During his lifetime, the Lubavitcher Rebbe, Rabbi Menachem Mendel
Schneerson of blessed memory, was a highly successful religious
leader. His brilliant scholarship and eloquent speaking touched
hundreds of thousands of people. Larger than life and presiding in
a post-Holocaust world during which Jews returned to the land of
Israel in an unprecedented fashion, he was declared by many of his
followers to be the Moshiach (Messiah) for whom Jews have waited
for thousands of years. His death in 1994 should have dashed those
hopes. However, many of his followers have advanced the position
that even today the Rebbe can still be Moshiach.This book is an
analysis of this position within the Jewish tradition. What do the
doctrinally binding texts say about a dead man being Moshiach? In a
presentation appropriate for both the layman and the experienced
scholar, this work demonstrates from dozens of texts that according
to the authentic Jewish tradition the Rebbe unfortunately cannot be
Moshiach.
