Why Tisha B’Av — and the Current Moment — Are Not the End of the Story
The Tisha B’Av experience is utterly unique. You sit on the floor in the half-dark, your shoes off, your voice cracking through the dirge-like cadences of Eichah, and then you recite — line by line, calamity by calamity And yet, as I went through the Tisha B’Av motions this year, sitting on the floor and reciting the Kinnot, something struck me with unexpected force. This day of mourning — this concentrated distillation of every Jewish tragedy into twenty-five hours of grief and lamentation — carries within it the very antidote to the sorrows it commemorates. Because here is the astonishing thing: we are still here to mourn them, but every enemy catalogued in those Kinnot is gone. Just consider that for a moment. The very fact that there is a Jew in 2026 who can sit on the floor and cry over Jerusalem destroyed by Roman legionaries is itself the punchline to a two-thousand-year-old joke that Rome did not live to hear. Titus is dust. We are not.
