 Rabbi Akiva said to them, why do you weep? And they said, a place so holy that it said of it, the stranger approaches it shall die, and now foxes traverse it. Why shouldn't we weep? They said to him, why do you laugh? The Holy of Holies lies in ruins. And he said, I laugh because if the prophecies of Israel's destruction were fulfilled, then the prophecies of the restoration must be fulfilled also.
