The opening of this shiur, in Rabbi Efrem Goldberg’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

Zev of Davidid. If you haven't been to David, I can't recommend it highly enough. The absolute revelations and miracles of Davidid to be transported back in time. They've now completed. You could walk what they call the pilgrimage road all the way from the mikvah, the pool on the bottom. You could walk up all the way to Harab, the original road. You're walking on the same ground that they walked during the time of the second Ban Mikdash, the same stones. You can even wipe your finger in certain places on the ash of the burning of the destruction of the second Ban Mikdash. In fact, I don't want to get in trouble for saying this, but he gave me a vial of ash so that when I officiate at weddings and the based on the is to put ash on the forehead of the it is actual ash from the burning of the mikdash which in some ways is so sad and tragic and takes us back to that loss which we still feel and in other ways is so hopeful because even as we have access to that ash look how the Jewish people are back in Shalam. I mentioned yesterday in the parishes suffering and struggling through the crazy traffic of we say the empty barren desolate destroyed city Jerusalem and today there's traffic everywhere because the Jews have repopulated after 2,000 years it is holy holy traffic holy traffic anyway but my friend Zevir David when I went to go see him gave me this t-shirt digging with amuna David and on the back of course
