אמר רבי שמעון בן גמליאל: לא היו ימים טובים לישראל כימי ט”ו באב וכיום הכיפורים, שבהן בנות ירושלים יוצאות בכלי לבן שאולין שלא לבייש את מי שאין לו…
1."Fifteen Av" = Gematria 928 comes out "כתיבה וחתימה טובה"
2.From Tu B'Av to the New Year of Creation, the birth of the
world that occurs on the 25th of Elul is 40 days and is called the 40 Days of
conception.
3.On Tu B'Av, special couples and singles are made and the
flaws of פגמי הברית can be corrected.
4.On the 15th of Av, all those who were forbidden to
immigrate to Eretz Israel were stopped and every year on Tisha B'Av, 15,000
Jews from Egypt died of the sin of the spies in the last year of the 40 years
on Tu B'Av. A
day of atonement for the sin of the spies
5.The Sages permitted after many years that the daughters of one
tribe who inherited an inheritance could marry another tribe.
6.On the fifteenth of
Av, Avoda Zara was abolished by two calves laid by Jeroboam ben Nebat in Dan
and Be'er Sheva, and they were able to make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem.
7.On the day of Tu B'Av, the length of the days begins to
shorten and the nights grow longer and those who engage in Torah study enjoy a
great aliyah (Ta'anit 31a). In particular, the Sages warned of Tu B'Av not to
nullify the Torah, In "Between Times," it is clear that the need for
Torah business is growing and growing, and those who receive the benefit of
these hours will receive wages against all of them ...
8.It is worthwhile on Tu B'Av to light a candle for the soul
of the holy tanna Yonatan ben Uziel and to give charity and to read in Chumash
at the beginning of chapter 24 with Targum Yonatan ben Uziel, and if it is
difficult then to read only chapter 24 or only the translation.
9.It's worth saying 18 Zohar ,תיקונים
- choose short corrections that are easy to read in a few minutes
10.It is recommended Daven next to the candle for the soul of Yonatan ben Uziel, to
give charity and to recite ten psalms orתיקון הכללי, as well as איגרת הרמב"ן and to request a request, especially in
matters of holiness, coupling, peace and fertility.
11.It is worthwhile to
say next to candle chapter קכ"א (Tehilim): In the words of “"עזרי he will
ask very strongly that a woman be found to make him rise and help him.
12.Even though every day
and every hour and hour there is a great virtue to talk and tell before the
Creator, blessed be all that we have to thank for a lot of good and to express
sorrow for our distance from Him. On Tu B'Av, the attribute of
"retreat" rises as the Gemara implies (Bava Batra Kaka). "When
the dead of the desert begin to open, the upper ear opens to hear Moshe and
fill every Jew, because her simplicity is fulfilled in every Inish and Anish.
13. It is worth reading on this last Mishnah of Tractate
Ta'anit, "There were no good days for Israel like the fifteenth of Av and
Yom Kippur ..."
14. On this day the daughter repeats and says, "I have
forgiven your words סלחתי כדבריך" forgiveness for the sin of the
golden calf and the sin of the spies.

new fruit on this day or to wear a new garment and to recite the Shehecheyanu
blessing and keep it for this time.
16. It is worthwhile for each person to read in Psalms a
chapter corresponding to his age and next year.
For example, a person at the age of 23 will read the
chapters, כ'ג ,וכ'ד
A person at the age of 36 will read Chapters ל'ו ול'ז,
