That is why the Messiah is called i bar nifli /i . Rabbi Yitzḥak b said to him /b that b this /b is what b Rabbi Yoḥa says: /b During b the generation in which /b the Messiah, b son of David, comes, Torah scholars decrease; and /b as for b the rest /b of the people, b their eyes fail with sorrow and grief, and troubles increase. And the harsh decrees will be introduced; before the first passes the second quickly comes. /b , b The Sages taught /b in a i baraita /i : With regard to b the seven-year /b period, i.e., the Sabbatical cycle, b during which /b the Messiah, b son of David, comes: /b During b the first year, this verse will be fulfilled: “And I will cause it to rain upon one city and cause it not to rain upon another city” /b (Amos 4:7). During the b second /b year of that period, b arrows of famine will be shot, /b indicating that there will be famine only in certain places. During the b third /b year b there will be a great famine, and men, women, children, the pious, and men of action will die, and the Torah is forgotten by those who study it. During the fourth /b year there will be b plenty but not /b great b plenty. During the fifth /b year there will be b great plenty and they will eat, and drink, and rejoice, and the Torah will return to those who study it. During the sixth /b year, heavenly b voices /b will be heard. b During the Sabbatical /b Year, b wars, /b e.g., the war of Gog and Magog, will be waged involving the Jewish people. b During /b the year after b the conclusion of the Sabbatical /b Year, b the son of David will come. /b , b Rav Yosef said: Haven’t there been several Sabbatical /b cycles during b which /b events b transpired /b in b that /b manner b and /b nevertheless, the Messiah b did not come? Abaye said: Have /b the phenomena: b During the sixth /b year, heavenly b voices, /b and b during the Sabbatical /b Year, b wars, transpired? And furthermore, have /b all these phenomena b transpired in /b the b order /b in which they were listed in the i baraita /i ?,The verse states: b “That Your enemies taunted, Lord, that they have taunted the footsteps of Your anointed” /b (Psalms 89:52). b It is taught /b in a i baraita /i that b Rabbi Yehuda says: During the generation that the son of David comes, the hall of the assembly /b of the Sages b will be /b designated b for prostitution, and the Galilee will be destroyed, and the Gavlan, /b i.e., Bashan, b will be desolate, and the residents of the border /b who flee the neighboring gentiles b will circulate from city to city and will receive no sympathy. The wisdom of scholars will diminish, and sin-fearing /b people b will be despised. And the face of the generation will be like the face of a dog /b in its impudence and shamelessness., b And the truth will be lacking, as it is stated: “And the truth is lacking [ i ne’ederet /i ], and he who departs from evil is negated” /b (Isaiah 59:15). b What /b is the meaning of the phrase: b And the truth is lacking [ i ne’ederet /i ]? /b The Sages of b the study hall of Rav said: /b This b teaches that /b truth b will become like /b so many b flocks [ i adarim /i ] and walk /b away. b What /b is the meaning of the phrase: b “And he that departs from evil is negated”? /b The Sages of b the study hall of Rabbi Sheila said: Anyone who deviates from evil is deemed insane by the people. /b ,§ Concerning the lack of truth, b Rava says: Initially I would say /b that b there is no truth /b anywhere b in the world. /b There was b a certain one of the Sages, and Rav Tavut is his name, and some say Rav Tavyomei is his name, /b who was so honest b that if they were /b to b give him the entire world, he would not deviate /b from the truth b in his statement. /b He said to me: b One time I happened /b to come b to a certain place, and Truth is its name, and /b its residents b would not deviate /b from the truth b in their statements, and no person from there would die prematurely. I married a woman from /b among b them, and I had two sons from her. /b , b One day his wife was sitting and washing the /b hair on her b head. Her neighbor came /b and b knocked on the door. He thought: /b It is b not proper conduct /b to tell the neighbor that his wife is bathing. b He said to her: She is not here. /b Since he deviated from the truth b his two sons died. The people /b residing b in /b that b place came before him /b and b said to him: What /b is the meaning of b this? He said to them: This was /b the nature of the b incident, /b and told them what happened. b They said to him: Please leave our place and do not provoke /b premature b death upon these people. /b ,The Gemara resumes its discussion of the messianic period. b It is taught /b in a i baraita /i that b Rabbi Nehorai says: During the generation /b in b which the son of David comes, youths will humiliate elders and elders will stand /b in deference b before youths, and a daughter will rebel against her mother, and a bride against her mother-in-law, and the face of the generation will be like the face of a dog, and a son will not be ashamed before his father. /b , b It is taught /b in a i baraita /i that b Rabbi Neḥemya says: During the generation that the son of David comes, arrogance will proliferate and the cost /b of living b will corrupt /b people so they will engage in deceit. b The vine will produce its fruit, and /b nevertheless, b the wine /b will be b costly. And the entire /b gentile b monarchy will be converted to /b the b heresy /b of Christianity, b and there will be no /b inclination among the people to accept b rebuke. /b This i baraita /i b supports /b the opinion of b Rabbi Yitzḥak, as Rabbi Yitzḥak says: The son of David will not come until the entire kingdom will be converted to heresy. Rava says: What is the verse /b from which this statement is derived? It is the verse: b “It is all turned white; he is ritually pure” /b (Leviticus 13:13). One is a leper and ritually impure only if he has a leprous mark, however small, but not if his skin is completely leprous. Similarly, the world will be redeemed only when the Jewish people reach their lowest point., b The Sages taught /b in a i baraita /i : The verse states: b “For the Lord shall judge His people /b and atone for His servants, b when He sees that their power is gone and there is none shut up or left” /b (Deuteronomy 32:36). From the phrase “their power is gone” it is derived that b the son of David will not come until informers will proliferate. Alternatively, /b the Messiah will not come b until the /b number of b students /b of Torah b diminishes. Alternatively, /b the Messiah will not come b until /b the b i peruta /i will cease from the purse. Alternatively, /b the Messiah will not come b until they despair from the redemption, as it is stated: “And there is none shut up or left,” as though there were no supporter or helper for the Jewish people. /b ,This is b as /b in b that /b practice b of Rabbi Zeira, /b who, b when he would find Sages who were engaging in /b discussions about the coming of the Messiah, b said to them: Please, I ask of you, do not delay /b his coming by calculating the end of days. b As we learn /b in a i baraita /i : There are b three /b matters that b come /b only b by means of diversion of attention /b from those matters, b and these are they: /b The b Messiah, a lost item, and a scorpion. /b ,§ b Rav Ketina says: Six thousand years is /b the duration of b the world, /b and b it is in ruins /b for b one /b thousand years. The duration of the period during which the world is in ruins is derived from a verse, b as it is stated: “And the Lord alone shall be exalted on that day” /b (Isaiah 2:11), and the day of God lasts one thousand years. b Abaye says: It is in ruins /b for b two /b thousand years, b as it is stated: “After two days He will revive us; in the third day He will revive us, and we shall live in His presence” /b (Hosea 6:2)., b It is taught /b in a i baraita /i b in accordance with /b the opinion b of Rav Ketina: Just as the Sabbatical /b Year b abrogates /b debts b once in seven years, so too, the world abrogates /b its typical existence for b one thousand years in /b every b seven thousand years, as it is stated: “And the Lord alone shall be exalted on that day,” and it states: “A psalm, a song for the Shabbat day” /b (Psalms 92:1), meaning b a day, /b i.e., one thousand years, b that is entirely Shabbat. And it says /b in explanation of the equation between one day and one thousand years: b “For a thousand years in Your eyes are but like yesterday when it is past, /b and like a watch in the night” (Psalms 90:4)., b The school of Eliyahu taught: Six thousand years is /b the duration of b the world. Two thousand /b of the six thousand years are characterized by b chaos; two thousand /b years are characterized by b Torah, /b from the era of the Patriarchs until the end of the mishnaic period; and b two thousand years /b are b the period of /b the coming of b the Messiah. /b |
