Tisha B'Av Services - Tonight @ 9 pm @ Congregation Beth Shalom

A Blessing from Rabbi David Wolpe

Tonight is Tisha B'av when we commemorate the destruction of the Temple, the razing of Jerusalem and the exile of the Jewish people. The Talmud declares it is also the day of the Messiah's birth. Before God inflicts the wound, the Rabbis teach, God sends the salve, the healing. May our sadness be soothed, and may we find the glints of redemption in the dark corners of the world.
