Moadei Hashanah:Exile and Consolation- The Three Weeks and Tisha B'Av

The Jewish year is replete with festive- as well as fast days, all reflecting extraordinary events in Jewish history that have left a permanent imprint, and that Jews revisit, year after year, as they journey through time toward their ultimate destiny.The Three Weeks bracketed by fast days highlights a time of destruction and exile. And even though, in the future, this time will transform into a festive occasion, at present, the focus is on mistakes made and the tragedies that occurred.Moadei HaShanah: The Three Weeks and Tishah b Av is a unique collection of essays, especially designed to help readers understand the underlying meaning and proper approach to mourning for the fallen Beis HaMikdash (the Holy Temple) and Jerusalem.The author adds new dimensions to our understanding of suffering; he shows us how to convert the negative into a positive force for personal growth, and offers practical advice on how to make this a more enriching time as we anticipate a hope-filled future.This is the eighth English title to appear in this series, and it is filled with the same power, passion, and profundity that have made these titles so enormously popular around the world.
