Halakhah sur Le Lévitique 26:16

אַף־אֲנִ֞י אֶֽעֱשֶׂה־זֹּ֣את לָכֶ֗ם וְהִפְקַדְתִּ֨י עֲלֵיכֶ֤ם בֶּֽהָלָה֙ אֶת־הַשַּׁחֶ֣פֶת וְאֶת־הַקַּדַּ֔חַת מְכַלּ֥וֹת עֵינַ֖יִם וּמְדִיבֹ֣ת נָ֑פֶשׁ וּזְרַעְתֶּ֤ם לָרִיק֙ זַרְעֲכֶ֔ם וַאֲכָלֻ֖הוּ אֹיְבֵיכֶֽם׃

à mon tour, voici ce que je vous ferai: je susciterai contre vous d’effrayants fléaux, la consomption, la fièvre, qui font languir les yeux et défaillir l’âme; vous sèmerez en vain votre semence, vos ennemis la consommeront.

Gray Matter I

The Ramban, in his commentary to Vayikra (26:16), states that the destruction describes there refers to destruction of the First Temple, and the similar destruction described in Devarim (Chapter 28) alludes to the destruction of the Second Temple. Rav Hershel Schachter (Be'ikvei Hatzon 32:15-16) understands that according to the Ramban, no destruction will occur in Israel subsequent to the destruction of the Second Temple. Rav Schachter notes that the Ramban, in his description of the Second Temple's destruction, focuses on the destruction of the Jewish government, and not on the destruction of the Temple itself. Since what happened then is never supposed to repeat itself, Rav Schachter suggests that the redemption becomes irreversible once a sovereign Jewish state has been established in Eretz Yisrael.
