5778 is the Year of the Coming of Mashiach, 'I Will Go Up in the Palm'

"'Moses began to explain this Torah' (Deuteronomy 1), Moses waited 40 years to receive the Torah. The Rebbe (Rebbe Nachman) brings down all the instructions for this generation through Rav Sukkot, who merited to serve me for 50 years. We met for the first time at a brit at Rav David Kramer's. His father (Rav Moshe Kramer) merited that our Rebbe would pass everything through him, for until the arrival of Mashiach, there will not be another such soul. He merited to be an 'ibur' (a spiritual impregnation) of our Rebbe, literally."

"5778 is the year of the arrival of Mashiach. The Netiv said, 'Where I gather, there will be the borders.' In the year 5642 (1882), no one dreamed of a state, no one dreamed of borders. The year of 'I will climb the palm tree' (this is the name for the aliyah of Jews from Yemen who ascended to the Land of Israel in the years 5641-5642 (1881-1882). The immigrants connected their aliyah with the verse 'I said, I will climb the palm tree' (Song of Songs 7:9), because the word 'batamar' (the palm tree) is an anagram of 5642). This is the greatest year that ever was, the year of the aliyah from Yemen, but they put them in caves near the grave of Rav Ovadiah of Bartenura (the commentator on the Mishnah). The immigrants from Yemen lived there for a year or two."

"Prayer is only for the Jews, but today even among us, they do not know how to pray. One must say word after word in prayer, otherwise, the abundance does not descend. Only Rebbe Nachman says, 'I will make known Your faithfulness with my mouth' (Psalms 89:2); faith is in the mouth, not in the heart. People say, 'I have faith in my heart, I am clean, a pure heart.' Faith is 'I will make known Your faithfulness with my mouth,' not to lie in bed or listen to the phone and continue sleeping. Faith is to get up and say the Korbanot (sacrificial offerings), because everyone owes a guilt offering, owes a sin offering, and if not in this incarnation, then in a previous incarnation."
