Yet another story whereby following Hashem\u2019s will, a disaster was averted:<\/i><\/p>\n<p>Three weeks ago a group of residents came from Bnei Brak to Kibbutz Sufa in order to harvest wheat for Pesach. They harvest the wheat every summer when the sun beats down on the fields, thoroughly drying the wheat. The wheat is then stored until the winter when they start the production and baking of matzos.<\/p>\n<p><b>Aharon Samet<\/b>, owner of the \u201cSamet\u201d factory producing \u201ctzitzis\u201d fringes, is the Badatz community supervisor for the wheat harvest. On a radio program today with Rabbi Moshe Ben Lulu, Samet told the story of the great miracle which occurred for the people of Israel thanks to this year\u2019s wheat harvest.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis year we are getting ready for the Shmitta agricultural sabbatical year, so this summer we harvested wheat grain for two years. We searched the whole country, looking for wheat which was sown late in the season and needed rain which fell late. At Kibbutz Sufa right next to the Gaza border we found an entire field sown in mid-January, which was considered very unusual, so we found 2000 acres of green wheat which was just right for us, \u201csaid Samet.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe harvested the wheat,\u201d said Samet, \u201cand we ran into military police, as well as undercover and regular police who came to check out who we were.\u201d The Gaza air campaign was already underway, and Samet and his colleagues saw the smoke clouds over Gaza, and heard the sirens while they were busy harvesting and transferring the wheat to trucks and moving them towards the cleaning plant near Masmiya for cleaning the wheat, fumigating and tithing it.<\/p>\n<p>Two days later 13 terrorists came from Gaza out from the tunnel which opened into the fields near Sufa. The terrorists had been planning a big attack, and had been counting on hiding among Sufa\u2019s giant wheat field\u2013which the matzah makers had just chopped down in its entirety. The terrorists couldn\u2019t understand how their camouflage had disappeared.<\/p>\n<p>The empty field enabled military observers to easily spot and identify the terrorists and open fire on them. Many Jewish lives were thus saved by the grace of Heaven.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Miracles in Israel with Hamaz\/Gaza War in 2014 The God of the Bible, who performed miracles for Israel in ancient times, is still performing miracles in Israel today.
