I recently posted the following in the middle of a longish reply to Chosid: “Please note, I am asking for sources that say that the REASON we perform mitzvos is to bring Mashiach”
I perhaps was not clear enough in what I wrote. What I should have written to be clearer is: Please note, I am asking for sources that say that OUR INTENTION in performing mitzvos should be to bring Mashiach.
