Show Notes

Episode Forty-Seven, entitled 'MOSHIACH: A NEED OR LUXURY?' further demonstrates the fallacy of the thinking that after more than 1,950 of unanswered prayers for The Geula (the Torah-true Jewish Messianic Redemption) it might be best cease and desist, rather than continuously pestering G-d. This concludes what we began in the immediate past Episode "TIME TO GIVE IT UP." The seeming "proof" drawn from the Talmud stating that excessive prayerful entreaty can make G-d look harsh and us seem petty, is entirely misguided, as even a casual read of the very next sentence illustrates its inapplicability. In fact, the Rebbe uses a number of compelling proofs from Sefer Tehillim, and our Siddur to demonstrate the veracity of the polar opposite. In completing the said thesis, the Rebbe directs us to the clearly stated defining essence of the obligation for [Daily] Prayer itself. Once Tefillah is defined, the conclusion is inescapable. Our incessant entreaty for Moshiach's coming is not only permitted, but in fact, something we are all obligated to continue asking for until Hashem grants us the moment, we're all waiting for! This Episode comprising the Forty-seventh segment of an ongoing study series on The Geula, our final Redemption referred to as the Coming of Moshiach (Messiah) is dedicated to the Zechut of HaRav Dovid ben Sara Sasha, may G-d grant him vitality and length of days, Amen!
