אילו הכנסנו לארץ ישראל ולא בנה לנו את בית הבחירה — דיינו

in the goddess of Pesach We say the dayanus, right? The 15 dayanus, all the different ilu's. The very very end. Dayenu. And finally, ilu ichnisonu l'eretz Yisrael v'lo bonu lonu es Beis Hamikdash, dayenu. The Shibbolei Haleket in his nusach of the Haggadah, and other rishonim as well, they have another dayenu. They throw in one more ilu. After ilu nosan lonu es haTorah v'lo ichnisonu l'eretz Yisrael dayenu, they have like this. Ilu ichnisonu l'eretz Yisrael v'lo bonu lonu es Beis Hamikdash, dayenu. And ilu bonu lonu es Beis Hamikdash aval v'lo bonu lonu es Beis Hamikdash Habonui, that also would have been dayenu. In the nusach of the Shibbolei Haleket, there's two of the dayenus that reference the Beis Hamikdash. Ilu ichnisonu l'eretz Yisrael v'lo bonu lonu Beis Hamikdash, dayenu. Ilu bonu lonu es Beis Hamikdash v'lo bonu lonu es Beis Hamikdash Habonui, again dayenu. And I think the pshat is poshut, it's so poshut we almost don't even have to say it, but we're going to say it anyways. And that is that we mention when we learn the Torah on the Yom Kippur the Rambam in the beginning of Hilchos Melachim in perek aleph halacha aleph says, "Shalosh mitzvos nitztavu Yisrael b'shaas knisasam l'aretz." There were three mitzvos that the Yidden were commanded they were going to have to do when they entered Eretz Yisrael. Limnos lahem melech, ulahachris Hamikdash. And the Rambam brings a makor to all three. What's the makor? That the Yidden were told that when you're going to enter Eretz Yisrael you have a chiyuv to build the Beis Hamikdash. Shenemar, "V'shichanti sidrosum uvosa sham." And we said that it asks that at first glance this would seem to contradict what the himself says right in the beginning of this is the first in the says there's a to build a house that it should be it should be prepared by the the here too brings there's a to build a but the brings a different car he brings us straight to the alpha says that there's a of space up here and the says that there's a and the says that there's a to build a and the much is very much to try to be of the so we said and we said maybe it's possible maybe it's even that it's in the in safer the volume the Friday but really throughout safer the volume that tells that when you're going to enter the land of Canaan I'm going to find the city that I'm going to choose that it should be the holy chosen city and then within that city there's going to be a that I'm going to choose and that's going to be a very very holy place and from that point forward all the that you're going to bring is going to have to be in that college or that college or my second is going to be over there that's what the is going to be that's what you're going to be that's what you're going to be it's all going to be in that chosen place now the truth is that the from the second year that they had left they already had a right when they entered Canaan before they were told where that chosen place was they already had a but I feel the Torah out of its way to say that despite the fact that you're going to have a Mishkan with you all along, but there will be a time where we're going to raise the level a little bit. Where I'm going to say, don't just have a Mishkan, but I want you to now build that Mishkan or a bias in the Machon in that place, in that chosen place. In other words, it's from the Torah, just read the Torah. That there were two dinim in Machon Hamikdash. There was a Mishkan and it's like that was a mitzvah that God gave as soon as they left Mitzrayim. This is something that they got after but they already went ahead and they built the Mishkan. And they were told this is something you always have to have with you and they had it with them all the time. 39 years in the midbar, they had it for 14 years in Gilgal, they had it for 369 years in Shiloh, they had it for 57 years in Nov but then also told them that there's going to be a day where I'm going to tell you that I want you to convert that Mishkan into a bias. I want you to convert it into the Machon and that's going to be in that very very chosen place. And that place was chosen in the very very end of with the story of David and then finally in the fourth year of his went ahead and he built the that of finding a base of was true it was existed even when they had a Mishkan. They had a Mishkan from year two. But they always knew that they were going to one day have the Machon and that was going to now take the Mishkan that they had and was going to raise it to another level. It's possible these are the two the in beginning of says last bias there's a mitzvah to build a bias. What's the it should be by carbonos but also mitzvah there's another mitzvah says the and And mitzvah is when you're going to come to Eretz Yisrael, you should go ahead and try to find that place that Hakadosh Baruchu promised over and over and over. We counted over 20 times in Sefer Devarim that there's going to be a chosen place, there's going to be a Makom Asher Yivchar. Now, you're not going to know where it is until I tell you, but I want you to make a shtadlanus. I want you to go ahead and find it. And the Rambam was minded that a shtadlanus is a mitzvah. Sholish mitzvahs netzavim as an asarah hadashos. Livnos Hammelech Ulahagris Shalam Amalek Vilivnos Hammelech Beis Hamikdash. We know that already. The Torah says "Uve'asu li Mikdash veshachanti vesocham" is tamei b'eis Hazeh. This is Livnos Hammelech Beis Hamikdash. This is the building of Beis Hamikdash, to find that chosen place. The Rambam is mechadish that the Beis Hamikdash wasn't just something Hashem said, "I'm going to give you in the future." There's a mitzvah "Veshichanti vesocham" to be doresh, try to find it. Try to find it. It's a mitzvah asah, an independent mitzvah asah of "Uve'asu li Mikdash veshachanti vesocham" just to say with a shavka. This mitzvah of "Veshichanti vesocham" "V'asu li Mikdash" was true even when they had a Mikdash. So even when they had a Mikdash, they were mekayem "Uve'asu li Mikdash." But a feilu hachi, so that's it then. Even bishas maiseh when you have the Mikdash, "Veshichanti vesocham" "V'asu li Mikdash" is still a mitzvah to go ahead and to find that place, that Makom Asher Yivchar. It's mefurash that there are two dinim in the Beis Hamikdash. This is the Beis Hamikdash, the Mikdash. This is the "Uve'asu li Mikdash veshachanti vesocham." And then there's the "Veshichanti vesocham." There's the Beis Hamikdash. There's building a Mikdash in the place that Hakadosh Baruchu chose to be mashpiah Shechinah. What's the difference? What's the difference between the "Uve'asu li Mikdash veshachanti vesocham" and the base of here is that we spoke out from the that the says that when you didn't have a mishkan it was our abode and I'm going to come and I'm going to be a guest, right? Milan Archen. I says I'm going to check into your hotel and I'm going to visit you and I'm going to spend some time with you. When the miktash was in the I said that home will be my home and when we going to convene together it's not going to be that I'm visiting you, you're going to be visiting me. You have the source. This is going to be an Indian of Shina on such a manifest level that literally going to have a cuz owns a house. You don't just come and check into hotel. I literally owns domicile and that's the that's the of what a was able to feel when he came to the miktash the base of here first and this what he was able to feel the years when he was visiting all the different places and the different phases of the mishkan but I think it's positive positive that when we understand on a historical level on a fundamental level that there were two very very different of there was the of mishkan where says I'll be a guest in your house and that's for miktash has a that's our bias that we're inviting into versus the base of here which is base that's the of the the of the of the meaning of the of the you brought us into now you bring us into you even you even gave us a and not only did you give us a but you even gave us a you the Khair you have to say why would the Mishkan be referred to as Beis Hamikdash? So, some of the it's not always so maduyak these lashonos, but even Shiloh was a bayis, Chazal say. It was a bayis, it was a Beis Hamikdash. Just didn't have a tikra, but a bayis it was. So, even if we had Shiloh, it would have been dayenu. But Shiloh, as great as Shiloh was, it didn't come to the Beis Hamikdash, the ultimate Beis Hamikdash. And that's why in the nusach of dayenu, we go ahead and we're michalek and we split the Beis Hamikdash into two. What do you mean? Beis Hamikdash and Beis Habechirah, they hein hein advarim. Beis Hamikdash is the Rambam in Hilchos Beis Habechirah perek aleph halacha aleph. And Beis Habechirah is the Rambam in Hilchos Melachim perek aleph halacha aleph. On that note, on that note, hadran alach, hadran alach perek parshas Mattos, this week we learn shishah sedarim learn Kodshim every daf Gemara, every word Gemara, every line Gemara, every Rebbe is a kiyum of Nishmas kol bar Yisrael it's a beginning of of bringing korbanos, it's a beginning of doing the avodah in the Beis Hamikdash. We should be zocheh, we should be zocheh to go to Eretz Yisrael again. We should be zocheh to have a Beis Hamikdash. We should be zocheh again to have the Beis Habechirah. And we should be zocheh to be able to do the avodah v'sham noycha min hazvachim u'min hapsochim asher yagi'a dam malachim b'chacham l'ratzon. And we should have the opportunity to sing shirah to Hakadosh Baruch Hu v'noidelcha shir chadash al ge'ulasenu v'al pidus nafshainu. Amen. V'amen.
