Quotation from Asher Ginsberg “And if this be the Messiah: I do not wish to see his coming” — 1913

Russian Jewish writer and philosopher, in a letter written in 1913.

Author : Thematics :
" Apart from the political danger, I can't put up with the idea that our brethren are morally capable of behaving in such a way to humans of another people, and unwittingly the thought comes to my mind: if it is so now, what will be our relation to the others if in truth we shall achieve at the end of times power in Eretz Yisrael? And if this be the Messiah: I do not wish to see his coming. "
