Tisha B’av: A Day of Inspiration
“Let me start by being very clear: I don’t yearn for a return to sacrificial rites, holy priests, or incense-burning in the Temple. I don’t miss the Temple itself, nor is the Western Wall a particular source of inspiration or empowerment for me.”
Today, as we mark Tisha B’av, please take a moment to read an article written by Rabbi Meir Azari on understanding Tisha B’av as a day of inspiration, not solely a day of grief and mourning. The article was published in Ten Minutes of Torah, an online magazine through the Reform Movement. Enjoy!
