A Jerusalem resident familiar with the Kotel was surprised to find water flowing from the stones in a decidedly pre-Messianic manner. Though the source was mundane, it is cause for retrospection into what the signs preceding Messiah will look like when they actually do appear.
Josh Wander, a resident of the Mount of Olives, frequently prays at the Kotel (the Western Wall). One of his favorite spots is the indoor section to the north of the outdoor plaza. When he went to pray at the holy site on Tuesday, he was surprised to see water flowing in rivulets from between the stones.
“I have seen water dripping before, but this was clearly more than condensation from the cold stones,” Wander told Breaking Israel News.
Tuesday was the 17th of the Hebrew month of Tammuz, a fast day commemorating the day the Roman forces breached the walls of Jerusalem after a long siege in 69 CE. It begins the three-week period of austerity leading up to the Ninth of Av, memorializing the destruction of the Jewish Temples.
“Perhaps the walls were crying for the destruction of the Temple,“ conjectured Wander.
