Tisha B'Av Study: How Do We Weep Now?
Monday, July 15, 2013
7:30 pm - 8:30 pm
In the heat of summer, we pause to remember the burning and destruction of both Temples in Jerusalem. This year we will have a discussion about how we still mourn 2000 years later. Do we still fast since there is a modern State of Israel? Is there anything that makes sense or is relevent or meaningful? What are our hopes for the future? Are there other ways we should mark the day? Come discuss with Rabbi Margaret Frisch Klein, then we will read part of the Book of Lamentations and a lovely, modern story of Tisha B'av by Rabbi Arthur Waskow
