Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory,
For the marriage of the Lamb has come,
and His wife has made herself ready.

DOUBLE PURIM 2022 – a double portion of breakthrough

The festival of Purim commemorates the divinely orchestrated salvation of the Jewish people in the ancient Persian Empire from Haman’s plot “to destroy, kill and annihilate all the Jews, young and old, infants and women, in a single day.” It is celebrated with Megillah readings, gifts of food, charity, feasting, and merriment.

Tisha B’Av

Ninth of Av

Tisha B’Av means Ninth of Av.  Av is the fifth month of the Jewish sacred calendar, which begins with Nisan, the month in which Passover occurs.  The civil calendar begins with Tishri, which is the seventh month of the sacred calendar, in which the Feast of Trumpets, the Day of Atonement, and the Feast of Tabernacles occur.

Tisha B’Av commemorates the destruction of both the first and second temples, as well as other events.  It is the second most solemn fast day in the modern Jewish calendar, after Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement).  It is considered to be the saddest day of the year, a day of misfortune and tragedy.
