Chabad shlucha. Was mordechai hayehudi great enough to be considered the Moshe of his generation? If he was, was he the potential moshiach? It couldn’t because he was a descendant of
Shaul hamelech not Dovid . Not everything you learn in midrash needs to be taken literally. Dovid hamelech is also considered a moshiach. We say in kedushah ofnshabos davenong ol yeday Dovid moshiach tzodkecho. Moshiach is first and foremost a halachik status but it’s also a generic term.
