Who Merits to See the Beis HaMikdash Today? The Daily Lesson from the Holy
Tzaddik Rabbi Eliezer Berland shlit"a

The lesson of our teacher, Rav Berland shlit"a, from the night of Monday, 26 Tammuz 5782, Parshat Masei, during the Three Weeks, after Maariv: "If a person merits to be 'Ayin' (nothingness), he can annihilate all of the Sitra Achra!"
How does one leave the Land of Canaan and enter the Land of Israel?
Jerusalem and the Holy Temple were not burned!
These are his holy words:
Buki ben Yagli, before whom everything was revealed, all the secrets, the upper spheres and the lower spheres.
For Achsah (Achsah is the daughter of Calev ben Yefuneh, prince of the tribe of Judah and one of the spies who did not bring a bad report about the Land of Israel; she married Othniel ben Kenaz. Her story appears in the Book of Joshua, chapter 15, and again in the Book of Judges, chapter 1) asked her father for water; in the Negev there is no water, from Beersheba southward there is no water. So he made for her upper spheres and lower spheres, and he said that whoever has the upper and lower realms revealed to him, and sees from one end of the world to the other, he conquered Kiryat Sefer; he was a king and prince for 40 years. He is buried in the Cave of the Patriarchs, which extends to Othniel ben Kenaz.
Therefore, everyone needs to travel tonight to Othniel ben Kenaz; it belongs to the Cave of the Patriarchs.
Avner ben Ner is found inside the cave itself, and he is the one who released Joab after Joab took him to Chumash, essentially a fifth, so he lived for another 5 minutes. He grabbed Joab, and then everyone cried before him, "Release him," and he released him.
Therefore, he is buried right next to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, because he is on the level of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, like Yael (Judges 5:24), "Blessed above women shall Yael be... blessed above women in the tent" = 1100. For Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, and Leah were reincarnated in Yael, in gematria 1100. Sarah, Rebecca, Rachel, Leah, and also David, for David was also reincarnated in her.
A person needs to pray that David be reincarnated in him, then he will be able to say Psalms all day. If David is reincarnated in him, he will be able to pray all day like David.
Yael, who merited that David be reincarnated in her, and through this she stabbed Sisera—because it is possible that a person does not wake up, but if a person is stabbed, he must wake up.
Yael stabbed Sisera only in the temple, and that was the miracle: "At her feet he bowed, he fell, he lay; at her feet he bowed, he fell; where he bowed, there he fell dead" (ibid. 5:27). 'Shadud' (dead/destroyed) is the angel Metatron; she sent the angel Metatron, and this is "The mother of Sisera wailed" (ibid. 5:28). When a mother cries, even an Arab woman, even a terrorist like the mother of Sisera who was from Hamas, but she cried. What she cried, what she managed to cry, they have been crying for 3,000 years over the tears she shed.
"The mother of Sisera wailed," 'wailed' is written in the book 'Karnayim' as the tent peg, for she saw her walking with the peg. They had screens back then, not idiots like today; they had screens without satellites, they would see everything that was happening on the battlefield, who was shooting an arrow, who was throwing a spear, who was throwing a sword. Sisera's mother knew that Yael was walking with the peg, so she prayed, she intended that the peg would be driven into her, into her heart, into her head, but instead of it being driven into her, she saw that Sisera was not returning.
"And if not" (Exodus 32:32), Moses said, someone will come, say 'Ayin' (nothing), for she merited to be 'Ayin'—for if a person merits to be 'Ayin', he can annihilate all of the Sitra Achra.
And this is the entire work of the Three Weeks, to turn from the Land of Canaan to the Land of Israel.
"And Moses sent them to scout the Land of Canaan" (Numbers 13:17), it was still the Land of Canaan. What is the Land of Canaan?
The Land of Canaan is when the Erev Rav (mixed multitude) rules over it! And before the end of the sixth millennium, for 28 years, their kingdom will be here. Edom will come and rule for 9 months, and they will have to flee to the deserts; they will kill everyone here, and this will be in 190 years.
Now, it was the Erev Rav whose rule must be annihilated, and this is only through the Three Weeks, when one rises for Chatzot (midnight) both by day and by night; then one annihilates them. Then one sees the Holy Temple in reality, for the Temple was not burned, and Jerusalem was not burned. All the houses that were built now are on the foundations of the houses of David and Solomon; we are now living inside the houses of David and Solomon.
And whoever says Tikkun Chatzot, "Though you rend your eyes with paint" (Jeremiah 4:30), he will see the Holy Temple built, the Temple built upon its foundations.
And may we merit the complete Geulah (Redemption) speedily in our days, Amen.
