Questions and Answers on Moshiach based upon Rambam's Laws of Kings addresses several perplexing questions people often have regarding Moshiach's arrival, with a unique and fresh perspective based upon Maimonides' discussion of this topic in Chapters 11 and 12 of his magnum opus on Jewish law entitled Mishneh Torah. The questions cover such topics as what is the process through which Moshiach is revealed, whether Moshiach will need to perform miracles, Elijah the Prophet's message regarding his arrival, why Moshiach must be a human being, can Moshiach rise from the dead, how will we be able to identify him, and many other fascinating questions. Both the layman and the advanced scholar will benefit from the insights into this timely yet little understood area of Jewish Law. This latest version contains the original approbations by Chief Rabbis Ovadia Yosef and Mordechai Eliyahu, as well as other leading rabbis, appearing in Rabbi Volpo's landmark book Yechi Hamelech Hamoshiach, from which these questions were adapted for the English reader.
