19	18	17	16	15

706	60	6	2	10	9	1	9	10	50	10	4	6	9
-93
613

The Gematria of the "word" is: (10+30+10+2+1+100+10+80+10+200+6+50+6+5 ) + (60+6+2+10+9+1+9+10+50+10+4+6+9) = 706

From these numbers one can construct the number 613 in only one manner alone - where this number is the Creator's 613 commandments.

Before you are seven numbers and letters that are not included within the number 613:

10	1	10	10	6	50	6
י	א	י	י	ו	נ	ו

Now, we will arrange the letters in the correct order. The coded word his the following word:

6

1

3

ו

י

ו

י

י

נ

א

I am Jehovah י ו (י-ה-ו-ה)

Jehovah י ו (י-ה-ו-ה) is 613 (commandments)

The letter Yod (י) is the symbol for wisdom, which the Holy One granted to all created by "His

hand" yado (ידו). The Gematria of yado (ידו) is 20, this Gematria of the letter Caf (כ) which is in apposition to the commandment;

Therefore choose life (ובחרת בחיים).

The Gematria of the letter Vav (ו) is 6, where its Hebrew shesh (שש) is composed of the two fiery letters attached together. Shesh (שש) is he and she who create the new generation. Therefore, the letter Vav (ו) represents the quantification of life. In God's name, there are two letters, Yod and Vav (י"ו). These two letters each head a syllable, Jeho-Vah (י-ה-ו-ה) of God"s explicit name Jehovah (the Tetragrammaton י-ה-ו-ה). The explicit name symbolizes the creation of man's wise life (ו-ה) through His wisdom and insight.

Take a look, a miracle - ness has occurred again. But now with the letter Vav (ו): Transposing to English, the letter Vav (ו) doubles itself into two letters - "O" and "U". Among the 27 English letters inside the "word", there are only 14 different letters. A, C, D, F, I, L, N, O, P, R, S, T, U, V. The conclusion is that in Hebrew we do not have 14 letters but only 13.

Concerning David's fate, the miracle - ness, was nearly ruined because the Nun (נ) fell out, thereby leading to the sinister side of the Samech (ס) to be revealed. Here we have the opposite situation, a wonderful miracle - nes happened when the Vav (ן) fell out. The number 13 is the Gematria for the words ahavah (אהבה) and ehad (אחד) [see above]. Shakespeare was a person who glorified the oneness of Love.

Let us imagine that we are entering a casino and approach a unique Roulette table. On the winning row are laid out all the 27 letters of the Hebrew alphabet (22 base letters and 5 final letters) - these are set instead of the 27 letters of the coded "word". The author is gambling on the number 13 from 27 of these letters in this special dispersion. The author also coded into the "word" through these chosen 13 letters of the Hebrew Alphabet his belief that one day all the peoples of the world will love each other in accordance with the commandment, love your neighbor as yourself.

The odds for winning a dispersion of the 27 letters of the alphabet in the 13 places is very low and is equal to 1*10^-17. That is to say - to the right of the decimal point there will be 16 zeros before coming to the number 1. But we do want to win the above array (see the third line in the first part of the above table that was divided in two.

We bet twice on the letter Aleph (א) ~ 1; twice on the letter Bet (ב) ~ 2; once on the letter Dalet (ד) ~ 4; once on the letter Heh (ה) ~ 5; four times on the letter Vav (ו) ~ 6; three times on the letter Tet (ט) ~ 9; seven (!) on the letter Yod (י) ~ 10; once on the letter Samech (ס) ~ 60; once on the letter Peh (פ) or final Peh (ף) ~ 80; once on the letter Kuf (ק) ~ 100; and once on the letter Resh (ר) ~ 200. This adds an additional 10 zeros after the decimal point.

In this case, the odd of winning goes down to ²⁷⁻10! A draw of the letters with a bet on "Only One Love" - Ahavah Ahat veYehidah. It appears that the odds for winning are quite slim. But we should bear in mind that Plank's constant is about the same magnitude, 6.6*10^-27 (erg/sec). In our universe, the Plank constant is a quantum of energy. The whole universe is built upon it. Therefore, to be very clear, the gamble on a single unifying love is not as futile as we at first thought. The Creator expects such a love from us!

Because of such a minuscule chance in our case, it is possible to assume that this is the only method to decode the "word". A result of this, Shakespeare chose the 13 letters of the Hebrew alphabet, which have parallel letters in English. Therefore, in the coded "word" there are 27 letters, not 22 (so that in the draw the final letters of Nun and Peh can also participate).

Another amazing thing is the arrangement of the letters connected with numbers 1, 17, 27. They also appear in our forefather Abraham's history. From the time that Abraham reached the age of 58 and entered the first stage of mystical knowledge until he received (at 75) the approval to enter the Land of Israel, 17 years passed. After 10 years (at 85), the Covenant of the Pieces was made between the Creator and Abraham.

Another 14 years passed (at 99), and he opened the 50 Gate of Wisdom, and Abraham entered the Palace of the King of kings and Abraham was granted a kiss on his forehead and the addition of a Heh (ה) to his name in order that he could bear his son because the key to the 50 Gates of Wisdom is to be found in the fourteenth letter of the Hebrew alphabet - the letter Nun (נ) with the numerical value of 50. I wrote an article on this topic "The Abraham's two births".

Do you like this?

In the play, there are many poems, including 27 sonnets (including those with a small style change). In consideration of these small deviations, one can say that the number of letters in the coded "word" and the number of sonnets in the play is the same number (27)

3*3*3 = 27 - this number has a triple stability!

These are Biron's words which he uses to describe his love for divine Rosalia (the letters Resh Zayin [רז] secret):

My eyes are then no eyes, nor I Biron: O, but for my love, day would turn to night! Of all complexions the cull'd sovereignty Do meet, as at a fair, in her fair cheek, Where several worthies make one dignity, Where nothing wants that want itself doth seek. Lend me the flourish of all gentle tongues,--

Fie, painted rhetoric! O, she needs it not: To things of sale a seller's praise belongs, She passes praise; then praise too short doth blot. A wither'd hermit, five-score winters worn, Might shake off fifty, looking in her eye: Beauty doth varnish age, as if new-born, And gives the crutch the cradle's infancy:

Is ebony like her? O wood divine!
A wife of such wood were felicity.
O, who can give an oath? where is a book?
That I may swear beauty doth beauty lack,
If that she learn not of her eye to look:
No face is fair that is not full so black?

The Creator created, in accordance with his plan, 27 letters of the Hebrew alphabet. Afterwards He created his people, Israel (further on we shall show how). Is it possible that the sonnet's author is praising the Holy One's bride - the Chosen People? Pay attention to the dark beauty, the "swarthy one". Is she the same one that King Solomon praised in his Song of Songs, the same woman that was similar to Bathsheba, Solomon's mother, King David's wife? Therefore, both King David and Bathsheba in same measure were the embodiment of the Kingdom of Israel. The Creator is light and our world - darkness.

Shakespeare's next play is "The Merchant of Venice". The play contains hints to the famous trial of the court physician, Rodrigo Lopez, who was accused of attempting to poison Queen Elizabeth and was executed in 1594. This play is listed as one of Shakespeare?s comedies. Does it contain a secret? In this comedy, the playwright praises love and fellowship and denounces evil. Opposite Antonio, the unfortunate merchantman is Shylock, a rich Jew who lends with interest. Shy is translated both as bashful and in slang - attempt. Lock is also to bolt. Fate brings Antonio to losses and has nobody from whom he could borrow money in order to pay his debt to the Jew.

This Jew is wise and thoughtful, who continues to love his dead wife. He has a concept of honor in general and understanding of Jewish self-respect in particular. The entire conflict comes about because of the persecution of the Jews, degradations and indignities that they are forced to suffer because of the permanent inequality. When Shylock gives money to Antonio, he receives from him a document according to which (should he not be able to repay the money) he is to give the usurer a portion of his flesh.

The beautiful Portia, his friend's mistress, dresses up in the clothing of a lawyer in order to defend Antonio in court. Of course, she wins the case through the claim that the flesh is to be sold without a drop of blood (which the Christians did not at all keep) and of course, one cannot spill Christian blood. But Shylock also did not intend to eat Antonio's flesh but only wished to revenge himself upon the fervent anti-Semite. From here, one thing is quite clear; the Christians cannot understand why the Jews do not eat such a delicacy as blood. For instance, if it was added to Matzah it would then be quite tasty! This is also the external reason for the Christian blood libels against the Jews. Is this what Shakespeare is hinting at in his play?

At the end of the play, the beautiful Portia speaks about three ships (the Trinity) that came to replace the Four (the Tetragrammaton - Jehovah - י-ה-ו-ה) because the first one of them sank. The struggle between Christianity and Judaism ends in a 'Christian victory'. That is He (י-ה-ו-ה) was alive (הוה) and here the first letter (Yod - י) of the Name, symbolizing the future, has fallen away. It was but is now gone.

The subject of illegally seizing authority takes up a large portion of Shakespeare's works.

Now let us go on to Shakespeare's next play, "Romeo and Juliet". The same subjects - love, fellowship and evil. The play starts and ends with a sonnet. The last sonnet is composed of words by Juliet's father (four lines), words by Romeo's father (4 lines) and the Doge's (a noble of old Venice - six lines) The entire place has 12 sonnets. 12 = 1*12. The Lord creates his people Israel. 1 - is He, the Holy One. 12 - is the number of Israel's tribes.

6

Now let us open the collection of Shakespeare's wonderful sonnets. Here too we find the same subjects: A wonderful companion, the dark beauty (whom we read about in "Love's Labor's Lost") and the jubilant Evil (sonnet 66).

Tired with all these, from these would I be gone,
Save that, to die, I leave my love alone.

There are a total of 154 sonnets. The number 154 cn be factored in the following manner:

154 = 1*2*7*11

In the above factoring, I find a hint to Joseph's and Pharaoh's dreams, a hint concerning the Egyptian exile of Israel. I will specfy: One dream by Joseph: 1 - that is Joseph before whom are bowing down 11 stars (his brothers). The second - Pharaoh's two dreams that contain the number 7. The seven cows who are sleek and fat and then the 7 cows who are gaunt and thin. And in the second dream, the 7 plump and full ears and then the 7 seven thin ears.

7

Let us open Shakespeare's next last play "Winter's Tale". This tale has a good ending. Here too we can find the topics of exile and return. The play contains 12 sonnets. 12 = 1*12. As you remember, before his people went a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light. 1 is the Pilllar. And 12 - the number of the tribes of Israel. Moses takes his people out of the Egyptian Exile and brings them to the mountain Sinai (Hatred).

Moses got up the Hatred and received from Him the Torah. - The Book helps us to change our want to receive to our want to give, being responsible for one another.

Let us open the collection of poems, "The Passionate Pilgrim". Of the 15 poems in the collection, there are 5 new sonnets. The number 5 = 1*5, where 1 is intended to G-d, and 5 are the five Books of the Torah, the Pentateuch.

Let us now count the total number of Sonnets that Shakespeare wrote (including those that are not written entirely in the format of a sonnet).

5+12+154+12+27 = 210. But King David wrote 150 Psalms. Above, we discussed this number, which came about by the difference in these numbers. The difference, which symbolizes the support on the one hand by the Creator and His on the other hand. Shakespeare fulfilled all that was placed upon him: 1*2*3*5*7 = 210! Here, Shakespeare shows us the Creator's intentions and the history of the Creation: In the beginning God created the Hebrew letters (27). Afterwards, his people Israel (12). After that, he sent them into the Egyptian Exile (154). In the end, He returned them from the Exile (12) to the Holy Torah (5). It seems that Shakespeare, knowingly or unknowingly, proceeded in the direction of the number 210!

8

Lastly, we shall open his last play, "The Tempest". Here too, the plot is in the spirit of a tale: On a certain island lives a banished magician named Prospero with his daughter Miranda. Prosperus' title was taken from him and then banished from Milan. In the city they spoke the holy Tongue that he himself had created (milah - "word" is derived from Milan). Then he, cast (paras - Pros) a pur - a lot, and discovered a way to return to his home with a tempest's help. But the LORD hurled a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken. - Jonah 1: 4: In accordance with his plan, all his enemies will regret their evil deeds. And that is what actually happens.

His chief enemy, the king of Naples (similar to the Hebrew word naeh, the meaning is Rome), does repent while his son falls in love with Prospero's beautiful daughter Miranda. The name Miranda is similar to the Hebrew word mor - myrrh, a pleasant scent. It is written, Until the day cools, and the shadows flee away, I will get me to the mountain of myrrh, and to the hill of frankincense. - Song of Songs (4:6):

I consider that Shakespeare means the character of Prospero that he is the God of Israel exiled from Zion and Miranda of the pleasant scent that is surely His Chosen People.

Shakespeare was 37 years old when wrote his poem "The Phoenix and Turtle" with threnos. His hope has failed, that his creations can expel evil of the world. Since then he began to think of end of his way.

The threnos

Beauty, truth, and rarity, Grace in all simplicity, Here enclos'd in cinders lie. Death is now the phœnix' nest; And the turtle's loyal breast To eternity doth rest, Leaving no posterity: 'Twas not their infirmity, It was married chastity.

Truth may seem, but cannot be; Beauty brag, but 'tis not she; Truth and beauty buried be. To this urn let those repair That are either true or fair; For these dead birds sigh a prayer

Some researchers of creativity of Shakespeare believe that the Phoenix and Turtle-dove were

writing under Shakespeare's pseudonym; they have died simultaneously.

It is not important the poet by a nickname the Phoenix whether lived or no.

It is important, that his song entered into the plan of the Creator!

The word turtle is a name a bird (tor - תור in Hebrew), comes from the Hebrew word

"to look out" (latur לתור).

Here, for us, we suggest to observe, to look at the truth.

Who is this Turtle that leaved together with him in eternity?

I believe it leaved a secret of his origin, and a secret of the "twenty seven letters"' word.

But the Phoenix and the Turtledove will be resurrected!

Why is it that we know so little about the author? There are many opinions about this. One of them is that Shakespeare himself did not write his brilliant creations but somebody else did. Perhaps this where it was Shakespeare's intention to hide his Jewish roots.

Did Shakespeare sign documents, not with his name but with a small cross?

If that is so, then surely here he has hidden his intention to disseminate his universal sermon

to the four corners of the world, to all the inhabitants on the globe.

The Shakespeare surname also has a secret. Listen to this story:

There was once a Jew by the name Napach נפח , Smith in English, who fled from Spain to England. An angel appeared to Napach and said to him, "Change your religion to Christianity for you will bear a descendent who shall raise my Glory amongst all the nations of the world". This Napach was knowledgeable in the occult.

It should be clarified that in Hebrew, the letter Peh (פ) means mouth (the speech organ) of the future Shakespeare. The letters Nun (נ) and Het (ח) that stand at the ends of the name Napach (נפח),

should we change their order we get the abridgement kitsurim (ח"נ), which are the initials of Chochma Nistereth (חכמה נסתרת), the Kabbalah. So the speech of the future Shakespeare will be the speech of the Kabbalah. And Kabbalah tells about Love and Friendship.

So what surname did Napach take for himself? He divided his [Hebrew] surname into two parts: Nap + Het (נפ + ח). The letter het (ח) + the word nofefeth (נופפת) and we get, "the spear hanith חנית that is shaking נופפת". In English, from the spear that is shaking, we get, in short, Shake-Spear. He shook his spear and aim it at the world's evil.

The German poet, Goethe, was also a great-grandson of napach. Goethe was born 185 years after Shakespeare's death. He knew Hebrew. By Goethe's own words, his grandfather already knew that his grandson would rise to greatness.

The name William can be written in the Holy Tongue in the following manner: וִלְעַם, that is - בלְע עַם. You probably well-remember Balaam from the Bible, who had prophetic abilities. He intended to curse the people of Israel but despite his desire, he was forced to bless them. Remember Balaam's ass who suddenly began to speak. Balaam rode his ass in order to come and curse the Chosen People that were so hated by him.

William Shakespeare's full name can be written thus: Sheketz (שקץ - pronounced sheigetz in Yiddish - a young non-Jew). We can exchange the Zadi (צ) for the Samech (ס) according to the well-known principle used by the sages. This we add Pur (פור) and so get: Young non-Jew! Call off the Pur, the lot, and bless my People just as Balaam did! Should you see a picture of Shakespeare you can easily discern the face of an enthusiastic Jew.

King David aged in a short time and only lived 70 years. The number 70 ~ Ayin (ע) appears many times in the Torah. This eye represents the Creator's happiness because of the creation of Mankind. The number is 70 = 7*10. The number 7, = 6 + 1, refers to the 7 lower tahtonim (ז"ת = 7) as it is in apposition to the second syllable of the Tetragrammaton - ו-ה: The Lesser Countenance ז״א contains six parts + Majesty מלכות - one. (See the picture given above). The factor 10 shows that there are the inner properties on each step.

But the three numbers 0 + 1 + 2 = 3 stand in apposition to the second syllable (י-ה) of the Tetragrammaton Jehovah (י-ה-ו-ה) where the 0 is the Crown, 1 is Wisdom and 2 is Insight (this triplet is called the gar - ג"ר - the First Three). 3 + 7 = 10 (see the explanation given above).

Shakespeare lived even less than King David only 52 Years. 52 = 1*2*2*13. The number 1 is the Creator. 2*2 = 4. These are the four corners of the Earth. This is a call to mankind from all over the world to aspire to love because the number 13 symbolizes Love and Unity.

12

Next year we shall celebrate 440 years of William Shakespeare's birthday - 8 Jubilees (a Jubilee = 50 years) and an additional 40 years.

The number 50 is a holy number for the Jewish people and represents the 50 (נ) gates of Insight. 50 = 1*5 (ה) * 10 (י). The 1 is the Wisdom of the higher souls who receive the Light from the Source. The numerals 0 and 5 - theses represent to Torah. 10 - represents Wisdom.

The number 40 is = 1*4 (ד) * 10 (י). The letter Mem (מ) is the symbol of the integration between water that give life and blood Dam (דם). The reason for this is that the letters Dalet (ד), Mem (מ) and Tav (ת) - all three of which belong to the fourth column of the letter table (refer to the first table in this article). The final Mem (ם) is constructed (and possible to write it that way) by two Dalet's (ד) - the first regularly and the second one upside down creating an enclosed space (similar to a womb) in which the foetus is located. Thus teaches the Kabbalah.

We hope that in 2004 will return honor to our people to which we have awaited for such a long time. In another 10 years, in the year 2014, there will be 9 Jubilees. The numeral 9 symbolizes the Good (טוב) - that we will be good - as well as draft (טיוטה) of our lives and the Star of David with its 6 points (3+3) since the logarithm of the numeral 3 is the number itself. Log3 + Log3 ~ 3 + 3 ~ ג + ג.

Let us now write down anew the history of world.

13

Any thing has 2 sides. Even the word wonder Pele (פלא) has the other side - Aleph (אלף). Aleph - this is the name of the first letter of the Hebrew alphabet. For He (the Holy One) works wonders.

Even the knowledge of the Kabbalah (ח"ן) has an opposite side. If we change the abridgement (ח"ן) backwards we get the word Noah (נח) - from the Hebrew for rest. This is also the name of the righteous Noah (נֹחַ). As Lemech his father said: This same shall comfort us concerning our work.

Nations of the world! I bring you today the olive leaf from the righteous Noah for my name is Haim (life) and my family name is Goluv, which means dove (יונה). As it is written (Isaiah 56:7-8): for my house shall be called a house of prayer for all peoples. The Lord God who gathers the outcasts of Israel says, yet will I gather others to him, beside those who are already gathered.

Nations of the world! Do not hinder the ingathering of the exiles of the people of Israel into the Land of Israel. Do not interfere but help! Then peace and quiet shall come upon the world.

And let us say, Amen.

Epilogue

Woe to those souls who do not know how to cry but such were the souls of King David and Shakespeare.

The word Philistines comes from the Hebrew liflosh - to invade. Also, there is a type of sword called palash (פָּלַשׁ). As it is written, (Amos 9:7): Did I not bring Israel out of the land of Egypt? And the Philistines from Caphtor?

What is the meaning of the word Caphtor כפתור? Caphtor is constructed from two words which have many meanings: Caphah (כפה) and tor (תור). The word kaphah (כפה) comes from the Hebrew kefiyah (כפיה), to force. The word tor (תור) comes from the Hebrew to mean row, order as well as time. We are not speaking of the button on an article of clothing, but force and wars.

Let us throw away the flags that keep us apart. Here is the flag for all the nations of the world:

The borders of this flag (the blue frame) are constructed from 10 enclosed segments of straight lines where 4 of them are vertical and 6 are horizontal. 4 + 6 = 10 (י) symbolizes the Creator's right hand and is a symbol of Israel as well as the minor Gematria of Israel - 10 (see explanation above).

The 9 stars construct the form of the Land of Israel (in the right square). They also construct something like a loudspeaker: Shema Yisrael! Hear O Israel!

The numeral 9 = 3*3. If we combine the 3 with another 3 = 3 + 3 = 6. Then we have the number of points on the 2 traingles that form the Star of David.

The 18 asterisks construct The Temple: 7 + 5 + 3 + 2 + 1 = 18 = 2*9.

The 18 asterisks construct the floating Star of David: 1 + 2 + 5 + 2 + 5 + 2 + 1 = 18 = 2*9.

The all asterisks construct the total of five Stars of David.

But the numeral 5 is a symbol of His Torah.

There are the total asterisks: 5*9 = 45, the Gematria of the word Adam (אדם). A man has to be like (אדמה) his Creator in his characteristics of love and giving so that it should be good for all peoples!

With Love,
Haim Golub

Summer 2003***

Addenda from other years:

1. To strengthen the assertion that the year 2004 is important: The great Cabbalist of our time, Rabbi Judah Aslag, was born exactly 120 years before 2004 if we examine tha fact that he was born on October 6, 1884. This date according to the Jewish calendar belongs to Tishrei of the following year (תרמ״ה). The word samach, from the Hebrew to support, has a Gematria of 120. Your humble servant reached the age of 60 during 2004. Now, 60 is the numerical value of samech (ס). Since the word semech (סֶמֶך) means to support, its meaning is support for man's resolve to connect with his Creator. The other side of the word is satan (סטן), the prosecutor and hater. So, there will be those who grab onto the side of support - the side of the Creator. And there are those who will stand to the side of darkness, at the side of the hater.

2. I was born on the 22^nd (כ"ב) of Cheshvan (חשון), 08. 11.1944. The Gematria of the word Cheshvan (חשון) is 364. If we add all its component numerals we get the number 13! The minor Gematria of Cheshvan (חשון) is as follows: Het (ח) gives 8 + Shin (ש) gives 3 + Vav (ו) gives 6 + the Nun (נ) gives 5. The minor Gematria of Cheshvan (חשון) is the number 22. We then get the word for love (Ahavah אהבה) and the 22 Hebrew letters! I was born in this atmosphere.

3. Behind the name Haim (חיים ) there is also a secret hiding. The Gematria of Haim (חיים) is 68 (ח ~ 8 + י ~ 10 + י ~ 10 + מ ~ 40 = 68). It is written is Isaiah (40:26): Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who has created these things (מִי-בָרָא אֵלֶּה); who brings out their host by number, he calls them all by names by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power not one is missing: The question to be asked is: Who created (מי ברא) these (אלה) five loves? The Gematria of the word ahavah (אהבה) is 13. We add 3 to the number 65, (the number of letters in the word eileh (אלה) 65 + 3 = 68. So the results, according to the rules laid down by our sages, the name Haim (חיים) testifies to a strong love, five times as much! And if we use the language of the Kabbalah, we can word it in the following manner: All of his five sphirot ספירות are full of love.

4. The name Haim, hides another secret: The Gematria of Haim (חיים) is 68, the same Gematria as the word "the Prophet" hanavi (הנביא) - 68 = ה-5 + נ-50 + ב-2 + א-1. I am asking you to believe my words, that the Prophet Elijah, commanded me to write down the words of this sermon.

We are going from Darkness to the Light!

With a love multiplied by five

Haim
