HOW WILL YOU BE SPENDING YOUR TISHA B'AV?  


Tisha B'Av is on Sunday, July 29... 




Rabbi BrovenderTisha B'Av, the 9th day of the Hebrew month of Av, commemorates the destruction of the 1st and 2nd Temples. It is customary to read classic Jewish liturgy, known as Kinot, as we mourn the loss of the Jewish People.

Join RoshYeshiva Rabbi Chaim Brovender, Rabbi Yehoshua Geller and Rabbi Avi Weinstein together with WebYeshiva.org in a Kinot service and special classes to mark this day.

The Kinot services will be taking place in front of a live audience at Beit Knesset Shir Hadash in Jerusalem, and will also be broadcast live and online. Students in the Jerusalem area are invited to join us in person. 

All sessions are free and are open to WebYeshiva.org students and to the public.

with Rabbi Avi Weinstein
From Jeremiah through to the present day, the blessing and curse of Jewish exceptionalism reverberates throughout the ages.  From the magnificence of Yerushalayim to the wisdom of her population, the question remains, "How does she dwell so bereft and alone?" This class will investigate the Jewish self perception that magnifies the loss of the city and the humiliation of exile."

Rabbi Geller will discuss the book of Eicha (Lamentations), customarily read on the ninth of Av. Eicha tells the tragic story of the destruction of the First Temple. Eicha is not only a story of pain and suffering, but it also grants us insight into how we can take that pain and sadness and use it to grow and better ourselves and our relationships with God.
