This week’s haftarah marks the three weeks leading up to Tisha B’av and uses Jeremiah’s words to do so, when Israelites are building walls.
Rabbi Ilana Garber offers us her nine ways to make the 9th day of Av meaningful that do not involve fasting.
Tishah Be’av is the saddest day of the Jewish year. We fast, read the Book of Lamentations, and reflect on history.
