The Chatam Sofer and the Rebbe of Kretchnif zt"l Explain the Connection Between the Coronavirus and the Revelation of the Mashiach

The Emergence of Yosef the Tzaddik of Our Generation from Prison Straight to the Throne Will Lead to the Solution of Pharaoh's Dream
Already two years ago, the 'Noam Yisrael' of Kretchnif Kiryat Gat zt"l foresaw the tiny virus that would turn and disrupt the entire world. "Hashem alone will fight the War of Gog and Magog"
In Parshat Miketz of the year 5778, the Rebbe of Kretchnif spoke about how Hashem can send a virus, and the whole world will be in the state of "we were like dreamers."
These are his holy words, "And this is Pharaoh dreaming, that Hashem will bring something to the world that is like a dream without substance and cannot be seen, for example, Hashem can send a small virus and spread it throughout the world, and it will turn and disrupt the entire world from one end to the other, through a dream, despite all the technology of our times, and all the nations of the world will be in the state of 'we were like dreamers' and nothing will help them."
The Rebbe zt"l further added, "And this is what will happen in the end of days, not through war, not by force, and not by intelligence, not by the Iranians nor by the Syrians, etc., but Hashem alone will fight the War of Gog and Magog, 'A horse is a false hope for salvation, and with all its strength it will not save,' but only one thing, 'Behold, the eye of Hashem is on those who fear Him, on those who hope for His kindness, to save their soul from death and to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waits for Hashem, He is our help and our shield, etc.' And through the return and closeness of the children of Israel to Hashem, they will be saved and redeemed in the complete redemption."

The Rebbe of Kretchnif zt"l interprets the arrival of the virus that disrupts the course of the world as Pharaoh's dream, and it is known that following Pharaoh's dream, Yosef was taken out of prison. And here in his words on the Book of Genesis (Chapter 37, Verse 2) the Chatam Sofer explains:
"Yosef was shepherding his brothers with the flock, and he was a youth with the sons of Bilhah, etc., and Yosef brought their bad report. It says that Yaakov placed him to associate with the sons of the maidservants to shepherd, and they handed him over as a youth and servant to the sons of the maidservants, and this is itself the bad report he brought - and with this, it is understood their saying, 'Will you indeed reign over us? Or will you indeed have dominion over us?' and they added to hate him for his dreams and for his words, meaning, for it is a principle in our hands that from prison one emerges to reign, meaning from the lowest depths royalty will sprout, as it says, 'He raises the poor from the dust,' the stone the builders rejected, etc., and therefore, since all of Yosef's intention and his reports were because he did not want to accept the yoke of his brothers, on the contrary, he wanted to rule over them, and how will he reign? This is 'Will you indeed reign over us? Or will you indeed have dominion over us?' Surely this is impossible, therefore they added to hate him for his dreams and for his words because they are contradictory. [Year 561]:
In fact, from the explanation of the Chatam Sofer and the Rebbe of Kretchnif, it emerges that the solution to the dream, that is, the solution to the coronavirus that disrupts and confuses the entire world, will occur through Yosef's emergence from prison to his royal throne. Because what happened to Yosef will also happen to our righteous Mashiach, as explained, "it is a principle in our hands that from prison one emerges to reign, meaning from the lowest depths royalty will sprout, as it says, 'He raises the poor from the dust'.
And the matter is simple to understand, for how suddenly do they rush and take Yosef out of prison after all the years in the pit? And this is through the dream that "coincidentally" comes to Pharaoh and there is no one to interpret the dream, only Yosef who is in prison.
And this is what our teacher the Rav shlit"a said in the last rays of light, that the main solution to the dream is not the interpretation of the dream but the solution is to reveal the tzaddik and make him king, then everything will naturally be resolved.
As our Rebbe says, the more the tzaddik descends into humiliation after humiliation, he will merit in contrast to rise to greatness after greatness... And as the Midrash says, "Just as they rushed Yosef from the pit to receive the kingdom, so too David was rushed from behind the sheep."
