The Haftarah portion for Shabbat Va'era (Ezekiel 28:25 - 29:21) narrated in English by Ronald Guttman.
Questions for Discussion:
God punishes Pharaoh for his hubris in claiming "the Nile is mine, I made it."
• How are we today guilty of similar hubris, treating the natural world as ours to do with as we please, as though we ourselves made it?
