description: How much do we really care that after almost 2,000 years the Temple is still in ruins? Would we be willing to lose a little sleep over it to "rise and cry out in the night?" In Jewish tradition, the small hours of the night (Chatzot) are especially propitious for prayer, and thus an appropriate time to contemplate the Jewish exile and yearn for redemption, collective and personal. This book explains the meaning and purpose of Tikkun Chatzot. It also contains the first complete English translation of this moving service, together with detailed guidance as to when and how to say it.
