And more kids were born and those kids
grew up and they had kids. And the next
generation of kids also didn't know what
the sun looked like. And the stories had
a little bit less effect on them until
one day the people announced a big
announcement. Someone invented the
electric bulb and he brought this
electric bulb to all of the different
houses and everyone was so excited about
it. And they brought it to one house
where there was a really old man in
there. One of the few remaining people
that actually saw the sun. And they
wanted to see what the old man thinks of
this. Look at this. Look at this amazing
invention.
This must be what the sun looked like.
And the old man nodded his head and
started crying. I said, "Why are you
crying, Grandpa?" He says, "No,
it's not the sun." What do you mean? But
look how much light the candle was only
able to give us light just just for us
to see right in front of us, you know, a
couple of feet in front of us where the
light bulb lights up the whole room. Is
it not even as good as the sun? And the
old man says, "No, it's nothing in
comparison to the sun." The sun used to
bring light not just to the entire room,
not just to the entire street and not
even to the entire town, but the entire
world would have a light that's
unmatched. Even if you took all of the
light bulbs in the world and combined
them, it still would be unmatched to one
ray from the real sun.
And of course, this new generation
had no idea what this old man is talking
about. What do you mean? How can it have
so much? Says,
"This is where we are. This is where we
are."
In the beginning, the sages that saw the
destruction cried so much that Raan Gaml
cried so much that his eye his eyelashes
fell out. He cried so much that he know
he had no eyelashes anymore. The sages
literally would cry to the point where
people would pass out from how much
mourning. But as the generations
continued
only hearing stories of the beta mikdash
and becoming more and more removed from
the beta mikdash, people started
thinking why are we mourning? What's
what is it? Maybe we can have another
little building. Look at how big this
shul is and look how big this yeshiva is
and look how great this sadik is. And
the average person has no idea what the
beta mikdash
even looked like in real life because in
their imagination it's just a building.
