    Consider the nevuah "Every knee shall bow". Every, not some. Every, not many. All. Yet, the Rebbe of Lubavitch has come and his soul has departed this earth, but most every knee is not bowing to G-d. Have you considered the possibility that perhaps moshiach has not been identified yet? Seems very clear to me that a major miracle or miracles will occur for the Jewish people, in such a way as to reveal the fact that G-d is with moshiach, and the whole world will see it and realize it, and who the person is. As a result of those miracles, "every knee shall bow" to G-d. Even the formerly atheist, as all things will become clear.

      I hope this helps to clarify the matter at hand. You are welcome to get back to me. Sincerely, Mashiach: Concealed Hora’ah - הוראה - Teaching “… our Mashiach is destined to be hidden after he is revealed and to be revealed again. So we find in Midrash Ruth” Rashi on Sefer Daniel 12:12 “The redeemer will be revealed and he will again be concealed… for so we find with redemption from Egypt that Moshe was revealed to them and he was again concealed from them. Rabbeinu Bachya, Shemos 4:9 And so says the midrash… so did the first redeemer appear to them and was again concealed from them, and once again revealed to them. The future redeemer (Mashiach) wil be revealed and again concealed” Chasam Sofer, Zohar Shemos 7a-9b, Ohr Hachama, Arizal My beloved is like a gazelle ; as the gazelle appears and then disappears, so the first redeemer appeared and then disappeared. R. Berekiah in the name of R. Levi said: Like the first redeemer so will the final redeemer be. The first redeemer was Moses, who appeared to them and then disappeared. Midrash Rabba Bamidbar 11:2] Many sources describe a dramatic difference between the first time Mashiach is revealed, when “Mashiach will be revealed but they won’t recognize him,” after which ‘he will be concealed, like Moshe, and body and soul” and the final revelation of Mashiach when “after this, he will be revealed completely and all Israel will recognize him and gather to him…” Zohar Shemos 7a, quoted in Sha’ar Hagilgulim ch.13, Arba Me’os Shekel Kesef, p.68. Ohr Hachama on the Zohar And after his coming and revelation there’s an interruption, and then he completes the process - this is found in a number of places in Torah. Let me just mention a few. One is Midrash Rabba Shir HaShirim 2:22, on the pasuk “Domeh dodi l’tzvi.” And the Midrash says, just like a deer is revealed, and hidden, and again hidden. I guess it means that when it runs, it runs between the trees - you see it and then you don’t see it. That’s what happened with Moshe Rabbeinu in Egypt. He came, and then he was concealed for a few months - there are different opinions how many months - and then he was revealed again and took the Jews out of Mitzrayim. The Midrash concludes the same thing will be with Moshiach: He will be revealed, then he will be hidden, and then he will be revealed again. In fact, the Midrash says that when he will be hidden, it will be a very difficult time. There will be people who will stop believing in him because of that, and that ultimately he will come. This message is also in Rashi, in Daniel 12:12. The pasuk says, “Ashrei ha’m’chakim” (fortunate are those who will wait for Moshiach). Rashi says this is not just talking about people in general who wait for Moshiach…fortunate are those who will wait for Moshiach after he is revealed, and then he will be hidden, and then revealed again. In that in-between time: fortunate are those who persevere in their emuna. In fact, Rashi says this is brought down in the davening, in the siddur, the “Yotzer” for Parshas HaChodesh. Anyone can look it up. It’s in the Rav Yaakov Emden Siddur. It says the same thing: Moshiach will come, be revealed, then he’ll be hidden, and revealed again. It’s also found in this week’s parsha, Parshas Shmos. Rabbeinu Bechaye, at the end of the parsha, says, “Moshe Rabbeinu came, then he was hidden, and then he came back to take the Yidden out of Mitzrayim.” And he writes that the same will be with Moshiach, as it says, “Kimei tzeis’cha m’Eretz Mitzrayim ar’enu niflaos.” This redemption will be similar to the redemption in the times of Mitzrayim. The Chasam Sofer, one of the greatest masters of halacha in our recent generations, also wrote in his seifer, Toras Moshe, on this parsha, Shmos. At the end of the parsha, he says that the fact that Moshe was gone for six months was a very big test. The same will be b’yimei Moshiach Tzidkeinu, yinelam achar nisgaleh (in the days of Moshiach Tzidkeinu, he will be concealed after he is revealed), and we will need special assistance from Hashem to stand up to this test. As mentioned before, the Arizal in Seifer Shaar HaGilgulim also says the same thing - that he’ll come, and like Moshe Rabbeinu, he will disappear, go away, we won’t have him. Then he’ll come back and take all the Yidden out of Galus.” Rabbi Majeski, A Preface to Moshiach: Setting the Record Straight, Moshiach & Geula, BeisMoshiach.org

    Subject: Embracing Isaiah 11:6: A Call to Compassion and Harmony in the Awaited Messianic Era Dear Rabbi Eliyahu Kaye I trust this message finds you in good health and spirits. As we eagerly anticipate the arrival of the Messianic era, I am compelled to share some reflections with you, drawing upon both our sacred texts and the discussions we've had regarding compassion for all living beings. In Isaiah 11:6, we are presented with a powerful vision of the future: "The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together; and a little child shall lead them." This verse encapsulates the promise of a world characterized by unprecedented peace and harmony, not only among humanity but also within the animal kingdom. Reflecting on this profound vision, I am struck by the inherent logic and consistency of God's divine plan. If God, in His infinite wisdom and compassion, grants everlasting peace to the animals, can we, as humans, justify actions that would disrupt or violate that peace? It seems inconceivable that the fulfillment of such a divine promise could coexist with human behaviors that perpetuate suffering and harm to our fellow creatures. As we prepare for the arrival of the Messiah, I believe it is incumbent upon us to align our actions with the divine intentions expressed in Isaiah 11:6. Just as we eagerly anticipate the fulfillment of this vision of peace and harmony, let us also commit ourselves to fostering compassion and kindness towards all living beings. Our tradition teaches us that the Messianic era represents not only the redemption of humanity but also the renewal of the entire created order. It is a time when the lion will lie down with the lamb, and swords will be turned into plowshares. It is a vision of paradise, not relegated to some distant celestial realm, but realized right here on Earth, where every creature is valued and respected. I humbly invite you to join me in embracing the profound implications of Isaiah 11:6 as we prepare for the coming of the Messiah. Together, let us strive to embody the values of compassion, kindness, and stewardship towards all living beings, thereby ushering in a future characterized by peace, harmony, and justice for all. With sincere blessings and warm regards, The messenger of [Messiah]

      I hope this helps to clarify the matter at hand. You are welcome to get back to me. Sincerely, Mashiach: Concealed Hora’ah - הוראה - Teaching “… our Mashiach is destined to be hidden after he is revealed and to be revealed again. So we find in Midrash Ruth” Rashi on Sefer Daniel 12:12 “The redeemer will be revealed and he will again be concealed… for so we find with redemption from Egypt that Moshe was revealed to them and he was again concealed from them. Rabbeinu Bachya, Shemos 4:9 And so says the midrash… so did the first redeemer appear to them and was again concealed from them, and once again revealed to them. The future redeemer (Mashiach) wil be revealed and again concealed” Chasam Sofer, Zohar Shemos 7a-9b, Ohr Hachama, Arizal My beloved is like a gazelle ; as the gazelle appears and then disappears, so the first redeemer appeared and then disappeared. R. Berekiah in the name of R. Levi said: Like the first redeemer so will the final redeemer be. The first redeemer was Moses, who appeared to them and then disappeared. Midrash Rabba Bamidbar 11:2] Many sources describe a dramatic difference between the first time Mashiach is revealed, when “Mashiach will be revealed but they won’t recognize him,” after which ‘he will be concealed, like Moshe, and body and soul” and the final revelation of Mashiach when “after this, he will be revealed completely and all Israel will recognize him and gather to him…” Zohar Shemos 7a, quoted in Sha’ar Hagilgulim ch.13, Arba Me’os Shekel Kesef, p.68. Ohr Hachama on the Zohar And after his coming and revelation there’s an interruption, and then he completes the process - this is found in a number of places in Torah. Let me just mention a few. One is Midrash Rabba Shir HaShirim 2:22, on the pasuk “Domeh dodi l’tzvi.” And the Midrash says, just like a deer is revealed, and hidden, and again hidden. I guess it means that when it runs, it runs between the trees - you see it and then you don’t see it. That’s what happened with Moshe Rabbeinu in Egypt. He came, and then he was concealed for a few months - there are different opinions how many months - and then he was revealed again and took the Jews out of Mitzrayim. The Midrash concludes the same thing will be with Moshiach: He will be revealed, then he will be hidden, and then he will be revealed again. In fact, the Midrash says that when he will be hidden, it will be a very difficult time. There will be people who will stop believing in him because of that, and that ultimately he will come. This message is also in Rashi, in Daniel 12:12. The pasuk says, “Ashrei ha’m’chakim” (fortunate are those who will wait for Moshiach). Rashi says this is not just talking about people in general who wait for Moshiach…fortunate are those who will wait for Moshiach after he is revealed, and then he will be hidden, and then revealed again. In that in-between time: fortunate are those who persevere in their emuna. In fact, Rashi says this is brought down in the davening, in the siddur, the “Yotzer” for Parshas HaChodesh. Anyone can look it up. It’s in the Rav Yaakov Emden Siddur. It says the same thing: Moshiach will come, be revealed, then he’ll be hidden, and revealed again. It’s also found in this week’s parsha, Parshas Shmos. Rabbeinu Bechaye, at the end of the parsha, says, “Moshe Rabbeinu came, then he was hidden, and then he came back to take the Yidden out of Mitzrayim.” And he writes that the same will be with Moshiach, as it says, “Kimei tzeis’cha m’Eretz Mitzrayim ar’enu niflaos.” This redemption will be similar to the redemption in the times of Mitzrayim. The Chasam Sofer, one of the greatest masters of halacha in our recent generations, also wrote in his seifer, Toras Moshe, on this parsha, Shmos. At the end of the parsha, he says that the fact that Moshe was gone for six months was a very big test. The same will be b’yimei Moshiach Tzidkeinu, yinelam achar nisgaleh (in the days of Moshiach Tzidkeinu, he will be concealed after he is revealed), and we will need special assistance from Hashem to stand up to this test. As mentioned before, the Arizal in Seifer Shaar HaGilgulim also says the same thing - that he’ll come, and like Moshe Rabbeinu, he will disappear, go away, we won’t have him. Then he’ll come back and take all the Yidden out of Galus.” Rabbi Majeski, A Preface to Moshiach: Setting the Record Straight, Moshiach & Geula, BeisMoshiach.org

      You are welcome to read the following article. I hope this helps to shed light on your question. www.chabad.org/library/article_cdo/aid/269721/jewish/Is-Astrology-Kosher.htm Is Astrology Kosher? Levi Brackman Predicting the future is big business. From newspaper astrologers to corporate consultants, there are many people out there ready to profit from our insatiable desire to know the unknown. Often, when contemplating major changes in my life, I am tempted to check my astrological reading. Is there anything wrong with this? Can an intelligent person believe in astrology without feeling ridiculous? It is fascinating to note that the rabbis of the Talmud gave considerable credence to astrology. The Talmud states that “upon entry into the month of Adar one should become increasingly joyous. Rav Papa said: ‘Therefore a Jew should avoid litigation with gentiles in the month of Av, because his mazal is bad; and he should move the court case to the month of Adar, when his mazal is good.’”1 The Hebrew word which Talmud uses here, mazal, is usually translated “luck” but literally means “constellations.” Astrology is not only a factor to be taken into account when planning future events-it also influences human nature. According to the Talmud, one born under the constellation of the sun will achieve eminence, and one born under Venus will become wealthy and immoral. One born under Mercury will be wise and have a retentive memory. One born under the Moon will suffer evil. One born under Saturn will suffer frustration, one born under Jupiter will be righteous, and one born under Mars will become either a surgeon or a slaughterer.2 A birthday is therefore viewed by the rabbis as a day on which personal astrological fortune is at its most potent.3 There is an uncomfortable contradiction inherent in all this. Although astrology is prominent in rabbinic thought, Jewish law cautions against seeking the advice of astrologers.4 But if astrology is a true science, why not consult it? The following Midrashic parable sheds light on this. A king conquered a new province, the elite of which decided that they needed to forge connections with the new rulers. Some decided to become acquainted with the dukes, others with the knights and yet others with the ministers. The wisest amongst them declared, “I will forge a connection with the king himself.” He reasoned, “All the ministers, knights and dukes change; however, the king will always remain king.5 So, too, continues the Midrash, some people attribute power to the constellations and wish to serve them. Monotheistic believers, however, realize that G‑d is the supreme power, and that all other powers are no more than obedient servants who carry out His will. Since everything in the universe is subject to the laws of cause and effect, according to nature the month of Adar is an astrologically lucky month, and a birthday has unique astrological potential for the celebrant. However, reliance on astrology could lead one to conclude that nature has a life of its own, and that the celestial spheres have powers independent of G‑d’s will. In fact, these are no more than a manifestation of the divine will. This is why prayer is so important. Mundane life seeks to convince us that life is dictated by the laws of nature. Prayer reminds us that nature is controlled by G‑d. The message is clear: nature and its rules-including astrological truths-do exert an influence on our lives. It presents us with auspicious times and circumstances, and inauspicious ones; it imbues our character with certain traits and tendencies. However, one must recognize that ultimate power rests not with “nature” but with the Creator of heaven and earth.6 FOOTNOTES 1. Talmud, Taanit 29a-b. 2. Talmud, Shabbat 156a. Although rabbinic consensus holds that Jews are not affected by mazal, the great medieval Talmudist Ritva (Rabbi Yom Tov ibn Asevilli, circa 1300) suggests that in this context the word mazal is to be understood as a generic term for “decree” rather than constellations. He thus suggests that when the rabbis of the Talmud say that Jews are not affected by mazal, they mean that they can subvert divine decrees through the performance of good deeds (Taanit 29a). 3. See Jerusalem Talmud, Rosh Hashanah 3:8, regarding the Amalekites: in their war against the Israelites they used soldiers who were celebrating their birthday that day, so that they would have an astrological advantage over the enemy. 4. Talmud, Pesachim 113b. 5. Midrash Rabbah, Eichah 3. 6. It must be noted, however, that not all the rabbis believed in the truth of astrology. In fact Judaism’s great codifier and philosopher, Maimonides (Rabbi Moses ben Maimon, 1135-1204), dismissed astrology as having no validity. See his Epistle to Yemen, Chapter 3, and his Commentary on the Mishnah, Avodah Zarah 4:7. It should also be noted that none of this is intended as an endorsement of the modern-day “astrology” practiced by pop astrologers and published in Internet and newspaper “horoscopes,” which probably bear little or no relation to the ancient science of astrology mentioned in the Talmud.

      ​@@aak770I'm the closest documented living relative of rav Schneerson. #ImTheMoschiach. I'm willing to declare all Pallestinians descendants of Jacob's twelve sons and are therefore just as rightfully heirs to the Holy Land as equal citizens.... One State Solution.
