4 Kings vs. Mashiah Part 3
דבר אחר ויהי בימי אמרפל מלך שנער זו בבל
אריוך מלך אלסר זו יון כדרלעומר מלך
עילם זו מדי ותדעל מלך גוים זו מלכות אדום שהיא
מכתבת טירוניא מכל העכו״ם אמר רבי אלעזר
בר אבינא אם ראיתה מלכיות מתגרות אלו באלו צפה
לרגלו של משיח תדע שכן שהרי בימי אברהם ע"י שנתגרו
המלכיות אלו באלו באה הגאולה לאברהם
The end of the Midrash tells us that if nations start up with each other, you can expect Mashiah soon just as a Ge'ula came to Avraham when nations started up with each other. The Nezer Hakodesh explains it like he said earlier that Mashiah was saved for the final Ge'ula when Avraham saved Lot.
He then gives a more Kabbalistic explanation by saying that Mashiah's soul is hidden deep inside the outer forces, which are controlled by the angels of the nations. Because of this, it's impossible to free his soul from there and bring the Ge'ula closer. However, when wars are going on, the nations' ministering angels are distracted from Mashiah's soul, and he's able to free himself to bring the Ge'ula closer.
However, the beginning of this Midrash is also interesting, especially the idea that תדעל מלך גוים represents Edom. Rashi in Humash brings down a prior Midrash that says that "גוים" means that a bunch of people got together and they made a king from among themselves. In other words, it was the first country where the monarchy was not inherited, but it was similar to a democracy of sorts. This is similar to the Edom that we live in today.
President Obama wants to not just be the President of the United States - he wants to be the President of the World. In other words, he wants to be מלך גוים - a king over nations.
Much has been said about the gematria of ברק חוסיין אובאמה being 501, which is the same as ראש and ישמעאלים. However, if you use the 3 words of his name to add the כוללים, you get 504, which is the gematria of תדעל.
So, תדעל מלך גוים, aka President of the World - Barack Hussein Obama, is trying to destroy Avraham, aka the Jews of Eretz Yisrael by splitting up their land. However, he cannot get to them (although he keeps trying), so he captures the Jews of the Diaspora, by convincing almost 80% of them to vote for him, and meeting with "Peace" groups, like JStreet. Obama may know that Diaspora Jews are like Lot in that they hold the key to Mashiah's arrival in some hidden way (see the Kabbalistic explanation above). However, his plan is now being foiled by the Jews of Eretz Yisrael, who were against Obama from the start, and are showing the Diaspora Jews that Obama is not worth their support, thereby "saving" them from his clutches.
We will have to wait and see if he's going to further his battle against the Taliban, or start something with North Korea or Iran, but if he does, expect Mashiah to come soon thereafter.
Update: See אמת עכשיו who has a different opinion about this.

Thanks for posting this Yaak. I have been perplexed for some time on trying to figure out how the Mashiach's soul will be released. He will be virtually in a prison, unable to do anything until the appointed time. Again, like I have said before and you confirm, we have to wait for the wars. So we do it the hard way I guess.
Side note, don't you think that both us and the vatican are searching activly for this person? Since the poop has all our books, so to will they have an idea of what's happening.
Don't forget the Talmud states we will get the Mashiach we never wanted, so don't dispare too much over issues.

So based on this Midrash, when the U.S. is involved in wars, then Lot
(the repository of Moshiach's soul) can be freed.
Well, haven't we been at war since 9/11? Do you see anybody "freed"?
Or maybe the angel of the US is not distracted enough yet, so Lot is still trapped in the US trying to save his posessions and can't leave Sodom.
Rather than looking for a "worse war" to distract the angel,I suggest the real redemption will start when the US and its king experiences some "success" and becomes overconfident (either from a major turnaround
in the economy or a foreign policy triumph.)
At that point the arrogance of the king will surpass that of Paro,
and the plagues to redeem Klal Yisrael will begin. The forces
to redeem Klal yisrael can only be released on an extremely
arrogant and "powerful" king (in order to show the greatness of the
miracle. (The redemption process
will resemble yitzias mitzrayim). That is why Avraham gets the prophecy about theh geula
after defeating the 4 kings, to let him know that in the future,
the final redemption will also take place after a king (like Nimrod) becomes overconfident.
Anon, revealed shortly after 9/11, concealed, to be revealed for the last time. Source is the Rambam.
Yishar Koach! I think you got it right that תדעל stands for 504. He is the eigth of the left kings of Edom.
