Heshbonot HaGe'ula

I was browsing some Mashiah forums in Hebrew, and I came across this forum which 1 forum participant linked to the book called חשבונות הגאולה. This book, written by חיים שבילי in תשכ"ד (the year 1964), is a fascinating read. It details how the Ge'ula will occur in his vision - in 1964 terms.

Although most of his predictions didn't occur at the time that he predicted, these predictions still have much relevance to today, I believe.

Here is a link to download the original PDF in Hebrew.
