Jai Guru Dev
We came across an interesting quote from the 1600’s. We are going to popularize this vision showing that with the group of 7,000 flyers in Israel we are preparing the ground for the Messiah to come and proclaim his blessings for all mankind. With best wishes.

About the Glory in Israel on the Arrival of the Messiah
“Know that we have a tradition of Kabalah that on that day when the Messiah King arrives, together with the gathering of the Diaspora he will find there in Israel 7,000 of the children of Israel.
“And on that day the dead[1] <#_ftn1> in Israel will rise and also on that day the walls of Jerusalem will go away, and he will build them again from precious stones and pearls. And then the dead who are in Israel will come back on their revival to a new spiritual creation. And also the 7,000 who are alive at that time, there, will also all be a new creation—a body of spirituality like the body of the first man before he had sinned, and like the bodies of Hanoch, Moses and Elisha, and they will all rove in the air and fly like eagles and all of this will be in front of those gathered from the Diaspora. And when this gathering will see their brothers become new creations and fly in the air to live in the Garden of Eden, to learn the scripture from the mouth of God, then they will gather together…
“And the Messiah King will reply [to the gathering of the Diaspora]… ‘God will give you immeasurable wealth as all silver and gold and precious stones and pearls that are drowned in any of the seas. That sea is ordered to bring it all to the sea of Jaffa…. Everything will come to the Sea of Jaffa and it will eject it and the Messiah King will distribute a share to each Tzadik[2] <#_ftn2> as he deserves… And also all the treasures under the Earth. The land will be made of holes so that all treasures and remedies will roll there and it will bring them to Israel to distribute them to the gathering of the Diaspora, to each one as he deserves, and they will be endowed with much wealth. But those who did not feel for their wealth and bodies and took care…of their spirits and souls, God will give them many favors to make them a new creation and lead them to [a Heaven inhabited by mortals]’.”
