Psak Din of the Rambam

According to the psak din of the Rambam, Yudel Krinsky is the confirmed Moshiach. The Rambam carefully details the requirements that Moshiach must fulfill and Yudel has fulfilled every one. The Rambam writes (hilchos melochim, 11:4):

"A king shall assume power." In his will, the Rebbe appointed Yudel to be his successor as the nesi ha-dor. The Rambam writes clearly in hilchos shigegos, 15:6, "eizehu nosi...zeh melech" ("Who is a Nosi? This is a king").

"Of the Davidic monarchy." How will we determine his lineage to Dovid? The Rambam writes in Iggeres Taiman (ch. 4) that "ho-osos v'ha-mofsim she-yeiro'u al yodo hein hein ho-re'oyos al amitas yichuso" ("The miracles and wonders that will be performed by Moshiach — these are the very proofs of his true pedigree"). This was certainly fulfilled by Yudel, proving conclusively that he is the true heir to the throne of David.

The Rebbe placed Yudel as president of the Lubavitch organization, Agudas Chasidei Chabad. This organization, under the leadership of Yudel, controls three main bodies, Merkos L'Inyonei Chinuch, the educational arm of the Lubavitch movement, Machne Israel, the movement's primary fundraising organization, and Kehot Publication Society, the Lubavitch publishing house.

"Delved in Torah," this is Kehot.

"And active in mitzvos," this is Merkos.

"And will compel all Israel to follow it." Since Yudel became Nosi nine years ago, he has sent out hundreds and hundreds of shluchim all over the world to spread the observance of Torah and mitzvos.

"And to fortify its support," this is Machne Israel.

"And will fight G-d's wars," these are the many legal battles that Yudel is compelled to constantly engage in to preserve the leadership of Lubavitch.

"If he does so and is victorious." Yudel has seen success and continues to succeed in his milchamos hashem to preserve his hegemony over the Rebbe's mosdos.

"And will build a temple in his locale." In maseches Bovo Basro, 53b, the gemoro writes that only the completion of the building process is considered building and this is when the doors are affixed, therefore, only he who affixes the doors is regarded as the one who built the structure. When the new doors were put up in 770, Yudel personally installed them thereby fulfilling Moshiach's task of building a mikdosh bimkomo.

"And will assemble the isolated of Israel." Yudel has sent shluchim to the four corners of the Earth assuring that no matter how remote the location no Jew can be isolated anywhere on the planet. Yudel has put an end to the concept of an isolated Jew by assembling the Jews in their locations throughout the world.

"Then he is certainly Moshiach." Yudel has met every one of the Rambam's authoritative criteria for becoming Moshiach, proving that he is the true and final redeemer.
