The Baal Shem Tov arrived at a pivotal point for the Jewish masses, awakening the simple Jews and their leaders from the deep slumber of galus and desperation, towards the light and warmth of Chassidus, bringing the Jewish people ultimately on their final way towards the geulah.

There are many riddles and enigmas surrounding the coming of Moshiach and the events that will come to pass in the prelude to those days. The exact date of Moshiach’s coming is one of the most intriguing, yet strangely attracting questions that the chachamim have alluded to throughout the generations. The reason for this might very well be because it is a riddle. A riddle found towards the end of chapter 12 of Daniel.
