Mashiach Ben David and Mashiach Ben Yosef, summarized.

explain the difference between Messiah ben David and Messiah ben Joseph. The Gamara in Maseches Sukkah says that there's going to be two Messiahs. One is Messiah ben David, which the Torah already talks about, that comes from the descendant of King David. And then there's Messiah ben Joseph. Messiah ben Joseph will come first. He will start fighting the wars of God um and uh the this is going to be part of Gog u Magog. But he is not the ultimate salvation in itself. In fact, he may even die during the war based on the prayers and actions of the Jewish people as far as righteousness is concerned. But the Messiah ben David, he will never die. Uh he has the spark of the soul of Moshe Rabbeinu and King David. Uh and uh he will ultimately fight the final war and defeat all of the uh uh enemies of God, which include both Jews and non-Jews. How could it include both Jews and non-Jews? The non-Jewish people that are enemies of God that are going to fight against him because they're not going to want him to be the king of the world. They're not going to want uh the Torah to lead their They're the Amaleks. They're the anti-Semites. They're the enemies of God. Uh but Jews that he will fight against them, they're called the Erev Rav. And these Erev Rav are Jews that are anti-Torah. Jews that are atheist, Jews that are lefty liberals, Jews that are uh in so many words fighting against the Torah. And therefore they will not want this uh ultimate righteous and religious Jew that's the Messiah uh to lead. So, they're going to fight him, too. Uh and uh Beruach PIV Mitrasha, he will not need to fight with weapons and rockets and machines and AI. He simply with the word that comes out of his mouth will defeat the enemy. So, this is not going to be the type of war that you've ever seen uh imagined in some movie in Hollywood. Uh it's going to be beyond anything that the world has ever seen. But, it's going to be a multi-part war. Uh and the climax of the war is going to be uh according to the Gaon mi Vilna, it's going to be less than 10 minutes. Some say 8 minutes, some say 9 minutes, some say 12 minutes, but more or less around that 10-minute mark. That's the climax of the war. But, to get to the climax of the war, the Chofetz Chaim says it's going to be a series of wars. A series of wars that already began uh nearly a uh over 100 years ago in World War I.
