Tisha B'Av is a Jewish holiday that commemorates the destruction of the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem, which occurred centuries apart. The holiday falls on the ninth day of the month of Av in the Jewish calendar and is marked with fasting, mourning, and prayer. In Canada, Tisha B'Av is observed by the Jewish community as an opportunity to reflect on the tragedies of the past and the ongoing struggles faced by the Jewish people. Many synagogues and Jewish organizations hold special services and events to mark the occasion. The history of Tisha B'Av in Canada dates back to the arrival of Jewish immigrants in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. These early settlers established synagogues and Jewish institutions across the country, and Tisha B'Av became a regular part of the Jewish calendar. Over time, Tisha B'Av has taken on a broader meaning in Canada, serving as a reminder of the need to confront hatred, prejudice, and violence in all its forms. As a minority community in Canada, Jews have faced discrimination and persecution, and Tisha B'Av provides an opportunity to reflect on these struggles and work towards building a more just and tolerant society. Tisha B'Av is observed on July 26th. Top Tweets for Tisha B'Av -
