The Voice of the Prophet

The Voice of the Prophet


Nitzavim

August 27, 2021

The Haftarah portion for Nitzavim (Isaiah 61:10–63:9) narrated in English by Ronald Guttman.

Questions for Discussion:
The prophet portrays God as reflecting back on a period of God’s own anger, and the damage it caused.
• As we prepare for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, when were you angry in a destructive way, that you now regret?
• Can you make amends and repair what you damaged? How?
• Were there times your anger was productive or necessary?
