Boker tov or good morning! I hope everyone had a restful and rejeuvenating Shabbat. This week, Tisha b'Av is observed.

Tisha B'Av
Tisha B’Av is the saddest day on the Jewish calendar, a day of national mourning. On Tisha b’Av, both Temples were destroyed and many other tragic events have occurred on this date as well. Tisha b'Av is a major fast day, a time for mourning as well as a time for reflection and introspection.
