Morris Wolff | Joseph Hewes
In Morris Wolff, I have a very distinguished friend, who supports the reincarnation research presented on this web site. Morris also has been deeply involved in the case of Raoul Wallenberg, who helped save an estimated 100,000 Jews in Hungary during the Holocaust. In addition, Morris is himself a reincarnation case, in that he is identified as the reincarnation of Joseph Hewes, a Quaker Signer of the Declaration of Independence. In this lifetime, Morris was born into a Jewish family and as such, his case represents another reincarnation case in which religion has changed from one incarnation to another. It is hoped that cases such as these, and in particular the case of Barbro Karlen/Anne Frank, will prevent future Holocausts and events such as 9/11. Let me now introduce Morris in more detail.
Morris Wolff received his undergraduate degree from Amherst College, graduating with high honors. He then studied law at The Yale Law School. As an alumnus, Morris has become friends with another Yale graduate, former President Bill Clinton. After finishing his studies at Yale, Mr. Wolff was one of ten lawyers personally appointed by Robert F. Kennedy to serve under RFK in the Office of Legal Counsel (OLC). The current Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court, William Rehnquist, served in the OLC under Ronald Reagan, before advancing to the Supreme Court.
In his capacity as a lawyer in the OLC, Mr. Wolff had five one on one meetings with President John F. Kennedy. Mr. Wolff was involved in the creation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, personally authoring sections of Title 6 of the Act, which dealt with school integration. Highlighting his involvement in the civil rights movement, Mr. Wolff sat in the first three rows on the Washington Mall, when Martin Luther King, Jr., gave his “I Have a Dream" speech.
After completing his assignment in the US Attorney General’s Office, Mr. Wolff worked with Senator John Sherman Cooper on integration and civil rights legislation. He then worked for US Representative Richard S. Schweiker, later managing Schweiker’s successful campaign to win a seat in the US Senate. Mr. Schweiker later became the head of the Department of Health and Human Services, under President Ronald Reagan. Following his public service, Morris practiced law in Philadelphia and became a Professor of Law at the University of Pennsylvania.
On February 5, 1984, Morris Wolff filed a historic lawsuit in the US District Court of the District of Columbia, against the Soviet Union. In this suit, Mr. Wolff represented the family of Raoul Wallenberg, a Swedish diplomat who the United States solicited to save Jews in Hungary, during World War II. Funded by the United States, Wallenberg became a hero as he personally confronted Nazi leaders and threatened them with persecution as war criminals.
Sharon Klinder, a researcher of the Hungarian Holocaust, narrates the scene:
”In the Spring of 1944, Hitler's army had annihilated every significant Jewish community in Europe except for the 700,000 Jews that remained in Budapest, Hungary. Plans for the murder of these Jews were being formulated by the notorious Adolf Eichmann. Mass deportations took place daily and the neutral nations along with the Allies felt that the limited number of protection passes being issued was not enough. The search was on for someone to travel to Hungary, under Swedish diplomatic auspices, to intervene on behalf of the Jews.
In June 1944, thirty-two year old Swedish businessman, Raoul Gustav Wallenberg was appointed as Secretary of the Swedish Legation in Budapest.
Though Wallenberg had no prior diplomatic experience, he had the ability to persuade, and intimidate. Upon his arrival on July 8, 1944; 400,000 Jewish men women and children had already been deported to the death camps in the south of Poland; 230,000 remained. During his six months in Hungary's capitol he was responsible for the survival of 100,000 Jews. After the city was liberated by the Soviet Army in January 1945, Wallenberg was arrested by the Soviets and never heard from again.”
Morris Wolff won the suit on the behalf of the Wallenberg family for the false imprisonment of Raoul Wallenberg, though the Soviet Union never paid the award bestowed by the court. Morris has written a book regarding the trial entitled, Rescuing Wallenberg, which is pending publication. Morris also recently shared the stage with Swedish Ambassador Jan Eliason, who is the incoming President of the United Nations General Assembly. Mr. Eliason and Morris gave a presentation on Raoul Wallenberg at a Congressional event sponsored by US Congressman Tom Lantos and his wife Annette, who lost most of their extended family in the Holocaust.
Just as Morris Wolff has been an advocate for Raoul Wallenberg and has worked to attain Wallenberg’s freedom from Soviet imprisonment, Morris Wolff played a part in securing the freedom of the American Colonies from the British Empire. Morris Wolff has been identified to be the reincarnation of Joseph Hewes, a Signer of the Declaration of Independence from North Carolina, a past life match that Morris Wolff vigorously supports.
Joseph Hewes was born in 1730 outside of Princeton, New Jersey, where he endured a strict Quaker upbringing. In 1760, Hewes moved to Edenton, North Carolina, and set up a profitable mercantile and shipping firm. In addition to becoming a successful merchant, Hewes also found that he was a talented singer and he developed a love of dancing, activities that are also close to the heart of Morris Wolff. Hewes initially opposed independence from Britain but had an epiphany during a debate at the Continental Congress. John Adams described the scene:
“He started suddenly upright and lifting up both his hands up to heaven, as if he had been in a trance, cried out, ‘It is done! and I will abide by it’”
Joseph Hewes and John Adams worked together to establish the Continental Navy and it was Hewes who forwarded his friend, John Paul Johns, for a top command. Perhaps the time that Hewes and Adams spent together on the maritime committee explains the immediate friendship that arose when Morris Wolff and I met. At the time of our initial meeting, I immediately sensed that Morris was involved in the American Revolution. The past life match with Hewes was subsequently confirmed through Kevin Ryerson and Ahtun Re. I am grateful that Hewes and Adams, Morris and I, have reunited once again on behalf of a worthy cause.
