Rebbetzin Tziporah Heller |
| Concluding her series on Megillat Eicha, Rebbetzin Tziporah Heller
discusses the final perek of the megilla. In this chapter, Yirmiyahu
speaks of the helpless, weakened state of the Jewish people under the
ravages of the Churban. He states that it is the destruction of the
Temple, not the physical suffering of the Jews, that is the greatest
source of sorrow. The megilla ends with a plea to Hashem to return His
people to their former glory, for they have suffered enough. This Torah class is available online in streaming video and for download in mp3 and ipod video formats. |

Rabbi Avishai David |
| In this class on the Three Weeks and Tisha B'Av, Rabbi Avishai David discusses the background, content, purpose, and structure of Megillat Eicha. Rabbi David discusses the Tannaic disagreement over whether the Megilla is written as a rebuke or as a lament, and if it was written before or after the actual destruction of Yerushalayim. Rabbi David then reviews the content of each perek of the Megilla, and contrasts Perek Bet, which focuses on the Beit Hamikdash, with Perek Daled, which speaks about the fate of Klal Yisrael. Rabbi David ends this overview with an examination of the hopeful element found throughout the Megilla. This Torah class is available online in streaming video and for download in mp3 and ipod video formats. |
