1st one i wasnt so clear when i brought the abarbanel but i explained it in the next one

2 ME “if moshiach is from the dead it doeasnt necessarily mean only doniel – look in abarbanel thst i quoted”
RSO “And as to the Abarbanel which you miscite (I made that word up because I think it will get a lot of usage when it comes to arguing with lubavichers): after explaining that the Mishnah davka says that שמו של משיח was created on erev Shabbos, and not Moshiach himself, as it is referring to various characteristics of Moshiach, he then cites the Gemoro in Sanhedrin 98b where the talmidim cited the names of Moshiach as similar to that of their rebbes:
ואין ספק שכל אחד מהחכמים האלה היה דורש טוב לעצמו ומיחס שם המשיח כשמו כי דבי ר’ שילא קראוהו שילה בשם רבם…

Once again, HE DOES NOT WRITE that students should believe their rebbes are Moshiach, and he does not even say that those students did believe as much. (And again, if those talmidim would have believed as much it would NOT have been based on lubavich-like manufactured fictitious characteristics.)”

3. ME “But you only had a problem with the part that it can be from the dead which is why I quoted the abarbanel only for that reason”
RSO “I saw that the Abarbanel did NOT say that the talmidim claimed their rebbes were Moshiach.

remind me again what were arguing on?
