Is Moshiach Coming This Year?

(Sunday, October 12th, 2008)

Apparently, the widely spread rumor of Moshiach’s impending arrival continues making its way around North America and has reached Eretz Yisrael.

Kol Chai Radio reported on Sunday morning that this question, along with many others, was posed to Tzfas Chief Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu Shlita, who was called upon to confirm the validity of the Moshiach timetable.

Rav Eliyahu Shlita explained that no one knows Moshiach’s timetable, but we do not that the Geula began some 100 years ago with the return of the Jews to Eretz Yisrael, the founding of the State and the return of Torah study to the Holy Land.

    We must believe that moshiach IS coming TODAY, even if the gadol hador said he’s coming tomorrow.
    I don’t know who this Rabbi of Tzfas is, but that Moshiach’s coming began when Jews started going back to Israel 100 years ago, doesn’t sound like “Yeshiva World Material” at all.
