(Deuteronomy 6:4)
(Micah 5:2)
The first time the leaders of Israel tried to give away the land of Israel was on the Tisha d'Av--for their lack of obedience in taking the land that G-d gave them, they "wandered" in the desert for 40 years (until that generation died), for listening to the 12 spies' false reports. Something always happens on the Tisha d'Av (this year August 6th at sundown.) The next great event was the destruction of the first Temple on the 9th day of Av. Another event was the destruction of the 2nd Temple on the 9th day of Av; all of the Jews (300,000) that would not convert to Christianity were driven out of Spain on the 9th of Av in the year 1492 C.E. (Americas discovered.) World War I began on the 9th of Av in 1914. The pograms in Russia began shortly after the Bolshevic Revolution (1917); the pograms began on the 9th of Av, in 1918 and set the precedent for murdering thousands of innocent Jews in Europe (especially by the Germans.) There are many other examples throughout history of the significance of the 9th of Av. I hope the Jewish people don't make the mistakes of the past and actually accept the land that the G-d of Jacob has given them (not part of it--that man determines.) Again, this year the 9th of Av in the Hebrew calender occurs at sunset on August 6th. May his people here His Word and accept their inheritance, or suffer the fate of the past.
