ARC Israel Updates

Day 376 Swords of Iron – “Protected under the Tabernacle of David“

Chaim starts out with a gag about the Ark of the Covenant before moving on to some commentary about how it’s the beginning of Succot, which is a time when joy is COMMANDED by the Bible, and it’s a time of ingathering. In ancient times it was a time of ingathering the harvest and in modern time its significant in the narrative of ingathering the exiles.

He then says that Hezbollah is relentlessly firing rockets, missiles and UAV’s into the Galilee but the IDF is hitting back. In this context, he requests that if any donors out there want to send his unit a thermal drone he can use it. It’s expensive, but it’s one of the most useful tools they have in the battle against Hezbollah.

He also mentions the Jewish sailors on the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier who built a Succah to celebrate this festival even in a time of war.

He mentions some of the hardships including attempts to bribe Israeli citizens to carry out attacks on leaders and prominent scientists and also to carry out random shooting attacks on the roads.

In this context, he quotes Zechariah 14:16; And it shall come to pass that everyone who is left of all the nations which came against Jerusalem shall go up from year to year to worship the King, the Lord of hosts, and to keep the Feast of Tabernacles.

He also quotes Amos 9:11; “On that day I will raise up the tabernacle of David, which has fallen down, and repair its damages; I will raise up its ruins, and rebuild it as in the days of old;”

He also quotes Leviticus 24:32; You shall dwell in booths for seven days. All who are native Israelites shall dwell in booths,

He mentions some other fun traditions that are associated with Succot and then he asks his viewers to keep standing with and praying for Israel.

(Day 637) Swords of Iron – “Dream Team”

Chaim starts out by wishing a happy Independence Day to his American viewers, adding that Israelis are very happy to be such good friends with the United States. We know that it goes back to May 14th, 1948, when US President Harry S. Truman was the first world leader to recognize the newborn State of Israel. This friendship and partnership continues to the present day, when both countries realize that freedom must be actively preserved, protected and defended.

(Day 636) Swords of Iron – “Ceasefire Proposal: Keep Your Eye On The Ball”

Chaim starts by pointing out that in both Israel and Iran, everyone is trying ot pick up the peices from the 12-Day War, but in Iran, there’s a lot more pieces to try and pick up. Despite the terrible beating they took, the Ayatollahs seem to think they can continue their quest for nuclear weapons and are doing everything they can to try and get their centrifuges spinning again. President Trump has warned them not to, and so has Prime Minister Netanyahu, but they might not have learned anything from the last round of strikes on them so there might need to be another round.

(Day 635) Swords of Iron – “Let me tell you what’s coming”

Chaim starts out by saying that he’s home on leave from the front for a short time, and he adds that the war with Iran might not be over. They’re getting ready to do some mischief, perhaps mining the Straits of Hormuz. Also, Saudi Arabia is speaking up, saying that what’s needed in Gaza is the complete removal of Hamas.
