A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
"Pinchas" is the weekly reading where
The Five Sisters express their love for the land and the importance for each Jew
of establishing one's inheritance in it.
The first two and last articles embellish this theme. Tuesday, the 17th of Tammuz, is a fast day from sunrise to nightfall. It commemorates the breaching of the walls of Jerusalem and inaugurates the Three Weeks period of semi-mourning. The 6th article offers Kabbalah insights on this 22-day span that culminates on the 9th of Av, the 24 hour fast in memory of the destruction of the Holy Temple (article 7). |
