The Gemara (Pesachim 118:) says, "Moshiach will come either in a generation that is completely זכאי, worthy, or completely חייב, guilty." Obviously, we hope and pray that Moshiach will come in a completely worthy generation, but we wonder how this could occur. How can it be that Moshiach will arrive in our times when we will be totally זכאי, worthy? If Moshiach didn't come in the generations of the Tana'im and Amoraim, Rishonim and Acharonim, how can we expect Moshiach to arrive in our generation in the zechus of our righteousness?
