Reply To: Is it wrong to secretly not want moshiach to come

“Suppose you ask your son to clean his room before dinner, and he suddenly starts smashing things, scattering papers and laundry everywhere, and rips his sheets off his bed. You say, “Why are you doing that?! That’s the opposite of what I asked you to do!” He says, So I can earn more reward by cleaning up a bigger mess!”

This is not a good example because its a destructive act.

A better example would be that not only does he clean his room, but he cleans the entire house, in order to get more reward. And then he goes and cleans his grandparents house. And his neighbor’s house. Secretly hoping dinner time is pushed off until later so he has more time to clean the most houses and get the most reward in the short span of “cleaning time” there is etc….
