Moshiach’s Meal

Passover concludes with a final meal dedicated to Moshiach who must appear before the next 230 years—the expiration of the Hebrew calendar. In the year 5666/1906 a great Rebbe in Russia asked his students to drink four glasses of wine because the Four Alephim/1111 was coming into the world. A hundred years later the 111th Congress and the president as head Aleph/One comprise the 1111; the four cups of wine makes its difficult to continue.

The 1111 refers to the four parts of the brain pictured in the four compartments of the Tephilin worn on the head during prayer. The year 666 is significant because it infers the climax of the thousand years of Ysod/Secret when all the secrets of the world are being revealed; a week before the year 5666 began Einstein published E equal MC squared and Picasso discovered Cubism as the earth shook beneath San Francisco from where the truth comes forth.

According to the Talmud-Book of Law at the end of Moshiach’s meal a cup of wine is passed between the ancient elders until it reaches Dovid who says, I will take the cup of salvation and cry out to God.
