Meaningful Kinnos

On Tisha B’Av we mourn the destruction of the Beis Hamikdash. The recitation of kinnos is meant to help us grieve over the tragedies that befell the Jewish people at this time. Many of us, however, say the words of the kinnoswithout comprehending their meaning and therefore without truly feeling the sorrow or anguish that the day warrants. This book addresses this issue by explaining the message each kinnahis conveying.

Meaningful Kinnos is based on the shiurim and writings of:

• Rabbi Yisroel Riesman
• Rabbi Jonathan Sacks
• Rabbi Yitzchak Breitowitz
• Rabbi Yaacov Haber
• Rabbi Ahron Lopiansky
• Rabbi Joseph B. Soloveitchik
• Rabbi Jacob J. Shachter
• Rabbi Noach Oelbaum
• Rabbi Dovid Gottlieb
• Rabbi Hershel Schachter
