Achrei Mos
History and Prophecy
From the Haftorah Series

Ezekiel's words of rebuke in Parshas Achrei Mos are so fierce, they are almost on par with the haftoros of the Three Weeks. The sins of the Jewish people range from sexual immorality to miscarriages of justice, and Ezekiel recounts them in scathing detail. The broken society the prophet depicts is frighteningly similar to our own, but within it is the encouraging flip side: everything is purification toward our reaching our full potential.
