== History and Publication == The magazine began publication in Menachem Av 5754 (1994), founded by Rabbi Zalman Hertzel, Rabbi Menachem Mendel Hendel, and Rabbi Shlomo Halperin, with encouragement from Chabad rabbonim and askanim in Eretz Hakodesh, United States, and elsewhere. Its purpose was defined in its subtitle: "Beis Moshiach Weekly - World Weekly for Spreading the Message of Geulah." In the early period of publication, Rabbi Amos Cohen, Rabbi Shalom Pelman, Rabbi Aryeh Baruch Bloch, and Rabbi Shimshon Goldstein were involved in editing and printing. Later and until today: Rabbi Menachem Mendel Hendel, Rabbi Yaakov Chazan, Rabbi Menachem Ziegelboim, and Rabbi Avraham Rainitz. The magazine was established in response to changes in the veteran Kfar Chabad weekly: the removal of "Yechi" from the cover page (contrary to the original psak din of the Vaad Rabbanei Chabad). The first issues were similar in format to Beis Chayeinu issues published between 5749-5752, containing reports about happenings in 770. Gradually, Beis Moshiach developed into a publication filled with articles, interviews, and first-class exclusive content with popular supplements. In 5756 (1996), following the generous donation of Chassidic philanthropist Rabbi Rachamim Antian, the magazine became financially established. During this time, the editorial staff also changed. In subsequent years, the magazine developed and established itself both in content and with an editorial staff led by the finest Chabad writers, editors, and researchers.
