יְחַיֵּנוּ מִיֹּמָיִם בַּיּוֹם הַשְּׁלִישִׁי יְקִמֵנוּ
וְנִֽחְיֶה לְפָנָֽיו:
What does Rashi say about Hosea 6:2? He will revive from the
two days. He will strengthen us from the retributions which have passed over us
from the two sanctuaries that were destroyed.
“In the third day He will raise us up” has to do with the
Messianic era, according to Sanhedrin 97a. We begin the Messianic era in the
victorious light of Moshiach’s conquering the kever or grave. We know that
Moshiach’s kever is mentioned in two places, Psalm 16:10
where Moshiach’s body will not see corruption, rotting
[שַחַת] and also Isaiah 53:9 where Moshiach’s kever (grave) is mentioned, but
only because our redemption requires it, since the innocent Moshiach is cut off
out of the land of the living as our asham guilt offering for our sins. The
hellish curse of the Torah that was aimed at our transgressions (Deut.27:26)
fell on Moshiach as our temurah substitute (Isaiah 53:4-5) scapegoat (Isaiah
53:12; Lev 16:22 carrying away our sin).
שַׁדְרַךְ מֵישַׁךְ וַֽעֲבֵד נְגוֹ גֻּבְרַיָּא אִלֵּךְ
לָא־שָׂמֽוּ עֲֽלָיךְ [עֲֽלָךְ] מַלְכָּא טְעֵם לֵֽאלָהָיךְ [לֵֽאלָהָךְ] לָא
פָֽלְחִין וּלְצֶלֶם
דַּֽהֲבָא דִּי הֲקֵימְתָּ לָא סָגְדִֽין:
Daniel 3:12 “Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego...these men, O
king, have disregarded thee; they serve [pey-lamed-chet, serve as deity] not thy
g-ds, nor worship the golden tzelem (image) which thou hast set up.”
חָזֵה הֲוֵית בְּחֶזְוֵי לֵֽילְיָא וַֽאֲרוּ עִם־עֲנָנֵי
שְׁמַיָּא כְּבַר
אֱנָשׁ אָתֵה הֲוָא וְעַד־עַתִּיק יֽוֹמַיָּא מְטָה וּקְדָמוֹהִי
הַקְרְבֽוּהִי: יד וְלֵהּ יְהִיב שָׁלְטָן וִיקָר וּמַלְכוּ וְכֹל עַמְמַיָּא
אֻמַיָּא וְלִשָּֽׁנַיָּא לֵהּ יִפְלְחוּן שָׁלְטָנֵהּ שָׁלְטָן עָלַם דִּי־לָא
יֶעְדֵּה וּמַלְכוּתֵהּ דִּי־לָא תִתְחַבַּֽל:
I was beholding in visions of the night, and, hinei, one like a
Bar Enosh (Ben Adam,
i.e., Moshiach) came with the clouds of Shomayim (Heaven), and came to the
Atik Yomin (Ancient of
Days, i.e., Hashem), and before Him He was brought. And there was given Him
(Moshiach) dominion and honor and sovereignty that all peoples, Goyim, tongues,
should pey-lamed-chet
(serve, reverence as deity) Him (Moshiach, the Bar Enosh of the Atik Yomin). His
dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and His
(Messianic) Kingdom
that which shall not be destroyed. (Daniel
7:13-14).
So here we see the Moshiach shall be served as
deity but not be an idol and that the whole world will be brought before His
Tribunal for judgment.
His personal name is revealed in the Tanakh to the Prophet
Zecharyah (Zecharyah 6:11-12) “Yehoshua (Yeshua,
Ezra 3:8) hinei Tzemach Shmo.”
R.Joshua ben Levi says (Moshiach’s) Name is Tzemach--Jer.Talmud
Berachot Chapter 2 Halacha 4.
