In this class we will look at the 14th and 15th blessings of the Shemoneh Esrei (Amida).
I answer these questions and more:
- Both blessings refer to Mashiach. Why are they two separate berachot?
- Why were the Men of the Great Assembly praying for Jerusalem if they had just returned to Jerusalem?
- Are we supposed to act on this prayer and rebuild Jerusalem ourselves?
- Who is the Messiah?
