The Entire Redemption Will Come in the Merit of the Righteous Converts Who Convert and Leave Their Homes • The Daily Lesson from the Gaon and Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a

Before you is the full daily lesson as delivered by our teacher, the Rav, Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a - yesterday after the Maariv (evening) prayer, Thursday night, the 22nd of Sivan, Parshat Shelach-Lecha:
"So every day there are ten killed, ten seriously wounded without hands, without legs, without eyes, completely blind for life—all because there are still girls who do not lengthen their skirts and do not sew the skirt; a slit is a Torah prohibition because the Geulah (Redemption) will come only through the girls. The Rebbe [Rebbe Nachman] writes in Section 13, 'Adultery' in Sefer HaMiddos (The Book of Traits) that the Geulah (Redemption) will come only through the girls who walk with tzniut (modesty). And therefore, at the party [the Nova festival], they didn't touch any girl who arrived with tzniut—against her will. They said, 'We won't touch you.' They shot one over another, a thousand girls were shot one by one from point-blank range, two hundred were taken captive, a hundred were released, a hundred are still in captivity, being abused until they die; already forty-five are dead. This is all because a girl does not walk with tzniut, so she is exposed to the Satan (the Accuser). Because the body is a body of the Satan; the body of everyone is a body of the Satan. 'Kutnot Or' (garments of skin) is the body of the snake; the snake shed its skin and dressed Adam and Eve in it, and now we need a hundred and twenty years—we need a hundred and twenty years to renovate this body, to fight with this body. It says bad things, it releases bad things to a person; a person needs to know how to fight with the body twenty-four hours a day, while sleeping, while awake, in a dream—it doesn't matter, the body is constantly lying to him, deceiving him, bringing him to Gaza, bringing him to Khan Yunis, to Rafah. Like Joseph the Tzaddik was in Rafah [referring to his exile/imprisonment], a thousand terrorists were requested, Bibi [Netanyahu] didn't agree, in the end, Biden compromised on two thousand terrorists for Joseph the Tzaddik. In the end, how many years was he [there]? Twenty-two [years in Egypt], so they wanted twenty-two million terrorists to release him, in the end, Bibi agreed, they brought twenty-two thousand terrorists and then they released him. And then Serach bat Asher sang the song 'Joseph is still alive and he is king in Egypt, and he has two sons, Menashe and Ephraim.' Because once, every woman was a prophetess; whoever reveals that Joseph is alive will die on the spot, so every girl was a prophetess—sixty thousand prophetesses in every generation. So says Eliyahu HaNavi (Elijah the Prophet) that Jezebel killed six hundred thousand prophetesses, and therefore Jezebel needs to come in the gilgul (reincarnation) of Cozbi bat Zur, she needs to come in the gilgul of the wife of Turnus Rufus the Wicked, who converted and married Rabbi Akiva. Because Rabbi Akiva was a nitzotz (spark) of Zimri, and therefore they needed to comb [his flesh] with iron combs because he was Zimri himself; now he comes to achieve tikkun (rectification), now he comes to convert because truly Cozbi wanted to convert, only Zimri didn't convert her. It was 'reverse upon reverse' (hafoch al hafoch), but the moment a woman converts—like Yitro (Jethro), that the moment he converted, then all his sons and daughters were in the Lishkat HaGazit (Chamber of Hewn Stone/Sanhedrin)—and the entire Geulah (Redemption) will come in the merit of the Gerei Tzedek (righteous converts) who convert and leave their homes: 'Go for yourself from your land, from your birthplace, and from your father's house to the land that I will show you'—they hear the commandment of 'Do not steal, do not murder, do not commit adultery.'".
