#188 - Who is the Chief of the World?

Today, the 23rd of Elul, marks 12 years since that fateful 9/11 day, the Yahrzeit, or the death, of a few thousand people, which included Jews, and at that, a few observant Jews, thanks to 19 terrorists between four planes who had no problem being willing to die themselves, so as long as many more people, which would most likely include Jews, could die - but not just a sudden peaceful death, but rather for many if not most, a most torturous death, between the fear that they would indeed die and physical torture such as burning by fire.

Nearly three years ago, in Post 88 (Nov '10), I wrote about 9/11 in connection to the concepts of what the number 88 represents.  This number has been used to refer to the infamous greeting of "Heil Hitler!" being that the letter H that begins both words is the 8th letter of the alphabet.  And now that Obama, as the 44th president of the United States, is now in the midst of his 2nd 4-year term thanks to the political corruption that allowed this to happen, especially with the sabotage of the voting booths, this is 44 times two which yields the total of 88.

As explained in past posts of mine, the Edom that was Rome at one time is the United States today, and as proven, the United States in essence consists of 51 states, as Washington D.C., the U.S. capitol, is its own area without being part of one of the 50 states; and accordingly, the Gematria of Edom is 51.

Now, Genesis 36, the last chapter of Parshat Vayishlach, the 8th Parsha of the Torah, in 43 verses, mentions the details about Esau's family and the country of Edom in which they settled in.  In time, various members of Esau and the Edomite kingdom became known as Aluf (Chief) (or Alufim/Chiefs in plural).  In this chapter, there are 42 mentions of this wording, and once more in the Chumash (Penteteuch) - in the midst of the Shirat HaYam (Song of the Sea), the first of 10 songs of the Torah that the Jewish people sang following the crossing of the Reed Sea and the drowning of the Egyptians who were chasing after them, where it states "Then the chiefs of Edom were confused", making this a total of 43 times in the Chumash that this wording of Aluf is mentioned.  In any case, an interesting observation that we see here is that this title seems to be reserved exclusively for this nation of Edom.

Now of course, the question that can be asked here is why?  Certainly in an established society, you have the basic titles that are used describing various positions of status.  And so, if this title of Aluf is used exclusively for one nations, especially as mentioned by the Torah, there has to be a good reason for this.

In Judaism, among Hashem's many titles, He is known as the Alufo Shel Olam, "Chief of the World".  This wording of Aluf is actually based on the first letter of the Aleph-Beit, the Aleph, the name of this letter being the Gematria of 111.  And as we see both in the beginnings of the Midrash of Yalkut Shimoni and the Zohar, although it is the letter Beit that was chosen to begin the Torah (Bereishit), it is the Aleph that begins the Aseret HaDibrot (Ten Commandments) - Anochi Hashem Elokeicha "I am Hashem your G-d".

Now, if this Aluf title would be a title that would be used by various nations, such as Melech (King), even though Hashem uses this title as well, it would be understood that although He uses the title, it is the way of the world that others use the title as well.  However, the fact that we see that only one nation, especially if not used by Hashem's Chosen Nation of Israel, uses a title that is used by Hashem, there must be a special reason why this is the case.

And so, the fact that Edom, a most bitter enemy of the Jewish people, uses a title that is used by Hashem, shows its brazenness.  As we see, the first letter of the name Edom is an Alef, and both names Artzot HaBrit and America referring to the United States, which is the Edom of title, begin with this letter as well.  And as we see in Genesis 36 about Esau/Edom, one of the many family members with this title is Amalek, son of Eliphaz, whose name is quite similar to the Aluf title, and grandson of Esau, who was the daring nation to first attack the Jews following the Exodus which scared the entire world, including Edom.  We see that the biggest avowed enemy of the Jewish people - Amalek (Note: This name does not begin with an Aleph, but an Ayin) is a cousin of the Jewish people as a descendant of Esau, Jacob's brother and Isaac's son.

In time, Amalek's extended family of Edom became the dominant force in the world, under whose rule, the destruction of the second Beit HaMikdash (Temple) was destroyed and the exile of the Jewish people which has lasted until today for nearly 2,000 years.  Among its height of brazenness was shown by Titus, chief general of Rome, who entered the Temple to destroy it, but before doing so, took a Sefer Torah (Torah scroll) from the Temple, unrolled it, and had relations with a prostitute on it.  He also took a sword and pierced the curtain of the Holy of Holies to kill the G-d of the Jews so to speak, and when he saw blood coming out of it, which Hashem allowed miraculously to happen, it seemed to confirm what he thought to accomplish.

In a similar vein, in the Edom of today, it is Barack Hussein Obama, despite his personal flaws which clearly disqualify him from being president of the United States, who dared to march his way straight to the White House to be the 44th president of the United States, and won despite such odds that he was challenged with, but purposefully ignored by the corrupt politicians in the Democratic party and the media - not once, but twice!  Moreover, the first letter of the last name (in Hebrew) that he currently uses, although his real legal family name is Sotero, is also an Aleph.

In parallel, noting that there are 43 verses of the chapter in the Torah that is about the Alufim (Chiefs) of Edom, and 43 mentions of this wording in the Torah, including the mention in the beginning of the 43rd and last verse of this chapter - Aluf Magdiel, in which the word Magdiel begins with the letters Mem-Gimmel (43), while this name itself (which means "Tower of G-d") is the Gematria of the infamous number 88; the liberation of Yerushalayim (Jerusalem) - the city in which the Temple is located - in recent times took place on the 43rd day of the Omer.  And significantly, it is Obama, as the 44th president of the United States, who are the combination of Gog U'Magog, as proven through the Hidden Codes of the Torah, noting that the name of the country of Magog also begins with Mem-Gimmel (43), who brazenly puts himself above everything that Jerusalem stands for.  And while he pays lip service when he exclaims that Jerusalem is the undivided capitol of Israel, his subsequent words and actions prove just the opposite, in the same breath that he states "Holy Koran", the same Bible of Islam that doesn't mention the name of Jerusalem even once, while the Moslem Arabs claim to be the rightful owners of the Temple Mount.

In recent times, it was Hitler, may his name and memory be blotted as Amalek, as the Chief of his country, who attempted to murder all the Jews, to the extent that his Nazi followers claim that "Hitler didn't finish the job".  He is most represented by the number 88 as I mentioned earlier, and this number in Hebrew also spells the word Pach "trash", who was truly the ultimate "white trash", who claimed that the best race is the Aryan white race, although ironically, he himself didn't quite fit the full description of this race.

Now, noting the number of this post - 188, it can be dissected into two parts - One (1) and Eighty Eight (88), for indeed, it is particularly the worst human trash of the world who claim themselves to be the Aluf - this word being related to Alef, the FIRST letter of the Alef-Beit and the numerical value of ONE -  or more particularly, the Alufo Shel Olam, Chief of the World, that is reserved particularly for Hashem.

Just remember one thing.  Don't tell anti-Semites how 9/11 happened.  You see, some claim that 9/11 happened a little differently than what is shown on video, which is hardly different than those denying the Holocaust that is easily proven through pictures and video, including the father of the anti-Semitic film director Mel Gibson, who believes that the horrific events of this infamous date happened by a remote control, like the ones that we use when flipping through the stations on T.V.   For when it comes to denying G-d and practicing anti-Semitism, even logic can't stay in the way.

But don't worry.  It won't be long before the world will recognize the ultimate world power following the prophesized fall of Edom - the TRUE Alufo Shel Olam "Chief of the World", Whose rule will reign forever.
