The Greeks Have Gathered Against Me

" The Greeks Have Gathered Against Me"

These words are taken from the 6th paragraph of the Ma'oz Tzur Chanukah Hymn. The Chanukah festival celebrates the miraculous military victory of the Maccabees over the Seleucid/Greek army.

It is intriguing that the variants of the Sars Cov 2 Fauci Bioweapon are being named after letters of the Greek Alphabet.In the days of the Hasmoneans there was an effort to stamp out Monotheism and coerce the public to accept a "new normal" of idol worship, and Hellenistic culture including sexual immorality. Today the Covid Bioweapon is being used to accomplish the same thing.

It is appropriate to recall the words of the prayer commemorating the Chanukkah miracle that is said 3 times a day, during the 8 days of Chanukah.

  In the days of Matityahu, the son of Yochanan the High Priest, the Hasmonean and his sons, when the wicked Hellenic government rose up against Your people Israel to make them forget Your Torah and violate the decrees of Your will. But You, in Your abounding mercies, stood by them in the time of their distress. You waged their battles, defended their rights, and avenged the wrong done to them. You delivered the mighty into the hands of the weak, the many into the hands of the few, the impure into the hands of the pure, the wicked into the hands of the righteous, and the wanton sinners into the hands of those who occupy themselves with Your Torah. You made a great and holy name for Yourself in Your world, and effected a great deliverance and redemption for Your people Israel to this very day. Then Your children entered the shrine of Your House, cleansed Your Temple, purified Your Sanctuary, kindled lights in Your holy courtyards, and instituted these eight days of Chanukah to give thanks and praise to Your great Name.
