What we are asking is: are the Tzadikim still there, or have they already made the trip to Israel where they will be resurrected?<br /><br />The Rav Ben Artzi statement gives us the possibility that the Tzadikim are either in Israel awaiting resurrection, or they have been resurrected already and we will soon be introduced to them.<br /><br />No matter what the situation, if the Tzadikim are no longer in their Kevorim outside of Israel, their empty graves are not places of Kedushah that should be used for prayer.<br /><br />We have unknowns here. Rav Ben Artzi is telling us not to pray there anymore, but not telling us why. I am bringing down from scriptures the possible why. If Hashem has sent the Rav a message not to pray at the graves of Tzadikim outside of Israel, we should not question it, just obey.

The fact that people are and were helped throughout centuries after praying at graves of tzaddikim all over the world, including Morocco, Poland, Hungary, etc., definitely comes from the kedushah and not chas veshalom from the sitra achra, is proof that praying at graves is the right and proper thing to do.<br />Shalom E.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170726902683483449.post-70623598103358504532016-07-29T06:41:25.650+03:002016-07-29T06:41:25.650+03:00Thank you.

And the Mishna Brura there explains[2]: "As the cemetery is the place of rest of tzaddikim and prayer is more easily accepted there. But he should not aim his prayers at the dead[3], rather he should request from Hashem to have mercy on him in the merit[4] of the tzaddikim who are dwelling in the earth'. And the Rema writes the same regarding Erev Yom Kippur[5]: "There are places where the custom is to go to graves and give tzedaka".<br /><br />In the 'Sefer Chassidim' of Rabbeinu Yehuda haChassid[6] it says: "The dead derive pleasure when their dear ones come to their graves and daven for the good of their souls, and this makes it better for them in that world, and also when requested from them they pray for those who are alive"[7].<br /><br />And in the 'Mateh Ephraim'[8] it says: "It is a great zechus to daven at the graves of tzaddikim".<br /><br />You can read more here:<br />http://meronlive.net/en/kivrei-tzaddikimDevorahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00793434651294780439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170726902683483449.post-33123782448746855792016-07-28T13:00:07.972+03:002016-07-28T13:00:07.972+03:00The nefesh may be there, but the Neshamah is in Sh...The nefesh may be there, but the Neshamah is in Shamayim.

The righteous (Jew of not) will survive. The wicked will perish.

There will not be any leaders of nations outside of Israel, so the nations themselves will be no more, just the righteous people.<br /><br />I heard this years ago, but I believe all of Israel, which will be much, much bigger, will now be called Jerusalem; and, all the land outside of Jerusalem will be called the Holy Land (all the land of the world).

We know that the departed will be resurrected in Israel. Those outside of Israel will go through tunnels underground to Israel to rise up again (that is a great oversimplification). That is the why, but not the when. If the Rav is saying that they are already here awaiting their resurrection, or even better, that they have already risen and will be introduced at the proper time, either way going to their graves outside of Israel is useless and possibly idolatry.<br /> <br />Another reason to avoid praying at graves. It is definitely brought down that we can only talk to Hashem. We can go to the grave of a Tzadik only because it is a place of higher Kedushah (which it may no longer be outside of Israel, if they are not there). The problem is we talk to the Tzadik instead of Hashem, just the way the goyim do (talking to Hashem through someone who died two thousand years ago). Talking to a Tzadik, who can't hear you, is idolatry. We go to the Cave of Machpelah or Rochel's tomb, but it always should be to pray to Hashem, not to people who can't hear us. We can pray in their merit, but to Hashem!!!!!<br /> <br />It is all much more complicated than I could explain here, especially how much damage we do to ourselves by not understanding what Hashem wants from us. <br />The Absolute Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14060786380470453883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170726902683483449.post-75044391820102821392016-07-28T04:29:44.318+03:002016-07-28T04:29:44.318+03:00of course righteous nations will be saved Noach hi...of course righteous nations will be saved Noach himself was a rightous Nation<br />Not a JewAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170726902683483449.post-51406533989898962342016-07-28T04:03:32.990+03:002016-07-28T04:03:32.990+03:00This video is so good, I received it from three di...This video is so good, I received it from three different readers.
