THE BAAL SHEM TOV, OR BESHT —  THE FOUNDER OF CHASIDISM — 
MET THE SOUL OF THE MESSIAH DURING AN ASCENT TO HEAVEN. 
THE BESHT ASKED HIM, "WHEN WILL THE MASTER COME?" 
THE MESSIAH ANSWERED, "WHEN YOUR WELLSPRINGS BREAK FORTH TO THE OUTSIDE!" 
(FROM A LETTER WRITTEN BY THE BESHT TO HIS BROTHER-IN-LAW ABOUT ONE OF HIS SOUL
ASCENTS)

The words from this song video are from Hoshea 2:20. They are about the
messianic rainbow covenant that is yet to come.

NEOHASID.ORG WAS LAUNCHED ON THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FIRST CHASIDIC
EGALITARIAN MINYAN, FOUNDED BY RABBI DAVID SEIDENBERG IN NYC IN 1995. ITS FIRST
AIM WAS TO HELP PEOPLE INTEGRATE CHASIDIC CUSTOMS, LEARNING, AND NUSACH INTO NEW
CONTEXTS. OVER TIME, NEOHASID HAS ADDED ECO-TORAH AND EARTH-CENTERED LITURGY, AS
WELL AS GENDER-LIBERATING LITURGY, TO ITS MISSION, AND NEOHASID.ORG WAS ALSO A
FOUNDING MEMBER OF THE GREEN HEVRA REPRESENTED AT MANY JEWISH ENVIRONMENTAL
EVENTS.
NEOHASID.ORG IS DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF MAIDI KATZ, WHO WAS A DEVOTED
PARTICIPANT IN THAT MINYAN.

for the land and the State of Israel, for democracy and for wise judges, for our
times. The third paragraph works as a prayer for the whole land in this time of
war. Here is a prayer for democracy and against tyranny, everywhere, with
Ukraine and the U.S. foremost in mind. It can be recited in the prayer against
minim in the Amidah. I also say it everytime I open my News feed app. This
prayer is based on the 2004 version of neohasid's voting prayer. Click here for
a PDF or here for a JPG.

Here are the lyrics to Shimshai's song video based on Hoshea 2:20:

V'kharati lahem brit bayom hahu im chayat hasadeh v’im of hashamayim v’remes
ha’adamah v’keshet v’cherev umilchamah eshbor min ha’aretz v’hishkavtim lavetach
    On that day, I will make a covenant for them with the beasts of the field
and with the birds of the skies, and all creatures that crawl on the Earth, and
bow and sword and war I will break from the land, so that they all will lay down
in safety.

Music by Shimshai with Assi Rose on accordion. You can listen to another version
of this song by Amen here!


"CHASIDIC-EGALITARIAN"?
