Son of david

Moshiach himself is present, existing now in the world. We are standing at the threshold of the messianic era. The leader of the generation is on the verge to remove the concealment, reveal himself as well as the truth. The arrival of the righteous redeemer will automatically initiate the dawn of redemption. The rest of the world will be invited to study his teachings and follow his instructions (chochma, bina and da’as) since our generation is the final generation of Golus and the first generation of the Geulah…

Stamp of approval
Do the Jewish people has a protocol in place to welcome Moshiach now?
Moshiach has a life, a name, a place of birth and he is a normal human being like anyone.
He has been wounded; His soul lay bare on many rocks. He has seen the darker side of life. He will need support, as any fledgling needs support.
Indeed, Moshiach is looking and watching us; he sees us but we don't see him, only because our wall (Lack of knowledge) obstructs his sight.

The Messiah will be absolutely mortal, born of a man and a woman [Rambam, Sefer HaVikuah 88]
The king messiah will be like one of us in every aspect, with a mother and a father. He also will be among the people in exile, suffering the afflictions of exile as his brethren.[Abarbanel, Yeshuot Meschicho 3:3]
"In the Talmud a difficulty is pointed out by reference to a distinctly eschatological Baraita22, which describes the events of the septennium preceding the advent of the son of David, and in which is stated 'in the sixth year (Heavenly) sounds; in the seventh year, wars; and at the termination of the septennium the son of David will come', and the Gemara answers 'War is also the beginning of redemption.' From the Book, THE SAGES by, Ephraim E. Urbach

Analysis from walter Vaughn


Never has so much been written about someone about whom we know so little. Scholars and laymen alike gaze through this mysterious cloud that shrouds the son of David. Detailed and elaborate belief systems bound together by multiple doctrines, dictates, and tales would seem [if it were possible] to confine and contain G-d's anointed. Although Moshiach's identity may be secret, ancient prophetic passages provide clues to his identity. This web site will focus on the "peshat-simple" and the "sod or secret" nature of the coming son of David.

There is no greater mystery than the identity of Moshiach ben David

Moshiach who is represented by the number "8" waits in hiding. He peeks through the windows and peers through the crevices not wanting to be seen, behaving as if he's ashamed of his appearance. Why does he hide his face from the Jewish community? What is he waiting for? Why doesn't he come already?


Unfortunately, he is in no spiritual condition to make himself known. We are taught Moshiach tarries, I believe the procrastination on Moshicah's part is a time of cleansing, reproving, and spiritually preparing himself for his bride, Yisrael. It is in his weakened condition that he is seen as one who stands behind their wall peeking through the windows at his bride, he is lovesick. His outward appearance is as a gentile for it says of him,

Many years had passed between Moshe looked in on Israel and his eventual return to lead them out of Mitsrayim. How many years will transpire between Moshiach looking through the window to actually knocking on the door? While Moshiach tarries, Israel sleeps.

I believe with perfect faith in the coming Messiah; and though he tarry, I will wait daily for his coming."
Why does Moshiach "tarry" or procrastinate? In the Tenach, ha sefer Shir haShirim 2:9 [Song of Songs] we are given insight into the early relationship between Moshiach and his bride Israel.
Lack of knowledge from the chosen people prevents Moshiach from making his appearance.

Why is Moshiach concealed and hidden among the gentiles? Could it have been the Holocaust or some other tragic event that lead to the concealment of the son of David? It's any ones guess what might have triggered the separation but one thing is for certain, in the latter days just prior to the revelation of Moshiach the son of David is a resident of Edom.

At last Moshiach makes his appearance! The one who was previously standing behind the lattice is now spiritually strong enough to knock at her door. Why does Moshiach knock? Only a stranger knocks before entering. The owner of the house will not quickly open to a stranger. Moshiach will have severed all religious allegiance with Edom/Christianity (see Modern day Edom) but his love for the people in the Christian community will never be extinguished. This is a universal Messiah who is able to sincerely empathise with people from all walks of life because he is a part of the whole. But, he must return to the faith of his fathers and what he believes to be true. It is written,
"Surely I have cleansed my heart in vain,[in Edom] and washed my hands in innocency; for all the day I have been stricken, and chastised every morning. If I had said, I will tell a story like that,[Christian Gospel] behold, I should have offended against the generation of thy children."[children of Israel] Psalms 73:15
"The generation of thy children" is the Jewish generation who will witness and welcome Moshiach's arrival. The son of David will have completed his long and gruelling return to Judaism having prepared himself so as to be acceptable before his bride, Yisrael. This is what is meant when he says,"I have washed my feet". Unfortunately, Israel became weary waiting for his arrival. After all many false messiahs came previously knocking at her door.
