Gadolhatorah
I would have thought with klal yisroel in galus since the destruction of the second Bais hamikdosh in 70 CE (Means 1952 and not over 2000 years ago like you said) i would have thought klal yisroel would have already woken up from living in denial and done Teshuva to be worthy of the coming of Mashiach and the rebuilding of the 3rd bais Hamikdosh which will IYH be forever and never destroyed.
HOW WRONG I WAS…..
may we be the brave generation to show Hashem that we will be the ones to bring kal yisroel worthy of Mashiach bkarov
