The first thing i ...what will be in moshiach times?<br />The first thing i can say is that the present parasitic way of living will stop.<br />It will be similar to the jews in the desert. the manna will fall in some way and like then those who didnt deserve it will have a hard time getting it.<br />right and wrong will be properly deliniated. there wont be any problem with what it is.<br />the idea of the temple is not just to kill animals to be able to burn them or eat them. there are great kabalistic reasons for all of them which i dont claim to understand and dont believe those who say they do.<br />Like it says, in heaven the world is the opposite those who are down here are up there. it will be like heaven, here on earth then and people will get the surprise of their life of who is really worthy.<br />it says he will come on a donkey. no he wont be arriving in a cavalcade of cadillacs. he most likely similar to moses will be totally unknown beforehand.<br />it says he will be born on 9th of<br />av i think shabai zvi was. and there are special things we do to remember this.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-52513582214279964542010-07-19T11:23:06.867+03:002010-07-19T11:23:06.867+03:00(not G)
I agree with you. This is what I thought w...(not G)<br />I agree with you. This is what I thought when I read DovBear's post on the subject. Mashiah-time is by definition utopia. Therefore casting it as a Haredo-Stalinist-Gehinom (as suggested by the commenters there) is really not what it is about. It is about everyone having their own ideal reality dream and working towards it. <br /><br />Of course you could say that in the yemot hamashiah one and only of these utopic visions can be correct. However as you say, lets cross that bridge when we get to it.<br /><br />In the meantime keep working for that utopia. Which one?

What are you talking about?
And regardless ...Huh?<br /><br />What are you talking about?<br /><br />And regardless of how you feel about today's Rabbis (although many of them don't wear black hats or have superiority complexes (which is more than I can say for some commentators...)), perhaps you can help me with something.<br /><br />Where in my comment did you find the word "Rabbi"? Did you see the word 'Chaza"l'? Do you know who that refers to?<br /><br />And as long as you're searching, please find comments of mine which justify your allegation. I will remind you that I do not daven at BTYA (if you must know, I daven at Ohr Shalom; does RCS count as black hat or having a superiority complex?)<br /><br />I'll wait. <br /><br />I'll be waiting.Mikeagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15827275300296295639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20257999.post-14819801928518530102010-07-19T10:56:36.376+03:002010-07-19T10:56:36.376+03:00Mikeage,
