Tish'ah BeAv Siddur
The Abecassis Edition
The most mournful day in the Jewish calendar, Tish'ah BeAv, is difficult to relate to in concept and practice. The kinot (mournful liturgical poems) and Megillat Eichah (Lamentations), which represent much of the unique liturgy on this day, is especially confounding. Whenever our cherished liturgy is lost on us, an opportunity arises for On The Derekh. In the case of Tish'ah BeAv, that opportunity cannot be overstated.
An English translation and commentary of the Sephardic prayer service on Tish'ah BeAv ceases to exist. This prayer book will be the first of its kind to serve the greater Sephardic community. It will include all of the communal prayer services of Tish'ah BeAv, as well as all of the kinot and Megillat Eikhah. English instructions will guide the user's practice while the translation and commentary will bring the liturgy to life.
This prayer book is scheduled for release for Tish'ah BeAv 2023.
