Presidents, rain and wind

An act in the years before God stopped the rain, and not a single drop of rain fell in the entire Holy Land until after Tebat. Even after the regular fasts and after the prayers and supplications and prostrations at all the graves of the righteous, they were not answered by heaven. So he sent the pharaoh to the Jews to pray for the rain, and they replied the same saying: If he would allow the pharaoh to enter the cave of Machpelah in Hebron, and plead their pleas before our ancestors who lie there, there is no doubt that the rain will not be late in coming.

Send a message to the great Hakadi in Damascus, because in his hand lies the key to the cave, that he will send to Stamboul-Kushta to the Sultan, that he will give permission to the Jews to enter the cave of the Machpelah to petition the rain, so that they will not die of hunger.

So the Qadi thought in his mind, isn't it until a license comes from the Sultan that time will be delayed and the autumn days will pass, and what is the point of coming to pray for the rain after the time? He immediately sent Al Faha the key, which he would immediately allow the Jews to enter the cave. So the Jews chose ten people, students of God-fearing sages in practical Kabbalah, and they went to Hebron and entered the cave and descended five grams of virtue, and said the first book of Psalms, with great intent and in a bitter voice.

And then they sent the sun to see if the sky darkened with thickets. And he went and returned to them saying: The sun still shines like a summer day. And they descended another five degrees and said a second book like the first book. And they sent to see, and he came and said: The sun is still on the earth. And they descended another five degrees and said book three - and sent to see. Then the sun returned and told them, the sky had already darkened thickly and the rain had begun to fall.

They immediately left the intention of the rain to turn to the intention of redemption, and almost a moment before they started to aim, a storm wind suddenly came from the cave with a great noise and pushed them outward with great force at the moment. Then they realized that the time had not come to attack Israel and that the end must not be postponed, but a great fear fell upon them and their cranks tightened.

And they went and came to Jerusalem for peace, and sowed that year and found God's blessing in all their actions.
