Rav Shlomo Katz and the chevra of Shirat David learn that the wars of modern Israel are not merely political or historical events. But they are biblical events, unfolding in front of our eyes.

Through the lens of Hilchos Milchamah VeShalom by Rav Shmuel Eliyahu, Rav Shlomo walks through the miracles of 1948, 1967, 1973, and the present moment, showing how again and again Am Yisrael has lived through the fulfillment of prophecy. But together with that miracle comes a warning: when Jews forget that Hashem is the One fighting behind the scenes, pride, confusion, and spiritual blindness begin to take hold.

This is a piercing shiur about prophecy, victory, gaavah, focus, bitul, and the responsibility of building a life in Eretz Yisrael that is conscious of geulah. To live here truthfully is not just to survive history. It is to become aligned with what Hashem is revealing through it.
