Insights into the Weekly Haftorah - Mattot/Masei

Please Join Our Live Classes @ https://thetrugmans.com/events-ohr-chadash/ More @ https://thetrugmans.com This week's Haftarah is from the second chapter of the Book of Jeremiah, and is one of the three special readings during the Three Weeks, the time period between the fast day of the 17th of Tamuz and the fast day of the 9th of Av. The prophet expresses God's disappointment and anger at Israel's worshiping of idols and the people are warned that continuing to worship idols will lead to exile and destruction. God asks the people rhetorically if they're gods of wood and stone will save them when they cry for salvation.
