Trying to Feel a Connection to the Mourning - Rabbi Jesse Horn

the sukkam and say for ezra parrot kim will talk about how when claudius srell started building the second base at magdash the younger jews were were celebrating and happy and excited whereas the older jews were crying mourning because they realized the second base immediately didn't have the same splendor the grandeur didn't have the same regold it just wasn't the same as the first base at mcdosh and there's a lot to be learned from this circuit but one thing is the innocence of the younger generation they just never saw the basic media they didn't know what it really was all about and therefore it makes sense that the elderly were mourning it because they had seen the first where the younger people did not one of the important powerful questions one can ask is how we supposed to mourn now during this three-week barrier building up to tisha buff how are we supposed to mourn that we're not even the younger people certainly not the older people we didn't see the first base in english we didn't see the segment you see the way to appreciate the next one is to is to mourn for this and therefore how does how does this all come together what are we supposed to be doing it's difficult to miss and mourn for something that we've never experienced as the younger people in xavier ezra just like them and perhaps the answer is actually from the younger people you can learn a lot you might not know exactly what it is but the younger people were happy for something they were happy that they got a lot they may have not gotten what the older elderly people had where does that come from they were celebrating they must have had some emotional connection and perhaps the message is as much as we can emotionally connect to something that we'd have never seen we should try to do but still how does one do that so hazal teach us and we've shown him to teach us teach us that the basic is a malcolm not just of kadusa obviously the ramban writes that the mishkan and therefore the same ramban and seymour writes this is the place to feel the most profound connection to akarij's particle it's the continuation of her sinai matter of fact i've seen i may have been built so we can have hakaras in our lives daily safer vayikra might not be the center that might not just be the middle of say but the center of how do we live if safe most is god giving us building towards the mishkan starting from a book of gulas and concluding to goulas the ramban rights in the introduction maybe save for vapors how does one live how does one exist when the college park dwelling amongst us and although we can't experience it like a blind man can't see color in a deaf man can't see it hear a sound or you can't explain to them what those things are nonetheless the more we can appreciate what we're supposed to appreciate even if it's not really wanting the basement just knowing we're supposed to want it knowing something's missing emotionally you can't feel that attached but you should know the relationship with the kurdish people is not the way it could be the interaction with him is not the way it should be the religious experience is not what we wish and ideally know it should be and therefore our mourning may just be i think i went to blackmon say to wish to want to wish to want we don't know what it is but at least we know we're missing something there's a sense of integrity and understanding that we know that we should want something more in the mirror to hashem these three weeks we should as much as we possibly can cultivate the sense of i know something's missing i know there's something lacking and hopefully as the younger people did maybe they didn't see the large one should be the the greatest of all will have the bigger but to appreciate that we're missing something and then when it comes together comes back and returns to know what at least that it will be better that is what we're looking for
