Post two:
This is far from the only instance of forceful language used in tanach. In fact regarding the pain of the churban golus, we find the expression in tehillim “Ad mosai yichoref tzor?!”
Apparently there is a whole kinos written which starts off every stanza with ad mosai- until when??
Another point:
We can philosophize and bring proof along the above lines, but on a practical note, if cvs a dear family member is in danger, are you very careful to daven with the proper platitudes along the lines of “Hashem, if it’s OK with You and You’re up to it, please heal me relative. If You don’t want to, I’ll accept that too.”
Or do you scream with pain and say “Hashem, save her! She’s your child!! We deserve better!!” Etc
One may say well, yes we would choose the latter, but that’s because we’re speaking from pain. But with the Geula, we should use proper polite platitudes…
Then that is exactly the issue!! Why should the Shechina being in golus, and the entire Am Yisrael unable to see and experience Hashem in a revealed way, exiled from our Father’s table, matter less to us than an individual yids suffering?? We should all cry out to Hashem Ad mosai?? We want moshiach now!!
