This year, we have organized a unique experience for Tisha Be'av late afternoon!
"The Significance of the Tenth of Av: History & Theology"
As you may recall, in years past, we have been able to screen a special video produced jointly by the OU and YU, offering different inspirational talks. This year, for various reasons, the OU/YU joint video was not produced. However, Rabbi Dr. J.J. Schacter, Professor of Jewish History & Jewish Thought, and Senior Scholar of the YU Center for the Jewish Future, will be delivering a special Tisha Be'av shiur. While this shiur takes place Tisha Be'av morning, and usually is not available to us, by special request, YU has made arrangements to have it recorded and available for us to view in the afternoon. (I want to personally thank Rabbi Rob Shur, and the team at the CJF, for the extra effort which enabled us to benefit from this truly inspiring presentation.)
Please note that Rabbi Schacter shiur's is a little over 90 minutes long, and will be based on sources. We will have handouts with the sources available to you for the shiur, and it will be screened downstairs in the Beit Midrash, beginning Sunday afternoon at 5:20pm. (Mincha will follow at 7:20).Davening Times: 9:00 AM, 2:00 PM & 7:20 PM
