B"H
Basically, it says in the Midrash, it says that a lion came in the constellation of Leo, and destroyed Ariel, which is another word for the Beis Hamikdash, or the altar, which it means the lion, because it they had a fire in the image of a lion that came Down to eat the sacrifices on the condition that a lion will come In the constellation of Leo and rebuild Ariel. And the first lion refers to Babylon, which came in this constellation of Leo in the month of Av and destroyed the
Beis Hamikdash which is called a lion on the condition that Hashem who is also Metaphorically called a lion will come and rebuild the Beis Hamikdash which is a like a lion in the same constellation of Leo which is the same type. So from this Then it says that this later house will be greater than the first house. Now there he says that would be that we said earlier that the future has to be greater because it will last forever
And the first two did not last forever. Now there he says okay the fact that Hashem had to destroy the first two in order to rebuild it that means that even If the first Beis Hamikdash would never have been destroyed and even if it would Have been able to exist forever but the third temple will still be greater. It will be a deeper qualitative level of Infinity than the first one. Therefore, that's why we had to have the lion had
To come up and destroy Ariel on the condition that a lion will come back and rebuild the lion in order that it should Be greater than the first even if the first would have had been able to exist Forever. Then the note it connects it
