Red Cows & 40 Decapitated Babies: Israel Trying to Start the Apocalypse?

By now, you’ve probably all heard the ludicrous unsubstantiated propaganda about Hamas supposedly decapitating 40 babies in some kibbutz. I mean, don’t get me wrong; if it were actually true (which it clearly isn’t), then it would make them absolute monsters. It would mean that merely going around killing babies (which is completely forbidden in Islam) wasn’t enough, and they had enacted some sort of ritual slaughter (also completely forbidden in Islam). One is horrifically reminded of babies being smashed against rocks as mentioned in Psalms 137:9.

This propaganda was, of course, readily embraced by the Zionist apologists and promoted by the likes of Ben Shapiro, perhaps the most famous Israeli nationalist in the United States.

Those who claim to apply their “critical minds” to religion and gender were less skeptical this time, but others weren’t too surprised when the Israeli government—one of the many to justify Zionist settler colonialism—had itself more or less deemed it to be fake news.

But what’s so special about this number? Why specifically 40?

In a recent article, we tried to show how Judaism in general and Kabbalah in particular contain a mystical fascination with numbers, some strange numerology.

The number 40 is associated with tests and trials that are ultimately followed by accomplishment and maturation, especially of the spiritual type:

• The flood lasted 40 days and nights;
• The Israelites wandered in the desert for 40 years;
• Prophet Musa (peace be upon him) spent 40 days and nights on Mount Sinai in preparation to receive the Torah; etc. (You can read more here.)

We know that even secularized Jews have internalized such Kabbalistic concepts, so much so that they became standard in traditional Judaism, and Zionists in particular need to weaponize traditional religious imagery because their ethnostate in the Levant is predicated on what are fundamentally religious claims.

For example, Ze’ev Jabotinsky, considered to be the founding father of Israel’s right wing, was a rationalist critic of traditional Judaism, yet he embraced all the supremacist claims of the religion as these were instrumental for his Zionist project.

Thus, using the decapitated babies hoax was a geopolitical exoteric message, but adding in the mystical number 40 might have actually been more of a subliminal esoteric message.

As already mentioned, the number 40 symbolizes tests and trials—such as the current one-sided massacre of Palestinian civilians (children, women, elderly, etc.) that is constantly being described as a “conflict”—, but it also symbolizes a sense of spiritual transformation and rebirth, and this could be the rebuilding of the Third Temple.

Those who would like to know more about the importance of the Third Temple and how Zionists, especially Christian Zionists, are unleashing so much devastation and murder in Palestine in an attempt to try and build it, may refer to our earlier article regarding the 2022 attack on Al-Aqsa.

But there’s some relatively recent news that most may have missed, which seems to now make sense in eschatological terms:

For the first time in millennia, Zionists have finally managed to procure a suitable red heifer, something which is required for their temple ceremony.

Famed journalist Lawrence Wright wrote in The New Yorker in 1998 (years ago):

As Lott read the Bible that day, he realized that the Second Coming and the fate of humankind now depended on the red heifer. In order for the Jews to rebuild the Temple and prepare the way for the return of the Messiah they must be purified with the ashes of a red heifer.

 

A qualified red heifer has not been found in Israel in almost two thousand years.

[…]

The Temple Institute operates a small museum in the Jewish Quarter of the Old City. A visitor steps down into a basement room that houses the collection and a bookstore; one of the books on display is “The Mystery of the Red Heifer: Divine Promise of Purity,” by Rabbi Richman. Also on display is a scale model of the sacrificial altar and replicas of the decanters and lavers used in the Temple service. The flaxen robes of the priests have been carefully reproduced, along with the trumpets, harps, and lyres that the Levites are said to have played in the courtyard of the Temple. “You woke up in the morning to the sound of music from the Temple. You went to bed to the sound of music from the Temple,” a guide tells visitors. “Any beautiful building you ever saw cannot compare with the beauty of the Temple.”

 

The goal of the institute is not only to restore the Temple itself but to reinstate the priestly castes, clerical rule, and animal sacrifice that characterized the nation of Israel at the dawn of the Iron Age. To secular Israelis, this sounds like a Jewish version of the Taliban. And yet the construction of a third Temple is essential to the view that many Orthodox Jews have of salvation and the coming of the Messiah. Without the Temple, there is no way to fulfill many of the religious obligations, such as ritual sacrifices, that the Torah requires. In Orthodox theology, that means that all Jews are stuck in a state of impurity, and are therefore unable to be in the presence of God. When a glass is broken at a Jewish wedding, it is done in memory of the destruction of the Temple. “The Holy Temple in Judaism is so important and primary that it can really be said that Judaism as it is practiced today is not the vehicle that God intended it to be,” Richman says. “The Prophets of Israel emphasize the fact that the Temple is really much more than just a synagogue…. The Temple is actually the device through which God manifests His presence to mankind.”

And we read in a more recent Yahoo News article from July, 2023:

Those five, perfectly unblemished red heifers landed in Israel in September 2022, a feat that cost around $500,000 when you factor in the first-class plane tickets for rabbis to come examine the heifers and the American Airlines trip to Israel.

 

They’re now being taken care of at a secure location, and Stinson and others hope to hold the ceremony they’ll be used for during Passover in 2024. Stinson runs a nonprofit called Boneh Israel that helps build up and revive Biblical sites.

 

The goal of the whole ceremony is unity, Stinson said in a video interview from Israel Wednesday.

 

“Why search for a cow?” an excerpt from Boneh Israel’s website reads. ”These Red Heifers can bring world peace! The bible teaches us, that the key for building the Third Temple (the House of Prayer for All the Nations) is purifying us with the red heifer in Jerusalem.”

 

If you’re wondering how such a ceremony works, the short of it is that at the end one of the heifers will die.

 

But while there are five heifers, only one will be needed for the ceremony. They’ll mix the ashes of the heifer with water from Israel’s Gihon Spring and other ingredients, and sprinkle that water on members of the priesthood and the workers and tools for the temple. The ceremony needs to happen at the Mount of Olives, just like it did in the Bible.

 

According to The Jerusalem Post, the red heifer appears in a portion of the Book of Numbers 19:3 that reads “This is the ritual law that God has commanded: Instruct the Israelite people to bring you a red cow without blemish, in which there is no defect and on which no yoke has been laid.” The water and ash mixture is supposed to remove impurities from touching a corpse.

 

Such a ceremony has likely never taken place, Stinson believes.

 

“I don’t think the Jewish fathers, they haven’t done this in 2,000 years,” Stinson said. “I’ve never done it. They’ve never done it.”

So, after all this time, they’ve finally acquired their special spotless red cow. And Passover 2024, which falls towards the end of April, is the special time for this peculiar ceremony which is supposed to hail the Third Temple (others, however, speak of Shavuot 2024, which corresponds to June).

Is this the strange messaging behind the number 40—that, after the tribulations (in a “conflict” that includes the supposed decapitation of children), there’ll be some kind of rebirth of the Jewish nation (that is, through the Third Temple), and what better symbol is there for them than… babies?

A baby is of course the very symbol of birth, following a very demanding test (pregnancy and childbirth), so this hoax regarding supposed decapitated babies acquires a new metaphysical meaning.

It makes sense, especially when you know that Benjamin Netanyahu is surrounded by hardcore religious ultra-Zionists who unapologetically embrace such a worldview, including Itamar Ben-Gvir, the Israeli National Security Minister.

We read in a Jewish Currents article from January, 2023:

On January 3rd, Israeli Minister of National Security Itamar Ben-Gvir visited the Temple Mount, or Haram-al Sharif, in Jerusalem. After years of intensified incursions by Israeli forces that have heightened tensions in the area, Ben-Gvir’s visit intended to send a message: He and his party of messianic religious nationalists hope to replace the Dome of the Rock with the Third Temple, and they were openly daring Palestinian protesters and resistance groups to stop him. In the days leading up to Ben-Gvir’s ascent to the Temple Mount, Hamas leadership in Gaza described Ben-Gvir’s impending visit as a “detonator” and vowed it would respond forcefully.

[…]

ORTHODOX RABBINICAL AUTHORITIES have long held that Jews are strictly forbidden from ascending to the Temple Mount. According to Jewish law, entering the site—which housed the Second Temple two millennia ago—requires a special purification ritual, washing with water mixed with the ashes of a red heifer, a type of cow not seen since the Temple’s destruction.

[…]

With the extreme right in power, the biggest test of the tension between its eschatological agenda and the imperatives of governance will come in April, when Passover and Ramadan coincide. For the last several years, this period has seen consistent Israeli incursions into the Temple Mount area aimed at curtailing Palestinian access to the site, which Palestinians have generally met with resistance. Temple Mount activists have also recently attempted to carry out the ancient ritual of the Passover sacrifice on the Temple Mount, but have always been thwarted by Israeli police; last year four men who planned to sacrifice a goat and incite fighting between Arabs and Jews were arrested. “Is Ben-Gvir, now as head of the police, going to stop them again? I think he would allow it to happen,” Inbari said. Meanwhile, the Temple Mount movement has made strides in religious preparations for a more robust Jewish return to the site. “Now, in Israel, there are red heifers,” Inbari said. According to a September 2022 report in the Jerusalem Post, a Christian rancher in Texas had sent five of these specially bred cattle to the Temple Institute to be raised for later use in the Temple purification ritual.

Allah knows best. It is astounding, though, to know that Zionists wish to brutalize the people of Islam in the name of a cow when we are aware of the accounts surrounding the Golden Calf or the fact that the longest surah (chapter) of the Noble Qur’an, Surat al-Baqarah (the second surah of the Qur’an), is named after an account involving a yellow cow and the stubbornness of some historical Jews; or even the fact that some of the Muslim Ummah’s most vocal enemies are cow-worshipers from a different religion.

The cow, associated with innocence (in its gaze) and purity (in its milk), has had its symbolism radically inverted as though the times of Dajjal (the antichrist/false messiah) will not merely be times of manifest falsehood but times of the truth being reversed and parodied.

I would like to just conclude by saying very clearly that I am in no way implying that the recent Palestinian attacks are themselves the product of some Israeli conspiracy. They may very well be a way for Palestinians to commemorate the 50 years of the Yom Kippur War (October 1973). However, the continued Israeli provocations, greatly intensified throughout these past few years, could also possibly have been meant to trigger some sort of drastic response in an attempt to bring about the eschatological and apocalyptic end-goals discussed here.

That being said, it is crucial that we never forget that nothing whatsoever happens without the will and permission of Allah. We must always bear this in mind and face the trials of this world with patience and endurance. Our ultimate reward lies in the hereafter, in sha’ Allah. Everyone is completely powerless before Allah, including every deluded tyrant and oppressor to ever step foot on this temporal earth. The time for their utter humiliation will surely come, and they will pay dearly for their crimes in the hereafter. May Allah assist our dear brothers and sisters in Palestine. Amin.
