"Shaming Women Who Have Abortions Is Not a Jewish Ethic,"
by Jofa Executive Director, Daphne Lazar Price:
jta.org/2022/07/11/opinion/s…
In anticipation of Tish'a B'av (Sun., Aug. 7 this year), and with much gratitude to Rabbanit Bracha Jaffe, Jofa has posted recordings of all 5 chapters of Megillat Eicha, which you can use to learn how to leyn the megillah. Access the recordings here: conta.cc/3IEiq4x
