How A Fake Mashiach Was Caught Sleeping Face Down.

So, says the author of uh uh the uh Bi'ur Halakha, he says that um at the time of Shabbatai Zvi uh uh uh Yimakh Shmo V'Zikhro, the fake Mashiach, Shabbatai Zvi was a uh convinced countless people that he is Mashiach. He was a rasha merusha, but he was a very smart person, unfortunately. And Rabbi Yehuda Fatiya, in his Ruach Chaim talks about how he uh uh in one of the dibbukim that he dealt with was the dibbuk of uh uh of Shabbatai Zvi, who was a uh uh filthy disgrace of a human being when he was in this world. And uh the uh the Taz, uh Rabbi David Halevi, uh heard about Shabbatai Zvi, and he didn't know if he's Mashiach or he's not. So, he sent his son-in-law, who was a very big talmid chakham, to go check him out. To go check out Shabbatai Zvi. And uh after he went made this journey, and he came back, the uh the Taz welcomed the son-in-law with a a lot of honor and kavod, and said, "Okay, nu, so, is he Mashiach or is he not?" And the Taz and the uh his son-in-law says, "He's not only not Mashiach, he's a fake Mashiach." He says, "How do you know it? How do you know for sure that he's a fake Mashiach?" "It's very simple. As soon as I walked in, I saw that he's sleeping on his uh on his uh stomach. So, certainly, the Mashiach does not sleep on his stomach. Now, your average person who does not know the issues of morality, the the significance of wasting seed, and how uh uh horrible this is, uh when the average person does not know what kedusha is, this story simply won't make any sense to them. What's the Why How can you determine that this person is not Mashiach because he's sleeping on his stomach? I mean, it's up to him, you know, that uh to do it uh to control himself when he's awake, but not when he's asleep. You lose control. No, habibi. If a person works on himself during the day, Hakadosh Baruch Hu protects him at night. And if a person does not protect himself during the day, certainly Hakadosh Baruch Hu is not going to help him at night. As the Gemara in Maseches Avodah Zarah says, protect your eyes during the day so evil does not come out at night. What's evil that comes out at night? Hachamim say, the seed that comes out of the man's body.
