Tisha b’Av – the ninth day of the lunar month of Av – soul and sole. Rebbe Nachman reveals how observing the mitzvos of this day (fasting, not wearing leather shoes) brings a person spiritual repair and helps rebuild the Beis HaMikdash. Text: Likutey Halakhos, Even HaEzer, Yibum 3, Para. 10b. Speaker: Rabbi Nasan Maimon. (Image: Chalitza Shoe, 19th Century.)
00:00 – PARAGRAPH 10b. Ikar chorbon Beish HaMikdash – the Holy Temple was destroyed because the People of Israel disregarded Torah authorities.
07:14 – Nimtza – we are repaired by means of that which caused us to stumble. Because Israel failed in emunas chochomim (faith in true rabbis) our repair is through lowering ourselves through reading Eicha (Lamentations), fasting, and removing our shoes.
