Yesterday's daf yomi discusses the halachic ramifications of determining the status of fasting and wailing when buildings (walls) fall down in a city. However, the Mishnah is not clear on how many building must fall to be considered a tragedy, thereby declaring the day a public display of mourning. However, the gemera is clear that the building must have been deemed strong in order to call this an aberration. The Ritva (page 20b) asserts that three walls must fall, this is considered a sign of a tragedy.
Three strong boys were taken from Klal Yisroel yesterday. May Hashem avenge the blood of these righteous boys and give comfort to those mourning the loss. |
