Feeling the Exile: Mourning for the Shechina
We are now in the shavuah shechal bo Tisha B’Av and it is incumbent upon us to try to feel some of the pain of the Shechina that is still in exile after so many years. Chazal tell us Hashem was forced, kavayachol, to destroy His own home because of our sins, primarily sinat chinam. And we are still preventing Him from building it.
The Peleh Yoetz writes, whatever the reason for the hatred, it is still called baseless because Hashem is really the one who brings about everything. If we got insulted or lost money, it’s because it was the will of Hashem for us. And it is Hashem’s will that we don’t hate anyone, even in our hearts.
Let us end the fighting. Do it because it is the will of Hashem and then, b’ezrat Hashem we’ll be able to enjoy the rebuilding of the Beit HaMikdash. Amen.
