THE CABALA OF FREEDOM

Mike Wallace, the CBS reporter who became one of America’s best-known broadcast journalists as an interrogator of the famous and infamous on 60 Minutes, died on Saturday; he was 93.

The number 93 is the gematria of the word Magen/Shield, as in the six pointed star called: Magen Dovid/Shield of Dovid; the Cabala explains, the six points of the star correspond to the five limbs: arms, legs and sex plus the torso representing the six Medot/Measurements.

The space made in the center of the star is Malchut/Royalty representing the mouth and our ability to speak – the king rules through speech. Dovid, 3000 years ago, began the lineage that will eventually bring forth King Moshiach/Anointed who will bring true freedom to the world.

The journalist guards free speech by reporting the news in an unbiased manner; the unfettered ability for a society to speak openly is the most essential of freedoms because speaking is what separates the animal from the human being who is able to articulate thoughts into words.

King Dovid once asked God to reveal the date of his death but God refused; yet God did tell Dovid he would die on the Shabbot. Mike Wallace also died on the Shabbot, the first day of Passover when the Jewish People celebrate freedom – an appropriate time for a freedom watcher.
