פירוש על ישעיהו 59:20

And a redeemer shall come to Zion As long as Zion is in ruins, the redeemer has not yet come.

And a redeemer shall come to Zion – The redeemer will come to Zion to return the crown of Zion, the Holy Temple and the Sandhedrin. He will also come to those of Yaakov who turn from sin, to the children of exile who will then repent through the distress which presses down upon them. And if you say ‘how will the people survive until that time, isn’t there still a long wait?’ The next verse replies:

גואל Redeemer, that is, Messiah.

Unto them that turn from transgression. Comp. Every one that shall be found written in the book (Dan. 12:1)
