Tisha B'Av in 2022

Tisha B'Av (Hebrew: תשעה באב) is a day of fasting and mourning to remembers many tragedies that have befallen the Jewish people. The main tragedies are the destruction of the first holy temple in Jerusalem (by the Babylonians in 586 B.C.E.) and the second holy temple (by the Romans in 70 C.E.).

It’s unconscionable that the Israeli government is starting another round of destruction and violence against Palestinians in Gaza — days before Tisha B’Av, when Jews mark the destruction of the Temple and Jewish persecution — all for a political show of force before an election.

We grieve the horrific killing of Palestinians in Gaza by the Israeli military. Now, on this Tisha B’Av, we also watch in rage as the Israeli government allows a racist hate mob of thousands of Israeli settlers and extremists to enter Al Aqsa mosque to terrorize Palestinians. https://t.co/o2rC4saBjT

Thanks, Islamic Jihad, for getting us all in the right mood for Tisha B’Av.

As Tisha b’Av begins, we mourn the destruction of both Temples and the calamities that have befallen the Jewish people. As we recall these events, may we draw strength from our community and from knowing that God is present with us in times of hardship as well as joy. Shavua tov. https://t.co/TD4kzi051T

Tonight begins the fast of Tisha B’Av. May we live to see the time when all things are restored and our mourning is turned to joy (Jeremiah 31:13)! https://t.co/xJTq9u18Bx

Contrary to the string of lies from this so-called media outlet, Israeli worshippers have gathered at the Western Wall for Tisha B'Av prayers. https://t.co/CpUBbNxDIA

Hamas media seems more concerned over Jews visiting the Temple Mount Sunday morning for Tisha B'Av than about Israel bombing Gaza. They might be happy that their rival Islamic Jihad is being decimated.

This week Judaism observes Tisha B’Av (9th of Av) be remembering the destruction of the Temples and other tragedies in Jewish history. Christianity continues in ordinary time. Readings for the week of August 7-13, 2022 (Av 10-16, 5782). https://t.co/FtaCAjNl8b
