And by the way, the numerical value of
nun 58 plus me 98 plus vav is 104 104
and 104 is 208. Gamatria
gamatriah four times. It's a reference
to the
medus tells us on this
that Hashem is going to give the Israel
double consolation.
What does that mean? Double consolation.
If somebody is in pain, then they need
consolation. Once you're fully consoled,
then you've maxed out on your
consolation. What can be added? Once
you're consoled of what value is double
consolation, imagine somebody is very
thirsty. So, he drank until his thirst
was quenched. He doesn't need to drink
more. That will not benefit him. So what
exactly is the double consolation that
is in store in the future? Once you've
received your requisite consolation, no
more is needed. Furthermore, the Pa
continues.
We were punished doubly.
What do you mean we were punished
doubly?
Why would we? What does that mean? We
were punished doubly. If we needed to be
punished, then we re should receive just
retribution. Once we receive that, what
exactly did we receive above and beyond
what was needed? Isn't that extra? So we
want to uncover.
I saw in
a dorra that I received from my friend
Ra Emanuel Bernstein. He quotes Rabl
Minsberg in the safer Ben Melik
who has an amazing insight and an
amazing einfal. If you want to
understand the double, where else in
Kazal do we find double?
We know that when when the Tanoim Ram
Gaml Rab Yeshua they went to the
Harabayas and they saw the foxes on the
Harabas, they began to cry and Rabika
laughed and Raba says why are you
crying? They said this is a holy spot on
earth and it's being defiled. Rabbi Aka
said that's why I'm laughing because if
this prophecy is being fulfilled then
certainly the prophecy of the redemption
will be fulfilled. What did they tell
Rabaka? Rebaka
nikamanu reba
tanu double consolation. So if we could
somehow understand the double
consolation that reba offered the tanim
maybe we could understand the double
consolation of
that to me is a great
let's understand the insight of rabaka
did rabaka
somehow what was he so happy about what
was he laughing about that now he
believed the gula what happened and if
he didn't see the foxes he wouldn't have
believed the gula happened why did he
need to see foxes. How did the foxes
strengthen his belief and his conviction
in the coming of the gula? Rabika said,
"Now that I saw the fruition of the
first nua, then I'm going to be za to
the second nua." What Rabika did not
believe in the coming of the gula until
he saw foxes.
The garra says this world for good news
we say
for bad news we says
will only say
amazingly says
I don't understand
in the future we're not going to we're
not going to make we'll only say In the
future, we're not going to say
we're only going to say why are we
focused on the just say nowadays bad
things happen and in the future bad
things won't happen. Why are we saying
nowadays we say
and then we're in the future we're only
going to say
why we focus on the say in the future
only good things will happen.
So says of course only good things will
happen. What that means is in the future
what we used to say about we're going to
make what does that mean? In the future
we're going to understand that all the
things in our life that we thought were
setbacks or difficulties we're going to
realize
they were not
we're going to recognize how they were
really good. In other words, the the
garra is not talking about how in the
future only good things are happen will
happen. Nowadays, there are two kinds of
things that happen to us. Things that we
see that are good and some things we
don't see that they're good. It seems to
us like they're bad and therefore we
have to make but in the future the
things we used to make about we're going
to make
we're going to see how these things
really brought great to us. So Cesar of
Lelay Minsburg this is what it means
that Hashem punished us doubly. Not only
did we have hardship not only did we
have tragedy but to add insult to injury
besides the hardship itself we never
understood we could never understand how
these hardships and these difficulties
were part of Hashem's plan. We can never
understand what this
we can never understand what the
goodness in this was. How how is this
helping us? It was only pain. It was
only suffering. So one level one
punishment was the punishment. But what
made the punishment more painful is we
could not understand what is Hashem's
plan over here. Why is this happening?
This is not bringing me any success or
happiness.
So what is the double comfort? It will
be double comfort. Number one, no bad
things will happen to us. All our
difficulty and suffering will be behind
us in the rear view mirror. But aside
from the fact that we'll have no
suffering ahead of us, we'll also
understand how all the suffering that
was behind us brought us to the blessing
and the success that we had. That's the
double. The double nama is all our
suffering will be behind us and we will
recognize how all the suffering in our
life brought us to all of our happiness
and success. That's the amii number one
no more difficulty. Number two we will
recognize how the difficulty we
encountered and suffered in life brought
us great braha coming to rebaka.
Rabbi Aaka did not have more faith in
the coming of the gula when he saw the f
the foxes. He's not saying that just
like I know A will happen, I know B will
happen. What Rabika is saying is not
only will B h B happen, but I now
recognize and have a deeper appreciation
that B will only happen through A.
Rabaka wasn't just saying just like the
tragedy of the foxes roaming on the
temple mount happen so too will the
rebuilding of the third temple happen.
Whatever is saying is he he came to the
recognition that through the desecration
and the tragedy of Jewish history that
will create the happiness and success of
the coming of mikdash. So the the Tan
told Rabbi, "Not
a tanuan,
not only did you console us that you
brought to light the the absolute
conviction of the coming of Msiah, but
you made us recognize and appreciate
that just like a seed
has to degenerate,
it has to excuse me, disintegrate before
it flourishes, So too the was the sa of
the gulah.
So this is the double consolation and
hashem we uh may hashem console all of
we have a very long period of
consolation even longer we only had we
had three weeks of we have seven weeks
of and we should be
have a good chabas everyone Recording
