Avi K,
From searching elsewhere, it seems he is correct; as he says, it refers to Hashem’s oath of 1,000 years of galus, not the plural oaths that Klal Yisrael are bound by.
Besides, it’s brought liHalacha by gedolim and well after that 1,000 years elapsed. I read elsewhere that even Rav Ovadiah Yosef dismisses this by writing that they should read what is said about it in Vayoel Moshe.
He also answers Rabbi Aviner’s kuntreis as well, one of whose points is the one we just discussed.
Here too, the Three Oaths are certainly aggadah but they contain unique halachos. The poskim (though not the Shulchan Aruch, who only brings the most relevant laws) do quote them as halacha.”
There is actually a long list, far longer than what I have mentioned here.
Regarding Kol Dodi Dofek, how does any of this address the three oaths, much less “answer” them? We’re all still in Galus and this protection from Hashem is not less needed because of these “opportunities” granted. Miracles don’t condone anything.
There are explanations for all these, anyways. But #5 is clearly wrong.
“…due to the birth of the State of Israel; the fact that Jews had a position of power and a homeland meant that Jewish blood could no longer be spilt freely and without fear of retribution.”
Israel is the laughing-stock of the nations and is the ultimate “galus Jew”.
