What happens when a commemoration of an event from thousands of years ago suddenly acquires new and immediate relevance? That was the experience of many Jews in Israel when they fasted last week on the 17th of Tammuz - the day that the Romans breached the walls of Jerusalem about 1950 years ago. Of course, after October 7th, "breaching the walls" has more intense meaning than ever before. Join Pesach and Doug as they catch up on life and world events, but quickly turn to the three week period of mourning Jews are currently honoring, and the ways that it resonates for Jews - and for Christians - as never before.
