== Even To Ask Is Not Relevant For Everyone == At the opening of the Ark on the three festivals, we ask, "And may be fulfilled in us the verse that is written: 'And the spirit of Hashem shall rest upon him...'" which speaks about the King Moshiach. But every person, even the simplest Jew, asks for this because every Jew has a spark of Moshiach, and he needs to reveal it in actuality, and therefore we ask that what is said about the attributes of Moshiach be fulfilled in us. But the verse about Moshiach that speaks about Moshiach's judgment in the manner of Morach V'da'in - "And he shall be animated by the spirit of the fear of the Lord" - we do not ask for, because it is not relevant for everyone, because to be a judge one must study the laws, so it cannot be included in the prayer text that is equal for all souls.
