In our generation one can see and feel that Mashiach "is standing behind our wall." Moreover, that wall already has "windows" and "crevices"; Mashiach is "watching through the windows, peering through the crevices." He is watching and waiting in anticipation: When are we finally going to finish off our sundry outstanding tasks, and complete the final beirur that will refine and elevate the world?

If we do not see him, that is because it is our wall that is standing in the way.
