Join us for this special episode-part 1 of a 3 part series on the Three Weeks from the 17th of Tammuz to the 9th of Av. This week we look at the Bar Kochba rebellion of the 2nd Century CE. We try to better understand its historical context, what happened, and (as usual with our Toras Chaim theme) what lessons we can draw from the tragedy in Jewish History.
