The Torah commands, “And you shall make for Me a Sanctuary, and I will dwell among them” (Ex. 25:8). For nearly 2,000 years, the Jewish people have mourned the loss of the Holy Temple. But how much does it really mean to us? How much do we really aspire to see it become a reality once again?

He will address these questions, and much more, in a fascinating presentation dedicated to the concept of the Holy Temple—with special emphasis on what it means for this generation.
