Rabbi Josiah Pinto, father of the Jewish Community Tribunal in Morocco, head of the Shuba Israel Institutions in Ashdod and the United States, who in 2012 was ranked seventh on the list of richest rabbis in Israel and convicted in 2015 and served a year in prison in Israel for bribing and disrupting court proceedings, claims verses The book of Ezekiel foretells the spread of the Corona virus (Cubid-19) and that he announced the coming of the virus just days before it began to spread in China.

In early January of this year, Rabbi Pinto announced that he had a devastating outlook for "an imminent global catastrophe" but no specific touch on the virus. He told his followers: "Everyone knows I'm very careful about what I say. On Saturday I had no simple vision at all. There's going to be a huge shock in the world, the size of a world leader's assassination or terrorist attacks on September 11. It will be on a very large scale and will come on the go "All the Jews must gather and grow up, pray, and repent. The world is going to be a disaster that will be recorded in history books as one of the worst in the last few centuries. It will start in a few days. We must start trying now to 'sweeten the sentence'." Last week, Rabbi Pinto declared that his vision had touched the Corona virus.

More on:

Rabbi Pinto claims it will be "the biggest global disaster that will lead to difficult times." He said: "We must be prepared. What is happening in China is developing into a global catastrophe and its results will reach almost every corner of the globe. It will soon become clear to everyone. I am not trying to scare anyone. I am just telling the truth." He added: "Since the outbreak of tens of thousands in China, millions have been held in quarantine for several weeks. Those who do not die from the disease are dying of starvation. Soon the food supply will run out and security forces will realize they are also in quarantine and will try to save themselves."

To substantiate his claims, Pinto pointed to a passage in the book of Ezekiel in which God pledged to "pour out his wrath upon China." In Ezekiel Chapter L, verses 2: 7, it reads: "I poured out my fury, upon China from the stronghold of Egypt; and I knew, many lo and behold, and I gave fire, in Egypt - sand shall begin (shall) China, and shall not be ravaged; The rabbi urges everyone to "pray for world peace, light candles and ask for God's forgiveness." He added: "We must pray as hard for salvation as we never did and repent."

Rabbi Pinto also argues that the world may suffer economic collapse because of its dependence on China, "China's world economy is based, but China is on the verge of collapse. All stores selling Chinese products will close. China will no longer be as we know it. China will be in complete closure. " He also hinted at theories that China does not tell the whole truth about the number of people infected with the virus - in part because of reports of hundreds of bodies being burned daily in Wuhan. The rabbi said: "We are talking about catastrophe at the level of the Holocaust. Very soon people will begin to understand that there is someone who is hiding so much information from the public, including how the government is locking people in their homes. We are entering the most difficult period the world is experiencing."

Was the Corona also predicted in the New Testament?

And what about us?

The rabbi has a comforting message to the Israelis that we will be better able to deal with the effects of the virus than other countries: "Every nation has its superior angel, who is responsible for what happens to it, for better or worse. When the angels fight, there are wars on earth between those nations. A Jew who must travel abroad must read the passages in the Torah about the wanderings of the Jews in the desert You must also study the passages in the Torah which deal with incense in the tabernacle, as it was a protection against diseases, but these passages must be studied only during the daytime.
