Hora’ah – הוראה – Teaching
The concept of Mashiach ben Yoseph functions on three levels: meta-historical, the actual personality of Mashiach ben Yoseph, and any individual who contributes to the messianic process.
Rabbi Joel David Bakst
Both the Temple and Mashiach connect from Malchut to Keter: “The soul of Mashiach comprises the souls of the entire Jewish people. This is what enables him to redeem all of Israel from exile … Mashiach, as is known, is the all-embracing yechidah of the Jewish people. For, unique among the five levels of every soul, the yechidah within a soul is its sublime and innermost essence … At the same time, within every Jew there is a spark of the soul of Mashiach. This spark is the yechidah within him, which is a spark of the comprehensive yechidah.
“The King Mashiach” (Sichos in English)
NEW TESTAMENT
For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of the body, being many, are one body; so also is Messiah … Now you are the body of Messiah, and individually members thereof.

You also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house.
