LIVING WITH MOSHIACH #2528

In memory of Rabbi Levi Yitzchok ben R' Zalman Yuda Deitsch OBM

In the beginning of the book of Genesis, we read, "And the spirit of G-d hovered over the waters." Our Sages tell us that this actually refers to Moshiach. In fact, the Hebrew words of the verse "v'ruach Elokim m'rachefet - and the spirit of G-d hovered" have the same numerical value as the words, "zeh haya rucho shel Melech HaMashiach - this was the spirit of King Moshiach."
