Beyond Hatred: Rebuilding After the Destruction
The Talmud Yerushalmi in Masechet Yoma says the reason the Bet HaMikdash was destroyed was because the people at the time were chasing money and had baseless hatred.
If someone doesn’t fix this inclination towards jealousy, he is only hurting himself. People spend painful hours thinking about what they could have had or what they should have had and ask why everyone else gets what they want. We have what’s meant for us and if it would be any other way, we’d be missing out on our opportunity to fulfill our purpose here.
Everyone is given the exact character traits and circumstances that they need to be in to be considered successful with their mission in this world. If we can accept the will of Hashem for ourselves and for others, we’ll reach great levels in emunah, we’ll release so much stress and tension and we’ll be able to have true Ahavat Chinam.
