summary

Perceiving that the belief in the Messianic Age was weakening during his generation due to Christian pressure, Abarbanel wrote a triad of books in order to bolster the Jewish perception of the End of Times. The present work, Yeshu’oth Meshicho, elaborates upon Talmudic and Midrashic statements pertaining to the Redemption. R. Chaim Mordechai Brunroth (1881-1950) was a leader of the Mizrachi movement in Poland and later served as the Av Beth Din of Tel-Aviv.
