קַדְּשׁוּ־צוֹם֙ קִרְא֣וּ עֲצָרָ֔ה אִסְפ֣וּ זְקֵנִ֗ים כֹּ֚ל יֹשְׁבֵ֣י הָאָ֔רֶץ בֵּ֖ית יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֵיכֶ֑ם וְזַעֲק֖וּ אֶל־יְהוָֽה׃
Ordonnez un jeûne, convoquez une assemblée solennelle. Réunissez les vieillards, tous les habitants du pays dans la maison de l’Éternel, votre Dieu, et criez vers l’Éternel!
Jerusalem Talmud Taanit
HALAKHAH: Rebbi Ze`ira in the name of Rav Jeremiah: He who does work on a public fast-day is like one who does work on the Day of Atonement. What is the reason? Sanctify a fast-day, call an assembly188Joel2:15.. But was it not stated, the night is permitted but the day forbidden189Babli 14a.? Rebbi Ze`ira said, Abba bar Jeremiah190In the Babli 13b: Rav Jeremiah bar Abba. confirmed it; assemble the people191Joel2:16., at the time of the popular assembly.
