Hi,
"Three sages sitting together said: If anyone knows anything about Kfar Sakhnia in Egypt, let him speak.
[One told of a betrothed couple, taken captive, who refused to touch each other without a halachic marriage. The two others told of their commitment to justice.]
"Abbaye asked Rav Yosef: If they were so righteous, why were they punished?
"Rav Yosef explained: They did not mourn for Jerusalem, as it is written, 'Be glad with Jerusalem and rejoice in her, all who love her; rejoice with her, all who mourn for her.'"
(Talmud, Gittin 57a)
המצפה לישועה,
Mordechai
