צילה כל אבירי, אדוני בקרבי, קראו לי. מועי לשבור בחורי. גס דרך אדוני, לפסול פס ירודה. על אלה אני בוכיה, עיני עיני יורדה מים, כי רחק ממני מנחם משיב נפשי. היו בני שוממים, כי גבר אויב. פרש ציון ידיה, אין מנחם לה; צוה אדוני ליעקב סביביו צריו, היתה ירושלים לנידה ביניהם. צדיק הוא אדוני, כי פיהו מריתי. שמעו נא כל העמים, וראו מכאובי; ... אל חוב השבי. ... המוני, ... זקניי, ... כי בקשו אוכל למו. רְאֵה, אדוני, כי צר לי, מֵעַי חמרמרו, נֶהְפַּךְ לִבִּי בְקִרְבִּי, כי מרו מריתי; מחוץ שכלה חרב, בבית כמות. שמעו כי נאנחה אני, אין מנחם לי; כל רעי בגדו בי, היו לי לאויבים. קראו להם, נא, חונן; כי ה' עוני. על כן נעשו. סיוני פרשה, אדוני; ויחמרו, כל רודפיה השיגוה בין המצרים. דרכי ציון אבלות, מבלי באי מועד; כל שעריה שוממים, כהניה נאנחים, בתולותיה נוגות, והיא מר לה. היו צריה לראש, אויביה שלו; כי ה' הוגה על רוב פשעיה, עולליה הלכו שבי לפני צר. ויצא מן בת ציון כל הדרה; היו שריה כאילים לא מצאו מרעה, וילכו בלא כח לפני רודף. זכור עניי ונדודי, הלענה והראש. זכור תזכור, ותשוח עלי נפשי. Shabbos.

זָנַח אֲדֹנָי מִזְבְּחוֹ, נִאֵר מִקְדָּשׁוֹ. הִסְגִּיר בְּיַד אוֹיֵב חוֹמוֹת אַרְמְנוֹתֶיהָ; קוֹל נָתְנוּ בְּבֵית אֲדֹנָי, כְּיוֹם מוֹעֵד. חֹשַׁב אֲדֹנָי לְהַשְׁחִית חוֹמַת בַּת צִיּוֹן; נָטָה קָו, לֹא הֵשִׁיב יָדוֹ מִבַּלֵּעַ; וַיַּאֲבֶל חֵל וְחוֹמָה, יַחְדָּו אֻמְלָלוּ. טָבְעוּ בָאָרֶץ שְׁעָרֶיהָ, אִבַּד וְשִׁבַּר בְּרִיחֶיהָ; מַלְכָּהּ וְשָׂרֶיהָ בַגּוֹיִם, אֵין תוֹרָה; גַּם נְבִיאֶיהָ לֹא מָצְאוּ חָזוֹן מֵאֲדֹנָי. יֵשְׁבוּ לָאָרֶץ יִדְּמוּ זִקְנֵי בַת צִיּוֹן; הֶעֱלוּ עָפָר עַל רֹאשָׁם, חָגְרוּ שַׂקִּים; הוֹרִידוּ לָאָרֶץ רֹאשָׁן, בְּתוּלוֹת יְרוּשָׁלָיִם. כָּלוּ בַדְּמָעוֹת עֵינַי, חֳמַרְמְרוּ מֵעַי; נִשְׁפַּךְ לָאָרֶץ כְּבֵדִי. נפשם, הולכי כימו שם, מועידיך, מועד למו. הבאס ירושלים, מואשב לך, מנחמיך, בסולס. ... כי גדול קיים שברך, ניר פלוך. נביאיך, חזו לך שוא וספל, ולא גילו על עוונך, להשיב שבותך. ... צעקו עלייך כפיים, כל עוברי דרך, שרקו ויניעו ראשם. הבת ירושלים, הזאת העיר, ... קלילת יופי, ... לכל הארץ. פצו עלייך פיהם, כל אויבייך, שרקו, ... אמרו, בלענו, אך זה היום שקיווינו, מצאנו, ראינו. עשה אדניי אשר זמם, ביצע אמרתו, אשר ציווה מימי קדם, הרס ולא חמל. וישמח עלייך אויב, הרים קרן צריך, צעקי. Tomi, raini, valai. … שרשי חמאים ליבך. נויךה, פני אדוני. … כפייך, על נפש עוללייך. … ראש כל חוצות. רֵי אדוני, והביטה, למי עוללת כה. אם תאכלנה נשים פרים, עוללי טפוחים…

אַשְׁפָּתוֹ יִשְׂבָּע, עַד יָלִין בַּעֲצָמָיו, מְחַטַּאת סְדֹם. הָפוּךְ כְּמוֹ רָגַע, לֹא חָלוּ בְיָדָיִם. זֶה חֶל נִזְכֶּה לְמִשֶּׁלֶג, צָפוּ מֵחָלָב. עֶצֶם לִפְנִימִים, סָפִיר פִּזְרוֹנָם. חָשַׂךְ מִשְׁכּוֹר תָּרוֹם, לֹא נִקְרְאוּ בַחוּצוֹת. צָפַד עָלָיו עַצְמוֹ, רָבֵץ יֹאכַל עֵץ. טוֹבִים הָיוּ חַלְלֵי חֶרֶב, מֵחַלְלֵי רָעָב, וְשֶׁהֵם יָזוּבוּ מְדֻקָּרִים, מִתְּנוּבוֹת שָׂדָי. שִׁמְרָה חַמְנִיּוֹת, שְׁלוּם יַלְדֵיהֶם. הָיוּ לְבָרוֹת לְמוֹ, שֶׁבֶר בַּעֲצָמִי, כִּי לֹא עֲדִינָיו יִסְתַּמּוּסוּי. שָׁפַךְ חֲרוֹן אַפּוֹ, וַתֶּשֶׁשׁ בְּצִיּוֹן, וַתֵּךְ חַל יְסוֹדוֹתֶיהָ. לֹא הֶאֱמִינוּ מַלְכֵי אֶרֶץ, כֹּל יֹשְׁבֵי תֵבֵל, כִּי יָבֹא צַר וְאוֹיֵב בְּשַׁעֲרֵי יְרוּשָׁלָיִם. מֵחַטּוֹת נְבִיאֶיהָ, עֲוֹנוֹת. סורו, סורו, אל תגעו, כי נגעו גם נו. אמרו בגויים, לא יוסיפו לגור. פני אדוני חולקם, לא יוסיף הביטם. פני כהנים לא נשאו, זקנים לא חננו. עודינו תכלינה עינינו, אל עזרתנו הבל. בצפיותינו צפינו אל גוי לא יושיע. צדו צעדינו מלכת ברחובותינו, קרב קצינו, מלאו ימינו כי בא קצינו. קלים היו רודפינו מנשרי שמים, על ההרים דלקונו, במדבר ארבו לנו. רוח אפינו, משיח אדוני, נלכד בשחיתותם, אשר אמרנו, בצלו נחיה בגויים. שישי ושמחי בת אדום, יושבת בארץ עוץ, גם עליך תעבור כוס, תשכרי ותתערי. תם עוונך בת ציון, לא יוסיף. עד לאיסייך, כד אבינך בסיועים, אילו אחתויסא. זכור, אדוני, מה היה לנו. הביט וראה את חרפתנו. נחלתנו נהפכה לזרים, בתינו לנכרים. יתומים היינו, אין אב. אימותינו כאלמנות. מימינו בכסף שתינו, עצינו במחיר יבואו. על צווארנו נרדפנו, יגענו ולא הונח לנו. מצרים.

I need. סיפקע בלילה. ... בכי, סיפקע בלילה. ... פשט is, ... ציווי. ... ממילא, בכי סיפקע, ... בין ובנך. ... עבודה ... פרק כ״ב, ... ציווי. עבודה is בכי סיפקע. ... How do you come to cry? ... How do you? People find it very hard to cry. So the ... says, how does a person attain בכי סיפקע? It's not his nature to cry. So he says, יכין עצמו. You prepare yourself properly and understand the ... ... The reason why we don't cry is maybe we don't understand what we're saying. ... There's no klal. He says, ... יכין עצמו. ... The truth is, Rabosai, if you read the ... how could you not cry? It's so much, so much ... It's unbelievable. יכין עצמו. Prepare yourself properly.

I ... place in the gate, the shtub, ... bissel ... I saw an unbelievable sam sefer in the drashes. The sefer says, You will cry ... ... ... ... The truth is in the ... place. The obvious thing. Part of the stories of the ... in the Midrashim. All you have to do is not be masiach daas, and ... ... ... They'll happen by itself. ... ... But what we do is we're masiach daas. We try to take our mind—don't take your mind off anything—and ... ... ... ... ... But there's a chiddush in that ... ... The chiddush. For a person can't cry for something called ... ... ... ... to cry. The person can't cry, he says, and there's something called ... ... ... You know, what do we say? ... ... ... You see there's something called a ... ... ... Also the ... Zogt es in a oifen, vos it keil hertzach, zi a bech. Der Rebbe zogt, mein, a shaylah a tiefe gedayne: vos mein kovea? What is a kril bechi? Ve'atah shomea kril bchies amcha Yisrael, what is it? Der Rebbe, vos banacht. Seems like there’s a hadgasha, bochei sifkeh balayla. Avosta, why by night? Vens a tisha b'Av something. Seems like the night, bochei sifkeh balayla. In Yalkut Shimoni, there’s an interesting medrash. The medrash says, Klal Yisroel nichapt al na'aleis Bavel, sham yashavnu bachinu, ... gevent. So Yirmiyah told them, vos ti gevent, ein tchev, vos nisht geven a dem matzav. Geven klug. Nisht odem, the medrash shteit klug. Mit churbanetzat hot gevust az Klal Yisroel tzu zeinen vet men glaych niga. So he put them to work. He made them work, azoy zogt the medrash. Hot gemacht zikh a masechta, zayn chanunim. Der golus, der golus lost nisht geven. Dos a chelek fun der golus, mistarev. Di tirdus, ... farshtanen, melost nisht geven. If you were able to cry, volt geven di geulah. So they tell this to Yirmiyah. Yirmiyah, you want me to cry? Ich ken nisht. Ich arbet a gantsn tog, ... banacht. So Yirmiyah said, O, banacht? Arbest oych banacht? You’re not working by night. So you cry by night. So Klal Yisroel says, And Yirmiyah, you will cry by day. It's a ... tzvan tzikshah, a chiyuv. It was a hesped. And the Rabbeinu Shlolem says, Du banacht, un Yirmiyah batag, ich vil veinen ... tzvan tzikshah. It's a medrash to Yalkut, Yirmiyah perek ches. So l'choira, dos is a bachai sifke. Yirmiyah was telling him to cry by night. This was a hesped. This was the hesped they had with Yirmiyah, du banacht un ich batag. But ... Gemara, Gemara in Sanhedrin, daf daled amud beis, zogt, Bachai sifke balaylah shekalah bocheh balaylah, bocheh imoi. They cry with him. So cry by night, others cry with you. Vos vil der Gemara? So pashut you could come and say, the Gemara fataytsht the pasuk. It's just a pshat in the pasuk. Bachai sifke, havas a double loshon. Why bachai sifke? Bachai. When the teretz is, Chazal zogin, Tzvei batei Mikdash. Der Gemara zogt a pshat: If you cry by night, others cry with you, so it's bachai sifke. Un efsher gar, s'yaninyan, machnyenen veinen. It's also.

Part of the avodah. Avodah zain bechi. ... nitzta, nitzta mamitziyus. If you cry by night, yerada others cry with you. Daf ma'oidah zain under the efshar habayisai, ... Banacht, the avodah is vein. Fakert, it's dafke banacht. It's one of the—it's the first kinah we said: Lail zeh yivkayon bonai. ... The nacht, the nacht fun Tisha B'Av, is nikva oveinu, ... Amal, mevein patog, ... menachem you. ... I ask, the loshon of the kinos, the ikker de kinos ... Banacht is not aveinu. Shekol haboicheh is boicheh imoi, un dos alein iz sheim b'kinos. ... The first thing. ... the night before, ... the first zach is vein. Lail zeh yivkayon bonai. But dos iz the avodah fun the nacht, shekol haboicheh boicheh imoi, ... the avodah fun bechirah, al kein tziyon bemar tivkeh, Yerushalayim titen kolah. So you see, there's two inyanim. The first inyan is the bechirah. The tzeite inyan is vos? Titen kolah. סידור בחירה, סידור עתידים חיים. You know, the ... it's a ... אילו בחירה, בחירה אחת, אין בחירה. ... ... אין בחירה. ... What's the pshat? ... אילו בחירה, בחירה אחת, איין, one בחירה. ... ... ... אילו בחירה, בחירה אחת. Says the Mashgiach, ... בחירה ... ... אפילו בחירה אחת אין. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... So the d'mois, l'Rabbeinu Shlom zucht a dema, l'Rabbeinu Shlom zucht a bechirah. Ani yeshenah v'libi er. In Galus haBeisai, mishloft. Shkiach vatais, what's the... what's the libi? What's made the libi er? He says, A gevein is sfas halev. It's come from the heart. Im heart is allamal er. Ani yeshenah, amol in Galus shloft. Obed em heart, ot a dos is er, dos is uf. There's an interesting Gemara, b'mistarim tivkeh nafshi. The Rabbeinu Shlom weeps. It says in the Gemara, b'mistarim tivkeh nafshi, Gemara, b'basra. S'do a platz, az chuvtzachon mistarim, un dortn Rabbeinu Shlom weint. Gemara Bava Basra. What's the b'mistarim tivkeh nafshi? Zogt the Maharal, der mistarim is the nefesh adam, the Yid. S'do a platz, dortn... is the Rabbeinu Shlom.

The Rebbe's ... ... What's ...? ... Is the Rebbe in the heart from the Yid. So I need ... ... Is the ... בעצם, the Yid is the Rebbe. I want to tell you something very interesting. You know, Klal Yisroel ... so lots of ... The ... that's is the ... ... the maaseh from the ... ... What's ...? ... So what? ... Why is it so terrible to cry? ... What is crying come? I want to tell you something interesting. Crying people cry for pain. Sometimes when they're in pain, they cry. People cry when they're missing something. ... ... The Rambam says, ... ... in Hilchos Teshuva, perek beis, halacha daled, says, Midarkei ... ... is ... A vos darf vein? What's the point? Hashtenaches. Why is it mitdakye? See, the Rambam's up the klal, the baal teshuva geit ahn. Vos, vos klagt? It's l'cheira dafn zogin, the gevein is the dveikus. So the kesher that a Yid has with the Ribono Shel Olam. Un der kesher, when it comes to reach to the Ribono Shel Olam, it's me'orer this gevein, it's me'orer. Havos, al demistaber tifke nafshi, the Ribono Shel Olam, in the nefesh ha'adam, ... I want to tell you an interesting thing. Yosef, when he was megaleh to his brothers, he was megaleh b'bechi. Zei shteit in Chazal, the gevein. The Ribono Shel Olam says, Azoi vi Yosef is megaleh gevein, says, ... b'bechi, v'lich oiches, tzorich nemen klal Yisroel, I'll bring back Klal Yisroel b'bechi. Moshiach comes ... It's like Gemara, Chazal. K'sheim shelo piyas Yosef es echav ela b'bechi, kach ein HaKadosh Baruch Hu go'el es banav ela b'bechi, shene'emar, b'vechi yavo'u u'v'sachnunim ... A vos veint men? The Ribono Shel Olam is redeeming us, right? So why do we cry? So first of all, thank you so clear. Many learn, many meforshim, that the Ribono Shel Olam is going to cry. Others learn that Klal Yisroel is going to cry. A vos, vos veint men? It's a happy... It's interesting, we find a lot of times with people, unite with cry. This is this Chazal: busa del bechiya. When the Torah says, Shechiyah, nasim. If bechiyah is kirvah, there's a certain bechiyah when a person is nunt. Yosef, he was with an echav b'bechiyah. ... They'll kill him. So Yosef, ... zayin ... and lichvazin the Moshiach ben Yosef. I want to tell you, ... the gantze maaseh from Yosef is really through the doiros, ... Beis HaMikdash. The kesher is a stark tzevishen ... vas Yosef hot gemacht mit the bris hasach, has a lot to do with how the rule is going to be. And what's the taich? Yosef's kirvah. He took them with such kirvah, but the kirvah given, a ruchniyusdige kirvah. I'm going to tell you again, I know that I'm talking and talking, I understand the meitechs of Tiferes Zachin. It's נישט.

I'm saying very poshut. The chiya is a davar ruchni ad me'oid. The reason why we can't cry today is, well, it's a davar ruchni ad me'oid. Sidur Chazalim, perek d'Rabbi Eliezer. The Ribono Shel Olam gave bechi to Adam Harishon as a matanah. It's one of the matanos that He gave to Adam Harishon. Adam Harishon, ... from Gan Eden, and he was so בצער, HaKadosh Baruch Hu gave it bechi. Whenever you cry, you'll feel a lot better. It's a matanah. ... Adam Harishon was thrown out of Gan Eden, felt a richuk, a tremendous richuk. Bechiah is the opposite of richuk. When a person cries, ... must say, davar ruchni ad me'oid, kesher with the Ribono Shel Olam. It's something very, very ... and in golus, golus, because it's golus, ... the yetzer hara ... אילו בכי זה בכי אחר. בכי אחר, אינה. The emes'e bechiah could mamash geulah sheb'geulah, the most unbelievable geulah for ein bechi. You know, I want to tell you something interesting. The Rambam brings a ma'aseh from the ... Yirmiyah, what's the matter? Plato met Yirmiyah. Ze isachten halach. Plato, the great philosopher, meets Yirmiyah. He sees Yirmiyah standing by the stones of the Beis Hamikdash, and he's crying. So Plato says to him, Chashteidig, you're such a chaklugen mensch. Who cries? First of all, you know, today, I'll tell you, a person who's a man doesn't cry. It's a shrekliche velt. A man doesn't cry. Plato was telling this to Yirmiyah. He asked Yirmiyah, Chashteidig, how do you cry? And he said to him, interestingly, he said, Vos iz geven, iz geven. Vos iz geven, iz geven. So what are you crying about? It's a thing of the past. You don't cry about something that's—it's past you. Why are you crying? And second of all, what are you crying about a building for? Crying about a building? Tacha, it's avanim, it's stones. So Yirmiyah tells him, Ask me any question you want. Anything. And he answers. Yeah, he started asking him philosophy, Chazal, and Yirmiyah answers one thing after another. After he got all the answers, Yirmiyah says, You know, where do you think I got all this chochmah from? I got it from this binyan, from this Beis Hamikdash. That's why I cry over these stones. I'll ask me a kasha. The second question, how do I cry about something in the past? This I'm not going to answer. This I don't want to give you an answer. The Ramah, the Ramah in Torah Olam brings this maaseh. A maaseh the Ramah brings, that Plato asks him, tell me why you're crying about the chavanim, and then he tells him all my chochmah comes from here. I, he asks, why am I crying about the past? Then geicht in Yishtem. Why not? ... Pashut. Al tameg anter chutz fun dem. I'm sorry. There's no way to explain a goy the bechirah. It's a different bechirah. Plus, Plato understands we're crying about the past. ... I'm not crying about the avar. We're crying kisufim, to beg for a little ... That's a different bechirah. It's another bechirah, and this is not for a goy to understand. Unsi kodesh, ... a goy ... doesn't understand. ... We say this, ... we ask, take our d'mos and put it b'noicha liyos, ...

You see, ... the bechiyos ... where does it go? It goes in the ... It's extremely, very deep, in a makom where nothing. And that's Chazal: af al pi she'ein ... tefillah, ... d'ma'os lo yinalu. It's ... himul. The d'ma'os ... something completely different. Bachai sifkeh, the bechiyah was ... is a bechiyah of missing, missing the Ribono Shel Olam. You know, what is koel bechiyos? Let me tell you a mechadike zach. The Brisker Rav explains, vos is shofar? It's kol shofar. It doesn't say shofar; it says kol shofar. Vos is kol shofar? It's a tefillah. It's a ... It's a tefillah, kol shofar. Ki ata shomea kol shofar u'ma'azin teruah. I would say that the kol of kol bechiyos is the tefillah. It's the same thing as kol shofar. In every bechiyah, it's ... a tefillah from ... That is the bechiyah, the ... bechiyah. You know, on Yom Kippur zogt men, v'kol d'mama dakah yishma. Vos is a kol d'mama dakah? Vos is this? Vos is ... kol d'mama dakah? ... this from the malachim, see, hakol is kimat hefech. ... hakol. The ... nevuah, tavla mevinah ... Shema, b'kolah. ... b'kolah, b'kol ruach hakodesh. Kol always means something, which is, for example, ... bas kol. What's a bas kol? Same nusach, bas kol. What's a bas kol? See, the bas for a nevuah, it's a ruchniyusdike kol. Every time it says kol, ... kol shomea, kol shofar. ... ruchniyusdike tefillah, hegeishah, tefillah, ... but the das is their tefillah. I'll tell you something interesting. I'm going to show you how this is so, so ברור. The Medrash zugt, as Gavriel ... and he ... Moshe Rabbeinu. In the Yam Suf, he was crying. Basya hears a kol of a cry. Why was he crying, Moshe? ... Gavriel ... כדי שיבכה, ותתמלא רחמה ותחמול עליו, דכיון שראתה ... חמלה עליו, זאָגט דער Ari HaKadosh, in the bechiyah for Moshe, she ... tefillah ... I want to ... If you notice, what does Basya say? She hears the kol and she says, 'Miyaldei haIvrim zeh.' ... How did she know it's a yaldei Ivri? She hears the kol. There's a very famous Baal HaTurim. Baal HaTurim says that it was really, v'hinei naar bocheh, it was Aaron. Aaron was crying. Read that pasuk. Aaron was crying for Moshe Rabbeinu. So, v'hinei naar bocheh, Aaron could cry for... That's the al yevri, right? It's a geven fun a Yid, a tzaddiker's son, geven. Vos iz do taych? It's not a regular crying. It was a crying, but according to this medrash, taptifad the head, k'dei shetachmol Siftashtanim, that this was מידה of aiver. It was a different type of bechiyah, a Yiddishe ha'ever. With this, I think we can understand what's the taych. In golus, the Ribono Shel Olam is... vos veint men? Men veint al tzaar, a richuk, tzaar, a hergesh. You know, there's a very nice maaseh. This really is me'orer. The Maril Diskin was walking in the street. He sees a child crying. Nu, kinder veinen, vos a kind veint, yeah. The Maril walked past. He said, Wait a minute, I want to go back.

I want to go back. And he starts to listen, and he said, What are you listening to? What? He says, When you hear the cry of a child, ... they'll bein from the ... That's what it is. The ... is, ... Tonight he said an interesting ... ... listen to ... I think it's very important, ... ... the ... ... the ... ... the ... ... The ... ... The Rabbeinu Shalom revealed ... It's a very, very ... You find in the Gemara, the Gemara ... that when he went to the chuppah, what did he hear? That the Rabbeinu Shalom was ... He said, What? ... should go ... What do you see clearly in the Beis Hamikdash? ... the galus, the galus is galus from ... You see that the taich of galus in Chazal is the ... ... should go ... Das is the nekudah from ben. Un di geveyn fun ben, dos is bachai, sifka alai. Things like that. And the question is, like we started, what happens if a person doesn't feel it? It's there. It's there. And the koach must be, must be. This koach is able to be shover all the ... It goes straight to Shamayim, ha-tefillah. It's like ... af al pi she'eino lo ... tefillah. What's a ...? ... tefillah is a kesher with the Ribono Shel Olam, ... tefillos. The Ribono Shel Olam says, I'm not mekabel the tefillah. The bechiyah, that is the kirvah ..., ... the geulah. Now there's a very famous Chasam Sofer. The Chasam Sofer explains that the mesabel on the Mikdash, it's not the pshat zocheh that you'll be zocheh to have geulah, but the ... alain, dos is the zocheh the ro'eh right now the binyan. How is it the binyan? How if a person is misabel, it's the binyan. So the remez is, there's Torah. If you're misabel, that means it's alive, something that's not here, like what Plato was telling them. It's a thing of the past. What are you? ... is left. It's not a thing of the past, right? ... came and said, got tif. It's a very ... ... what is the ...? It's shekol na al shulchan aviv, it's the richuk. So when a person cries, he's misabel, he has the kiruv. So zoicheh d'raya, he sees right now their kiruv to the Ribono Shel Olam. You know, I know that people have talked about it in the past. Kimat every Yid that goes to the Kosel cries. What is it? Good, so we all know the famous line that everybody says, that he's crying because he doesn't know why he's crying, right? I don't think that that's what it is. I don't think that's the pshat. I think the pshat is very poshut, that bechiyah is the Ribono Shel Olam, b'mistater b'toch hanefesh. Yedel Yid's neshama, the Ribono Shel Olam is crying. And when the kiruv is there, the moment a Yid becomes close to Him, He comes out by itself. And that's what he's trying to tell, I can't explain it to you because it's not explainable. There's nothing to explain. It's an aterlich zach. It's a ruchniyusdige zach. It's a very deep pshat, and I understand that it took a...

Well, Alan, till I came to the point, I understand I was going from one thing to the next, and I'm trying to give you the ... the bechirah free will isn't coming from the mind. It's libi, it's something from the lev. It's some libi, libi al halev. It's the lev. It's something which is not in here. It's not up in the head. It's a ... that's in the heart. Therefore, ... Yirmiyah is telling ... I can't explain it. The Yiddishe heart's farshteyt, there's no way to explain it to you. It's the ... from the chalev. This is bachai, sifka ... You have to cry. The crying is itself the ... The crying itself is the kesher with the Ribono Shel Olam. This becomes ... I mean, that's the ... Why is שערי דמעות לא ננעלו? Why is שערי דמעות לא ננעלו? Why is it not closed? Why should you say I'm closing the שערי דמעות? And the teretz is, it's a kesher mehudak with the Eibishter, and that can't stop. It's the tefisas hakesher, the mashal. If you daven, so you want something, so HaKadosh Baruch Hu can come and say, I'm not responding. This is meila, mehudaka d'Rabbeinu Shalom. There's no way to stop it because it's kudsha brich hu v'Yisrael chad. This is the kesher with the Ribono Shel Olam. This is where it is. And the meila, it can't be nital, because it's continuous. It is the kesher with the Ribono Shel Olam. Tefillah is a type of kesher. It's one of the things that we're niskasher with the Ribono Shel Olam through tefillah. Dima is the kesher. Tefillah is how to be niskasher. Dima means noitcha lies tachas kisei hakavod. It reaches the kisei hakavod because it's nikusher with the Ribono Shel Olam. ... through all the zachin that we talked about, the longing we have for the Ribono Shel Olam, the longing the Ribono Shel Olam has for us, that itself will bring out. Be'ezras Hashem tomorrow, we go through every one of the kines one by one and explain every kinah. Hopefully, be able to do it in Yerushalayim, in Beis.
