Part 1: Nachamu (Comfort)

Aug 17, 2024    Rabbi Ira Brawer

This week, which is Shabbat Nachamu, we begin a new series based on the 7 portions from Isaiah known as the Haftarot of Consolation between Tisha B'Av and Rosh Hashanah that are read during these weeks in all synagogues. These readings are designed to comfort and encourage the Jewish people who were in exile in Babylon. However, they are words that can encourage and comfort us in our times of need and hardship. Anyone relate?
