For many years his followers had maintained that he was Moshiach -the Jewish Messiah and would usher in the Redemption. After his death Lubavitch divided into two opposing groups. While some messianists hold that the Rebbe died but is to be resurrected as the messiah, others hold that he is still alive, but concealed. The anti-messianists maintain that the Rebbe could have been Moshiach if God had willed it, but they disagree vehemently that as such he could come back from the dead. Using ethnographic data obtained by the author through twenty years of fieldwork, this book presents a social-psychological account of Lubavitcher Messianism and moves beyond the typical scholarly preoccupation with 'belief' and 'dissonance' to examine the role of rhetoric, religious experience and ritual in maintaining counterintuitive convictions. Through examining the parallels between early Christianity and messianism in Lubavitch this book provides a comprehensive perspective for examining messianism generally"--Bloomsbury Publishing. 410 0$aContinuum Studies in Jewish Thought 606 $aChurch history$yPrimitive and early church, ca. 30-600 606 $aHabad$xHistory$y21st century 606 $aMessiah$xJudaism 606 $aProphecy$xJudaism 606 $2Judaism 607 $aCrown Heights (New York, N.Y.)$xReligious life and customs$y21th century 607 $aStamford Hill (London, England)$xReligious life and customs$y21th century 615 0$aChurch history 615 0$aHabad$xHistory 615 0$aMessiah$xJudaism. 615 0$aProphecy$xJudaism. 676 $a296.8/3322 700 $aDein$b Simon$f1959-$01486643 801 0$bUtOrBLW 801 1$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910791786803321 996 $aLubavitcher messianism$93706217 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01200nam0 22002771i 450 001 UON00051677 005 20231205102228.649 010 $a08-248-1964-0 100 $a20020107d1999 |0itac50 ba 101 $aeng 102 $aUS 105 $a||||p ||||| 200 1 $aKaempfer's Japan$eTokugawa culture observed$fby Engelbert Kaempfer$gedited, translated and annotated by Beatrice M.
