"Mashiach" by Dr. T. Lewenstein - An article examining the return of the Jewish people to their land as part of the process of "Yemot HaMashiach." Published by Judischer Volksschriftenverlag, Zurich, 1953.

A rare publication released upon the passing of Dr. Lewenstein in Zurich, who agreed to have some of his articles published in the last year of his life. In his article on the belief in the coming of the Messiah, he attacks Reform Judaism, which dismissed this belief with ridicule, and demonstrates through countless sources from the Prophets, the Sages (Chazal), and the early Jewish scholars (Rishonim) how the belief in the coming of the Messiah is one of the fundamental principles of Judaism. He then addresses the question of whether the establishment of the State of Israel is a stage in the "Yemot HaMashiach" and whether the ingathering of exiles in these years is the fulfillment of the vision of the Prophets. He concludes that even if we see "signs" of what the Prophets intended for the Messianic era, "the final end" has not yet arrived, and it is this for which we still yearn.
