Shabbat which is the 9th of Av

Now the advantage of Shabbat Chazon being the 9th of Av itself can be properly appreciated. In addition to its being a day that is shown the temple, it also the day of Moshiach’s birth. On this day it is stressed how he stands ready to redeem the Jewish people and rebuild the Temple.

This gives strength that not only shall we see the Temple from afar but that it should indeed be close.

May indeed we merit very speedily to the rebuilding of the third and eternal Temple!
