== Children of Israel and Moshiach == Chazal call the Children of Israel "My anointed ones (meshichai)", as it states: "Touch not My anointed ones - these are the children of their teacher's house<ref>Shabbat 119b.</ref>". The Rebbe explains that this is because in children, the other powers of the soul are not developed, and therefore do not conceal the inner point of the essence of the soul - and therefore the spark of Moshiach is more revealed in them<ref>Talk of Shabbat Parshat Re'eh, Blessing of the Month of Elul 5741 (1981), (Sichot Kodesh Volume 4, page 532). Torat Menachem Hitva'aduyot - 5752 (1992) Volume 1, page 273 and onwards - Dvar Malchut Simchat Torah.</ref>. The Rebbe also spoke several times about the special chayus (vitality) that specifically children have in demanding the Geulah and crying out "We Want Moshiach Now"<ref>See for example the talk of Shabbat Parshat Mishpatim 5744 (1984) (Hitva'aduyot Vol. 2 pp. 987-8). And more.</ref>.
