Jerusalem has been described by many traditions as the center of the universe. How does the biblical book recounting its destruction talk to and about God and the Jewish People? Does it offer hope for the future? Does its notions of God, Place, and Time work today? What kind of spiritual experience is to be expected through the ritual recitation of the Book of Eichah/Lamentations on Tisha Be'Av? Join this text-based conversation about a particular Jewish frame by registering with Rachel at office@netivotshalom.org!
