    Haftarot: Matot - Masei

    Rabbi Mosheh Lichtenstein

    This lesson compares Yeshayahu and Yirmiyahu's prophecies of calamity. Yeshayahu's main concern is moral corruption, while in Yirmiyahu's time the nation is threatened by its enemies and feels the need for spiritual leadership, and instead of seeking out God and His prophets they choose to turn to idolatry. Yeshayahu deals directly with the nation, while Yirmiyahu's claims mainly target the leadership. Yirmiyahu believes idolatry is a betrayal of God.
