Shiur from Rabbi Elimelech Kohn ztl on the topic of משיח. We continue the theme of the last Shiur. Discussed: - The Chasam Sofer wonders why the belief in Moshiach is included in the Thirteen Principles of Faith? Why is it elevated to that status more than other fundamentals of yidishkeit? - The Maharsha and the Aruch L'ner explain why Moshiach is called בר נפלי, son of the fallen, and how that relates to the generation preceding Moshiach.
