Am I Waiting For Moshiach?
B”H We're just coming out of Tisha B'Av, when we mourned for the Temple. Today, we can shift from mourning to yearning — to anticipation, to active participation in the rebuilding of said Temple and in Moshiach's coming. And to help us step fully into that mindset, I'm joined by Rabbi Lawrence Hajioff, author of […] The post 443: Moshiach Is Not a Fringe Topic with Rabbi Lawrence Hajioff appeared first on Yael Trusch.

In this episode, we look at the basic challenge we have in understanding and relating to what the concept of Moshiach really means. One of the key concepts we have to understand is what does Shchina and Prophecy mean. Why don't we aspire to that lofty goal? Is this a mistake? We also discuss the issue of when it is proper for a person to take on lofty spiritual acts.

DEVARIM - NINE DAYSMaking It HappenWhat else could possibly happen for us to see Moshiach's arrival? We are standing at the end of a year of wonders, in which, alongside the deep pain, we touched the heavens day after day. In the last twelve months alone, many of our greatest arch-enemies have been eliminated or neutralized, many in an astonishingly wondrous fashion.The feeling was that G-d was shining His face upon us and that we were closer to redemption than ever before.But Moshiach didn't come, and we feel like we are on a rollercoaster, being flung and slammed wildly. Soldiers are still dying in Gaza, antisemitism is still rampaging across the world…so what is happening?If it hasn't come until now—what needs to happen for it to finally arrive?
After reviewing Parts 1, 2, 3 and 4, we conclude Rebbe Nachman's classic tale, which hints at the ingathering of the exiles and the imminent coming of Moshiach.
התוכן מסופר בגמ' (גיטין נו) שלאחרי שראה שאת הגזירה מלמעלה ש"הלבנון [ביהמ"ק] באדיר יפול" לא תתבטל, ביקש ר' יוחנן בן זכאי מאספסינוס "תן לי יבנה וחכמי'" – כ"תחליף" לביהמ"ק, וכמאחז"ל "משחרב ביהמ"ק אין לו להקב"ה אלא ד' אמות של הלכה", ויתירה מזו – זה מזרז את בנין ביהמ"ק. ונמצא שעוד לפני החורבן בפועל, הסכים הצד-שכנגד לביטול החורבן. דהנה, אע"פ שצריך לזכור שכללות ענין הגלות הוא עונש וצרה ומצוקה שאין כמוה ואי"ז מעמד-ומצב טבעי לבנ"י ח"ו, וצ"ל תמיד במצב של "נתאוו . . [ל]ימות המשיח" כאשר כל ישראל "ישיגו דעת בוראם" – אבל לא מספיק לקונן על הגלות בלבד אלא צריך לעשות הכל כדי לבטל את חושך הגלות, ע"י לימוד התורה וקיום המצוות. החידוש של ר' יוחנן בן זכאי הי' שהקדים ה"רפואה" ל"מכה", ע"י שקיבל את "יבנה וחכמי'", ה"ד' אמות של הלכה".ב' חלקים משיחת וא"ו תשרי ה'תש"מ ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=31-07-2025 Synopsis The Gemara states (Gittin 56b) that after Rabban Yochanan ben Zakai saw that the heavenly decree that, “the Levanon [the Beis Hamikdash] will fall by a mighty one” was going to be fulfilled, he asked Vespasian, “Give me Yavne and its Sages,” as a substitute for the Beis Hamikdash, as our Sages said, “Since the Beis Hamikdash was destroyed, the Holy One, blessed be He, has only the four cubits of halachah.” Since “Yavne and its Sages” hasten the rebuilding of the Beis Hamikdash, it emerges that even before the actual destruction, the opposing side had already agreed to the undoing of the destruction. Although one must always remember that the whole concept of exile is a punishment and unparalleled suffering and distress, and certainly exile is not the natural state of the Jewish people chas v'shalom and one must constantly “yearn… for the days of Moshiach,” when the entire Jewish people will “attain knowledge of their Creator” – but it is not enough to merely lament the exile: one must do everything in their power to nullify the darkness of the exile by studying Torah and performing mitzvos. Rabban Yochanan ben Zakkai's unique contribution was that he arranged the “remedy before the blow” by securing “Yavneh and its Sages,” the four cubits of halachah.2 excerpts from sichah of 6 Tishrei 5740 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=31-07-2025 לע"נ הרה"ח הר"ר יואל ב"ר רפאל נחמן הכהן קאהן ליום היארצייט שלו ו' מנחם אב. ת.נ.צ.ב.ה.נדבת הרה"ח ר' יוסף יצחק שי' פריז

Rabbi Ai How A Chossid Mourns The Rebbe changed the way we mourn — and maybe the way we wait for Moshiach too.(The 9 Days)
In a special chapter in Lessons in Tanya at the end of Chapter 36, we see the Strength and Light of the Torah building our generation's vessels for Moshiach's G-dly Revelation. The dew of resurrection and purpose of Am Yisrael's Torah received at Har Sinai is building an immersive experience for the end of days to reveal the Splendor of the Presence of Hashem...

"Sicha #174: *Parshas Matos-Maasei,* Chelek Chof Gimmul page 214. My body's experience and ability is the deepest expression of Hashem's power. Menachem Av - We bring our father comfort.This week's learning sponsored by 3 individuals!*Chaya Musha bas Devorah Leah* & *Henna Shomer*both in honor of their Yom Huledes - May this learning be a zchus for a shnas bracha, ad bli dai!!* Thank you for choosing these sichos as your birthday gift!Learning sponsored also by *Susan Shapiro* in honor of the yahrtzeit of her mother (my Safta!) *Basya bas Nessa*. May her neshama have an aliyah and endless nachas!_Want to get in on sponsoring? PM me!__*Sicha Summary Notes*_Ever had a moment where you were really *stuck* in your own challenge?In this month of Menachem Av, we comfort Hashem for the pain He is in.There are 2 dimensions of Hashem's pain of being in golus1. *Shchina is with the yidden in Golus.* When we experience our Geulah it is Hashem's Geulah. Our neshamos are always Godly, no choice there, but our bodies - that dont reflect godliness, those Hashem chose! When we are physically (body) in golus, so is Hashem.2. Like a king who said to his servants, if you are looking for me, *I am going to be next to my son.*What is deeper about this that is being added?Differentiation! Jewish Mothers - *we get it!* Where my kid is, that's where Ill be.*2 different situations*The father feels obvious cherishing of the child, bringing nachas! Warm fuzzy feeling, my delicious child, i'm with them! - neshama part of the yid, *nachas producer* , neshama is never affected by the golusRebbe adding! This is also true when it comes to the body. The body does NOT show Hashem. It looks just as coarse as other bodies. Mashal - if you are looking for me, I am going to be with my son. Ya this is my kid, i go with him everywhere he is at. *Hashem is with us in our tumah* . *Essential connection*Only in the Jewish Body (vs soul) do you see the connection of Hashems essence. I'm with my kid. Period.Hashem is ALWAYS with us. Menachem Av - Hashem is here as the father to his child.Level 1 nachas connection - *neshama experience*Level 2 essential connection - *body experience*Taking this even deeper...We also suffer loss, How can we comfort Hashem?The greatness of what the child can do > parentsLike a blue eyed child born from brown eyed parents, the child _reveals a recessive gene his parents have, but did not display._You have incredible power! Show up with all the emunah, all the positivity - WOW! This was always there in Hashem but not expressed until a Yid does this.We have the ability through our physical struggles, we are bringing out a koiach always there in Hashem - that had not yet been brought out.*All of us showing up in Mitzvos, Torah, we are bringing out Hashems “recessive DNA”. there is no such thing as a ME struggle - don't ever feel alone, you are Hashems essence being expressed*. Feel empowered! We can define the golus, tap into incredible koiach, Hashems essence pumping through us. Shift to new approach: Moshiach!"
התוכן שם הפרשה מטות-מסעי. "מטות" מורה תוקף וחיזוק, ו"מסעי" מורה על ההילוך והנסיעה בעילוי אחר עילוי, ועד שדרגה הקודמת נחשבת כמו "מצרים". וז"ש "אלה מסעי בנ"י אשר יצאו מארץ מצרים", שכ"ז שלא הגיעו עדיין לא"י לא יכלו לנוח ולהשאר במקומם, ועד שהרגישו דעדיין צריכים לצאת "מארץ מצרים"! וההוראה: ביחד עם העמידה בתוקף בנוגע לעניני תומ"צ, צריך להוסיף בעבודתו בעילוי אחר עילוי, עד שזוכים לגאולה האמיתית והשלימה, שאז תהיו כל העליות בקדושה גופא, כולל גם מצד העבודה דקו השמאל, מדת הגבורה, שעי"ז העלי' בקדושה היא בהתגברות הכי גדולה. ובזמן הגלות – זוהי עבודת התשובה שהיא העבודה עם קו השמאל, שמתבטא גם בזה שכל עבודתו הוא באופן ד"כפליים לתושי'", שהיא הכנה לגאולה, וזהו הקשר לשם החודש "מנחם-אב", שעיקר ה"שטורעם" וההתחלה הוא "מנחם" (אף שניתוסף לאח"ז), שבגימ' צמח דקאי על משיח. וע"י ההחלטות טובות בענינים אלו זוכים ל"מיד הן נגאלין", ומתחיל ה"מסע" "עם ענני שמיא" לעבר הירדן המערבי. משיחת אור לר"ח מנ"א ה'תשמ"ח ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=23-07-2025 Synopsis The name Matos signifies strength and firmness, while Masei signifies journeying and advancing from level to level, to the point that the previous level is considered like “Egypt.” This is why the verse says, “These are the journeys (in the plural) of the Jewish people who left the land of Egypt” – because as long as they hadn't yet reached Eretz Yisroel, they could not rest or remain in place, to the extent that they felt they still needed to leave “the land of Egypt.” The lesson is that alongside standing firmly in matters of Torah and mitzvos, one must also increase in his divine service, rising from level to level until meriting the true and complete Redemption, at which time all the elevations will be within holiness itself, including through the service associated with the left side, the attribute of Gevurah, which brings the utmost intensity to the elevation within holiness. During the time of exile, this is the service of teshuvah, the service of the left side, which is also expressed in the fact that all one's efforts are in a manner of “a double portion of wisdom,” which prepares for the Redemption. This is the connection to the name of the month, Menachem-Av, where the beginning and main focus is on the word “Menachem” (despite the fact that this part of the name was added later) whose numerical value “Tzemach,” which refers to Moshiach. And by making firm positive resolutions in these matters, we will merit that “they are immediately redeemed,” and the “journey” will begin “with heavenly clouds” toward the western side of the Jordan.Excerpt from sichah of Rosh Chodesh Menachem-Av 5748 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=23-07-2025 לזכות בנציון מאיר הלוי בן חי' שרה שי' וויינבוים ליום הולדת שלו כ"ז תמוזלשנת ברכה והצלחה, ואריכות ימים ושנים טובות
We Are the Miracle
Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Three Weeks and Moshiach What powerful psychological lessons do we learn from this period in dealing with our own setbacks and difficulties? How do we look at today's events in the Middle East through the lens of the Three Weeks? Are they a sign of the imminent redemption? After all the signs and promises that Moshiach is about to come, how do we avoid being skeptical that it will happen now? What did the Rebbe mean when he said that the birurim were completed? How do we receive and greet Moshiach? How to achieve geulah consciousness? Will the Third Temple be a physical structure or a spiritual state of consciousness? What does it mean that we are not “obligated to finish the job, but we are not free to abandon it” either? The Rebbe said: “do all you can.” What more can we do? Should we be trying any “trick” methods to bring the geulah? Should we be quitting our jobs and just be focusing on the work to prepare ourselves and the world for Moshiach? Does the geulah have to come by the year 6000? How can we integrate the geulah paradigm into our daily lives and routines?

Learning Weekly Chizzuk from Chassidus, specifically
התוכן 1) כתיב "פקודי ה' ישרים משמחי לב", וקאי על לימוד הלכות שבתורה בכלל. ומ"מ ישנם ענינים שבהם מודגשת ענין השמחה. דאע"פ ש"שמחה של מצוה" היא מצד קיום רצונו ית', שזה שווה בכל המצוות, אבל השמחה צריכה לחדור גם את השכל, וזה בא בעיקר ע"י שזה ענין של שמחה גלוי' גם עפ"י הבנת השכל. מבין ענינים של שמחה גלוי' שבתורה, מתאים בימים אלו, בין המצרים, לימוד הלכות גאולה, ובמיוחד, מכיון שמדובר בימי חורבן ביהמ"ק – הלכות בנין המקדש, וגם ירושלים – העיר הנבחר לבנין המקדש, "ציון (ירושלים) במשפט תפדה". דהנה אע"פ שדובר על הצעה זו בשנה מסויימת, אבל היא עדיין קיימת כ"ז שטעם ההצעה קיים. 2) ה"צריך עיון גדול" איך מתאים מ"ש אדמו"ר האמצעי בקשר למאורעות של ימי הביניים ש"לא תקום פעמיים צרה" ר"ל עם מה שעבר דורנו – אסור שזה יפגע ח"ו בבטחון בה', ש"לא ינום ולא יישן שומר ישראל" (גם) הנמצאים באה"ק, שנתן ה' לכאו"א מישראל, ובביאת המשיח – יקבל כ"א את חלקו. ומזרזים א"ז ע"י לימוד התורה וקיום המצוות מתוך בטחון עצום בהקב"ה, ואז יראו בנחמת ציון וירושלים מיד.ב' חלקים משיחת מוצש"פ פינחס מבה"ח מנחם-אב ה'תשל"ח ל"הנחה פרטית" או התרגום ללה"ק של השיחה: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=21-07-2025 Synopsis (1) The verse says in Tehillim, “The orders of Hashem are upright, causing the heart to rejoice,” referring generally to the study of halacha. Nevertheless, there are some areas where joy is particularly emphasized, because although the joy of a mitzvah derives from fulfilling Hashem's will, which is equal in all mitzvos, the joy must also permeate the intellect, and this occurs primarily when it comes to Torah topics that openly involve joy. One such topic is the halachos of the Redemption, which is particularly appropriate during the Three Weeks, especially the laws pertaining to the building of the Beis Hamikdash and those pertaining to Yerushalayim, the city chosen for building the Beis Hamikdash – “Tzion (Yerushalayim) will be redeemed through justice.” Although the suggestion to study these laws during the Three Weeks was made in a certain year, the suggestion remains in force as long as the reason behind it remains in place. (2) Much examination is required to explain how the Mitteler Rebbe's statement that after the persecution of the Middle Ages, “the trouble will not rise twice” accords with the events endured by this generation. Nevertheless, this must not chas v'shalom diminish one's trust in Hashem, Who is the “Guardian of the Jewish people Who neither slumbers nor sleeps, including for those in the Holy Land, which Hashem gave to every Jew, each of whom will receive their portion of the Land with the coming of Moshiach. This will be hastened by studying Torah and doing mitzvos with tremendous trust in Hashem, and then the Jewish people will witness the consolation of Tzion and Yerushalayim immediately.2 excerpts from sichah of Motzaei Shabbos parashas Pinchas, 5738 For a transcript in English of the Sicha: https://thedailysicha.com/?date=21-07-2025

Ultimate Answer to Enemies
Ultimate Answer to Enemies
You Can't Teach Today Without Doing Deep Personal Work; Moving from the Frequency of Exile to RedemptionChavie Bruk interviewed Rabbi YY Jacobson on her podcast, “Totally Unexpected,” 3 Tamuz, 5785, June 29, 2025. Chavie begins the conversation by asking Rabbi YY how he manages his output of classes and public appearances while balancing personal responsibilities. Rabbi YY shares that although he has always maintained a heavy workload, he eventually realized that constantly jumping from one thing to the next can be a distraction. He shares a personal anecdote from when he was teaching a class to teenagers, and his own teenage children found it amusing that their father would have any relevant advice for teens. That was one of the catalysts for embarking on his own journey of self-discovery and reshaping his approach to teaching. Chavie and Rabbi YY discuss the importance of practicing an embodied Judaism and recognizing when ego or the self takes control of the task at hand. Rabbi YY describes what it was like to memorize six to seven hours of the Rebbe’s lectures every week as a young student, and how that continues to impact him more than thirty years later. Chavie brings up how the concept of Moshiach can sometimes feel elusive. Rabbi YY offers that today, we can taste what it feels like to live in a Messianic era by letting go of the things we cannot control—the frequencies of ego, fear, insecurity, feeling overwhelmed or disassociated—and recognizing that we have the ability to touch coherence and oneness, which is the frequency of trust, surrender, faith, and love. These are the higher frequencies of redemption, which are not pulled down by the gravity the earthiness, the frequency of guilt and shame.
BALAKChasing that ProphecyIt's not crazy to say that perhaps we are approaching the ‘end of times'. The loose ends of history are tying together, and the entire picture is becoming clear. It is no coincidence that the recent military operation from Israel was named borrowing language from Bilaam's prophecy: “like a lion rises,” thereby demonstrating the depth of that man's vision.Bilaam is the first to speak about the real thing: “Come, I will advise you what this people will do to your people at the end of days.” Bilaam speaks of the future redemption in greater detail than any other person, far more than even Moshe Rabbeinu. The Rambam rules that Bilaam's prophecy is the halachic source that obligates belief in the coming of Moshiach.
Our Siddur is replete with prayers for the coming of Moshiach. It is something that for millennium we have anticipated. After listening to Rabbi Yaghobian speak on this matter, I felt like a character from the 90's movie Pulp Fiction; a woman who was overdosing from a heroin, only to be brought back to life via an adrenaline shot through her sternum into her heart. Rabbi Yaghobian's words were like that adrenaline shot, causing me to wake up and see, that the Era of Moshiach is no longer an idea for some distant future, but the reality we live in today, as we are now living in the Era of Moshiach.WARNING: Listening to this episode will create an insatiable desire to learn Torah, do mitzvos with intention, improve ones' character traits and help out their fellow Jews by supporting Jewish Outreach organizations.
After reviewing Part 1, we continue with Rebbe Nachman's classic tale, which hints at the painful, seemingly endless exile of the Divine Presence. Even more painful are the frustrating efforts of the true Messiah to reveal himself. He too must suffer exile and tribulations. This is poignant portrait of dedication shows the national characteristics that will surely hasten Moshiach.

Trusting the Generous One
Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics:Gimmel Tammuz How can we describe and explain this day? How do we honor this day? Why do we say that the presence of a tzaddik is stronger after they pass away? What was the Rebbe's last major teaching before Chof Zayin Adar and Gimmel Tammuz? What maamar of the Rebbe would you recommend we study on this day? How is Gimmel Tammuz this year, 31 years later, different from previous years? Are there guidelines on how to pray at the Ohel to realize the best results? Why do some people see their prayers fulfilled more than others? Is there a connection between Korach challenging Moshe's leadership and Gimmel Tammuz? Is there a connection with the theme of Parshas Chukas, about purification from the toxins of death? What can we do to not feel depressed and threatened by today's world events? What did the Rebbe say about wars waged in Persia? Can we say that the Rebbe is Moshiach after Gimmel Tammuz? Will everyone in the world immediately know that Moshiach has arrived? Is this a positive thing? What would the Rebbe say? Is there a connection between Khamenei and Haman? Did the Rebbe say that one way to defeat irrational hatred is by increasing in irrational love? What is the connection between suprarational laws and engraved letters – both interpretations of the word Chukas? What can we learn from the story of Moshe hitting the rock instead of speaking to it? What would the Rebbe advise? Should we move out of New York?How will those sensitive to heat move to Israel?Ceasefire between Israel and Iran Chukas How should we react to the nomination of an anti-Israel NY Mayoral candidate? What lessons can we learn from the recent heat wave?
