Growth Speed

Growth speed in the time of the revelation of King Moshiach will be amazing. In the Gemara in Tractate Shabbat it says: "In the future, trees will produce fruits every day."

Similarly, there is a prophecy that states: "Behold, days are coming, says Hashem, when the plowman shall meet the reaper..." This means that the harvesting of the field (which comes immediately after the growth of the field) will occur immediately after plowing and sowing, so that the one plowing the field will already meet the one harvesting.

Everything will happen with amazing speed, just as the speed of pregnancy and birth will be only nine hours in total.

The Essence of the Promise

The Rebbe explains that the reason why in the future era there will be no interruption between growth and fruit development is because physical things will be united with their root and source - the word of Hashem - something that will be expressed in the fact that there will be no interruption between growth and development.

It Has Already Happened in History

• At the beginning of creation, the earth produced fruits in a single day.
• Near Miriam's well, trees grew with fruits.
• The growth of flowers, blossoms, and almonds on Aharon's staff.
• The growth of the carob tree by the cave of Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai.
• The miraculous growth of the kikayon plant for the prophet Jonah.

Our Deeds and Service

A Jew's service should be in such a way that already at the beginning of the work, one sees the fruits and the fruits of fruits as they are in actuality.

This happens when Torah study and fulfillment of mitzvos become engraved in the heart and entire being of the Jew. Like the superiority of engraved letters over written letters, meaning that the Jew's Torah study is not just in a way that the person and Torah are like two things connected together, but moreover, that the person has no separate existence, and his entire existence is the Torah he learns. And when his Torah study is in the manner of engraving, the mitzvos he fulfills are also in such a manner, penetrating his entire being.

And when Torah and mitzvos are engraved in the person from one side to the other, comprising his entire essence, it penetrates and affects from one side to the other, in all his powers and matters, even in all the things in the world. Therefore, it becomes visible and revealed even in the physical world that there is no interruption between a person's action and the fruits that grow, as Hashem's influence flows immediately without any interruption at all.

A Taste

We see in our time — a period with the signs of the end of days — unusual phenomena and developments in various fields and directions: on the positive side — unusual strength and speed, and also — in undesirable matters that still need to be clarified and refined to perfection (even absolute perfection), which also come and are coming in a manner of haste, suddenly and unexpectedly.
