The Fast of Gedaliah Part 2: Accepting Chastening - English only
Update: 2025-09-24
Description
The Fast of Gedaliah Part 2: Accepting Chastening - English only. The Fast of Gedaliah is one of the 4 fast days associated with destruction of the Temple. On this day, we remember how we lost our final chance to preserve a national presence in the Promised Land after the first Temple's destruction. The Scriptures explain that there is a reason why God corrects us. It is ultimately for our own good!
This is a rebroadcast of a podcast originally recorded on September 8, 2021. This year, the commemoration of the Fast of Gedaliah begins at sunset on September 24, 2025. It is traditionally observed as a partial fast, meaning we abstain from food and water, only during the daylight hours, from sunrise to sunset.
