Yerushalmi in exile-
perhaps they are afraid where they will find him?
Actually, based on answers given above, (the logic is somewhat circuitous, but I think this summarizes what was presented above.) the 7th dor is not over since the mission was not yet accomplished (source: CS’s HS teacher). So the last Rebbe still holds the title of the Moshe of the Dor. The Dor is established by the Rebbe- as long as there is no new Rebbe, there is no new Dor. And as long as there is no new Dor, the last Rebbe remains the Rebbe. Besides since no one replaced him, the bit of Moshe Rabbeinu’s neshama in him was not passed on, so it remains with him. No chance for a new tzaddik, for a new Moshe/Nasi B’doro or Moshiach B’doro. wait- how can that be? No possibility of a Moshiach?
I can finally understand why Mesichists believe the way they do, it is the natural progression of the basic concepts as presented here.
