Kuntres Mattan Torah, On the Completion of The Zohar

We reach the conclusion that our generation is the generation of the Messianic era; we have therefore merited the redemption of our holy land from foreigners. We have also merited the revelation of the book of the Zohar, which is the beginning of the fulfillment of the verses, “for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord” and “and they shall teach no more every man his neighbor… for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them.” Yet we have merited these two only with respect to giving by the Holy One, blessed be He; we have not received anything into our hands, we were merely given the opportunity to begin serving God, to engage in the Torah and the commandments for their own sake. Then shall we merit the great triumph promised to the Messiah’s generation, something that no generation before us has experienced. Then shall we merit the receiving phase of the two: complete understanding and complete redemption.
