3 Weeks Tisha B'Av 2024. Tisha b'av 2024 starts on sundown of monday, august 12th ending at sundown on tuesday, august 13, a day of remembrance for jews of the destruction of the first and second temple in jerusalem. This solemn time of mourning is a poignant commemoration of the destruction of the first and second temples in jerusalem.
And while we still yearn for a joyful period, a future brighter than the darkness of today, tisha ba’av provides us with a chance for organized mourning. Tisha b’av is the saddest day in the jewish calendar when we commemorate the destruction of both the first and second temples in jerusalem, as well as other catastrophes which have befallen the jewish people over the millennia and across world, including the holocaust.
