Jerusalem Post—The most dangerous man in the Middle East?:

Yehudah Glick has a reputation as a radical redheaded rabblerouser, but since entering the Knesset he has confounded his critics with an often progressive agenda.

There is an extraordinary 55-second video on YouTube that shows Yehudah Glick praying on the Temple Mount. Filmed on July 17, 2014, it is extraordinary not because Glick was not arrested for praying – a strongly enforced prohibition for all Jews – but because of whom he is praying with, and what he is praying.

Four Muslims are sitting on chairs lined up along a wall on the eastern side of the Mount. They are praying. A fifth man standing on the right joins in.

“I saw a group there, and I saw they were not looking to harass us,” Glick, a Likud MK, tells The Jerusalem Report in the Knesset cafeteria in late November.

“They were different than the others who were yelling… they were not looking to use violence against us. They were sitting and praying. I said, ‘OK, I’m going to join them…’ Just like that.”

Glick sits on the empty chair in the middle of the row, which is how the YouTube video begins. The man to his immediate right, wearing the green fez, is blind. Even he can sense something is going on.

“Of course they knew who I was,” says Glick, fully aware of how easily recognizable he is with his carrot-colored hair and beard ‒ “a notorious figure for many Palestinian Jerusalemites throughout the years,” according to the news portal Middle East Eye.

“When I sat down and started praying, at first, they were shocked. Then they were so happy that I was joining with them,” which is evident by the wide grins across the row.

SnyderTalk Comment:

Establishment political leaders in Israel today, especially those on the left, regard Yehuda Glick as a hothead, a radical right-winger, and a nutjob.  He is anything but.

Glick takes Yahweh’s promises seriously.  So-called “settlers” in Israel do, too.  That’s what troubles Israel’s political leaders.

I long for the day when Israel’s political leaders wake up to the fact that Yahweh’s promises apply to all the Children of Israel, not just descendants of Judah.

“If My people who are called by My Name humble themselves and pray and seek My face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” (2 Chronicles 7: 14)

Change that Yahweh calls “good” begins in the hearts of believers—people who are recognizable because they are different.

We are different because we belong to Him and are called by His Name.  We are Yahweh’s people, His followers.

SnyderTalk Comment:

I took this video a few years ago.  It was after the assassination attempt on Glick’s life.  He had recovered fully and was  giving a video interview.

As you can see, I took this video in front of Hurva Synagogue in the Old City of Jerusalem.  You can’t see them, but I am sitting beside Glick’s security detail.  They travel with him to prevent another attempt on his life.  You can’t tell very easily that Glick is wearing a bulletproof vest, but he is.

Katie and I use a shortcut in the Old City to the Jewish Quarter.  Glick knows it, too.  As you can see, they are walking slowly.  Katie and I were behind them for a long way on very narrow streets before we were finally able to pass them.  We sat down in front of Hurva Synagogue because we knew Glick was heading that way, and I wanted to take this video.

Glick, the “settlers”, and other Israelis are part of a new awakening in Israel.  I long for the day when political leaders in Israel realize that the Promised Land belongs to all the Children of Israel, not just Judah.  Maybe Glick will be the one to open their eyes.

“The glory which You have given Me I have given to them, that they may be one, just as We are one; I in them and You in Me, that they may be perfected in unity, so that the world may know that You sent Me, and loved them, even as You have loved Me. Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world.” (John 17: 22-24)
