Here is an English translation of a part of Igeres Taimon that is important to the conversation
“prophecy will return to Israel in the year 4976 after Creation (1216 CE). Undoubtedly, the return of prophecy will be a portent of the coming of the anointed one.”
So, are you proposing, per the above that we have had prophecy and have been living in the Messianic Era for the last 800 years now?
No. I don’t think so. You cherry picked a section of Igeres Taimon that suited your purposes.”
But, here is the thing. I am open to the return of Prophecy before Moshiach comes.
Did the last Lubavicher Rebbe openly claim that he was speaking as a Prophet of Hashem? Because, you know, that’s what all the established Prophets did. Then we can move on to the verification process because, unfortunately, lots of none-prophets also did.
