Questions for Discussion: The haftarah begins with the people’s sense of having been abandoned by God, while God complains of calling to the people and being ignored. • When in your life might you have ignored or simply failed to see sources of comfort or help? /p> • What solutions and opportunities are we as a society missing? JTS wishes to acknowledge the generosity of the Jewish Publication Society for allowing us to use their translation.
