sechel: Don’t ask kashas on anything before you learn the whole sugya!!!
Right. And your rebbe did learn the whole sugya, and understood it all based on Torah Or and Toras Chaim. Which explains fully why he said that avodas habirurim is finished and it makes no sense that Mashiach hasn’t come.
You can’t have it both ways! Either it makes sense, and the LR simply couldn’t understand it… resulting in him being mistaken. Or it doesn’t make sense, so don’t quote me Torah Or or Toras Chaim who say, according to you, that it does.
