The Announcement Of The Redemption

Once Upon a Chossid | June 27, 2025

The Announcement Of The Redemption

At this time, as we stand immediately preceding the true and complete Redemption... as mentioned frequently of late, that already all conditions have been met and now there only has to be the actual Redemption.

It has been mentioned many times that a possible acronym of

"A great congregation will return here,"

to our holy land, "a land that the L-rd your G-d constantly observes; the eyes of the L-rd your G-d are on it from the beginning of the year until the end of the year."

Therefore,

also before the Redemption the children of Israel dwell in it in security, without fear from "the nations of the world [who] are in terror and turmoil" because "the kings of the nations of the world struggle with each other" since the Holy One, Blessed be He "says to them (to Israel), my children, do not be afraid, all that I have done I have done only for your sake... (and the subject is repeated in the Midrash) do not fear, the time of your Redemption has arrived,"

"the King Moshiach stands on the roof of the Beis HaMikdash [Holy Temple] and he proclaims to Israel, 'Humble ones, the time for your Redemption has arrived."

(From the talk of Shabbos Parshas Yisro, 18 Shvat, 5751)

  1. Yirmiyahu[Jeremiah] 31:7.
  2. Ekev11:12.
  3. [Because the land of Israel enjoys special Divine supervision. Translator's note.]
  4. Yalkut Shimoni Yeshayahu, remez499.

BESURAS HAGEULO

  1. [The Hebrew word "miyad" means immediately. It consists of three letters: Mem, Yud and Daled. Translator's note.]
  2. The well known holy letter of the Baal Shem Tov - Keser Shem Tov at the beginning and several places.
  3. It should be noted that "Menachem is his name" (Sanhedrin 98b).
  4. See Shmos RabbaChapter 2:4, 2:6. Zohar, vol. 1 253a. Sha'ar HaPesukim, the verses, Parshas Vayechi. Torah Or Mishpatim75b.

"MiYaD" is Moshe, Yisroel (the Baal Shem Tov) and Dovid, the king Moshiach. This means that the first generation, that of the giving of the Torah (the generation of Moshe) is bound up with the last generation (that of the Redemption through Dovid, the king Moshiach) by means of the revelation of Chassidus from the Baal Shem Tov and our Rebbeim and leaders who succeeded him. Thus when your wellsprings overflow, "the master will come," the king Moshiach.

One might say that, according to the meaning of the word "MiYaD" (immediately), the three letters are not connected with three different times (Moshe in his generation, Yisroel the Baal Shem Tov in his generation and Dovid the king Moshiach in his generation). Rather they all come together, actually simultaneous ("MiYaD" - immediately) in every generation and at all times. That the word "MiYaD" is also the acronym for "Moshe, Yehoshua, Doram [their generation]" all three in the same generation, alludes to this as well. One can also apply this to our generation. For in this same generation one has the revelation of all three: Mem (the first letter of Moshiach), Yud (the first letter of both names of my sainted father-in-law) and Daled (Doram). Combining [Mem] the Moshe of our generation (my sainted father-in-law, the leader of our generation) with the concept of [Yud] ten (tenth of Shvat), which also includes his revelation of the Torah of Chassidus (the wellsprings of the Baal Shem Tov), one has as well the revelation of the aspect of eleven, "the first Redeemer is the final Redeemer," Dovid King Moshiach.
