Helping Christians make sense of their roots. Helping Jews make sense of Jesus.

On this episode of The Jewish Road Podcast:

Did you know that both the First and Second Temples in Jerusalem - central to Jewish faith and history - were destroyed on the exact same day, centuries apart? It's as if time stood still to mark a profound period of loss and mourning for the Jewish people.

To put this in perspective, imagine if another event of the magnitude of September 11th happened again on the same date, but centuries later. The sheer coincidence would be staggering, wouldn't it? This is the reality of Tisha B'Av, a day of deep mourning in Judaism.

But Tisha B'Av is not just about the past, it's also about resilience and hope for a better future. It's a significant piece of the historical puzzle that informs our present faith and influences our shared journey. As followers of Jesus, understanding these roots can give us a richer, more nuanced perspective of our own faith.

Tune in to this episode where we delve into the significance of Tisha B'Av and its relevance for us today, even if you’re not Jewish.
