Tu B’Av and Jewish Love with Gila Fine
About this episode
Why is Tu B’Av—just six days after Tisha B’Av—one of the happiest days in the Jewish calendar?
What do white dresses, vineyard dances, and ancient tribal unity have to teach us today?
Gila Fine, award-winning author of The Madwoman in the Rabbi’s Attic, returns to to Jewish Insights with Justin Pines to explore the mysterious holiday of Tu B’Av. With her signature depth, clarity, and soul, Gila unpacks the surprising origins of Tu B’Av in the Torah, its connection to romantic and spiritual love, and its powerful message for our understanding of love today.
