Mashiach, Passover and Yom HaShem

Weekly Sidra: Bo (Go) Torah Portion: Shemot / Exodus 10:1-13:16 Haftorah: Yermiyahu / Jeremiah 46:13-28 ...It is the sacrifice of HaShem'S Passover, for that He passed over the houses of the children of Israel in Egypt, when He smote the Egyptians, and delivered our houses.' And the people bowed the head and worshipped. (Shemot / Exodus 12:27) This biblical concept of Yom HaShem (a day when HaShem reveals Himself via King Messiah), causing the wicked to be punished while the righteous are saved, this day is also known throughout the Hebrew Bible as HaShem's Day of Judgement (Yom HaDin). "The day of HaShem" is a general phrase of judgment that can describe the final eschatological judgment of the world, but more often describes any forthcoming day of judgment. Yom HaShem is known throughout Tanach as the day when HaShem reveals Himself via King Messiah, our Rabbi, causing the wicked to be punished, and the righteous to be saved. Yom HaShem is HaShem’s day of judgement. Before that day, it is necessary to do teshuva before redemption, otherwise HaShem’s revelation will lead to destruction. For example, when Yeshayahu foresees the destruction of Bavel (Isaiah 13:1-22), he consistently refers to that day as 'Yom HaShem' (see 13:6,9,13). While describing that calamity, Yeshayahu even compares Bavel (Babylon) to Sedom: "Bavel, glory of kingdoms, splendor of the Kassdim, shall become like Sedom and Amorah, overturned by...
