...We were six hours away from eternal paradise. If we had closed the deal, if the Tablets had entered our possession the seventeenth of Tammuz would have opened the gates to the ultimate paradigm shift...we would have stepped straight into the Golden Age of Mashiach and the world-to-come....Instead it became the start of all our woes. And yet HaShem always plants healing tools inside our hardships. Since Tammuz is the month of our fall, it must also provide the key to its repair.
