The New World
The Rebbe discusses Columbus’s discovery of America
Disc 80, Program 317
Event Date: 12 Tammuz 5744 - July 12, 1984
Although Columbus “discovered” America, obviously these lands and their inhabitants existed before he arrived. They were just unknown to those living on the other side of the globe. The truth is, the indigenous American tribes, and all the plants and animals discovered on the American continent—they too originated in the “Old World.” Torah states that the first humans, and all plant and animal life, were created in the Garden of Eden. Torah identifies this place as a region near the Euphrates and Tigris rivers, in the Eastern Hemisphere. “And from there, they were scattered upon the face of the entire earth.”This explains another phenomenon: In South America, they have found in many places ancient writing and symbols that closely resemble those in India and the Middle East. Even letters that remarkably resemble Hebrew! They’ve even discovered certain indigenous customs that predate the arrival of Columbus and other Europeans, which clearly resemble Torah law. Why? Because all mankind originates from the same place: the Garden of Eden. |
