The Ninth of Av – Remember the pain, expect the Light

This page was scheduled to be published when the fast begins in Jerusalem, Israel.

The ninth of Av is a day of fasting, remembering the destruction of the two Holy Temples.
During this day, we avoid any comfort or pleasure.
We sit on the floor but not directly on the ground or bare floor. We need a separation between us and the floor. A carpet, a pillow, or a low stool would be okay to separate us from direct contact with the floor that has aspects of the judgment. After mid-day (according to the Hebrew clock), we rise and sit as usual.

“Judah is gone into exile because of affliction, and because of great servitude; she dwelleth among the nations, she findeth no rest; all her pursuers overtook her within the straits
