The Golus we find ourselves in today, as we wait for the Geulah, 
is compared to the Midbar where the Yidden wandered, waiting 
to enter Eretz Yisroel. The desert they waited and wandered in is 
described in Parshas Eikev as "...that great and awesome desert, 
[in which were] snakes, vipers and scorpions, and drought, 
where there was no water". These descriptions also refer to our 
"Midbar", our present Golus, and to the obstacles that one can 
face while in the "desert" of Golus. 
In order to go out of Golus, we must first recognize and know 
what Golus is. Only then can we know how to get out of it and 
get to Geulah. "Yedias Hamachla Chatzi Harefua" - Knowing the 
sickness is half its cure. 
"Great (desert)": A desert is defined in Torah as "Makom Lo 
Yoshav Odom Sham" - A place not inhabited by man. Since only 
Yidden are referred to in the Torah as "Man" - "Odom", a desert 
then is a place where all the nations, besides Yidden, live. Because 
the non-Jew greatly outnumbers the Jew, a Jew can think that it is 
a "Great Desert". This is the first obstacle, first step in a Jew's fall. 
When he begins looking at the non-Jews as "greater" than him 
and himself as "small". 
"Awesome desert": This is another step in Golus. He starts 
fearing (Yirah - Norah) the world, the great desert that surrounds 
him. It seems to him that the world and the non-Jews have power 
over him and he always worries "what will the Goyim think, say, 
do..." 
"Snakes": Then, he begins experiencing heat and passion for 
worldly pleasures, like a snake whose venom burns. It starts 
" 
eating and gnawing at him from the inside and controlling him. 
"Vipers": The increase of heat and passion for worldly pleasures 
causes a decrease of his passion and inspiration for Judaism and 
Kedusha. His inner flame fades. It gets consumed and absorbed by 
his other pleasures. 
"Scorpions": Any flame left in his heart at this stage, even not 
of Kedusha, could still turn him back and reignite his passion for 
Kedusha. However now he is like a scorpion whose venom cools. 
He is taken over and controlled by coolness. He does not get 
inspired or reignited. The spark of fire in his heart is getting frozen. 
"Drought, where there was no water": In this stage, he has 
fallen so low that even when he ultimately gets "thirsty" - drought, 
he doesn't "get it" and realize that what he is thirsty for is water - 
Torah (which is compared to water). 
How can one get so low? Where does it start? From "Great 
(Desert)". From a Yid, even secretly in a small corner of his heart, 
giving chashivus to the world, the "desert", thinking that it is a 
"Great Desert". This opens the way to the whole process. 
In order to successfully "cross" this "desert" in peace, we need to 
be very careful from falling into the first trap - "Great (Desert)". 
We should not look at the desert surrounding us as "great", 
then we wonโ€™t fall into the traps that follow it; begin fearing it, 
experience passion for it etc. We should instead remember and 
remind ourselves that we are specially chosen by Hashem from all 
the nations and nothing and no one has any power over us. May 
Hashem bring us Moshiach and the Geulah immediately!

As usual the Rebbe would be Magiah the Sicha from the 
previous Shabbos. Among the corrections on the Sicha of 
Parshas Chukas 5751, are the following:

LIVING LESSONS 
Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka A"h often said that Moshiach is in this 
world and just has to be revealed. She would not elaborate. 
In connection with this, she once told the Chassidic story that 
transpired with Rโ€™ Menachem Mendel of Vitebsk, while residing 
in Yerushalayim. 
Someone went up to Har HaZeisim and blew a Shofar. News quickly 
spread that Moshiach had come. When Rโ€™ Menachem Mendel heard 
the news, he opened the window of his room and sniffed the air. He 
proclaimed, โ€œNo, Moshiach has not come.โ€ 
The Rebbetzin said, โ€œpeople wonder why he had to open the window. 
Couldnโ€™t he tell whether Moshiach had come by sniffing the air inside 
his room? The answer is: the scent of Moshiach was always present in his 
room, for Moshiach was there!
ื“ืืœืื™ ื’ืœื•ืช 
In the Sicha of Shabbos Parshas Eikev 5744, the Rebbe quotes someone for declaring that just as Moshiach didn't arrive in the 
past 1900 years, so too he won't necessarily arrive in the coming 1900 years. 
But the Rebbe is more disgusted with the Lubavitcher who studies Chassidus and is involved in activities to hasten the coming of 
Moshiach, and when he hears this statement he becomes confused. "Why are you confused? We already spoke more than one hundred and 
one times the proofs that every Yid begs that Moshiach come now, not in a few months and most certainly not in a few years, Rachmono 
Litzlan! Moshiach should come immediately!" 
Then the Rebbe discusses the 'proofs' that when a Yid asks for Moshiach, he intends that it should be now. The basis for this is not from 
I await him every day that He shall come", for this could be explained that "every day I - ืื—ื›ื” ืœื• ื‘ื›ืœ ื™ื•ื ืฉื™ื‘ื the 'Ani Maamin' which states 
await his arrival in the distant future". 
Speedily cause the scion of David Your servant - ืืช ืฆืžื— ื“ื•ื“ ืขื‘ื“ืš ืžื”ืจื” ืชืฆืžื™ื— Rather the basis is from the fact that after asking in Mincha 
May our eyes behold Your return to Zion in mercy, when Maariv comes and Moshiach - ื•ืชื—ื–ื™ื ื” ืขื ื™ื ื• ื‘ืฉื•ื‘ืš ืœืฆื™ื•ืŸ ื‘ืจื—ืžื™ื to flourish, and 
has not yet arrived he reiterates his request. This is clearly a sound proof that when asking for Moshiach in Mincha - he intended that 
Moshiach come before the time for Maariv arrives.

The desert they waited and wandered in is described in Parshas Eikev as "...that great and awesome desert, [in which were] snakes, vipers and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water". These descriptions also refer to our "Midbar", our present Golus, and to the obstacles that one can face while in the "desert" of Golus. In order to go out of Golus, we must first recognize and know what Golus is. Only then can we know how to get out of it and get to Geulah. "Yedias Hamachla Chatzi Harefua" - Knowing the sickness is half its cure. "Great (desert)": A desert is defined in Torah as "Makom Lo Yoshav Odom Sham" - A place not inhabited by man. Since only Yidden are referred to in the Torah as "Man" - "Odom", a desert then is a place where all the nations, besides Yidden, live. Because the non-Jew greatly outnumbers the Jew, a Jew can think that it is a "Great Desert". This is the first obstacle, first step in a Jew's fall. When he begins looking at the non-Jews as "greater" than him and himself as "small". "Awesome desert": This is another step in Golus. He starts fearing (Yirah - Norah) the world, the great desert that surrounds him. It seems to him that the world and the non-Jews have power over him and he always worries "what will the Goyim think, say, do..." "Snakes": Then, he begins experiencing heat and passion for worldly pleasures, like a snake whose venom burns. It starts " eating and gnawing at him from the inside and controlling him. "Vipers": The increase of heat and passion for worldly pleasures causes a decrease of his passion and inspiration for Judaism and Kedusha. His inner flame fades. It gets consumed and absorbed by his other pleasures. "Scorpions": Any flame left in his heart at this stage, even not of Kedusha, could still turn him back and reignite his passion for Kedusha. However now he is like a scorpion whose venom cools. He is taken over and controlled by coolness. He does not get inspired or reignited. The spark of fire in his heart is getting frozen. "Drought, where there was no water": In this stage, he has fallen so low that even when he ultimately gets "thirsty" - drought, he doesn't "get it" and realize that what he is thirsty for is water - Torah (which is compared to water). How can one get so low? Where does it start? From "Great (Desert)". From a Yid, even secretly in a small corner of his heart, giving chashivus to the world, the "desert", thinking that it is a "Great Desert". This opens the way to the whole process. In order to successfully "cross" this "desert" in peace, we need to be very careful from falling into the first trap - "Great (Desert)". We should not look at the desert surrounding us as "great", then we wonโ€™t fall into the traps that follow it; begin fearing it, experience passion for it etc. We should instead remember and remind ourselves that we are specially chosen by Hashem from all the nations and nothing and no one has any power over us. May Hashem bring us Moshiach and the Geulah immediately! ื›ืชื‘ ื™ื“ ืงื•ื“ืฉ As usual the Rebbe would be Magiah the Sicha from the previous Shabbos. Among the corrections on the Sicha of Parshas Chukas 5751, are the following: which translates "we will go to "ื’ื™ื™ืขืŸ ืื™ืŸ ืืจืฅ ื”ืงื•ื“ืฉ" Instead of the Holy Land", the Rebbe ืคืœื™ืขืŸ ืขื" wrote we will fly with the clouds of heaven to Yerushalayim "ืขื ื ื™ ืฉืžื™ื and Beis Hamikdash Hashlishi. ื•ื”ืงื™ืฆื• ื•ืจื ื ื• ืฉื•ื›ื ื™ ืขืคืจ, ืื•ืŸ ื“ืขืจ ื‘ืขืœ ื”ื’ืื•ืœื” ื‘ืชื•ื›ื ื•ื‘ืจืืฉื, ืฆื•ื–ืืžืขืŸ ืžื™ื˜ ืืœืข ืื™ื“ืŸ - ื ืฉืžื•ืช ื‘ืจื™ืื•ืช ื‘ื’ื•ืคื™ื ื‘ืจื™ืื™ื - ื•ื‘ื ืขืจื™ื ื• ื•ื‘ื–ืงื™ื ื ื• ื•ื‘ื‘ื ื™ื ื• ื•ื‘ื‘ื ื•ืชื™ื ื•, ืคืœื™ืขืŸ ืขื ืขื ื ื™ ืฉืžื™ื ืื™ืŸ ืืจืฅ ื”ืงื•ื“ืฉ. LIVING LESSONS Rebbetzin Chaya Mushka A"h often said that Moshiach is in this world and just has to be revealed. She would not elaborate. In connection with this, she once told the Chassidic story that transpired with Rโ€™ Menachem Mendel of Vitebsk, while residing in Yerushalayim. Someone went up to Har HaZeisim and blew a Shofar. News quickly spread that Moshiach had come. When Rโ€™ Menachem Mendel heard the news, he opened the window of his room and sniffed the air. He proclaimed, โ€œNo, Moshiach has not come.โ€ The Rebbetzin said, โ€œpeople wonder why he had to open the window. Couldnโ€™t he tell whether Moshiach had come by sniffing the air inside his room? The answer is: the scent of Moshiach was always present in his room, for Moshiach was there!
  • 2. ื“ืืœืื™ ื’ืœื•ืช In the Sicha of Shabbos Parshas Eikev 5744, the Rebbe quotes someone for declaring that just as Moshiach didn't arrive in the past 1900 years, so too he won't necessarily arrive in the coming 1900 years. But the Rebbe is more disgusted with the Lubavitcher who studies Chassidus and is involved in activities to hasten the coming of Moshiach, and when he hears this statement he becomes confused. "Why are you confused? We already spoke more than one hundred and one times the proofs that every Yid begs that Moshiach come now, not in a few months and most certainly not in a few years, Rachmono Litzlan! Moshiach should come immediately!" Then the Rebbe discusses the 'proofs' that when a Yid asks for Moshiach, he intends that it should be now.
