The tribe of Judah will not depart, nor a lawgiver from between his feet, until Shiloh comes.
Peace to the esteemed Rabbi and much respect.
Not that I used this verse to prove to you the correctness of the Torah's statement about the Messiah, since there are various interpretations of each verse, as we know, but I would still like to ask you: Do you not believe in the coming of the Messiah? After all, even in the words of the prophets, various scenarios appear that hint at this, such as a man sitting under his own vine and fig tree, and no nation will lift up a sword against another nation, and as you know, there are other prophecies that speak of this. Even when God says that I have commanded them to give this land, and the Sages demanded that it was said to them, not to you, and based on this, that "they" are all already buried, they concluded that the resurrection of the dead is from the Torah.
I'm not asking the Honorable Rabbi what he thinks, I'm simply interested in why you don't believe in the next world and its consequences, because if you doubt the next world, why even keep the commandments? And more ironically, if God created the world, why did He even give Torah? So that we would surrender to it in this world and that's enough? Didn't He breathe soul into us? Won't it return to the stone from which it was quarried?

Let no one say, "I am doing the commandments of the Torah and engaging in its wisdom so that I may receive all the blessings written in it or so that I may merit life in the world to come, and I will abstain from the transgressions that the Torah warns against so that I may be saved from the curses written in the Torah or so that I may not be cut off from life in the world to come." It is not appropriate to worship God in this way, for one who worships in this way worships out of fear and not the virtue of the prophets or the virtue of the sages. And none worship God in this way except the people of the land and the women and the little ones who are educated to worship out of fear until their understanding increases and they worship out of love.
Halacha in
The one who works out of love engages in the Torah and the mitzvot and walks in the paths of wisdom not because of anything in the world, nor because of the fear of evil, nor in order to inherit goodness, but rather does the truth because it is truth and the end of goodness will come because of it. This virtue is a very great virtue and not every wise man is worthy of it. It is the virtue of our forefather Abraham, whom the Holy One, blessed be He, called "loved" because he did not work except out of love. It is the virtue that the Holy One, blessed be He, commanded through Moses, as it is said, "You shall love the Lord your God." And when a person loves the Lord with the love that is due, he will immediately do all the mitzvot out of love. I don't know why God gave us the Torah. But apparently not for the sake of the world. Apparently this is the correct correction of the world. As for the soul, it is certainly possible (and even probable in my opinion) that it will return to some kind of reactor, but I do not know what it is or what its nature is.
