The book of Daniel contains most everything that John the Revelator saw about the “latter days” — as the prophet Joel describes our time frame now — including the little horn as Antichrist.

This is because God always confirms His Word; He cannot contract Himself.

You need to put your Rabbi's prophecy to the test of the Scriptures. There are a plethora of tests — including a test where God says that “even if the prophetic word comes true” then you are to determine if this man prophecies by a familiar spirit or from God by ascertaining how this person lives his life and if he wants you to worship in non proscribed ways, outside the purview of the living God of Abraham Isaac and Jacob:

Punishment of Apostates

Deuteronomy 13 “If there arises among you a prophet or a dreamer of dreams, and he gives you a sign or a wonder, and the sign or the wonder comes to pass, of which he spoke to you, saying, ‘Let us go after other gods’—which you have not known—‘and let us serve them,’ you shall not listen to the words of that prophet or that dreamer of dreams, for the Lord your God is testing you to know whether you love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul.”

That's just one test of scripture for your rabbi's prophecy. There are other ones, and they are very deep and interesting... such as the one where God warns against false prophets who steal the words of His real prophets... it's a fascinating thing to see how God is concerned with even your extra Biblical rabbi's prophecy.

God cannot contradict His word, and this is a test for all prophecies given since the canon of scripture was sealed.

Extra-biblical texts or prophecies outside the OT canon are also forbidden by Solomon, it is not just a “Christian” concept:

Proverbs 30:6
Do not add to His words Or He will reprove you, and you will be proved a liar.

Your mentioning of all the OT scriptures about how God is a spirit and “not a man” belies the entirety of the Messianic scriptures in the OT.

The Messiah is God incarnate; and this is why our discussion is so important today.

Jews who do not read or understand the OT scriptures — will most likely be deceived by the Anti Christ or “Counterfeit Christ” into thinking that just because there are supernatural miracles, then this must be God, this must be the Messiah we were promised.

Moses, King Saul and many many others in the OT showed that there are TWO sources of supernatural miracles: God and His created being, Satan.

Our secular world denies God and therefore all supernatural occurrences; this is the trick that can and will be used by Satan when he is set loose to delude the whole world.

Finally, those aged priests and Levites who were crying at the sight of newly laid foundation of the 2nd Temple in Ezra 3 were publicly wailing because they'd seen the glory of the Temple and knew their appointed positions within it — and so this is a lament of repentance, of loss, of sorrow that this is where they have ended up. With just a foundation laid amidst the rubble of the city walls, the Temple itself was yet to be rebuilt when they cried out. Because of who they were, their wailing had to be a lament of their own personal sin and their lack of fidelity to the living God that contributed to this ruinous state of affairs for the nation.

Their spiritual ruin was reflected in the ruin of the 1st Temple and the rubble in which it was being rebuilt. I would wail loudly, too.

And then, since the veil over the Holiest of Holies was anywhere from 6 inches to THREE FEET in thickness, every priest there at the time of Christ's death on the cross who saw it tear in half supernaturally — they knew that God's spirit was still in that place.

Not sure what you are trying to say about God's spirit not being in the Holiest of Holies, in a physical place. But thanks for the interesting discussion.

The messiah being God incarnate is the biggest lie told to man. No man can or ever will be God and God will never be a man.

He is Spirit and indivisible.

Read Deut. 6:4 “Listen, Israel. The Lord, our God, is one.”

When the Messiah shows up and says he is not God, Christians are not going to be happy about that. The false messiah, on the other hand, WILL say he is God.

You should check out this blog about how the media makes Obama out to be the messiah with some proclaiming he is God.
