I want to tell you something very very strong.

Chazon is always about seeing the future and here Tisha B'Av is to see the past, so someone asked me how does  fit in with Tisha B'Av? Strong question. So I answered like this. Everybody knows that the Beis Hamikdash was destroyed because people didn't love each other. What does it mean to not love one another? It means I don't see you, if I hate you I don't see you, simple as it is!

So listen to this, everybody knows that the Beis Hamikdash (Temple in Jerusalem) was destroyed on a Saturday night. On the very last Shabbos they were there, they knew the Beis Hamikdash has just a few more minutes to be standing. Can you imagine with how much love the people met each other in the Beis Hamikdash that last Shabbos? People who hated each other their whole lives, people who spit at each other, can you imagine the way they saw each other that last Shabbos?

So every Shabbos Chazon the holiest thing happens to us yidden. The Ribbono Shel Olam is showing us every Jew who ever lived from Avraham Avinu until Mashiach is coming. He is showing us every Yiddle and how to love them, and Mamash we don’t have to wait for the last Shabbos to do this!

This is the Chazon!

This is the  Vision!

Good Shabbos!
