There are other explicit statements about the eternal holiness of this place: "the permanent place of 'beis rabbeinu,' his synagogue and study hall, the center of lubavitch during the last ten years (a complete period) ('everything follows the conclusion') of the previous rebbe, the nasi of our generation, during his lifetime in this world, and even after his passing the holiness has not moved from its place, and on the contrary, in a manner of 'ascending in holiness,' 'continuously increasing,' until the coming of the righteous redeemer." And further: "the work of spreading torah, judaism, and chassidus outward from 'beis rabbeinu' ('770') continues and with greater vigor and strength... and thus 'beis rabbeinu' ('770') is in the category of 'talpiyos,' 'a hill to which all mouths turn,' for more than fifty years (5700-5750/1940-1990), 'forever.'" | There are other explicit statements about the eternal holiness of this place: "the permanent place of 'beis rabbeinu,' his synagogue and study hall, the center of lubavitch during the last ten years (a complete period) ('everything follows the conclusion') of the previous rebbe, the nasi of our generation, during his lifetime in this world, and even after his passing the holiness has not moved from its place, and on the contrary, in a manner of 'ascending in holiness,' 'continuously increasing,' until the coming of the righteous redeemer."

A central part of the explanation in the kuntres is devoted to the fact that the nasi hador who is the head of chassidic teachings is the moshiach and redeemer of the jewish people in the generation, which the rebbe explains according to chassidus and according to the revealed aspects of torah, including citing the sdei chemed regarding the speculation in each generation about who is worthy to be moshiach. | A central part of the explanation in the kuntres is devoted to the fact that the nasi hador who is the head of chassidic teachings is the moshiach and redeemer of the jewish people in the generation, which the rebbe explains according to [[Toras HaChassidus|chassidus]] and according to the revealed aspects of torah, including citing the sdei chemed regarding the speculation in each generation about who is worthy to be moshiach. | ||
On this matter, the rebbe innovates that as preparation for building the third beis hamikdash, moshiach builds a mini-sanctuary in his place during the time of exile, as alluded to in the rambam's words. From there, light goes out to the entire world through spreading the wellsprings of chassidus and making the entire world like eretz yisrael. From there, he announces the news of redemption at "the hour when the king moshiach comes" as stated in the midrash that moshiach announces the news of redemption from the "roof of the beis hamikdash" - the beis hamikdash that is in the category of "roof" is the beis hamikdash outside of eretz yisrael, which does not have the same sanctity as eretz yisrael, similar to the difference between the roof of the temple and the temple itself, as "roofs were not sanctified." In footnote 92, the rebbe writes: "Note that 'beis moshiach' has the same gematria as 'paratzta' (770). And this requires careful consideration." | On this matter, the rebbe innovates that as preparation for building the third beis hamikdash, moshiach builds a mini-sanctuary in his place during the time of exile, as alluded to in the rambam's words.
