Al Chomotayich Yerushalayim – Compilation of Prayers and Lamentations – Thirty Days after the Fall of the Old City in the War of Independence
Al Chomotayich Yerushalayim, compilation of prayers and lamentations announced by the Bein Din HaGadol in Jerusalem […] on the 20th of Sivan, 30 days of our intense mourning of the destruction of our Holy City and glory and the burning of the Torah.
