	Messiah
		An Egyptian messiah is said to have gathered together 30,000 adherents, whom he summoned to the Mount of Olives, opposite Jerusalem, promising that at his command the walls of Jerusalem would fall down, and that he and his followers would enter and possess themselves of the city.
		Unlike these Messiahs, who expected their people's deliverance to be achieved through divine intervention, Menahem, the son of Judas the Galilean and grandson of Hezekiah, the leader of the Zealots, who had troubled Herod, was a warrior.
		Another Messiah of the Shabbethaians was Löbele Prossnitz (a partizan of Mordecai), whose theory was that God had resigned the dominion of the world to the "pious one," i.e., the one who had entered into the depths of the Cabala.

	Jewish Messiah
		The concept of the messiah in Judaism is discussed in the Jewish eschatology entry.
		In Hebrew the messiah is often referred to as Melekh HaMoshiach, literally "Annointed King".
		Many of his views on the messiah are discussed in his "Mishneh Torah", his 14 volume compendium of Jewish law.

	The Messianic prophecies List
		Daniel 11: 21-22 also predicts that the Messiah (Prince of the covenant) would be alive during the Roman empire and that he would be killed by the Romans.
		Instead, the sultan threatened Shabbetai with execution and the "Messiah" was given the choice of death or apostasy.
		He is rejected as the Messiah by current Jews because he did not bring peace to the earth or deliver the Jews from their enemies.

	Greatest Military Leaders List George S. Patton Historical Society Library
		Messiahs, diplomats, intellectuals, and philosophers have contributed to the twists and turns of history, but they have flourished only when protected by military leaders who could ensure the survival of their way of life.
		Some on the list lived centuries ago, and the test of time has validated their perpetual influence through the ages.
		The status of the more recent military figures included on the list is subject to the passage of time, world events, and the emergence of other new leaders.

	Rav Kook on Sabbatiansim (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		While it is not at all clear that Rav Kook includes in his list of Messiahs-in-potentia the likes of Shabbetai Zevi, perhaps reserving this distinction for a Bar Kochba revered by Rabbi Akiba, this does not dull the daring of the thought.
		None of the unsuccessful Messiahs’ attempts at redemption were in vein; all contribute in some sense to the final Redemption.
		Though Messiah himself is not portrayed by Rav Kook as abrogating Mosaic law, the entire phenomenon of Messianism is painted in distinctly antinomian tones.

	The Jewish Messiahs: From the Galilee to Crown Heights. - Jews for Jesus
		The person assuming the role of messiah addresses the situation of the day, offers complete change, and issues a call to follow which is fueled by the emotional characteristic of desperation.
		Jesus is included in his list of messiahs but the gospel accounts are reduced to a bare minimum.
		As far as Lenowitz's observation that the times produce the fertile ground for the sprouting up of messiahs, we have the testimony of Scripture that when the fullness of time had come, God sent forth His son, born of a woman, born under the Law (Galatians 4:4).

	Hidden_Pavilions7.html
		They viewed one Messiah as a priest-king, in the Tradition of Melchizedek, which is, from their point of view, passed through the Levitical priesthood, through Aaron, Moses's brother and God's prophet, and another, who is a King in the image of David and through David's seed, Messiah ben David.
		To read the list of the Rabbis concerning the things Jesus did not do in fulfilling prophesy, which we include in a later chapter, is enlightening to say the least.
		Reading their list of false messiahs who have come, one is shocked to find that many others, from the rabbis' point of view, were more credible as Messiahs than Jesus.

	Failed Messiahs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Throughout Jewish history, many charismatic leaders have come forth to claim that they are the true Messiah; the Son of God.
		They were feeling oppressed by the Romans and awaited the long-hoped for redemption in the form of the Messiah.
		While Jews were in a vulnerable state, many false messiahs attempted to convince the community that they were the real thing.

	Jewish Messiah - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		One Jewish understanding of moshiach ("the messiah") is based on the writings of Maimonides, (the Rambam).
		Most Orthodox Jews maintain that Jews are obligated to accept 13 Principles of Faith which is based on the Prophets, including an unwavering belief in the coming of the messiah.
		We dedicate ourselves, as did the generations of Jews who went before us, to work and wait for that day when "They shall not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.

	Reactions - Chamish
		Between the two world wars, there roamed the streets of Jerusalem a man who made a nuisance of himself, pestering the populace that he was the Messiah.
		Their sparks were scattered and seek a living, enduring correction (tikkun) in the foundation of David, King of Israel, "the breath of our nostrils, the anointed (meshiah) of God.
		Unlike the Sabbatian who revels in the antinomianism of Messianism, Rav Kook,s ideal is the reunification of two traditions that have grown apart, the legal tradition of Moses and the extralegal tradition of Messiah.

	Remsberg's List of writers that did not mention Jesus is bogus!
		Amateur skeptics like to pass lists around that they borrow from outdated and irrelevant sources written by kidney specialists; one of these is a list of writers contemporary with Jesus who are alleged to have been mysteriously silent about him.
		You'll find this list repeated on dozens of skeptical sites (and in Freke and Gandy's Jesus Mysteries) with gloats and smiles stapled to it, but the ultimate source of the list is John Remsberg and his book, The Christ.
		The question Remsberg never answers is, "Why should any of these people have mentioned Jesus?" The list is presented flat, as though it is obvious that merely by being in the same century as Jesus, some irresistible and mysterious force requires these writers to make mention of him.

	POCM > The Triumph of Christianity > before christ
		As early as the second century BC the "Teacher of Righteousness" taught his followers at Qumran that they were living in the last days, and that they should look forward to the coming of the Messiah in fulfillment of prophecy.
		I know that the last days and the coming Messiah in fulfillment of prophecy all sound familiar, but remember, these folks were not Christians.
		Celsus (who wrote a book refuting Christianity) says each of these guys was a Jewish messiah who fulfilled the same prophecies Jesus supposedly did.

		The Jewish populace was full of glee at hearing such happy news, and in the ardor of its belief, in the insanity of its religious intoxication, shouted fervently "Long live the Jewish king, our Messiah." A maniacal ecstasy took possession of the Jewish mind.
		Wherever the messages of the Messiah came, there the Jews instituted fast-days according to the cabalistic regulations of Nathan the prophet, and afterward abandoned themselves to gross intemperance.

		RICHARD: Hence all the wars and murders and rapes and tortures and domestic violence and child abuse and suicides and the such-like are perpetuated by Gurus and the God-Men, the Masters and the Messiahs, the Avatars and the Saviours and the Saints and the Sages forever and a day.
		Your justifying/excusing of the Gurus and the God-Men, the Masters and the Messiahs, the Avatars and the Saviours and the Saints and the Sages is specifically why there is still no global peace-on-earth.
		Discarding all of the beliefs that have held humankind in thralldom for aeons, the way has now been discovered that cuts through the ‘Tried and True’ and enables anyone to be, for the first time, a fully free and autonomous individual living in utter peace and tranquillity, beholden to no-one.

		Israel's powerbrokers are the descendants of the false prophet Shabtai Tzvi, who, on June 18, 1666, in Gaza declared that he was the Messiah of the Jews.
		The proclamation from Gaza was issued not by a leader of Hamas, but rather by the 17th-century Jewish kabbalist Nathan of Gaza, who in 1665 became the major prophet of the infamous false messiah from Izmir, Shabbetai Zevi.
		The proclamation's rebuke was not part of Ariel Sharon's argument for evacuating Jewish settlers from Gaza, but of a ruling by Rabbi Jacob Sasportas, the most outspoken and tireless opponent of the Sabbatean messianic outbreak.
