s respons by the Saka family and by for we are at the end of the of last night we spoke about B what does it mean our hope is that Hashem will bring the third bdash unlike the first two which were temporary and fleeting the third will be permanent and forever and B it takes the whole takes the whole everybody in the world needs to contribute their Brook everybody needs to contribute their Merit in order to bring it and then the BR concludes somewhat surprisingly establish the Throne of quickly in this which is going to be built and why is it surprising that we're invoking this theme or this request here it's surprising because what's the next the entire next is a to restore the Mal the kingship the monarchy of so if it gets its own BR has its own theme it's coming up then why do we have to include it here why does it get packed in at the end of why don't we say why are we mentioning and invoking so this is not my question it's not a new question this question was asked to none other than the BS in his commentary on the tour B wonders this question why are we invoking Mal if it gets its own the very next and the answers the following very powerful very important because even though Independence separately it deserves its own bra we're daving we're longing for mhia who descends from the lineage of D to restore the davidic dynasty we're longing for it and that deserves its own bra but what wanted us to understand is that AB the monarchy the kingship being returned is an incomplete and here's aav here's something to think about in this snippet our longing our is not a br for the Waldorf and the Inbal and the plaza it's not a br for the best restaurants all over it's not a for incredible it's not a br for summer trips to Israel Yim and we're living in miraculous times The Six Day War The Return of Y to be the undivided Eternal capital of our people forever is nothing short of a miracle for which we must be so grateful but you know as long as Yim still has elements and ideas and events and parades as long as Yim is not a place of pure Holiness and sanctity is not driven and governed by Torah ideals Yim is a place that still struggles that still has dark moments you without because what is d the longing for DAV is a longing for returning of malus bav from mashiah so is not just the skyscraper is the new buildings they're extraordinary they're beautiful they're wonderful and I the people who buy the apartments in it should be there more than a couple weeks a year we should all be there permanently but the growth of the ultimate dream and ambition for Yim is not about the real estate and it's not about the skyscrapers the ultimate dream of is is Mal is m is becoming that place from which all the light is spread out throughout the entire world we want is a request for because when will we earn when will we Merit when will DAV be back his descendants Theus be returned when we are worthy and when mhia comes when mhia comes when he ruled was unlike any other ruler for example the tells us other kings were sleeping in the morning was busy Z still remember BR was busy with answering Shas for cl was busy immersed in Torah other kings have palaces other kings have chests of gold and and jewels Jewish Kings have two Torah the one they go out with the one they stay back with but Jewish kings are not busy with conquering land conquering riches and fame and fortune Jewish kings are busy with Redeeming the world transforming the world was answering every has to have their Torah the T that's what we're longing for that's what we're waiting for we're seeing part of our of be fulfilled and be answered and for that we have to express incredible gratitude to the Reon so much so that there's a big discussion and Chas that are written that we just said this week on there was can we say the way we always have it's describing a city that's not actually reality Nim if you knew what you were saying Nim is saying it's a desolate destroyed empty Barren neglected City y's on fire you could not go to you could go every other month and you'll see new hilltops new communities new towers new buildings new attractions new Kum new yeshivas new markets new malls new that's not there's a whole discussion can you say something not true why do we still say and it's very much the same answer because even with all that that's not the only measure of and our only ambition for we want what's our hope and dream our hope and dream is for so yes it's the next says the and yes it's deserving of its own but even the would be incomplete if it didn't culminate and end with without it's not that we're longing for and so as much as we appreciate how far we've come we see how far we have to go until the day that will be returned
