Description

1) Kinnos - Shifchi Kamayim Leebaich. Lift up your hearts in Tefilla, not your hands! Giving each limb to Hashem, Kinnah from the word 'Kinyin' to Hashem. Not knowing what the Kinnah means is not an issue. 2-3) The Unthinkable comes true. 4) The eating of 'Doeg' ben Yosef. The name of a Rasha has an effect (Chasam Sofer). The 'worries'. Valuing spiritual growth, not physical growth. 5) Finding the Chessed of Hashem within the Darkness. Yosef in the Spice Wagon. 6) The death of Tzadikim. The Asara HaRugai Malchus, the whole world depends on them. Mourning the loss of Torah, the breaking of the Aseres HaDibros. 7) The Son and Daughter of Rebbe Yishmoel. Finding strength in what it means to be a Jew. A Mashal for Geulah. Looking in retrospect
