I think that’s likely true.

However, I’m skeptical he would have left a coded message

UNLESS JESUS HAD VISITED HIM PERSONALLY a la the Apostle Paul.

SCRIPTURE SAYS THOSE WHO SEEK GOD WHOLEHEARTEDLY

SHALL

FIND HIM.

I would be very cautious about “Jesus had visited him personally” due to the warning about this in Matthew.

Matthew 24:23-27 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Maybe I missed something...only have dial up so was not able to watch the video but did read the article that somebody posted about this...it does not appear that there is anything but a coded message that the rabbi left to be opened a year after his death that points possibly to Jesus.(based upon the code) If I understand the article correctly he was “visited” around two years before his death and kept the identity of the Messiah a secret until one year after his death...does this line up with Romans 10:9-13...was this man saved from his sins(Paul showed some signs that he was)...I do not now this man so I will leave that up to God, but it does not give me much of a desire to listen to anything he has written...just some thoughts.

God bless
