Kol HaTor
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Kol HaTor - קוֹל הַתּוֹר or "The Voice of the Turtledove" (a reference to Song of Songs 2:12) was written by Rabbi Hillel Rivlin of Shaklov a disciple of the Vilna Gaon (during whose lifetime it was penned). The text deals with the Geulah (Era of Redemption) and describes its signs vis-a-vis an evaluation of a proposed 999 footsteps of the Moshiach’s arrival. It was first published [in Hebrew] by Rabbi Menachem Mendel Kasher in 1968 to whom the book was passed down over the generations. It has since then become more popular amongst adherents of Religious Zionism who see parallels between current and recent historical events matched up against those forecasted in the book.
