God's Record
How perplexing are Israel and the Jews to the world!
No one, Jews especially, knows how to solve the problem of contention
with, and hatred of, the Jew. There are those, like Hitler, who
think extermination is the answer. There are those, like Muhammad,
who think bullying into submission is the answer. They are wrong.
God, the Savior of Israel, has the true answer, and He has given
it to us to give to you. While this letter is addressed to the
Jews and the nation of Israel, it is meant for everyone to read
and, whosoever will, to share with Jewish friends and acquaintances,
and with whoever professes a love for the God of Israel.
Paul Cohen
David's response:
How perplexing are the mission of Israel and the tragedy of uneducated
Jews to the world! No one, Jews especially, can ignore the scriptural
prescription (Deut. 4:1-6) to solve the problem of contention with,
and hatred of, the Jew. There are those agents of Divine retribution,
like Hitler, who promote extermination as the answer. There are
those, like Muhammad, who preach bullying into submission as the
answer. They are wrong to think their actions are at cross-purposes
with God, the Savior of Israel, who has taught Israel the true
answer, and He has a special place in Gehinnom for all who preach
lies to His people.
While your letter was addressed to the Jews and the nation of
Israel, it is hoped that the you, Paul, the original author, will
read and, if you open your heart to the truth, to share your repentance
from the nazarene blasphemy, the source of two millenia of uninterrupted
bloodshed, mayhem, and idolatry, with Jewish friends and acquaintances,
and with whomever professes a love for the God of Israel.
THE KEY FOR JEWS SEARCHING IN OTHERS' BACKYARDS
Paul's reply:
David,
It is written in the Jewish Publication Society Bible:
"He that giveth answer before he heareth, it is folly and
confusion unto him" (Proverbs 18:13).
You answer us without
knowing or addressing what we have actually said and without
any true knowledge of where we stand. Read
what we have written, not just in The
Key for Israel and the Jew,
but in all the writings and correspondences in Israel
and the Jew.
Get your mouth and fingers out of reflex-action mode,
and deal with the facts and reality, or continue to show yourself
a
jackass who brays for the whip.
You say "the nazarene
blasphemy" is "the
source of two millennia of uninterrupted bloodshed, mayhem,
and idolatry." Obviously,
as a citizen of the United States, you show no recognition
for the fact that the founders of this country had great
respect for
the "Nazarene," and on account of Him, gave you
a safe place to live from the pogroms, forced conversions,
and genocidal
intentions of Hitlers and religious tyrants like the pope
and others.
Having despised the goodness of God in giving
you refuge, that refuge will surely be taken from you.
Now you will
see His
wrath as you have not before, and so will all those who
think and behave
as you do. He is finished winking at such ingratitude,
and at your blasphemy. Watch and see.
Paul Cohen
David's response:
David,
It is written in the Jewish Publication Society Bible:
"He that giveth answer before he heareth, it is folly and
confusion unto him" (Proverbs 18:13).
You answer us without knowing or addressing what we have actually
said and without any true knowledge of where we stand.
As do you. Look in the mirror!
You bring not only embarrasment to yourself but HUMILIATION to
the generations who brought you into this world.
The Founders were an odd lot, many of the most influential were
Deists and philanderers, according to the contemporary fashion.
Read what we have written, not just in The
Key for Israel and the Jew, but in all the writings and correspondences in Israel
and
the Jew.
Thanks for the links. They confirm my first impression of arrogance
and ignorance. Are you familiar with the languages of the Scriptures,
Hebrew and Aramaic? A simple reading of many of the original
verses as mistranslated through the Septuagint accounts for
much of the
confusion.
Have you checked your lineage? Perhaps you are not actually
a descendant of the humble Abraham and Aaron after all, despite
your name. In
which case your disaffection from the Truth is not tragic,
but
typical.
With luck the kernels of true wisdom which are so transparently
attacked in your literature will ultimately have a positive
impact on your adherents.
May the Creator of the Universe have mercy on all His children,
for "...as Thorns make ruddy Roses pick'd more dear, each
bloody Prick's a Badge of perfum'd Heaven..."

Paul's reply:
"But the ungodly,
they are as thorns thrust away, all of them, for they cannot
be taken with the hand; But the man that
toucheth them must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear;
and they shall be utterly burned with fire in their place" (2
Samuel 23:6-7 JPS).
David Shapero, you tell us to look in the mirror,
as though we don't know or understand you, but we know much more
about you than
you can imagine. We are not ignorant, of you, or in what we speak
from the God of Israel.
No matter what Bibles you use or languages
you speak, you are no different from your murderous fathers
who, though they had
the
most accurate of Bibles and knowledge of the language therein,
persecuted the prophets and crucified the Holy One of Israel.
Because you have contemned our words given of Him to speak, you
will suffer the consequences. God is fed up with your willful
ignorance
and arrogance. There is no more time for Him to suffer fools.
Paul Cohen
David's response:
I notice you do not answer my direct questions,
"But the ungodly, they are as thorns thrust away, all of
them, for they cannot be taken with the hand; But the man that
toucheth them
must be armed with iron and the staff of a spear; and they
shall be utterly burned with fire in their place." (2 Samuel
23:6-7 JPS).
although you did pick up on my sonnet fragment
David Shapero, you tell us to look in the
mirror, as though we don't know or understand you, but we know
much more about
you
than you can imagine. We are not ignorant, of you, or
in what we speak
from the God of Israel.
No matter what Bibles you use
or languages you speak, you are no different from your murderous
fathers who, though
they
had the
most accurate of Bibles and knowledge of the language
therein, persecuted the prophets
false prophets deserve death
and crucified the Holy One of Israel.
Ahem, this was the Romans, I believe.
Unless it's all a mistake, anyway...as it appears from Josephus,
an eyewitness of the Destruction of Jerusalem.
His detailed descriptions of Pontius Pilate, John the Baptist,
the Sanhedrin, the High Priest Caiaphas, Crucifixion by Roman
soldiers, curiously overlook the life, teachings and mission
of your aforementioned
Crucified One except this briefest of paragraphs, a notorious
forgery:
“Now, there was about this time Jesus, a wise man, if it
be lawful to call him a man, for he was a doer of wonderful works,
a teacher
of such men as receive the truth with pleasure. He drew over
to him both many of the Jews, and many of the Gentiles. He was
[the]
Christ; and when Pilate, at the suggestion of the principal
men among us, had condemned him to the cross, those that loved
him
at the first did not forsake him, for he appeared to them alive
again the third day, as the divine prophets had foretold these
and ten thousand other wonderful things concerning him; and
the tribe of Christians, so named from him, are not extinct to
this
day.”
—Antiquities, Book XVIII, Chapter III:63-64
A cursory comparison with the complex, long-winded paragraphs
about relative trifles which precede and follow makes the sad
truth obvious.
Because you have contemned our words
given of Him to speak, you will suffer the consequences. God
is fed up with your willful ignorance and
arrogance.
There is no more time for Him to suffer fools.
That puts you in a very delicate position.
DS
Paul's reply:
Between my letters to you and the ones I sent you in the Uri
Yosef correspondence, I have answered all your questions and more. It
is not my fault that you are not responsible or honest enough to
see and admit it.
You say or insinuate that your fathers only killed
false prophets. You are grossly ignorant of the Record against
you and your fathers,
or worse yet, a purposeful liar. Yes, it is the latter. You
claim to be a "rabbi" who knows the Bible in its original
language, so what else could be happening except you deliberately
deny the
things written in the Bible?
The Record shows that your fathers
embraced the false prophets they should have stoned and stoned
God's prophets they should
have embraced. You prove your lineage by continuing in this
tradition of your fathers and in their blood guiltiness for the
murder
of
the Anointed of God.
We will see how well it goes for you. This
will be posted on our site so that all can be witnesses of your
claims versus
ours. You
are not mocking man, but God and His Law.
Here is a portion
of the Record against you (and you tell us, David, what it says
that is so different in your Hebrew
Bible):
2 Chronicles 36:15-17 JPS
(15) And the LORD, the God of their fathers, sent to them by His
messengers, sending betimes and often; because He had compassion
on His people, and on His dwelling-place;
(16) but they mocked the messengers of God, and despised His words,
and scoffed at His prophets, until the wrath of the LORD arose
against His people, till there was no remedy.
(17) Therefore He brought upon them the king of the Chaldeans,
who slew their young men with the sword in the house of their sanctuary,
and had no compassion upon young man or maiden, old man or hoary-headed;
He gave them all into his hand.
2 Chronicles 24:20-21 JPS
(20) And the spirit of God clothed Zechariah the son of Jehoiada
the priest; and he stood above the people, and said unto them:
'Thus saith God: Why transgress ye the commandments of the LORD,
that ye cannot prosper? because ye have forsaken the LORD, He
hath also forsaken you.'
(21) And they conspired against him, and stoned him with stones
at the commandment of the king in the court of the house of the
LORD.
Jeremiah 18:20-23 JPS
(20) Shall evil be recompensed for good? For they have digged
a pit for my soul. Remember how I stood before Thee to speak
good
for them, to turn away Thy wrath from them.
(21) Therefore deliver up their children to the famine, and
hurl them to the power of the sword; and let their wives be
bereaved
of their children, and widows; and let their men be slain of
death, and their young men smitten of the sword in battle.
(22) Let a cry be heard from their houses, when thou shalt
bring a troop suddenly upon them; for they have digged a pit
to take
me, and hid snares for my feet.
(23) Yet, LORD, Thou knowest all their counsel against me to
slay me; forgive not their iniquity, neither blot out their
sin from
Thy sight; but let them be made to stumble before Thee; Deal
Thou with them in the time of Thine anger.
Psalms 69:4-28 JPS
(4) (69:5) They that hate me without a cause are more than
the hairs of my head; they that would cut me off, being mine
enemies
wrongfully, are many; should I restore that which I took
not away?
(7) (69:8) Because for Thy sake I have borne reproach;
confusion hath covered my face.
(8) (69:9) I am become a stranger unto my brethren, and an
alien unto my mother's children.
(9) (69:10) Because zeal for Thy house hath eaten me up,
and the reproaches of them that reproach Thee are fallen
upon me.
(10) (69:11) And I wept with my soul fasting, and that
became unto me a reproach.
(11) (69:12) I made sackcloth also my garment, and I became
a byword unto them.
(12) (69:13) They that sit in the gate talk of me; and
I am the song of the drunkards.
(13) (69:14) But as for me, let my prayer be unto Thee,
O LORD, in an acceptable time; O God, in the abundance
of Thy
mercy,
answer me with the truth of Thy salvation.
(20) (69:21)
Reproach hath broken my heart; and I am sore sick; and
I looked for some to show compassion, but there
was none;
and for comforters, but I found none.
(21) (69:22) Yea, they put poison into my food; and in
my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink.
(22) (69:23) Let their table before them become a snare;
and when they are in peace, let it become a trap.
(23) (69:24) Let their eyes be darkened, that they see
not; and make their loins continually to totter.
(24) (69:25) Pour out Thine indignation upon them, and
let the fierceness of Thine anger overtake them.
(25) (69:26) Let their encampment be desolate; let none
dwell in their tents.
(26) (69:27) For they persecute him whom Thou hast smitten;
and they tell of the pain of those whom Thou hast wounded.
(27) (69:28) Add iniquity unto their iniquity; and let
them not come into Thy righteousness.
(28) (69:29) Let them be blotted out of the book of the
living, and not be written with the righteous.
Deuteronomy
31:16-21 JPS
(16) And the LORD said unto Moses: 'Behold, thou art about
to sleep with thy fathers; and this people will rise up,
and go
astray after
the foreign gods of the land, whither they go to be among
them, and will forsake Me, and break My covenant which
I have made
with them.
(17) Then My anger shall be kindled against them in that
day, and I will forsake them, and I will hide My face from
them,
and they
shall be devoured, and many evils and troubles shall come
upon them; so that they will say in that day: Are not these
evils
come upon us because our God is not among us?
(18) And I will surely hide My face in that day for all
the evil which they shall have wrought, in that they are
turned
unto other
gods.
(19) Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach
thou it the children of Israel; put it in their mouths,
that this
song
may be a witness for Me against the children of Israel.
(20) For when I shall have brought them into the land which
I swore unto their fathers, flowing with milk and honey;
and they
shall
have eaten their fill, and waxen fat; and turned unto other
gods, and served them, and despised Me, and broken My covenant;
(21) then it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles
are come upon them, that this song shall testify before
them as a witness;
for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their
seed; for I know their imagination how they do even now,
before I
have brought them into the land which I swore.'
And whom
shall I believe, the Messiah, Who is in agreement with
the Scriptures, or you, the liar and hypocrite He
addresses here?
Matthew 23:29-36 MKJV
(29) Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! Because
you build the tombs of the prophets, and decorate the
tombs of the
righteous,
(30) and say, If we had been in the days of our fathers,
we would not have been partakers with them in the blood
of the
prophets.
(31) Therefore you are witnesses to yourselves, that
you are the sons of those who killed the prophets;
(32) and you fill up the measure of your fathers.
(33) Serpents! Offspring of vipers! How can you escape
the condemnation of hell?
(34) Therefore, behold, I send prophets and wise men
and scribes to you. And you will kill and crucify some
of them.
And some
of them you will scourge in your synagogues and persecute
from city
to city;
(35) so that on you may come all the righteous blood
shed on the earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to
the blood
of
Zechariah the son of Berachiah, whom you killed between
the temple and
the
altar.
(36) Truly I say to you, All these things shall come
on this generation.
The Jews in Christ's day, though lying
about their culpability, at least admitted the prophets
were killed by their fathers,
whereas you now deny that such ever happened. You have
surpassed your fathers
in lying, of which you are no doubt very proud, so perverse
you are. Of Jewry, you are the bottom of the barrel.
As
for Josephus, I hadn't brought him up, and I do not need his
testimony (or fraudulent additions to his testimony)
to know the truth
from God. You tell me, just what ancient heathen sources
are you using to verify the Tenach? Do you have Philistine
records
that
prove the existence of Samson? Or Egyptian records
that prove
the existence of Moses?
"A fool's mouth is his ruin, and his lips are the snare of
his soul" (Proverbs
18:7 JPS).
Or in language you seem to prefer: You are
hoisted on your own petard.
What I see with you, David, is a cockroach
who has been feeding himself on the garbage without fear, but
now the owners
have come home,
the light has been turned on, and the feast is
over. You are finished.
Paul Cohen
It was expected, as one would expect pus and putrefaction to emerge
from a boil that was lanced. Cleansing and healing will follow,
because God has ordained it for His people. Will you, Israel, identify
with the pus or the Doctor?

A Letter of Promise, Hope, and Exhortation
to the Dispersed and Oppressed Uncircumcised-in-Heart Seed of
Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob
We witness the ungodly and unjust hatred for
Jews everywhere and consider there is something important going
on. We are also in awe of the marvelous historical developments
and events, knowing very well, by God’s grace, that man cannot
do what has developed concerning the Jews at any time, perhaps
especially in this last century. Here is a letter of promise to
God's chosen in the flesh, based on His faithfulness and awesome
power:
“I, even I, am He Who comforts you: who are you, that you
are afraid of man who shall die, and of the son of man who shall
be made as grass; and have forgotten the LORD your Maker, Who stretched
forth the Heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth…?” (Isaiah
51:12-13 HNV)
“Every way of a man is right in his own
eyes, but the LORD weighs the hearts” (Proverbs 21:2 HNV).
Israel, come hear the Word of God, and let your
hearts be revealed; know the Truth and be reconciled to Your Father.
It is time. Of what value is it to continue in darkness, not knowing
Him and His heart towards you, Who has loved you from days of old
and draws you with lovingkindness?
Israel, your God knows and sees what you suffer. He is not remote,
unfamiliar, or unaffected by what is happening with you. There
is a reason for your predicament, however, a reason that holds
the key to the solution for all. There is an answer from God, which
you need to hear and know.
Jews, you have tried everything to be at peace, to
have dialogue with, and to appease, the world. You have tried everything,
and nothing has worked, because you lacked the simple solution.
Here is the key for Israel, the Jew, and the whole world. |
