About this episode
Rabbi Jacobson discusses the significance of Yud Beis Tammuz and its lessons for today.
Rabbi Jacobson will discuss the following topics: Yud Beis Tammuz – 99 years: What does this day teach us? What happened on this day and what lessons does it offer us today? Why does the celebration of the Frierdiker Rebbe’s liberation extend for two days – 12-13 Tammuz? Why is this month named after a Babylonian idol? What is the spiritual energy of this month? Is there a connection between the events of this day in 5754 and back in the time of Joshua when the sun was stopped? Is there something special about today, June 21, being the longest day of the year? Why didn’t Joshua simply pray that the enemy be defeated? What is the mission of Chassidim who are not on shlichus?

What lessons does this despicable sin offer us…
