- Tisha Ba'av Lecture
and multimedia presentation by "Machon Megalim" [in
Hebrew] at 17:15 on Tisha Ba'av July 26th,
entitled “The good, the bad and the weak”. The presentation
will take us back in time to the last ~50 years before the
destruction of the first temple. Based on biblical,
historical and current archeaological evidence, we will
better understand the characters that played pivotal roles
during the period leading up to the destruction. The plots,
sub-plots, intrigues, prophesies and false prophesies will
be brought to life, allowing us a better understanding of
the “churban habayit”. The presentation will be roughly 1.5
hours in length. All are welcome. Hebrew flier on the Noticeboard.

needed for Rosh Hashana and Succot, including
Kohellet. To volunteer, please contact Rami Shaananai.
