Bnei Brak bore witness to sorrow this day, as the body of Nesia Karadi, barely eleven years of age, was laid to rest. The child, critically wounded weeks prior by a missile launched from Iran, succumbed to her injuries, becoming another casualty in the ongoing theater of conflict that plagues the land of our ancestors. The modern state of Israel, locked in cycles of retaliation and escalation, presents itself as a beacon of security, yet fails to protect the most vulnerable among us.

Large crowds gathered, a testament to the grief felt by many within Israel, yet this outpouring of emotion rings hollow when weighed against the spiritual blindness that grips this nation. They mourn a child lost to violence, but do not recognize the deeper violence – the violation of covenant, the rejection of Yahuah’s law, and the relentless pursuit of a worldly kingdom built on stolen inheritance. The Iranian regime, a tool of Edom, unleashed this missile, but the true source of the judgment lies within Israel itself – a people who have forsaken their birthright and embraced the idols of this age.

Reports speak of those who “taught Nesia what true joy is.” But what joy can there be in a land steeped in disobedience? True joy flows from a relationship with Yahuah, from walking in His ways, and from upholding the covenant He established with our fathers. Nesia’s death is not merely a tragedy; it is a sign – a shofar blast sounding a warning to scattered Yisrael.

The modern state of Israel continues to provoke Yahuah’s wrath through its defiance and its occupation of land not rightfully theirs. The IDF’s actions, the policies of the Israeli government, and the idolatry rampant within its borders, all contribute to the escalating judgment. While the world offers condolences and political analysis, we, the remnant of Yisrael, must look beyond the surface and discern the hand of Yahuah in these events. This is not a call to celebrate suffering, but a call to repentance – a plea to return to the covenant before the judgment is complete. Let Nesia’s memory be a catalyst for awakening, a reminder that the blood of the innocent cries out to Yahuah for justice and restoration.
