"For These Things I Weep" ✡ Stunning Archaeological Evidence of the Second Temple - ISRAEL365

For these things I weep; mine eye, mine eye runneth down with water; because the comforter is far from me, even he that should refresh my soul; my children are desolate, because the enemy has prevailed. Lamentations 1:16 (The Israel Bible™)   עַל-אֵלֶּה אֲנִי בוֹכִיָּה עֵינִי עֵינִי יֹרְדָה מַּיִם--כִּי-רָחַק מִמֶּנִּי מְנַחֵם מֵשִׁיב נַפְשִׁי הָיוּ בָנַי שׁוֹמֵמִים כִּי גָבַר אוֹיֵב איכה א:טז al ay-le a-nee vo-khi-ya ay-nee ay-nee yor-da ma-yim kee ra-khak mi-me-nee m'-na-khaym may-sheev naf-shee ha-yu va-nai sho-may-meem kee ga-var o-yayv

Today's Israel Inspiration On the Jewish calendar, today marks the bitter fast day known as Tisha B'Av, the 9th of Av, the day when the Temples in Jerusalem were destroyed. One may ask, "How does the Temple - or its absence - really affect me?" One way to emotionally connect with the impact of the loss of the Temple is to keep in mind that the Temple was God's house where we were able to relate to His presence up close. With its loss, that incredible feeling of being connected to God is not readily available to us. Our Sages teach that one way to bring God closer is by performing acts of charity and good deeds to those in need. Follow in the footsteps of Colel Chabad and support the poor of Jerusalem.   Bless the poor of Jerusalem » Traditional Tune for Lamentations Cantor Jeffrey Siegel chants the traditional melancholy tune for Chapter 1 of Lamentations ("Eicha"), which is recited on Tisha B'Av (the 9th of Av).   Watch here » Cutting-Edge Multiple Sclerosis Center in Israel a Light Unto the Nations Israel's Grabski Center is the only place in the world which combines the cognitive and physical capabilities of people with MS to slow down the bodily atrophy of those plagued by the disease.   Read more » Cherish Ancient Jerusalem   Tisha B'av is the Jewish day of mourning for the countless calamities that have befallen the Jews throughout history, the most tragic of which was the destruction of the Holy Temple.
