The reading is meant to help listeners more fully feel this moment of sadness. \nIn a year of such loud pain in the Jewish community\, communal moments for grief are uniquely important.\nJoin Rabbi Julia Andelman together with the My Jewish Learning community to find meaning and hope in this cathartic mourning ritual. \n\nIf you’d like to view the text of Eicha ahead of time\, you can look at the full text here. Please note\, the text includes some disturbing imagery.
