Unity on Tisha Be'Av

Today, August 5, 2014 is the holy day of Tisha Be'Av ("the ninth day of the Hebrew month of Av"). Tisha Be'Av commemorates the destruction of the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem and the subsequent exile of the Jews from the Land of Israel. The day also commemorates other tragedies which occurred on the same day, including the Roman massacre of over 100,000 Jews at Betar in 132 CE. Instituted by the rabbis of 2nd-century Palestine, Tisha B'Av is regarded as the saddest day in the Jewish calendar and a day which is destined for tragedy. -more

Our sages tell us that the reason for the destruction of the Temple was " Sinat Chinam " (Hebrew for the baseless hatred and divisiveness that often divides us.)
Interesting to note that THIS Tisha Be'Av we are totally united! -Dry Bones- Israel's Political Comic Strip Since 1973

We are at another turning point in Jewish and world history. The LSW (Long Suffering Wife) and I were pleasantly surprised to see that folks are starting to order Dry Bones Haggadahs as gifts.It's time to pass on our message of Jewish familyhood. That's why we created the Haggadah and it is super to see that so many folks agree. Order as Bar and Bat Mitzvah gifts, wedding or birthday gifts, or "just because."

Check out the Haggadah at our mom and pop store:
