עם ישראל תמיד עלה להר הבית

What is this dove? Even if you place its chicks beneath it , it never rests. So it is with Israel. Even though the Temple was destroyed, they did not cancel the three annual pilgrimages. Do not think the people of Israel said, "Well, the Temple is destroyed, there's no reason to come." No. The people of Israel always, always came to the site of the Temple, even in its destruction. Throughout all generations, the people of Israel would always make the pilgrimage. There is no such thing as abandoning the Temple site . They always ascended to the Temple Mount. am
