Tisha B'Av : The Greatest Tragedy - Turnus Rufus Plowing the Beis Hamikdash

this torah class is brought to you by torahanytime.com good morning sai brooklyn bomb to the coil agar de pirka we have a very interesting subject this morning of course we're now holding in i believe tonight already is zion so tonight already begins the more intense period of avelus according to the uh mishna brewer excuse me according to ramosha one should avoid even uh sumim starting from zion and on because this is according to the government tightness is when the the entered the heihal now tells us that uh many tragedies happened on uh on tish above not only the destruction of islamic dash in fact there's a very interesting pop pasuk that says uh we let we landed in the after i believe of the first of the three weeks how you doing robeshi welcome the um the pasik says in the month they will be found which implies that almost as ababranel explains tragedy has its way of finding itself during this time of the year meaning this time of year is sort of like a lightning rod for jewish tragedy and the gemara untightness even says that we only have evidence that the base amigdas was destroyed the first time around on tish above the second time around we have no evidence it's not recorded anywhere we just apply the following principle magalin in other words we know the first place something this was destroyed on that day so for in all likelihood if we don't know when the second makes something this was destroyed it probably happened on that day that's just the way uh the ibanezham runs things but the bishop says in time is batishaba of nixar al-baiseno on tishbov it was decreed on our forefathers that they cannot enter arts israel in the times of the maraglim bahara of habbaswari china was destroyed the first time around uh and the second time around the nilkada beta and betar was conquered the necro shahir and the city was plowed so that is an interesting tragedy and what i say interesting is in the scheme of things once the temple was destroyed and once the guyan perpetrated what they did of what added significance is it that the city was plowed i mean who cares that the city was plowed what does it do for us to have topsoil oh the topsoil was plowed you know who cares why is that up there on the list of tragedies of tish above in fact the gemara says in tightness when tornas rufus destroyed the hecal what he didn't destroy the hecal so the masara sasha says kesha harash when he plowed the so it's not only the ear that was plowed but it's the hecal as well we say in para kuflama zain of the hillem al-narrows you know that song just checking okay um it's a good song but i'm not going to sing the whole thing for you right now but at the end of the paroch it says remember hashem for the children of adam the day of you shalom what did the bane adam say the way the song goes is aru aru but it's really the word is anyway it's hard to make it a mellow when you sing the song but those are problems you have to deal with that they would say aru aru means destroy destroy until the very foundation so apparently it was an ambition and a goal of the binay edom not only to destroy the temple but to dig deep down and uproot and destroy until the foundation and the question is why in the safer ibane hamikdash of um he quotes the question of the griz the british tournament why did he plow the for what purpose what was his goal what was he trying to accomplish there's an interesting rama there are those some people they like pillows they like fluffy pillows some people before they go to sleep they fluff their pillows okay don't i'm not going to ask i'm not going to put anyone on the spot what their personal practice is with their pillows but the rama does say that on tish above yesh binay adam evan there are people who put stones under their head as a remembrance to that which it says and he took from the stones of the place there's a concept that the ubanisham showed yaakov the corbin in his vision of the base hamikdash in fact um there is an interesting sam soy from pase where the mata it is impossible to destroy the base of mikdash as long as they are perfectly aligned you cannot destroy the base of mikhnash but what the ubanisham had to do in order to allow the gum to destroy the base of magnesium is he had to reposition the base hamikdash shall mala that's the meaning of the passage he shook his mikdash he put his mikdash to the side now the two bhatte makdashim are not perfectly aligned and mamela they were able to destroy it so the cypher says when yaakov says enza kim base aloy kim all this is is the miktash one of the mikdashian but the other mikta shamala has been realigned so now in seeing that yaakov saw the corbin okay so this is also very interesting idea oh we're going to come to it i actually did put it on the sheet so we'll come to it very soon um there's a madrish and this is a subject we spoke about when we got to parishes mahalo that when avraham avinu came to the harabayas to for the akedah the passage says he saw the place from far so the ankle chamois says at first the place was deep in boeing it is not the daracha the king to dwell in a valley allah be ula only in a premier place in other words when yaakov when abramovina came to the akedah he was sort of bewildered this is where god hangs out this is where the brahmasham resides it's not the dark of the king to reside in a valley but rather in a premier spot why is the rebellion dwelling in a valley he should develo dwell in gawaya god raised it up that's what it's called from the fear of god the the it's sort of the surrounding area galvanized and came together and became a mountain this is also brought in the madistan it says this teaches at the beginning it was a deep place when god said to dwell in their velazquez to the surrounding area that it should gather and become a malcolm shriner that's why at first it was a makoi and then it became har in fact the toyseptin brachy says similarly she in shrina sachita saharan we find that when it's wholesome hashem remember god the children of adam when should you remember it yesterday when its foundations have been uprooted so we see that there is some kind of connection between the fact that originally haramaria was deep it then became a har and somehow the ambition of the was to bring it back to the state of harahamoria before avraham avinu got there now one of the zamiros that we sing on chavez which was composed by one of the great sardic masters dunash ibn labrad who's actually cited by rashi we say aloi kim you know that song that one you know all right one for two not bad but so we say like this away kim tane by midbar heart god make the desert a mountain hadas the myrtle shita acacia biroish cyprus turtar fur meaning make the desert flourish and be and grow and this is based on the passage in ushaya attained by midbar areth shitai will place in the midbar cedar acacia bahadas myrtle valley simba arava i will make in the wilderness bharash cyprus tidhar fur these all these trees will grow together so comes the brisker of and the brisker of says an astounding concept and a very interesting idea he quotes the alka that we just read that originally hara maria was a makoim it was an amec um that's the maguinavram wrote a payrosh on the alcott you know that the mughin of ram wrote a comment on the outgod it's called zayas ranan and he says this is medujak go to the land of marie what do you mean the land why not har that's because originally it was an era so it was not a her america india does not revert back into it until it becomes a mountain for shame hagris mibrisk i heard from the brisker of shahiksha lashin taishafta that he asks on the language of the toysefta sahar until it becomes a mountain he says return until it becomes a mountain right it says won't return until returns into a mountain it is a mountain what do we call we call it what else do you call it so um very interesting that is saying god will not return until it goes back into to being a mountain the shamatis that we don't enter into israel in the first and second victims and the gemara teaches us that turner's rufus plowed the hecal and the rambam likewise says this day is designated for piranhas kharash tournament we know many tragedies happened on tish above the spanish inquisition and i remember when i was a kid the shabbos before my bar mitzvah our shul burnt down on tish above so a lot of bad things happened on tish above but one of them is the necro the umru and the gemara that turned the surface also plowed the hekal and the rambam also says so in other words not only why did taurus rufus plow the ear he also ploughed will be a plowed field and the griz says once the romans destroyed the temple of the surface why in the world would he do that what did it do for him they destroyed the temple they burnt down the city right that even though the basements may be destroyed but it's still a malcolm of so torn this rufus plowed it because the toyseptic said that god will not return until it becomes a mountain again allah he destroyed the actual mountain at until it became a flattened place and about this matsav the toy safta states baruch yakuza viagra that hashem will ultimately return and remake the mountain it's very interesting that god will not return until he makes it a mountain again presumably it's almost like the ibanezham wants it to revert back to the way it was when avraham avinu was misfollowed that it should be a mountain to dwell in a valley only in a high place parachute but it needs to be a mountain and god raised it and so he will do in the future after tennessee has plowed the spot hashem will raise it up says the grizz that the passage says the eighth shaman this pasuk is the basis for what dunash ibn labrad writes in dharariyakra alaikum god make a mountain in the desert so next shabbos when you sing the zemer you could remember the whole sheer you take out the sheet you could you could review the whole sheer you can even take a picture of all the people on you could take a picture you know everybody smile you know some people might want to you know remind themselves of the share at the shabbos table give a big smile with white teeth you know make yeah i could tell even the people who are hiding behind their names they're they're smiling i could tell anyway um the posix says that away kim tainba mit barhar maharaj this is uh curious that which it says god will allow in other words hadas tithar is mentioned here look i'm going to make it easy for you in the past it says god will make in the midbar eretz so we have the hadas and we have the shita and we have the barosh and we have the titar if i was an ashra um [Music] or a h shaman tree i would definitely make a movement called eight shaman matters you know what happened to me in the zimmer they didn't make it in i wonder why but anyway what the brisker up says is that it is it is proven we have uh substantiation that these trees will flourish in the midbar however um but they see that midbar excuse me where is there any basis that god will make a mountain in the midwest it doesn't say that in the past you see in this passing anything about mountains it doesn't say aha so why is dunash saying i like kim tambam where he got a mountain from who says god is making mountains in the mid bar that's the cash of the brisker of omar right where's the makura of such a request says briskarov it's possible that the baal has zimra is makhab into what we're learning is god is destined to raise up the place of the mikda shaharsha the yasa de la hashkin so now we understand tornas rufus plowed the spot because he never wanted the shrine to return says the risk robbed indians and nirma's because this week's haftarah console console my people leave you shall i am speak to the heart of jerusalem call that the place of the temple that was lowered through tornas rufus you not say will be raised up and will become a mountain now back to the um back to the ranch back to this indian that originally the makama mikdos was a makoim or an heiress and then it became a har so this is something we've learned before ravnos and adler and the taurus ms right when ya even when yaakov avinu came there by him this is namashi oyoyo venoira as from nelson adler where do hazal derive the yaakov saw the corbin it says of nasa antler because it says why is he seeing a mockum why is he singing america amravin already trans tr uh transformed it into ahar um the darshan al-makkum because the malcolm in the base of mikdash was at first rak eretz mishar the nikra makko and kamashinemar the avraham of eno allah avraham avinu that the romans destroyed it until the foundation and they made it a mock amazing that's how we know that he saw the corbin because he didn't say vayifka bahar ba yufka bamakoyam that the sun set some brought the corbin two years prematurely because hashem did not want us to be in arts israel how many years seven eight hundred and fifty two years because if we would be in arizona communion venus anthem then we would have to be fulfilled in us um what does that say what i am thank you so it should not be fulfilled it's really it's uh i think it's calling the wrong pasta it's a typo oh no no so that the ibadatem will not be fulfilled so let's think about that for a moment by the way there's a famous rashi arashi the the pasik says vanaishantem that hashem re uh exiled us two years early because if we would have been narcissist 852 he we would have had to be destroyed so the famous question is we were egypt out of a year if we were allowed to be in our if we couldn't be an artist so 852 we should have stayed there 851 years and then left before 852. so the chuma-sadeshin says from here we learned that but when it comes to gematria you could be one-off and if we would have been there 851 then it would have had to be in the sky aim the redemption is called and is symbolized by the sun so the premature setting of the sun symbolize the premature galas and this is what it means two years early now i want to share with you the surfer that we referenced before and that is that that say that we are in this pasuk we are in uh these sukhim is there any reference that yaakov sola korbin so ramnasan adler says it's alluded to in valif the cypher says it's alluded to elsewhere in kindest fortish above and whoever finds this for me will get a prize okay blinder you're gonna get something i don't know what a jelly bean something really good okay who could find um the officer he desolated and he lamented ein zeb the tag beer is that kinah what's the kino here venera god shook his victory mikdos that it should not be aligned us then it was possible for them to have dominion they can't appear so this is very interesting some surfer is teaching us that for the to be able to destroy the temple the two temples shall mala had to be disaligned here rashi says that maria jumped toward vavinu that means only to make the shalmato jump to him they make the shamala remain in its place that's how yaakov saw did not say is in fact the very awe of god that hashem is able to withdraw his anger at a moment like this you could say this this is what meaning the same way daniel asked where is god's fear so yaakov said where's the naira why what happened to the nora because anzac he and basil like him because this is only the might of shamala but the major shaman is out of place he said a double negative this is not but this is the shara shamayim and therefore it's akina this is what the kingdom means this is one of my favorites so that means yaakov saw the khurban because as a as nasa adler says he saw it as a makoi and he says what's the so there's no more noira and that's how i was able to be destroyed everybody know yaakov avina was the big masmid did yaakova of vino ever go to sleep at night many times 14 years he didn't sleep at night when was the first time yaakov avinu slept that night the fourteen years he was in base either he did not sleep at night so why wasn't yaakov learning that night i don't understand he was such a big mosque but he spent 14 years without going to sleep at night so why did he have to sleep that night if he was able to learn 14 consecutive years why do they have to learn that you know why because what was that night it was tish above and you're not gonna learn on tisha b'av that's why yaakov avinu wasn't learning that night the f share sharamasgaam but the fourteen years that he was in the vasava he was osaka torah why didn't he learn torah tonight it's because it was tish above and now we have a deeper understanding of why we put the stone under our pillow if anybody needs rocks for tisha of night please call me after the sheer and i'll be happy to supply stones rocks of whatever size you happen to want and just uh as a good business advice if anybody wants uh a side gig selling stones for tisha b'av you know as far as i know in most judaica stores they've managed to market almost everything you could even buy a box to put your yamaka in okay i'm sure you don't have that yet you have a talisbaito and you have two inboxes but you don't have a yamaka box but this is a unchartered territory rocks for lel tishabhav why because yaakov avinu saw the corbin but he didn't just see the corbin he actually according to it it's possible to suggest it was tish above and that's why he wasn't learning okay um but let's just take it a little bit further here and let's point out one more item there's a mission of zara arabica anytime you see a tall mountain and a lofty hill there it's random and a leafy tree you should know there is available there rabbi kiva is revealing that every single spot in israel every mountain in israel was a makhama by the zara so toys just quotes twice this nobody desire quotes the question of you xiaomi fractions b xiaomi para mi bay sabahira the ushami asks what about the base hamikdash and you know what do you xiaomi answers in other words the question is how could they build the base hamikdash but ruby was saying every single mountain is a mahakam available so how could they build a basement on a mountain and haramaria and the answer is it was built based on the prophet comes with nelson adler brzak to be at his cover in frankfurt exactly a year ago right after tish above i in madras that he saw originally it was only a makoim a mike and aha that it's not covered for hashem to dwell on the amec and it became aha and this is what it means today bahara could someone please tell me why didn't god just make kara maria when he made the canadian rockies and the you know mount everest and the catskills all the big mountains in the world why didn't god make hara maria why do you have to make it late later the answer is because in avoiding zara it says any mountain in arizona they served up with azara and we know that even though if you worship karaka it does not become us sir but it becomes us so the by serving the mountain would have rendered that there is considered in israel nevada if something is attached to the ground to hakadosh then they would not be able to build the vasa mikdash but look in taisus who quotes this question from the ushami and the ushami answers it was built based on the navi what that means is like this the hashtag all the mountains that they built that way the zara and they worshipped before abrahavinu was maksik and arts israel their taka also to build the base of mekdoshan meaning all the the the idea of god they hit every mountain before inaudible was not separate but haramaria was not a mountain it was deep it was an imac and they didn't put away the zoro there because it's not a har and then so you'll say fine but once it became ahar and then it was given though the land was given to him and it was niska despite the that's a good one that's a good trivia what does dalat shin stand for now we know that that there's a principle that there's no mountain and you can build the basamiktas on on amma it's not the cupboard for the king to be shaykh and therefore davaramal says in tehran as follows i don't know where to build the house for you to build it on a mountain i can't because it was worshipped up with the zara to build it it's not covered so we have this catch-22 american is not covered a that for this you need a hare and adam akam so therefore we need to find a navi could could some navi tell me please tell me about a mountain that you that was originally amalgam and he quotes by the way who else says this reviews we were based on the mandarin originally it was the bitcoin then when abram vino came he made it into a mountain by the way it just got me thinking you know this is what it means to be honest hashem will show the good work has itself is bothered by the question hashem ye rao will hashem will show the will that the base of mikdash will be in this spot by the way the rebber of hessel of krakow he also says the same idea based on the gemara navajara and the taisus over there you know it got me thinking that when it comes to the harabayas not only think how absurd it is for our cousins to claim the harabayas for themselves because not only was it a mountain promised to abram it didn't even exist before avraham aveeno was mespala that it should be the makkaim for the shrine it was created through the very filos of abraham avinu and now we understand why the worst tragedy of all was tornus rufus plowing the mukhamiktash because it sounds like so long as it was a mountain even though the temple was destroyed at least the shrine could reside there but the toys after says won't return to becomes a mountain so thomas rufus who wants to prevent the shrine from ever returning uprooted it to its very core to make sure that hashem would never return and in a way this is the greatest tragedy of all because not to have a basa mikdash at the end of the day it's a bias but not to have the shrina that is the most painful ramification of the khurban and therefore every shabbos we are misbala not only aloi kim tane hadas shita baroish tida not only make them the deserts of yushalayim flourish but most importantly allah kim tain barhar god rebuild the mountain on the harhabayas on the makkom so it started off as a mokoim and amma vinozmospal became mahara yaakov avinu saw the corbin and when he said and it was ultimately destroyed by tornas rufus and we are miss pale allah kim tainba mit barhar we should be to see the makkoi be a suitable wrestling's place for the shrina so this is our last year before tish above of course everyone's welcome to join us every day at five o'clock it's very uh geshmaka limoud um you could also join us wednesday morning there will be a sheer or any monday and tuesday night is the daffodil at 9 15 or 9 25 depending on the night okay thank you for coming and
