Bechukothai
Jewish Faith and Optimism
From the Haftorah Series

The power of choice is the focus of Jeremiah's prophecy in this Haftorah. Divine reward and punishment follow our own choices of action, both on an individual and national level. Rabbi Wein plumbs the depths of meaning in Jeremiah's metaphors and epigrams, and with a few stories of his own, shows how we become partners with God in the shaping of our own fate.
