The Zohar famously predicted that the year 5408 (or 1648) would be an auspicious time to usher in the Messianic Age. Together with the end of the Thirty Years' War and the tragic Chmelnitsky Massacres, the events of the day inspired the false messiah Shabbatai Tzvi to launch a heretical movement. This short video explores the birth of the Shabbatean heresy and how it was ultimately stamped out by the rabbis and by the Baal Shem Tov, founder of Hasidism.
