Tikkun Kamtza u'Bar Kamtza
Sunday, Jul 22nd 10:30a to 1:00p
The Talmud tells us: "Jerusalem was destroyed because of Kamtza and Bar Kamtza” (Gittin, 55b). It is the story of a man thrown out of a party who then turns his wrath upon the Jewish nation. This year we will bring ritual and the spiritual concept of tikkun (repair) to the story. We will not only study a text but also fully incorporate the story into our souls through a three part tikkun ceremony.
