What Jews beleive about the coming of the Anointed One?:
Question:
Do Orthadox Jews beleive the following actions preceding and results of the arrival of the Anointed One by the will of the L-D?
That not only the process of ingathering of Exhiles to Israel will be completed by the anoitned one but that the following will also happen?
1) The rise of the 3rd permenannt Temple on the Temple Mount and the reaappearence of the Ark of the Covenent? {To remove any doubts that this is the L-d handiwork)
2) that not only The Divisions and quarrels among the People of the Book will disappear but that the 12 Tribes and the Priesthood will be reestablished ?
3) That all non Jewish nations will acknowledge the L-D?
4) That all nations and persons who have followed the consul of Esau, Amalek , Hitler et al by being delibertly cruel wicked and tormenting to the Jewish Nation by all their words, deeds and thoughts...will receive their punishment from the L-D?
If their is anything I have left out or am mistaken in thinking...please correct me

Question:The L-d and the shedding of innocent blood. according to Wikipedia After the murder of Hur, Aaron was willing rather to take a sin upon himself to make an idol than to cast the burden of an evil deed upon the people if they commit so terrible sin of killing a priest and prophet among them; yet centuries later this act did happen the stoneing death of the prophet/priest Zechariah ben Jehoiada. Likewise is the murder of Naboth by ahab and Jezebel resulting not only in their deaths, but also of their son Jehoram of Israel. Now please correct me if Im mistaken but is the lesson to be learned is that the L-D punishes those who are not just guilty of literaly shedding innocent blood [Zechariah] but also punishes those persons who try to profit from hurting innocent blood [Persons[?] by keeping that which isn't theirs and refusing to restore that which was stolen?

Thank you for raising interesting issues. Anyone whom God punishesd must have deserved it on some level. Thus, when for example Jehoram was killed by Jehu, we cane be sure he deserved death for many other reasons {as the Torah attests he was wicked [II Kings 3:2].However, there were some symbolism to the fact that his body was then placed in Naboth's field.

Question
Query: Years ago in a non jewish children story book about the wisdom of King Solomon-the Queen of Sheba wished to test him-so she had an exact copy of a bundle of flowers made. Then she asked Solomon which was real? Solomon chose the real flowers because a bee flew to the real flowers. Is this confirmed in Talmud? Also the L-D gave Solomon the gift of a wise and understanding heart-yet he sinned greviously by having too much gold and silver, too many horses and too many wives. Did his heart fail him those three times?

Hey ,
This story is found in the compilation of stories from Chaim Nachman Bialik [Veyehi Hayom]. It is not found inthe Talmud or other Midrashim.
I am not sure where the story originated. While the Targum Sheni to Esther does list a bunch of riddles posed by the Queen of Sheba, this is not one of them.
Let me know if you need any more information.
Have a great day!

And yes, his heart was led astry by those things. He assumed that he would be impervious to their guiles and charms, but he was mistaken. G-d was showing him that a person should never assume themselves to be above sinning or getting corrupted.
