Our parashah and haftarah both feature something totally supernatural, other-wordly, and impossible to imagine: God’s revelation! Check out some of the similarities between the two.
Shabbat this week is called Shabbat Hazon, named after the first word in our haftarah. Hazon means “vision.” Our haftarah includes a grim vision of destruction from the prophet Yeshayahu.
The Shabbat between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur has a special name: Shabbat Shuvah. “Shuvah” means “return” or “repent.”
The opening word of our haftarah is—you guessed it—shuvah. The shoresh ש.ו.ב (to turn or repent) comes up quite a few times in the haftarah.
We continue this week with #3 of the seven-part series of comforting haftarot for the weeks after Tisha B’Av. This one features the prophet Yeshayahu promising a wonderful future for the Jewish people.
