Length: 1 hour 16 minutes
Synopsis: This morning (8/13/24), I gave my annual kinnos shiur at Shevet Achim (a.k.a. The Island Synagogue), and for the first time ever, I recorded it! I chose this kinnah because it presents itself as being related to tefilah, which has been the focus of my learning all summer. But even a surface-level examination of the text indicates that something strange is going on here. And, as you'll hear, this kinnah is quite appropriate to the Tishah b'Av we are observing in the middle of the war that began with the massacre on October 7th.
