Messias: drei Dichtungen <German> (1920) is a poem by Meir Wiener.
Abstract
A collection of three poems, devoted to 16th-century Portuguese marrano Shlomo Molco, King Herod the Great, and 15th-century Kabbalist Joseph della Reina, respectively. The first and, more directly, the second poem deal with the Second Temple period. In a dream Shlomo Molco foresees the time in which Jesus, freed from burden of "Christian" interpretations, will regain his place among his people. The second poem elaborates on the Talmudic tale about Herod killing the sages of Israel out of fear that they would challenge the legitimacy of his power.
