Yitzchak
Kaduri, was a renowned Mizrahi Haredi rabbi and kabbalist who devoted his
life to Torah study and prayer on behalf of the Jewish people. According to
his obituary in Maariv, before his death, Yitzhak Kaduri spoke of his expectations
of the Messiah’s advent. 5 months before his departure, he also claimed
to have met the Messiah.

Rabbi Yitzchak Kaduri, the old Jewish Rabbi, passed from this
life in 2006 at the age of 113. This was the Jewish year of 5766. Before his
passing he claimed that in a dream the Messiah of Israel had come to him and
revealed Himself to him. He told the other Rabbis in Jerusalem and other parts
of the world that he knew the Messiah personally for he had met Him in his
dream, spoken with Him, and worshiped Him.
Rabbi Kaduri then said that he had left a letter to be opened after his death.
This letter would reveal the name of the Messiah and other important information
which the Messiah had given to him. The letter was left in the possession
of his son, and if I remember correctly there was a designated time after
his death when the letter was to be opened. Anyway, the letter was opened
at the designated time and it was such a shock to the Rabbi’s son that
he hesitated to reveal the contents of the letter, but finally did. In the
letter the old Rabbi stated that the name of the Messiah of Israel was “Yeshua,”
the One whom the Christians call “Jesus.” That revelation was
such a shock to the Rabbis in Jerusalem and other parts of the world that
it created an uproar among the Rabbis.
Remember that for 2,000 years the Rabbis of the Jewish people have lied about
the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ [Matthew 28:11-15], refused to believe
on Him, and have done everything they knew to do to discredit Him in the eyes
of their own Jewish people. Remember also that the Lord God explicitly told
the Jewish people centuries ago, “As for My people, children are their
oppressors, and women rule over them. O My people, they which lead thee cause
thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths,” Isaiah 3:12.
Is it any wonder that there will be a great “mourning” in Israel
and among the Jewish people when the “remnant” of Israel finally
learn who their Messiah really is, a truth that these Rabbis have willfully
and deliberately kept hidden from them for the past 2,000 years? Read it for
yourself in Zechariah 12:10-14 and 13:6.
Our readers can surely imagine the shock that it was to these Jewish Rabbis
when the most honored and respected Jewish Rabbi in the whole world up until
his death, told them in his final letter that the name of the Jewish Messiah
is “Yeshua,” the very One whom the Jewish Rabbis have lied about
and denied for centuries.
As I read these reports about the old Rabbi, I not only rejoiced that this
information had been made public, but I immediately recognized why it had
been revealed at this particular time in history. Think about it! The “seed”
has now been sown among the Jewish Rabbis which will result in 144,000 of
them turning to Christ immediately after the beginning of the Tribulation
as they hear “the gospel of the Kingdom” being proclaimed by God’s
“two witnesses.” Glory to God! Hallelujah! Praise the Lord! Thank
you Lord Jesus!
However, that is not all the old Rabbi revealed in his final letter to his
people. He specifically related how he had asked the Messiah in his dream,
“When will You return?” He stated that the Messiah told him that
He would return in the month of Av in the Jewish year 5772. He would not give
the old Rabbi the exact date, but told him to “tell the people!”
Wow! Glory to God! Folks, on the Jewish calendar, this year is the Jewish
year of 5772. The Jewish year of 5772 began on Rosh HaShanah, the first day
of the 7th month on the Jewish calendar in 2011. But then when does the month
of Av begin? The month of Av is the fifth month in the Jewish year and it
begins on July 19th – 20th of this present year of 2012, less than 30
days from right now. The 20th day of July is actually the first day of Av
on the Jewish calendar.
The rapture is at hand, friends! Even so, come Lord Jesus!
