    why would moshiach be someone who is alive? he will teach torah to moshe rabainu and the avos, who alive today is eligible for that?

    @yserbius #motzi shem ra, choshed bichsharim.
    if someone beleives the rebbe is alive sitting in his chair then what? which one of the 13 ikrim does this contradict. (learn igeres hatshuvah (tanya) #27, sefer chassidim about rebbi, gemarah kesubos 103 i think)

    thats my point. people who never learned chassidus say that. other rebbes were against certain things in chabad for example voting in israel, satmer is against, so they are against lubavitch and ponovitch and many others. as well as many other examples. only one famous rosh yeshiva, was against everything chabad did and does.

    litvaks understand moshiach (and judaism) very gashmiusdik. a king will get up – maybe natanyahu – get rid of all the arabs from yerushalayim and eretz yisroel, build the bais hamikdash, bring all yidden to israel and they will learn gemara. chassidus explains much deeper, what a king really is, the giluy elokus that will be then, what a bais hamikdash is bepnimius, etc

    i think every chabadsker loves rav shach and all misnagdim. that dosent mean i need to follow him, or accept was he said, or think he was a tzadik (al pi tanya, obviously him and every other jew is a tzadim – veamach kulom tzadikim)

    @ avira – so? ok the rebbe printed on the parsha, the rebbe is entitled to do different. (btw the rebbe asked his father in law the frierdiker rebbe why he dosent speak ideas in niglah, and he said its not his mission in the world, so apparently the rebbe wanted to do it this way even though he could have printed on rambam and shas and maybe attracted more litvaks (i doubt it, cuz i don’t believe thats the issue misnagdim have). there is a maase the alter rebbe said if he would have taken out certain world of tanya he would have another 100,000 chasidim, but chassidus demands emes.
    im just saying that anyone honest to looks into the rebbe’s torah will see. (the rebbe is the only gadol that thousends of hours of his life is on video and audio, and it cant be denied his greatness.
    the baba sali wrote to the rebbe the following (you can see it in non chabad sources)
    לכבוד קודש הקודשים, עמוד העולם, אור ישראל ותורתו, שלא קם כמותו, שר התורה והוראה, אהוב בשמים ובארץ, מורנו ורבינו הרב מנחם מענדל מליובאוויטש, הנני עבדך הקטן ישראל,
    עליתי ממרוקו לארץ ישראל, ואנשים כאן לא נתנוני השב רוחי, באים אלי בכל שעות היום והלילה, ונבצר ממני לעבוד את ה’ כאשר היתה באומנה עימי, ימים ולילות שלא ביטלתי מן התורה רגע אחד.
    ועתה נפשי בשאלתי אם אוכל לבוא אליך לארצות הברית לגור על ידך בקרבת מקום, ואסתר מעיני כל איש.
    קיבלתי עלי שמה שיורני מורנו הרב אעשה, כיון שהוא עמד העולם, וכך הכריזו עליו בשמים”.
    and if there is no misnagdim today, great, that’s what the rebbe said, baruch hashem

    so the chofetz chayim promoted ahavas yisroel and being carefull about lashon hara. we should all be more carefull in that. yes chabad believes that hashem created the world to have a dirah bitachtonim, which we accomplish by every mitzvah we do, it will be completed when moshiach comes – see tanya perekim 36-37. actually this idea is the most in line with doing mitzvos only to fullfill the ratzon of hashem. too deep to explain. learn hemshach yom tov shel rosh hashana 5666 to understand at length (close to 1 thousend pages) or at least the first 100 pages or so to get an idea. one point, all the other reasons it says in gemara, medrash, zohar, are all reasons that are intellectual, נתאוה הקב”ה להיות לו דירה בתחתונים is only because hashem was נתאוה. there is no reason why hashem desires this. and no gain either to hashem or us. only hashem desires.

    there is a place in torah it says its a mitzvah to hate someone – someone who sees his freind do an avaira, now in tanya perek 32, the alter rebbe explains a bit certain conditions for this, and says its also a mitzvah to love him.
    sinas chinam means to hate someone for any other “valid” reason besides if you yourself saw him do the avaira etc with all the conditions

    its funny, if the alter rebbe didm’t write the shulchan aruch, the misnagdim probobly would have said today that he wasn”t a talmid chacham, like some might say about the other chabad rebbe’s. the rogotchover gaon once spoke about the rebbe maharash that he was a great gaon, someone asked him how does he know being that he didn’t speak or print much niglah? the rogetchover answered that he can see from his maamarim chassidus. maybe others should follow his example, look at a maamer of the rebbe or previous chabad rabbaim, although its not a pilpul on a tosfos, but in one sefer maamarim is quoted from all over shas, rishonim, achronim. all medrashim, tons of sifrai kabala etc. thousends of m”m, seems like some are just blind. i dont understand how some can say such stupid things that about the rebbes.

    somehow every chabad topic turns to moshiach.
    b”h chabad taught the world to think about moshiach, i hope one day soon chabad’s love for every jew and acceptance, non judging of every jew will spread to the rest of the world, and we will great moshiach very soon.

    @yserbius: A very very Chareidi Rebbi? sounds like a person speaking lashon hara, apikorsos – the gemara says a apikores is someone who embarases a talmid chacham -, causing sinas chinam which the whole told was given to make shalom in the world. whats charidi about him?

    square root: If mashiach-from-the-dead really is possible, then why did NOBODY in Chabad / Lubavich believe in mashiach-from-the-dead when Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneerson was still alive and healthy?
    actually before 3 tamuz many litvakts had that claim that moshiach cant be someone alive today cuz of the yeridas hadoros, moshiach must be from the dead. look in yated from those years, or Wikipedia.
    but ok so you have a good question? now what? anyway before Lubavitch said the rebbe is moshiach, the world didn’t speak much about it

    people kept on coming up with more and more things to attack chassidim with, first it was we want moshiach now, then how can chabad say their rebbe is moshiach (before 3 tamuz) , then after 3 tamuz it was how can moshiach be from the dead. just another accuse.
    it seems some litvaks dont are scared of moshiach ?? dont know!!

    @yeshivaguy 45. its not a machlokes, the gemara is just saying “”If Moshiach is from those who are alive now, [then] surely he is Rabbeinu Hakadosh [Rabbi Yehuda HaNassi], who suffers sicknesses and is an absolute saint . . . If he is from those who have already died, [then] he is Daniel, the delightful one, who was condemned to suffer in the lions’ den and was an absolute saint” (rashi)

    i think from being around, the litvaks dont talk about it beetween themselves, but when they bump into chabad in camps or vacations, they – the teenagers and kids attack the chabad kids or teenagers, maybe they come back to school and mention to their friends what happened. b”h today the typical litvak respects chabad,
    but just to mention, a regular litvak is not taught in school about chabad, so they just hear random stuf from their friends like they do kiruv, and mivtzoim, many young ones think that the chabad houses are there for them to have a minyan when they go on vecation.
    its like in chabad we are not toaght about their gadol hador and many in chabad never heard of alot of things by them and may think its strang or even have things about them twisted.

    so i would assume most non chabadniks never learned too much about yechida haklalis and what it has to do with moshiach, rebbe, chassidus. you can learn about it in קונטרס ענינה של תורת החסידות. there you can also learn about what chassidus is.
    another point people should realize is that when they see a chabadnik with a yechi yalmuka, and ask him if the rebbe is alive, well its a big chance he will say yes…… – his point is just go fly a kite

    i believe the rebbe had the neshama of yechida haklolis and was the moshiach of the generation, now he can still be, but i believe there is someone alive today who can be moshiach. i beleive this is the comen belief in chabad meshichist which i have no clue how big this group is

    you can see it on otzar hachachma in the sefer ביקור שיקאגו which is the sichos the frierdike rebbe said in chicago in 5702 page 21
    you can find ספר השיחות תשב there also but youll need to buy a subscription to see past the first 100 pages i don’t know why Hebrew books doesn’t have it.
    (btw now you can attack me for writing 100 and not 150)
    anyways i dont even know what were arguing about anymore. i just brought this up to point out – like even you just wrote – that the misnagdim were against the idea of “A major issue was the replacement or addition to the talmid chochom as the only leadership position of klal yisroel, with someone whose chief activities and notoriety was in the area of avodah and tzidkus. While integral to yiddishkeit, the idea of a leader being defined as a leader by anything else besides torah was objectionable.”
    i was pointing out that today this is what we do in chabad, we have out talmid chachom – the rebbe – (anyone honest who looked into the rebbe knows he was a גאון עולם) and we give him major respect.

    sorry for your “misunderstanding” (i hope). i meant the zohar that says that techiyas hamasim, will be later, did you ever hear of this zohar honestly? can you bring me this zohar or another makor about when techiyas hamasim will be? i was just bringing out how some people on this forum dont know anything in this sugya, very clear.
    the complaints are getting stupider and stupider. in chabad we have a clear derech on every aspect of life printed in sifrai chassidus, obviously we also have rabbonim, roshai yeshivos, mashpiim to answer questions. i wish we would have a living rebbe, but we cant sprinkel watar on someone to make him what a rebbe is – a neshima that is בבחינת ראש – tanya.
    ok so litvaks also have a derech, im happy to hear.

    the idea of that misnagdim had those complaints, you can read about in sefer hasichos 5702, the debate in minsk, yes chabad sources, btw just find me letters etc from the above sources you wanted who write against chassidim at all maybe if you find letters from the time of the baal shem tov, you’ll find these reasons too. what do you claim the hisnagdus was all about?
    anyway that was such a side point. but as i see, misnagdim just catch onto anything to harras chabad simple. (btw its basi ligani 5723 not 5729, typo)

    yserbius please tell me about this machlokes when techiyas hamasim will be.
    ראה יומא ה,ב, based on that gemara some explain that tzadikim will have techiyas hamasim right when moshiach comes, but even without that: everyone agrees that there will be techiyas hamasim, can someone explain to me what is the sevara that moshiach cant be from the masim?
    even according to the zohar (which probobly only chabad heard of) that techiyas hamasim will be later, explain to me the simple reason for it. if you cant explain it to me, then learn לקוטי שיחות חלק כז בחוקתי.

    again my point: the gemara says moshiach can be from the dead (according to one pirush in rashi)
    also the abarbenel, sdai chemed, zohar. find me one sourse that says moshiach can not be from the dead!
    (the point i was saying from rambam is that you cant bring a proof because he dosent mention techiyas hamasim there either, so will you say the rambam dosent hold of it?! (btw in hilchos teshuvah the raavad mentioned this) so obviously you didin’t learn this sugya at all.)
    so lets say the rambam holds moshiach can not be from the dead, so its a machlokes with the abarbenel, sdai chamed, zohar and rashi.
    who mentions that believing moshiach from the dead is kefira? and if you say that, youre also saying that the above opinions are kofrim c”v! simple.

    avaira, the point i was referring to in tanya was to explain what a tzadik is. perek bais explains the different levels of neshamos, a talmid chachon is a neshama diatzilus, if you want to understand a little what is means, look in the chabad biurim, or basi ligani 5729, or just take the words and have no clue what is means, 29 also takls about what a tzadik is.
    keser shem tov was the first sefer printed of the teachings of the baal shem tov btw, you should learn the whole thing before criticize chabad, cuz youll see, its all there.

    avira, according to your answer, why cant moshiach be one of the people which will have techiyas hamasim? also why dosent the rambam mention it at all there? basicly seems like you never learned the sugya, anything you guys call “hashkafa” you just make up bologna, dont bother learning agada, medrash, etc.
    ya again because you didn’t understand what i was trying to bring out, you call the whole chabad kofrim?!
    “moshiach coming from the dead is a chidush” why? answer simply: you said there are 2 mekoros that mention it, how many say it cant be? what about techiyas hamasim? according to you its not even a chidush in maseh braishis!

    avaira: “Plus the fact that in 2,000 years of seforim, the messianics can only find 2 mentions of even the concept of moshiach from the maysim, shows how beyond the pale the idea is.”
    how many times can you find in seforim that moshiach needs to be alive before moshiach comes? and that someone who says moshiach can come from the dead is an apikores?
    the rambam? how can the rambam say
    אל יעלה על הלב שבימות המשיח יבטל דבר ממנהגו של עולם או יהיה שם חידוש במעשה בראשית אלא עולם כמנהגו נוהג ….. אמרו חכמים אין בין העולם הזה לימות המשיח אלא שיעבוד מלכיות בלבד.
    what about techiyas hamasim? its not a chidush in masai birashis?
    so in chabad we learn about moshiach in depth and it comes out that in hilchos milachim basiclly the rambam is explaining the geder of moshiach al pi halacha, in a matzav of lo zachu, but in a motzav of zachu, it can be different.
    if you dont like this answer, so you have another one? show how much you know about this sugya!
    dont just take lines of a sugya you never spent time learning!
    i only said “just learn chassidus” about people having attacks on chassidus, i wouldn’t attack a line in a medicine book lihavdil, cuz i never learned medicine and have no clue the terms and how it works. . anyone with a brain understands what i mean. stupid argument.
    im very proud the less i know about other gedolim, i have one rebbe that’s enough, i try to follow his teachings, what i do realize on this forum is that alot of litvaks dont have a clear derech – they take one thing from this gadol, another thing from another gadol etc. i.e. r’ shach was against the way most litvaks spent weeks on a blatt gemara (מכתבים ומאמרים) reb moshe was also. many more examples.

    yserbius: 1) whatever stupid argument, but you can just say the rebbes maamarim and sichos are explanations on gemera, medrash, zohar.
    2) ok, i dont understand the issue, but that’s defiantly how i treat the rebbes words. im thankful to hashem to (try to) be his chasid. in fact in the past yrs someone put out kuntrasim titled ומדייק בהמאמר, and they are incredible to see, he writes down the maamer exactly from the recording, and shows how every word even letter has a makor, even when the rebbe corrected himself there were 2 nuschaos etc, really fascinating. you can search on google to see it.

    so now i remember “The Rosh Yeshiva of The Hildesheimer Seminar”, i heard about it recently after reading the book “turning judaism outward” he mentions the story that the rebbe needed to get a rabbinical degree from there to get into berlin, so the rebbe told him he can test him on any sefer in his library, r hildesheimer gave the rebbe a sefer he himself wrote recently to study, and the rebbe came back a few days later to get tested.
    i focus more on the rebbe’s maamarim and sichos then on the story’s. in fact it says in the above book, that the rebbe only mentioned once publicly by a farbrengen anything about the university. i have nothing against rav hirsh, chas vishalom. my derech is chassidus chabad, (b”h i enjoy this derech, i dont think there is anything else i need,) and there are hundreds of sifrai chassidus chabad to keep me busy for many yrs to come.
    “If the shoe fits….” thats my point that someone decided that moshiach cant come from the dead even though its a clear gemara, abarbenel, sdai chemed etc. or other things and storys about what some chabad chassidim do that are just bologna, once you beleive the bologna, that justifies all the lashon hara etc.

    btw for the peaple complaining chabad learns too much chassidus and sichos and not gemara
    1) litvaks do the smae thing, they focus on r chaim, reb baruch ber, just learn the gemarah and rishonim!
    2) so you have an issue that be look at our rebbe with too much respect, 1) its a clear mishnah מורא רבך כמורא שמים, כל המהרהר אחר רבו כמהרהר אחרי שכינה. many more, 2) one of the big issues the original misnagdim had with chassidus, was that the baal shem tov said that even tzadikim need to do teshuvah, they shouldnt be happy with their level of serving hashem, and that he was mikarev simple yidden, he sent his students – tzadikim to learn about ענוה and other middos tovos from simple jews. just saying, cuz now you say we give too much kavod to a real talmid chacham. whatever its all excuses. learn החלצו תרנט.

    ולא אמרו חכמים לעולם יעסוק אדם בתורה ובמצות אפילו שלא לשמה אלא כשמקיים המצות שלומד בתורה רק שאינו לומד ומקיים לשם שמים אלא מיראת העונש בעולם הבא או אפילו בעולם הזה או מאהבת השכר לקבל פרס בעולם הבא או אפילו בעולם הזה עושר וכבוד שלמשמאילים בה הניתן מן השמים או אפילו ליקח עצמו כבוד וגדולה שיקראוהו רבי ויהיה ראש ישיבה
    just pointing out, whats שלא לשמה

    so some people have an issue:
    sinas chinam, lashon hara, motzi shem ra etc.
    so whats their solution? first be motzi shem ra that they are apikorsim, then that justifies being further motzi shem ra, lashon hara ..
    that works maybe to jusify yourself to your freind but to g-d?
    you should check what the baal shem tov says on נפרעין מן האדם מדעתו ושלא מדעתו,
    כי שמעתי בשם הבעל-שם-טוב: כי קודם כל גזר דין שבעולם חס ושלום, מאספין כל העולם אם מסכימין להדין ההוא, ואף את האיש בעצמו שנגזר עליו הדין חס ושלום, שואלין אותו אם הוא מסכים, אזי נגמר הדין חס ושלום, והענין, כי בודאי אם ישאל לו בפירוש על עצמו, בודאי יכחיש ויאמר שאין הדין כן, אך מטעין אותו, ושואלין אותו על כיוצא בו, והוא פוסק הדין, ואזי נגמר הדי

    as i wrote: litvaks should not be explaining to chabad what chassidus is, chabad learns chassidus for 3 hours a day part of seder yeshiva. that is thousends and thousends of hours over the yrs.
    no litvak should take one line of tanya or another sefer chassidus and tell chabad they are wrong.
    they can if they want, say that they beleive the whole chassidus movement is wrong, good for them.
    i couldn’t care less. (just anyone who learned some chassidus – enough to understand what they are learning – sees that they start having much more chayus in yiddishkiet, it reaveals deeper levels of their neshama)

    1) that’s exactly my point, for us in chabad we believe in our rabbaim, they are the אתפשטותא דמשה of the generation, neshama of atzilus or שמיטא הראשונה – this idea is explained in דרך מצותיך, bikitzur in perek 2 tanya, maamer באתי לגני תשכג. look also in לקו”ש חלק ד פרשת דברים. (some sources to start).
    apparently litvaks are against this whole idea of a rebbe, so why are you even criticizing us 1) you think you are the police men of the world? 2) some of you try to prove from tanya that we are wrong, thanks, go fly a kite, if you’re good at learning gemara, do that, don’t explain to us what it says in our chassidus, and what our rabbaim mean,
    (disclaimer: you should learn chassidus with an open mind, because it will reveal deeper levels of your neshama eventually)

    i havo issue saying that i misinterpreted the kuntres acharon,
    the problem is that you need to read past the first line, (if you can’t understand past there, then either 1) learn more chassidus till you understand, or 2) dont say opinions on something you dont know
    in chassidus this is a big sugya whats higher and whats the kavana, etzem, giluyim etc. mentions it in tanya many times, learn hemshech 5666 – around 1000 (yes one thousend) pages and come back.
    btw a quote from the kuntres acharon:
    אלא שידיעת המציאות מההשתלשלות, היא גם כן מצוה רמה ונשאה, ואדרבה – עולה על כולנה, כמו שכתוב: ״וידעת היום כו׳״, ״דע את אלקי אביך כו׳״, ומביאה ל״לב שלם״ כו׳, שהוא העיקר, והשגת המציאות הוא להפשיט מגשמיות כו
