A note from the staff of Kabbalah Online in Tzefat
Spectacularly, this week's Reading contains
both the first paragraph of Judaism's primary prayer, Shema Yisrael
(last article),
AND the repetition of the first formulation of the mitzvahs, The Ten Commandments (articles 3-4). The first two articles are for Tisha B'Av, the major 25 hour fast from Monday sunset to Tuesday nightfall, in recollection of the destruction of the two Holy Temples in Jerusalem. Dedication
and grant us a our portion in Your Torah." May we soon see 9 Av transmuted into a day of holiday and rejoicing. |
