Someone should get this message to the President/ he has a chance to have the greatest legacy of all time..does anyone have a contact and Rabbi Kessin can speak with the President?
ReplyDeleteI guess anyone can...
ReplyDeleteSearch this out...
https://www.whitehouse.gov/contact/
Thank you for sharing this link. I’ve written several times, and even called the White House.. Maybe Send this to his daughter.
ReplyDeleteI have many Chabad contacts. But I can't see any of them taking seriously the idea that forwarding Trump or Ivanka a video will change anything at all. Firstly, they wouldn't understand some of the concepts, it would need to be broken down into simple ideas that actually penetrate their consciousness and make them think that this is something to be taken seriously.
DeleteHowever, if Hashem wants Trump to take this seriously then it can happen and somehow we need to put our heads together and come up with a way to make this information accessible in a simple form that will be taken notice of.
I've done something that I've never done before after reading these comments and that is I made a call to someone who can get to the right person you mentioned above. I was inspired and like I say I have never done this before. I want to bring Mashiach. that's why I made the call. I am praying that the person I called can pull this off and get something happening. Everyone pray that it will happen. We must bring Mashaich.
DeleteAnnoymous @ June 3, 2026 at 9:43 AM
DeleteWonderful you did it !!!
I am sure you will get a call back... everyone is so much into what is happening, and White House may take time,,, but, i am sure someone will contact you.
Perhaps, B'H, MaShiach may be here, already, that is as they at Whitehouse raise the speaker to dial your number.
How wonderful that will be, nu?? :))
ess/tee
To the person who never did this before, and now has tried to help… and to everyone who is also trying, thank you so much!! We very much believe that we are already in the beginning of the geula, and want to do anything to be closer to Hashem and to serve him. You are all helping by giving each other Chizuk as well!
Deletesome key points for me, so far, I haven't heard the whole thing yet, but how obvious is the hashgacha pratis [Divine Providence] that the day I come back to my blog, Rabbi Kessin puts out a lecture about this very topic, because last week I pretty much gave up on all of it.
ReplyDeleteNot totally, just blog-wise.
26.50 he's speaking about suffering
32.50 giving a person the suffering that someone else should endure
34.00 the creation of a tremendous doubt if the Moshiach will even come
this hanhaga [behaviour] from G-d happens right before Redemption, in order to raise everyone up a level
DeleteIt's said Moshiach is supposed to "sniff" out people. But will he talk to us? If so, how? Because many people speak ONLY English or ONLY Yiddish, and I absolutely do not think they're inclined to learn Lashon Hakodesh at their stage of the game.
DeleteWhich leaves one more option: Telepathy. R' Dessler wrote that in Moshiach's times, communication will be thru telepathy, and also that modern-medicine will be considered primitive. Actually, the prospect of such advanced medicine interests me even more than telepathy, but they're both something to look forward to.
bs"D.. welcome back Devorah... you see how welcome your return is! I haven't listened to this video yet, but the "title" troubles me. "Harder to believe in the coming of Moshiach?" sounds very anti Torah. Perhaps the title is misleading. We have the 13 ikrim of emunah, and nothing will change them, or our "ani maamim" that though he may tarry, we wait for the coming of the moshiach. Oddly, the more things "look bleak" the more we should see Hashem. Hold on tight, Hashem is swinging a long rope and we are holding on to the end! Again, I haven't listened to this yet, just responding to perhaps not the best title?? Batya
ReplyDeleteNo one is talking about Moshiach anymore because everyone realized that he’s not coming anytime soon. Enough with the predictions.
Delete-Batsheva
Batsheva your comment got lost but I just found it. I hope you listen to the shiur because you are the embodiment of what he is talking about.
ReplyDeleteBatya, I thought the title was perfect because it's true.... many people are giving up in some way, probably not all the way... but feeling like it's far away....I mean just read Batsheva's comment above this. Anyway, Rabbi Kessin clears it all up because this is how it is before Geula. Everyone relax.
So happy to see you back again Devorah... Missed you a lot..\
ReplyDeletes.c.
Welcome back Devorah! I read a statistic that there are 15 million yidden in the world, of whom 2 million are Torah observant. Of course, we have no idea where these numbers come from. I just throw it it to say that we only need 600,000 souls to greet Moshiach. And we must expect Moshiach every day. So those of us who continue to keep our eyes on the horizon will be the ones who hasten his revelation,may it be today. Now, I want to just make a small comment about efforts to reach Trump. I was a Washington lobbyist for 30 years. It's great to launch letter writing, phone, email campaigns, etc. But the President or Senator or Congressman never see nor hear these messages, unless you are a top fundraiser. Perhaps the best way to reach Trump is on Truth Social or other social media platform being sure to tag him, because he does scan his social media feed almost constantly. And let's not forget whispering in the ears of Trump are Witkoff and Kushner.
ReplyDeletemy suggestion to all please learn Musar for at least 30 minutes a day (this is what Rabbis say). type in Google AI " online books for Emuna and Bitahon" these readings will make you more happy life.

Rambam writes:
ReplyDeleteHilchot Teshuvah 7:5
אין ישראל נגאלין אלא בתשובה
“Israel will be redeemed only through teshuvah.”
This is one of Rambam’s strongest statements on the subject.
Teshuvah is inseparably connected to redemption. The Torah, Chazal, and Rambam all teach that the Jewish people ultimately return to HaShem and are redeemed.
However, Chazal record a debate regarding whether redemption waits for voluntary teshuvah or whether HaShem will bring events that ultimately lead Israel to teshuvah before the final redemption.
What is clear from all views is that redemption does not come because people proclaim a particular individual as Mashiach. Chazal connect redemption to HaShem’s plan, teshuvah, and the fulfillment of the prophetic process—not to campaigns, slogans, or human certainty about who Mashiach is or when Mashaich will come .
It is not clear from The Rambam exactly how much Teshuva needs to be done. Since 1960 there has been a huge amount of Teshuva in Klal Yisroel. The Rebbe clearly said that "Teshuva has been done". This does not mean that each and everyone of us is now exempt from Teshuva - it means that the Teshuva that Klal Yisroel need to do has been done. There are people on this board who are much too young to appreciate the terrible Matzav in Klal Yisroel so close to the Holocaust and The Rebbe "turned the world upside down" with Teshuva. The ridicule and opposition that The Rebbe faced for starting the Teshuva movement was indescribable and today "no one" can believe the huge opposition to the Teshuva movement.
ReplyDeleteConsidering we are still in exile I guess much more Tshuvah needs to be done as said by Chazal before Redemption .
DeleteNo one can deny that there has been a remarkable increase in Torah learning, mitzvah observance, and Jewish revival since the Holocaust, and the Rebbe played a significant role in inspiring many Jews. Giving credit where it is due is important. However, that is a different question from whether the national teshuvah required for redemption has already been completed.
DeleteWhen Rambam writes:
וכבר הבטיחה תורה שסוף ישראל לעשות תשובה בסוף גלותן ומיד הן נגאלין
“The Torah has promised that Israel will ultimately do teshuvah at the end of their exile, and immediately they will be redeemed” (Hilchot Teshuvah 7:5),
He links it directly to the redemption process itself. Since the Beit HaMikdash has not been rebuilt, all exiles have not been gathered, and the messianic era has not arrived, one cannot simply assert as a matter of halacha that the teshuvah Rambam describes has already been completed.
Furthermore, the Rebbe’s statement that “teshuvah has been done” is not a binding halachic source. In Judaism, questions of redemption are determined by Torah, Tanach, Chazal, and the halachic authorities—not by the declarations of even the greatest contemporary leader. Many great sages throughout history believed redemption was near. Some were correct in identifying spiritual progress; none thereby acquired certainty about the timing of redemption.
There is also a logical difficulty. If one claims that the national teshuvah required by Rambam has already occurred, then one must explain why the redemption that Rambam says follows “immediately” has not yet arrived decades later. The simplest reading is that while there has been tremendous teshuvah and spiritual growth, the final teshuvah spoken of by the Torah and Rambam has not yet reached its complete fulfillment.
The Torah’s approach is therefore both grateful and humble: we all can acknowledge enormous achievements in strengthening Jewish observance the past 60 years and while still admitting that only HaShem knows whether the final stage described by the prophets and Chazal has been reached. Growth in teshuvah not 100% certain that redemption must therefore be imminent as it is an interpretation, not a halachic conclusion.
The Torah has already promised that Israel will ultimately do teshuvah at the end of their exile, and immediately they will be redeemed.
ReplyDeleteDevarim 30:1–10, where Moshe Rabbeinu says that after exile:
ושבת עד ה’ אלקיך
“You shall return to HaShem your God…”
and then:
ושב ה’ אלקיך את שבותך
“HaShem your God will return your captivity…”
The passage presents a future national return to HaShem linked with redemption.
Rambam codifies this in Hilchot Teshuvah 7:5:
וכבר הבטיחה תורה שסוף ישראל לעשות תשובה בסוף גלותן ומיד הן נגאלין
“The Torah has already promised that Israel will ultimately do teshuvah at the end of their exile, and immediately they will be redeemed.”
This is one of the strongest statements in Rambam. He does not merely say teshuvah is desirable; he says the Torah promised that Israel will ultimately repent before redemption.
Rambam teaches that the Torah promises that at the end of exile the Jewish people will do teshuvah, and then redemption will follow.
The final redemption is not presented as the result of proclaiming a particular individual as Mashiach, but as part of HaShem’s Torah process in which Israel ultimately returns to Him.
At the same time, Chazal also discuss how that teshuvah comes about, and there is debate in Sanhedrin 97b about the process. What is not debated is that Israel’s ultimate return to HaShem is part of the redemption narrative itself.
What is going on with President Trump?
ReplyDeleteHe is making a huge mistake.
Today is Sunday June 7th and Iran has launched missiles on Iran.
Trumps response:
Trump told Iran to stop missile attacks on Israel, urging a return to negotiations, while expressing dissatisfaction with Israeli strikes in Beirut.
Is he kidding? Return to negotiations?
Iran will never accept no nuke terms. What is Trump doing?
Can you explain this Devorah or someone?
