(OPINION) A rabbi who has recently gained notoriety for combatting what many are calling ‘medical tyranny’ recently published an article explaining the current “globalist plan” through the lens of the Bible. According to Rabbi Chananya Weissman, the prophecy mentioned in Ezekiel 34 is taking place right now in Israel, and the world as a whole.
“In chapter 34 of Yechezkel, Hashem castigates the shepherds of Israel for pasturing themselves, while neglecting the people” Rabbi Weissman explains. “Hashem then promises to gather His flock from their lands of exile and return them to Israel, where they will settle in fertile dwellings.”
O mortal, prophesy against the shepherds of Yisrael. Prophesy, and say to them: To the shepherds: Thus said Hashem: Ah, you shepherds of Yisrael, who have been tending yourselves! Is it not the flock that the shepherds ought to tend?
You partake of the fat, you clothe yourselves with the wool, and you slaughter the fatlings; but you do not tend the flock You have not sustained the weak, healed the sick, or bandaged the injured; you have not brought back the strayed, or looked for the lost; but you have driven them with harsh rigor, and they have been scattered for want of anyone to tend them; scattered, they have become prey for every wild beast.

Later on in the same chapter Ezekiel prophesizes that God will then return his flock to green pastures: As a shepherd seeks out his flock when some [animals] in his flock have gotten separated, so I will seek out My flock, I will rescue them from all the places to which they were scattered on a day of cloud and gloom.
I will take them out from the peoples and gather them from the countries, and I will bring them to their own land, and will pasture them on the mountains of Yisrael, by the watercourses and in all the settled portions of the land. (Ezekiel 34 12-13) But in case anyone thinks that those passages are a happy ending, the rabbi points out how later in the chapter, the ‘fat sheep’ again ruin the freshwater God provides the less powerful ‘sheep’ saying: READ MORE
