| |
“And My servant Dovid shall be king over them, etc., and
My servant Dovid shall be a prince to them forever.”
(Yechezkel 37: 24-25)
The verse speaks about the two duties of Melech HaMoshiach: Moshiach will be a king fighting the wars of G-d (Rambam, Hilchos Melachim, Chapter 11), and a nasi teaching the people the way of G-d (Rambam, Hilchos T’shuva, Chapter 9).
It is thus understood that regarding a king, it says “over them,” while regarding a nasi, it says “to them.” The conduct of kingship is by rising above the people – “over them,” whereas the influence of the nasi comes by drawing them close, as he tries to get the people to grasp and understand his words – “to them.”
(Likkutei Sichos, Parshas VaYigash 5751)
