Kinnos for the Holocaust
The slaughter of six million holy Jews is our own generation’s stark connection to the eternal Tishah B’Av.
Two great and inspiring spiritual leaders of our time, The Bobover Rebbe and Rav Shimon Schwab, composed special Kinnos lamenting and memorializing the unspeakable tragedy of the holocaust. Many shuls and individuals read these painful laments on Tishah B’Av.
Artscroll has made these kinnos, which are excerpted from the new Schottenstein Edition Interlinear Kinnos, available as a free download (PDF).
Gemara for Tisha B’Av
On Tishah B ’Av, it is customary to study the interpersonal conflicts which led to the ruin of the Second Beis HaMikdash (Temple). One well-known source comes from Gemara, Talmud Bavli, Tractate Gittin, pages 55B-56A.
Artscroll has made these pages available as a free download for Tisha B’Av translated in both English (PDF) and Hebrew (PDF).
